How easy is this seat to adjust the harness? I have a Evenflo Triumph in my car that has spoiled me with the knobs in the front for easy adjustment. I'll probably be giving my mil this seat b.c my nephew has the same seat so she knows how to adjust everything and the new seat will go in my car. I seem to have to adjust the harness everytime I put him in the seat so I want to make sure it's easy to tighten or loosen. Thanks!

Why not just buy another Triumph Advance? They are about the same price, and the AOE is a piece of junk IMO.

Personally, I HATE this seat with a passion. I got mine about three months ago and I am now saving up so that I can get rid of it. I would get the one you have since you are already used to it and you seem to like it.

- we have the alpha omega elite for dd. its really easy to adjust as she gets taller. we are also able to get a really tight install using the tether and latch system. we had a good install with a seatbelt in our old car but with the car that we have now we have the latch and tether. i would love to get her the graco nautilus eventually though.

I went on and got him another ETA. They were on sale at Toys-r-hell. *sry I can't stand that place* It was supposed to be close to $150 after taxes and everything. I got it for $105 after taxes so I couldn't pass that up! Thanks tho!

I am thrilled for you that you DID NOT get the AOE. We have one in my husband's truck because it is truly the only seat that will fit well. WE HATE THE AOE! I absolutely HATE it. Worst baby purchase we have made, but we only use it for brief, random trips. We have the Britax Boulevard in my car and could not be happier with a car seat!
I'm really glad that you got the better seat and that you saved so much money! congrats!
