Can someone give me an opinion about Bugaboo Turtle Air by Nuna Car Seat ?

Personally I wouldn’t buy it. Not because of the seat itself as I don’t know anything about it but it sounds as tho it’s now at least a 3rd hand car seat and you don’t know it’s full history

There’s no way I’d buy a car seat without knowing the full history. I would only take one from a family member or a very close friend who I trusted with my child’s life. You might trust your friend, but you have no idea where it’s come from before that. If it has ever been in any kind of accident, or even if it has been incorrectly handled/cleaned with chemicals that could damage the integrity etc, anything like that could impact the safety of the seat. It’s also not a great brand anyway, even if new. What is your budget? There are plenty of good seats that you can get brand new that won’t break the bank, but I wouldn’t touch this if I were you

@Nadiya I wonder why the previous owner sold it. Apparently for my friend it can’t be installed in her car since she has an old Audi and it’s not compatible. She’s not a close friend but she thought of asking me before she puts it on Facebook marketplace.

@Daria many people do, can flog everything and anything on FB marketplace🤣 car seats and mattresses are things you should always buy brand new x

Nuna car seats are know for terrible chin to chest so personally I would avoid that brand

Not the best fit for a newborn, wouldn’t recommend really as it can put baby in a dangerous position until they’re a bit bigger!

I would check out 'car seat safety UK' on Facebook. They will give you good recommendations. If you are dead set on second hand then know your history and check the date on it as they al have expiry dates!

It looks like it’s an older model aswell as we had the bugaboo turtle air by Nuna and mine is no where near this shape and looked so much different so I’d check when it was made and how many years nuna recommend they’re used by. Also what does she mean it won’t go in her older Audi? We had a 2008 a3 and it went in fine? We had to belt it rather than isofix but it was still in securely

Friend had it and exchanged it fast, baby was so squashed in it.... I wouldn't get it

Geeez guys thank you so much for all of your responses❤️this is super helpful , I won’t be getting it, I’ll do further research for other seats Xxx

@Danielle thanks so much. I’m not sure what’s the budget, we want to get a safe and comfortable seat but without going crazy 😵‍💫anything you could recommend? Thanks a million xxx

@Danielle you’re the greatest ! Will join them, thank you so much Xx

I looked at this - they all had awful reviews about babies being scrunched up and their chins on their chests. We have a Nuna Arra though which reclines in the car which was important to us as we drive between London and Manchester a lot. It’s overwhelming with all the choice but you’ll find the one that suits you eventually

Never buy a car seat second hand unless u know the person really well who used it previously
