Quick Question - what car seats do you guys currently have for our toddlers? Bailey is still in the same one from birth, but seems to be getting antsy telling me he is stuck, its too tight etc (I dont actually think it is, but hey, his opinion LOL)
Anyhoo, was going to graduate up to a toddler - 7 yr (26KG) convertible booster later in the year, but I notice Target have the hipod one on sale for $199, down from $349. Seems like a good buy. Wondering if its time to move into one of these - opinions/thoughts please Mummy's
Nay, we just updated, last week, to the baby love ezy combo. I did some research and it came up as better rated, safety wise, than the safe n sound maxi rider. Was 280 (well 265 cos we bought two lol). E loves her new big girl chair. Lots of bb chickpea have raved about it. It can convert fromin built six point clips to seatbelt with H harness, to plain seatbelt, and has the proper guide clip for seatbelt as they get older
I don't recall seeing anything about the hoops on choice website when I was checking safety stuff
We have three different car seats, but they are all Safe N Sound brand ones. We have Kyson in a Maxi Rider. That seat used to be in Bobby's car and in my car Kyson was in an infant/toddler convertible seat (whatever the most expensive one was at the time). Now that we have the bigger car and bub on the way we have put the Maxi Rider in my car. Shayla is in a Compaq infant/toddler convertible seat and she is still rear facing in it. When bub comes along the baby will go in the compaq and Shayla will go (rear facing) in the other one that Kyson used to be in. Did I confuse you yet?
When Stirling got too big for hired capsule, we bought the Baby Love Ezy Combo (same as BG) this year got the best safety rating (although that seems to change year by year :-)) for CJ, and then Stirling went in her old Safe and Sound Compaq Rear Facing.
We have an infa comfy cruiser for DS. DD is still in her smaller seat. Really like the infa.... it's got a fair bit more room for height, it's more slimline and it's a pretty hardy seat. When we bought it, it was rated better than the maxi rider.
I'll have to get another seat for DD soon.... I'll probably just get the same one, but I'll keep my eyes open to see what else is out there.
I think I am going to go with BG & Vic with the Baby Love Ezy Combo - just did some research online and they have one more safety star than the Maxi Rider & the Hipod and are well priced (Baby Bunting sell them here for $259).
Lovely, your opinions helped me know what to look for Think I will get one this weekend
Bella our car seat when Bailz was a baby was pretty mid range, however its been fantastic and I'd have no problem putting our new baby in it. I have however decided to buy the capsule attachment that fits our current pram for use in the first few months as I could never transfer Bailey from pram to car and vice versa without waking him, this way I can just click it out of the car and into the pram
