Non matching car seat/Pram

Clartylou · Jan 2nd, 2009, 11:06 AM

Has anyone bought a different car seat to the pram? H and I went into the shops today and have decided on the Silver Cross 3D jet sport pram system, but the car seat is separate and costs £100. We won't be attaching the car seat to the frame of the pram, so do it really matter if we go for a different and hopefully cheaper car seat?

We have. We've gone for maxi cosi car seat and mutsy buggy. We've also ordered adapters so we can use car seat on the chassis if we need to.

We have a pram that was never used from our daughter but we used the car seat and it is trashed now so now I have to buy one that at least matches a bit LOL

We have a mamas and papas pliko in Geo, which is a greyish colour with a light blue pattern, and our car seat is a dark blue brittax one which i picked up for £15 from a second hand store.

Thanks girls. Am looking into seats now. The matching silver cross car seat is £100, so we'd need to find one cheaper than that lol.

It doesn't matter if you are not going to be using it as a travel system. We have the Micralite Toro Newborn so will be buying the Maxi Cosi Cabriofix with Isofix base and just these two are going to cost 200 pounds!! but DH seems happy with that which is great but we are only getting this one as we want to be able to have the option to use it on the pushchair frame. Go with what you want, thats all that matters, take care
