Capsule - Car to pram?

[sweetpea678]

I brought the safensound unity and profile pram for my third bub, even though I had a reversiable care seat. I absolute love it. was the best thing, as my bub is not very big at 14 months she is still in it and if she is asleep i can just snap it onto the pram and not disturbe her.

My cost in total around the $600 mark for both the pram and car capsule.

I just saw one of these pram/capsule systems on the Kerrie Ann show this morning. They didn't say the prices, but they were made by Chicco. Maybe google Chicco for more info.

Safe n Sound do a travel system. I have the unity capsule which is awesome! I can have DD2 fall asleep in the car and then just carry her inside. She also falls asleep in the capsule when we are out and I can carry her sleeping back into the car for the trip home.

I had a similar one for DD1 and she was in the capsule until 12 months as they are rated to 12kg from memory. DD2 will probably be in hers until then too as I am in no rush to turn her.

Also the resale value on eBay for the travel systems with the unity capsules are pretty good so even if you do spend a bit you can sell it further down the track.

Thanks Tril! I didnt know either - DH changed his mind last week! lol

So they arent cheap then! Thanks girls, think I will go and have a look at them.
Can you get a foot board for the pram for a toddler aswell?

They aren't all expensive.

I have a fisher price one from Target. They have changed the branding and it is now hipod or something like that. I think it was about $300 for the capsule and maybe $180 for the stroller. Although they have them on sale regularly and I think I got both for about $400.

Target also sell a steelcraft one. I think it is steelcraft cruiser. Like the strider, but not as expensive. I think that one was a bit more expensive.

I found it such an excellent system. Especially after a friend told me about walking around the shopping centre for an hour because her baby was asleep in the pram. I could easily move bub from car to stroller to home.

[Doing my best]

the steelcraft profile stroller is normally about $250 - $300 at most baby stores and they are designed for the capsule. Target often has the capsule on sale from $300 down to $200 or cheaper.

If this wasn't my last one, I would buy the stroller cause I already have a similar one that Ilove as a 2nd pram.
