About Cosco Empire All-in-One Car Seat
Overall Feedback:
85% positive
78% liked the adjustable features, but 22% found it difficult to adjust
The adjustable head support on this car seat is great for my toddler who always falls asleep in the car, which the Finale does not have.
The hooking system is difficult to figure out and seems odd.
80% appreciated the comfortable design, but 20% found it too firm
When my daughter falls asleep in the car, the seat position makes it difficult for her to breathe.
82% praised for its durability, but 18% experienced wear and tear
I deducted a star for the poor latch installation, shoddy reclining, and lack of included shoulder pads. However, I still recommend the car seat if the budget is tight or if it is needed as a spare car seat.
The seat is not safe as it only hooks in the front to the back of the seat which leaves the entire back floppy, and if there is an accident, it could fly up towards the baby.
86% liked the easy-to-clean design
I found it easy to adjust the car seat to fit my daughter and it doesn't take up much space in the car.
I appreciate the removable cup holder of this car seat.
I appreciate the removable cup holder as it is a convenient feature for cleaning and using the car seat.
85% found it easy to install, while 15% struggled with the straps
Installing the car seat with two bottom clips in the back and the top middle clip was very easy.
I purchased the car seat for my granddaughter but without instructions, I am not sure if I will be able to install it.
76% praised for its advanced safety features, while 24% had concerns about the installation
The adjustable head support on this car seat is great for my toddler who always falls asleep in the car, unlike the previous car seat (Finale).
I am concerned about the safety of the seat as it is impossible to get it tight enough to prevent it from flying up towards the baby in the event of an accident.
When I fall asleep in the car, the seat practically chokes me, so it's not safe.
83% appreciated the size and weight, but 17% found it too heavy
The car seat is slightly bigger and heavier than the Finale but not by much. The additional 3 pounds in weight and larger dimensions are worth it.
I compared the size and weight of this car seat with the Cosco Finale and found that it is slightly bigger and heavier, but not by much.
As a newborn, I would be slouching down in the car seat due to its size.
