Safety 1st Alpha Omega Elite Review Summary

Looking for a car seat that is both economical and safe? Reviewers recommend checking out the Safety 1st Alpha Omega Elite Car Seat as “the best choice where there is no need to buy a different seat as they grow.” Designed to fit children from 5-100 pounds, the safety 1st Alpha Omega Elite can be used rear-facing, forward-facing and as a belt positioning booster seat, which is “a great deal for the price.” While baby is growing, the harness straps are easily adjusted by pulling the levers and sliding the back up or down. Comfort wise, the Safety 1st Alpha Omega Elite has “lots of padding” and “the material is super soft, nice a cozy.” Since the Safety 1st Alpha Omega Elite is a bulky seat, it does take quite a bit to get it installed correctly and securely, but once installed, it is as safe as can be. Compare the Safety 1st Alpha Omega Elite to other car seats on the market by reading what parents have to say in more car seat reviews.

 The Alpha Car Seat is a great purchase. I did a lot of comparison shopping and loved the value and safety. It's super convenient to use, when it's cold outside and she has more clothes on, it's easy to adjust the straps, and when we loose the jacket it's just as easy to tighten again. I love the angle... review »

This car seat is Ok. It is great for safety other than the fact that you have to adjust the straps quite often because they become loose. Other than that I love the suede because it makes it easy to take out and clean.  My daughter is most of the time quite comfortable other than the fact that she... review »

I have four children and have used a lot of different carseats. I wish I had gotten the Evenflow Alpha Omega when they were infants. This is by Far the best seat we have ever had. It is easily adjusted to accomodate a smaller child, (maybe a guest in your car.) It is cushiony, has a nice cup holder, and is an easily wiped not real absorbant fabric. I love the type of buckles they use on the anchor and latch, they are adjusted easily as well. Lot's of extra cushioning comes with the alpha omega for an infant. I just Love this seat, and our son is going to sit in it forever, it goes from 5 up to... review »

I bought this carseat to use in my husbands truck as well as to use as a spare for if we rode in someone else's vehicle.  I love the fact that it is 5-100 lbs,  I haven't found another (affordable) car seat with that range.  The straps are easy to adjust without any rethreading.  It is very cushioned and my daughter seems quite comfortable in it.  The downside is that it is very hard to install correctly and securly.  My husband and I struggled with it, but finally got it secure.  I have since decided to leave it in his truck and use my (Graco) as the spare, much easier to install.

I have compared many carseats.  This has to be the best choice where there is no need to buy different seats  as they grow.  5 to 100 lbs.  works from infant to toddler.  Very easy to adjust without having to remove the straps as they grow.  Works great for me as I have my 15 month old nephew and a 4 month old grandson, so I can use for both boys without having to take out the straps and adjust.  Padded well, removed drink holder, rear and front facing.  Awesome carseat.

 The Alpha Omega Elite has been a wonderful car seat for my girls. I have two them one for each of my girls and I love how easy it is to adjust to the next level. There is no need to change the straps or anything. You just have to raise the back up by pushing in on two red levers so it makes it the easiest to adjust. I have used it as a rear facing carseat, a forward facing, and now a booster seat. It is wonderful that there was no need for me to keep buying a new car seat everytime my kids were ready for the next level all I had to do was adjust this one which was super easy. It is very easy... review »

This carseat is the best one on the market! It is convertable so it is the only carseat you will ever need! It has lots of padding to keep the child comfortable. It has a cup holder that attaches to the side to hold a sippy cup or whatever. I highly recommend this carseat to anyone with small children or someone that is expecting!

My Husband and I were looking for a great car seat for both our 1year and 3 year old. Safety 1st Alpha was one of the only car seats we looked at because it was side impact crash tested. I drive a 4 door small car so my children are by the car doors. I needed something something safe, reliable, comfortable, and most importanty affordable. My children love the car seats  and fall asleep alost everytime they are seated in them. The Alpha car seat is easy to adjust to the right size and comfort for my kids. The only negative thing I have to say about the car seat it that it is a little bit hard...

We were so suprised when we found out that we were going to be grandparents.  Then of course the lovely economy came around, and suddenly we were a newly extended family all living under one roof.  Well, mommy to be wanted a specific car seat/travelers system for her vehicle.  So bought that.  Not happy as it was for only the first year.  Weight limit and size.  Yada yada.  So time for comparision shopping.  Safety 1st was rated fantastically around the world by all kinds of shoppers.  Then i started looking at their options.  Finally found what i was looking for in this car seat.  It...

We bought this car seat because our son has outgrown the infant seat at nine months. We shopped around and tested a few out in the stores to see how he would fit, and comfort for him, and the ease of getting him in and out of the seat. I had done a lot of research online and decided that it would be the most beneficial to get a convertable car seat. I had finally decided to splurge and get him the Alpha Omega Elite car seat. Now granted its not the cheapest but when you are looking out for your child's safety, price shouldn't be too much of a factor...granted it has some play in the decision though!...

I absolutely love this car seat!  I had been looking for a car seat for some time and finally stumbled upon this one, the reviews were great and the price was right!  It is a little hard to set up the first time you use it ( if you use it rear facing first) because you have to readjust the straps, but any time you use it after that its as simple as it gets.  I love how easy it is to adjust the straps when your little one gets taller ( instead of having to take the straps all the way out every time to adjust the height, all you have to do is pull the red bars in and up and BAM its adjusted!!!) ...

The Alpha Omega Elite car seat is great! I love that it converts from infant, to toddler, to booster seat.  We will be using these seats up to the 100lbs limit!  They are easy to install, look great too!
I love the cup holder feature.
They are a bit difficult to disassemble to wash the covers. But I could do it myself.
They fit great in our mini-van. It's a bit tighter fit in our car, but doable.
Great seat for a family on a budget. I feel my children are safe, and we didn't break the bank to do so!
Overall a great seat, highly recommended.

The saftey 1st all in one carseat is an all around good carseat. I moved my son from his infant carseat into this one ad love it. The only complaint I have about it is the cushion on the bottom/back squishes down and gets bunched up on his lower back. I would reccpmend this to anyone looking to not have to be buying a new seat every year.

I shopped around quite a bit before settling on this seat for my son once he turned 1. He was a big baby and was ready weight-wise for this style of seat before his first birthday, but we chose to wait to be safe. This seat has all the bells and whistles you would want for your child- cup holders, moveable armrests, a head cushion. My son seems to love it and is comfortable in it. The straps are easily adjustable, if you need to make them either longer or shorter. While the pricepoint on the Alpha Omega Convertable seat is a little higher than most, it can take your child from birth right up until...
