Yes, I think I put the wrong subject, I wanted recommendations for the baby car seat.
Council chuckouts
Not always a great idea. If the car seat has been in any accident, you’re not meant to use them again. Lot of the time, it’s hard to tell just by looking at them
If the car seat has been in an accident you can tell. Lot of mystical thinking around car seats.
We have this one (i think?). It's very good, easy enough to use, not too bad to clean
https://www.babybunting.com.au/britax-safe-n-sound-millenia-…Yes it is over $300, but i'm of the opinion that I didn't want to penny pinch on the car seat. We bought a cheapy (but nice looking) cot, Ikea high chair, kmart clothes, used pram, but we weren't willing to compromise on the safety features of the car seat
You should get premium pro then
We have the Millenia one too. It is a big unit (in a medium sized car).
OP also check out the Graphene in the Britax range. But best recommendation is go to Baby Bunting or similar and try a few in your car, especially rear facing these seats are huge and you might not be able to sit in front of one (front passenger too close to the airbag).
These are also listed on eBay (through proper sellers) although it seems an eternity since a 20% off code was swirling around.
Oh yeah, actually mine is the Graphene one. It is big but it isn't a big problem, even in my i30. You won't be fitting any NBA players in your passenger seat though…
Go talk to a person in kidsafe, then buy it from baby bunting or else where.
Make sure it fits in your car.are you in Sydney?

A lot of factors to consider other than just the seat itself. I use the Britax Millenia for my son and while I/wife and son love it, I would say you need to make sure it suits your vehicle.
Eg. Milenia costs a lot more than others, but our car has ISOFIX too such that I wanted it for easy installation/removal. No point paying for a seat with features you won't use.
Plus I drive the KIA Sportage and we have him rearward facing in the middle seat of the rear. His headrest extends quite some way into the gap between the two front seats such that if we had the seat on the side, the front passenger would need to move the seat forward quite a large amount.
check out infasecure too.
they have a number of seats which is 0-8yo, which I think its great. you will need to use only 1 seat in the life time of your child.
Yes I do recommend.
In fact it's a legal requirement.
