It’s big and bulky, so it doesn’t fit easily into all cars and that makes it difficult to install it properly. Installation – Although this uses LATCH installation, installing this car seat is real challenge.Your child could potentially grow above the limits of these seats before they’re actually ready to transition. When a car seat claims this my initial reaction is to get a bit apprehensive, this seat definitely has the potential, but it doesn’t really follow through on the height and weight limits. The Only One – The idea that this seat can be used from infant until booster is a huge bonus in terms of saving money as well as time in not having to go out and start searching for the perfect seat all over again.It does not recline far back enough without a towel under the seat to help it, nor does the extra infant insert on the inside provide proper head and neck support. However, this recline totally falls short. 3-position recline – Recline is a good feature and necessary for infants in the rear-facing position.They also have armrests that pivot and cup holders installed for the older kids using these seats. Cushioning – This seat does have really nice and soft cushioning, with a good quality fabric that your child will feel comfortable in.This seat has a limit of 50lbs forward facing though, unlike the usual 65lbs you may be used to seeing with LATCH. LATCH – LATCH installation is pretty standard these days.Harness – The harness is easily adjusted from the front by using their QuickFit harness system to adjust the height without needing to rethread everything.Side impact protection – Safety 1st meets or exceeds all Federal and ASTM Safety Standards with superior side impact protection to support your child in the event of a crash.What are the Pros of the Evenflo Symphony?
Height limit: 19-36in rear-facing, 34-45in forward-facing, 43-52in booster.Weight limits: 5-35lbs rear-facing, 22-50lbs forward-facing, 40-110lbs booster.Orientation: forward-facing, rear-facing, and booster.On to the review for now though, and we’ll come back to the installation in a minute. When you talk to someone who’s installed a few car seats in their lifetime and you mention the Safety 1 st Alpha Omega Elite, you may see a look of, “Oh no…really? You bought THAT car seat?” Don’t get me wrong, if you are up to the challenge of installing a car seat, and then not moving it until absolutely necessary then this seat may be for you, because it really can be a safe seat, it’s just got a little quirk as some may call it. However, this seat has some serious mixed reviews. It has a weight range from 5-100 pounds which should accommodate you’re little one basically from their grand entrance into the world until they no longer are in need of a car seat. As the name suggests, Alpha Omega, Alpha being the 1 st letter of the Greek alphabet and Omega being the last, this car seat is designed to be the only seat you will ever need. They have a ton of car seats to choose from, as well as strollers, play-pins, and other travel and safety gear. Safety 1 st as a brand has got a lot of stuff going on.
