Car seat help


Was so annoyed with Mamas and Papas and the way they delivered the car seat, we've been really good customers and even when I rang customer services and said that I had wasted a whole £10 credit being on hold for so long, so asked if they could ring back.. the lady said "well, it will be much much later" in a snooty voice.. They haven't bothered replying to my e-mail either.. shit service. *If you didn't read my previous thread, the car seat was delivered unpacked, open and unprotected*

Anyway, that car seat is going back as we're not happy at all so we are looking for a new car seat, any ideas???

Or, any of you know a good one for peugeot 206 as the other one we got wasn't a great fit.

Ty

I know theres a difference in the cars but I have a 307 & we have this for Chris 2 year old



Its from approx 9 months (20lb) to 4 years... Its fab. Feels really secure. Eleanor is Comfortable travelling in it & you can remove the cover and wash it. Bonus

Maxi cosis are so easy to fit - get in and out of the car too

Ours is one that fits to pram also it amazed me how quick and easy it could be used in car where as Ive seen people taking AGES to get car seat in and out before! The one above looks like the one we will upgrade to when needed!

Thanks

Babybean - thats so weird, of all the car seats lol, we were just looking at that one to buy.

About the mamas and papas one - when we fit it the other day it was really wobbling side to side, so I don't think we fit it properly (I was reading on Maxi Cosi's site about how to fit them and id imagine they all follow similar fitting guidelines). We put the seat belt through the red clips on both sides, but I think you're only meant to put it through on the side nearest the seat belt buckle? so we're going to try tomorrow morning and see how secure it is.
If it is secure, we will be sending it back anyway as it was so badly packaged, but do you think it's worth re-ordering the same or going for that Maxi Cosi one??? I know it's more expensive, but you can't put a price on your little ones safety can you.

Wobbles - We had the mamas and papas primo viaggo (we're still using it for the time being, until it's replaced) and have always been thoroughly happy with it. It was part of the travel system and makes things so much easier - just clip in and go.
