Sonus 65

We have the evenflo sonus, believe it fits them just a smidge longer than the cosco seat. Also has a head pad which makes it a bit comfier I think!

We just bought the Evenflo Sonus as it has a higher forward facing height and weight limit! It does seem bigger than the Cosco Scenera but it’s also light.

I have an Evenflo Sonus (this is similar to the titan) for travel and a Graco Triogrow for our car. The Triogrow is by far an easier install. The clicktight mechanism is very easy to use and I always feel confident about the install. It works front facing with my car, which doesn’t have removable head rests so if you are using it with a variety of cars it would likely be compatible (some forward facing car seats can only work with removable head rests). Downsides are that it’s very heavy and that it’s not particularly compact front to back (especially for a baby or younger toddler where you would want it more inclined). The Sonus is super light and easy to transport, but a pain to install. It takes me so long to install it and I don’t always feel particularly confident about my install, even when it took so long. If you don’t mind carrying a heavy AF car seat after ubering, I would get the Triogrow.

Totally! We had a few misses too before we decided it wasn't worth it to take the gamble. We bought a cheap/lightweight car seat to have on hand for travel and a carrying bag. I liked to install it in the plane seat to keep my kids contained on the flight anyway so that eliminated the baggage handling issue. We had a Cosco Scenera and Evenflo Sonus but this was a couple of years ago so I bet there are newer cooler options now.

We used the Evenflo Sonus and it nestled into our Ergobaby Metro plus stroller (also secured it with a luggage strap). We flew with it (took both car seat & stroller on board), took trains, taxis & uber. The combo worked really well for us!
