Coral 360

I’m new to this, FTM for 2 months and to be honest, baby hates the car seat so much I’m glad we didn’t invest too much into it. We bought the Maxi Cosi coral 360, but no Isofix, just secured the car seat with seatbelts, old school style. Our best investment has been the Nuna stroller and (second hand) bassinet attachment. Just in case, I could fit our Maxi Cosi car seat with the stroller but what’s the point? It feels like I’m grocery shopping with our baby

Sorry, recommendation incoming. I had a coral 360 for bub when they are a newborn, moved to a pearl 360 when they outgrew it. Coral 360 is brilliant because you pop the internal insert out of the car seat and can carry the baby wherever you need too. Love it, never regretted it. Initially I started with a cyber eezy twist 2. Good narrow pram, pain if you have two kids to expand. Bought a icandy orange second hand - wide, not as nice to drive BUT, easier to expand for toddler and baby.  What I'm saying is, go to John Lewis, and then have a look at the second hand market. All the icandy stuff can be replaced (wheels, seats, etc) and there's loads out there for £100-£150. If you don't like, you'd be able to sell it on again and try something else. 

We use rotating car seats, so yes unless 3 year old wants to see the world! Baby has a maxi cosi coral 360, 3 year old a cybex sirona z - both are rotating so we turn it towards the door to get to the middle, then rotate back

We had an icandy pram with Maxi Cosi car seat that was on a 360 base.

I have used a Maxi-Cosi 360 of some sort, Cybex cloud z I-size and a sirona (interchangeable on same swivel base) and a seatbelt chomping one too, all on the back seats. For the isofix ones I bought an adapter from Bezos. I don’t put them in the front because they are savages and my front seats are custom upholstered recaros but I much preferred the stability of the isofix adapter.

We have the maxi-cosi rotating seat, which was one of the smaller ones on the market. It's wider than the rotating Graco one that fits into our larger SUV and not as tall. However, the passenger seat is pushed up almost all the way. I can sit there fine at 5'5, but my husband's (5'10) knees would crash into the glove compartment if I have to stop suddenly.

My first 2 used the maxi cosi. It's a very long seat, so even in large sedans and SUVs, the front seat needed to be moved forward to accommodate. I've heard that if you have a smaller car, the front seat is basically unusable with the maxi cosi. What I liked about it is that our car's back seats are "sporty" and are bucket seats. We tried a bunch of other models and none could get the right angle when buckled in. For my third I bought the Clek since it was sale (and different car now), and uses the same stroller adaptors as the maxi cosi. It can also do 3 across the back seats. Haven't tried it yet but heard good things. If you have a snuggle bugs or WCK then you can try out the seats. The biggest deciding factor for us was the seat base and whether the car seat could properly level when installed.
