The Best Omega Elite Information Is Found Here

First of all, I have not used this seat rearfacing ever. I purchased it once my daughter outgrew the seat that was part of a travel system. I love this carseat, and she does as well. I was recently rearended and pushed into another car (at high speed) and my daughter was ok, not a mark on her. I am going to buy her the same seat again now. The old one still looks perfecty fine (we’ve had it for 2 yrs) but after the wreck I am of course replacing it. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is that the latch system hooks on this model (which are the same for the Graco Nautilus) are just very basic hooks and one of them bent soon after we got the seat and is somewhat of a hassle to remove. So, for forward facing use in only one car, where you are not inteding to switch the seat out a lot, it’s a great choice in my opinion. One more note: when I first bought the seat, I thought I could use the recline for making her more comfortable on long rides to sleep but it is not to be used forward facing, unless you need to recline it to level it correctly.

I really hate this car seat. It takes up way too much room. The only place we could fit it rear-facing and securely was behind the passenger seat. To do so we had to shove the passenger seat all the way forward so that means there is no room any longer for a front passenger. And even then the seat isn’t reclined as much as the indicator says it should be (almost but not quite). I would have never purchased this seat. My mother bought it without consulting me and I used it because I’m broke. I have an incredibly small car and this is the worst seat for it. If I had an Escalade maybe there would be room. This thing is HUGE. Besides that it’s difficult to get the baby in and out and adjust the straps. There is just nothing good about this thing.

This is a really nice carseat. My daughter seems really comfortable in it. It is a little bit of a tight fit in my Mitsubishi Lancer, but it fits great in my husband’s Nissan Titan. Easy to install with LATCH system. Color is nice.

I bought this seat for my granddaughter to be installed in my car when we have her. Installation went pretty smooth and there are many adjustments to get it just right for her. As she grows it’s pretty easy to make changes with the harness without having to remove the seat, Bottom line-good quaulity, well thought out,glad we have it.

My wife and I loved this car seat, so she put it on the registry. I read a lot of the reviews here about it being too big in a lot of cars for the rear-seating configuration. I’m an average sized guy, and have a BMW X5, so I thought there would be more than enough room to recline the baby seat to the level position necessary for the rearward configuration in the middle seat. Even with the rear seats of the car fully back and with the front seats forward a couple of inches (already not the best for me driving), it still didn’t fit. It’ll fit on the rear passenger side with the front seat cranked forward quite a ways, but we want to put the baby seat in the middle, not on the sides. So I guess we’ll use our Graco traveler seat until the baby is big enough to use this in the forward position. Kinda defeats the purpose of getting a 3 in 1 in the first place.
