Following I’m in the same boat
Look on very as they have them as low as 65£ and you can choose a payment plan that works for you. As Mikaela has said it's not worth the risk buying second hand just in case someone is lying about whether it's been in an accident.
We have the joie every stage in grandparents car, rear faces to 105cm / 22kg x
@Mikaela do all the 360 ones only last up until a certain age? Another mum mentioned something about this to me previously. That’s why we bought the silver cross I size for our car as not keen on having to buy another one when they turn, our car seat is from 15 months up to 12 years old x
They say about 4 but that's based on height/weight being the same as most 4 year olds. The 15 month to 12 year ones don't typically rearward face I believe, and the longer rearward facing ones tend to be a bit more expensive but it depends how you feel about staying rearward facing as long as possible.
@Mikaela thank you for your help x
I just wouldn't take the risk with a secondhand at all personally unless it's from someone I know well. People can swear it's not been in an accident but be lying to recoup money. The Joie Spin 360 comes up for £99 quite often in Tesco. It can be used up to 18kg/105cm. We have one in one of our cars and are planning to pick up one for a grandparent soon. My LO is 13.5kg/90ishcm but growth has slowed right down so should last us a while but depends on the child really.
