Another car seat question

[mjsmummy]

we have a safe n sound maxi for DS#1 & it reclines to 2 positions & go's from 9kg right throught to 26kgs so as soon as you have returned the capsule bub can go into it.
They can be a bit expensive but if you are hiring a capsule then at least you have time to save or put one on layby at least

Have the Safe n Sound Maxi Rider, goes to 26kgs. It is awesome but about $400

YIKES, $400.00 is a little steep. Will have to see if I can find a slightly less expensive alternative. More around the $200-300 mark.

Does anybody know much about the Infa Secur? Optimus? I have seen it on the BigW site for $278. It goes from 8-18kg as a car seat, and from 14-26kg as a booster.

Come to think of it that is the one we have for Sarah. I like it. what do you want to know about it?

[sunshine_sieben]

Oh cool Alioops! Just want to know whether it's a good seat. I don't want to just buy the cheapest (like last time lol). But I also don't want to spend up big just to get revolving cup holders. My car has a centre console thingy on the back seat which has cup holders anyway. An she can reach them from her seat.

I might have to go and have a look at it.

Oh, and do you know what the difference between the Trek 8 and the Optimus is? I saw the Trek 8 for $249 BNIB on ebay. They have a shop near me.

ETA: Sorry, I have since googled it and it seems they are the same thing, it's just called differently at BigW. I might get it from the store nearby, as it comes with a sunshade thingy and seat protector mat and is still cheaper than the BigW version...
