2nd Car seat Recommendation

I am going to need to get Christopher a convertible car seat for DHs and ILs cars in a few months and I wanted to start some research now. I have the Roundabout but I dont want to spend another $600 for car seats.

Can anyone recommend some reasonably priced good car seats?

Also Does anyone know the baby bargains website with reviews/ratings?

Thanks!

I have an Evenflo Triumph and we love it...we also have the Titan in the grandparents cars, but I don't love it as much

We have Evenflo Triumphs in my mom's car, and Costco Alpha Omega Elite's in DH's car. Both were rated really well by Consumer Reports. What I like about the Cosco seats is that they eventually convert into a booster seat, so that's the last seat we need to buy for DH's car.

Re: 2nd Car seat Recommendation

We have the Evenflo Triumph Advance DX. The baby bargain book said it was one of the best in crash test, draw back...the harness adjustment knob is difficult to reach when seat is rear facing. Not a problem for us since we use it in DHs jeep and we have to put him in out through the back hatch, so its right there for us.

ETA: DS loves the seat.
