Cosco Juvenile Alpha Omega Elite

Pros: Fully padded, 5-point, adjustable harness, LATCH system-equipped, grows WITH child!!!

Cons: Hard to remove infant head support, installation

The Bottom Line: Purchase ONE car seat that will last you through the years!!! Start using it at 5 lbs and continue using it through 100 lbs!

Review: After our son got too big for the carrying car seat, it was time for us to begin the hunt for the next stage in seats. But where do we begin... there are so many types at a wide range of prices. After checking out seats at 5 different stores, we...

Pros: Good safety features, cost efficient, easy to use.

Cons: Straps get twisted easily.

The Bottom Line: I would recommend this car seat as it is a safe place to ride and is comfortable.

Review: At about one year of age, my daughter had outgrown her original car seat and it was necessary for us to upgrade. We looked at many different models and decided on Cosco Juvenile Alpha Omega Convertible 22-150. We used the Internet to educate...

Pros: Competitive price, comfortable for toddlers

Cons: twisting straps, not the best choice for young infants

The Bottom Line: Consider other options, such as an Evenflo or Britax. The car seat looks great for the price, but you get what you pay for!

Review: You certainly get what you pay for with the Costco Alpha Omega Elite, and in this case it has been tons of aggravation! We were attracted to this seat because it looked nice and comfortable, the price was affordable, and it was recommended by...

Pros: Has all features for all ages

Cons: Pinches even a small baby's legs.

The Bottom Line: I would not recommend this car seat because it can cause daily injury (though minor) to a child.

Review: Our experience
We recently were in an accident and needed to replace our car seat. Since our daughter was still under 20 lb, we decided to look for one that could be used both rear-facing and forward-facing so that she would not grow...

Pros: Easy to install, great customer service.

Cons: False advertising, won t fit most newborns, outgrown at 2.5-3 y/o.

The Bottom Line: Not recommended. There are other seats that are a much better value for your money.

Review: The bottom line: Not recommended. There are other seats that are a much better value for your money.

We purchased this when my son was 4 months old. At this age, he fit nicely into it. We had to stop using the AOE when he was 2.5 years old,...

Pros: NO PRO

Cons: JUST DONT PURCHASE

Review: From day 1 this car seat was hard to buckle. We have to literally stand up and push as hard as we can to get it to buckle. When you get it buckled the part that latches into the buckle is so wide it digs into my sons legs. Its a wast of money you...

Pros: The pros are the carseat has easy to adjust straps.

Cons: I haven't found a con yet!

Review: We have three children in car seats. None of which we have converted to using a shoulder strap. We have never had any previously mentioned problems with pinching or difficulty installing the seat. As my youngest is out growing the infant carrier we...

Pros: 5-100 lbs, comfortable seat, straps easy to adjust, Safe

Cons: the cup holder is in a bad place

The Bottom Line: I would recommend this seat it is worth it!

Review: This car seat is great, the weight range is 5 to 100 lbs. First is can be used as a rear facing infant seat. Then you can turn it around and use the 5 point harness. Then when your child gets too big for that you can use this car seat with the lap...

Pros: Delivers on it's safety.

Cons: Nothing at all bad to say.

Review: My 18 month old son was in this seat when we were hit from behind by a car going 60 mph. My neck and back were injured and my wrist broken. My car was pretty badly smashed up. My son was completely injury free, not so much as a headache. I can not...

Pros: Everything about this seat is a "Pro!"
The latch system, buckles, saftey, comfort.

Cons: Sorry, but I cannot write anything for "Cons" for this seat.

Review:

We have had this car seat for 3.5 yrs now since my son was born.
2 weeks ago I was in a terrible accident where a drunk driver ran a stop sign and rolled my truck 3 times having it land on the roof.
My son, in the center of the back seat...
