First child; very picky of our purchases of the baby equipment; had to match other pieces and had to be fashionable! HA HA Not again! I am glad several of my baby pieces matched. The highchair, the baby seat, the diaper bag - all Eddie Bauer. ...

Pros: - convertible - grows with your child 5-100 lbs
Cons: - harness rethreading after washing seat cover - takes up a lot of space

I purchased this seat in 2005 and we've had a great relationship ever since. My children are now 1 and 3 years old and while I did opt for the slightly less expensive ALPHA OMEGA ELITE (in BELLA, so cute in pink and chocolate) for the second child, I ...

Cons: Puzzle buckle hard to buckle, cover hard to remove for washing, tether hard to thread

Pros: Nice design, easy to load and unload kid
Cons: hard to disassemble for laundering

Pros: Nice looking thats about it
Cons: Crotch strap too small, not secure

When I bought this car seat I thought it would be good considering everything else I have that is Eddie Bauer is good. I was wrong; the crotch strap is way too short , I have no idea how this seat could go up to 100 pounds. I have a chunky baby. It took ...

Pros: Ease of use; stylish; comfy for baby; good price
Cons: Very wide in seat; tough to clean

We purchased this car seat for a great price when our daughter outgrew her infant carrier at about eleven months old. We originally installed it rear facing and our lil' one seemed very comfy in it. After she turned one we kept it rear facing for a ...

Cons: Cover may be hard to take on and off to wash.

We bought this for my son when he was 3 months old. He screamed ALL the time in his bucket car seat. We rarely left the house because I could not handle the crying. As soon as we started using this car seat, the screaming was cut by at least fifty ...

Cons: not the easiest to disassemble for cleaning, confusing harness for newer users

Pros: Great for babies that have outgrown infant carriers, easy to adjust straps, comfey for baby
Cons: Large seat, not recommended for babies that are small enough for infant carrier carseats

This seat is very comfortable for an older baby and I think it was unfairly rated. Do not put a young infant that cannot sit up as it does not recline as much as an infant carrier carseat. My son outgrew his carrier type infant carseat at about 7 ...

Pros: Comfortable for the child, easy to adjust.
Cons: Cumbersome when backwards facing, and hard to wash

I have 18 month old twins and we purchased these when they still needed to be backwards facings. They were pretty large and hard to put in. Also I drive a station wagon and my husband was not able to push his seat back at all when these were installed ...

Pros: Comfortable and material wears well.
Cons: Plastic piece of child restraint cracked off from the sun weakening it.

Pros: Easy to remove and wash the cover.
Cons: Not suitable for infants who don't have good control of their necks.

My husband and I decided to purchase this car seat in lieu of the infant carrier car seats because we figured that our boys (7 month old twins) wouldn't grow out of them as quickly. It made perfect sense to us - a car seat that they would use until they ...
