When I tried the Evenflow Triumph 5 I found it would not fit in rear facing mode due to a large **** that allows for fast tightening of the straps.

Really heavy too. It does look safe and is well priced for sure but it won't work for me

And the Consumer Reports didn't give the Cosco Alpha/Omega very good ratings. Feel like I'm running out of options and will buy the admittedly way too expensive Britax Roundabout.

Strange Peg Prego doesn't make a second stage seat. I really like their newborn one. Oh well.

Thanks to all who responded...hopefully it helps other future parents as well. Cheers :smile:
