Maxi-Cosi - Pebble 360

Baby is three months. I’ve only attached the car seat to our chassis twice - baby doesn’t like the car seat enough to be happy in it for long and especially with winter coming we’re happy she’s cosy in her bassinet! We have the maxi cosy pebble 360 - we really like the 360 feature to turn her to get her out of the car and if we need to get to her from within the car, if that makes sense. TBH there’s only so much research you can do, we realised we just needed to pick something as we wouldn’t really know what we liked or disliked until we were using it in real life, and anything we disliked we’d just make do with until baby needs an upgrade - hence I’m counting down the days till we can justify upgrading her travel system (bought the bulky travel system on Facebook marketplace and now know exactly what I do and don’t want without having committed hundreds of pounds!)

I’m not sure stroller compatible + 360 + used lasts while toddler exists. We went for the first two of those three. We got the maxi-cosi pebble 360 with the isofix base. It not only swivels but also pulls out towards you to make it extra easy to access. We then got the extra adapters for the silver cross wave and could use them together. Was really nice when he was younger to be able to buckle him in while in the house and then just lock the entire seat in instead of me having to bend over post c-section to strap him in. We’ll need a different seat once my son is over 13kg but it uses the same isofix base.

Rotating is CHEFS KISS a must !! We got the maxi Cosi pebble 360 ! Baby can even lay down to sleep!! It's perfect

FWIW we've just upgraded to Avionaut Stardust, which does have a separate insert to make it suitable from birth and should last her ERF til 6 then becomes a HBB. *However* - it has been handy on occasion to bring baby into the house in her car seat, which just isn't really possible with the multi-stage ones as they're too heavy. NB we were using Maxi Cosi Pebble with 360base (very handy!!)

first time mom here too, but I thought I’ll share my thoughts. My sister told me to get a baby cot pram second hand and after 6 ish months move to a small foldable stroller and get car seat separately as she could not be bothered with bulky and heavy travel system. I didn’t listen and last week bought maxi-cosi oxford plus with pebble 360 car seat and base. I don’t plan on using car that much, maybe once or twice a week for bigger shopping and I want to be able to just put the car seat on the frame for when I just pop out to the shop. My boot is fairly small but the frame folds flat and is not that heavy to lift in and out. Overall I hope it was a good decision 🤣 but I was lucky to be visiting family in Netherlands and visited quite a few baby shops where I’ve tried plenty of prams on display and got to fold, lift and inspect them thoroughly

We have the Maxi Così Pebble 360 with the rotating base. Pros: baby likes it, one of the most reclinabile ones, the rotating and sliding option are really nice Cons: expensive and super heavy. But I don’t mind that it’s heavy as I just leave it in the car and transfer my baby in the stroller or bassinet!

Depends on the seat I suppose, but they have tested ours which is the Maxi Cosi pebble 360. A quick loo, Joie ispin safe and Cybex Cloud Z2 too.

We have a base for the carseat but we made sure that the bigger seats also fit so we can use it for the first 4 years and get better use out of it. I do love my maxi Cosi pebble 360 😍

Agree with both comments above - we haven’t attached our car seat to the pram at all in 8 months, we used the bassinet / stroller instead and this is much better for the baby as well (they really shouldn’t be in the car seat too long, especially when newborn). We have the maxi cosi pebble 360 - we like it as a car seat and the spin is helpful.

We had a Nuna Pipa Urbn which was great at first as its easy to use and clip into vehicles BUT we ended up having to send it back as it put our LO in a really awkward position and would cause her into the chin to chest position which isn’t safe at all. We had numerous communications with Nuna to try different positions and they were great, but we couldn’t resolve it so they gave us a refund. We now have the Maxi-cosí pebble which has been great as it has 3 reclining positions and is easy to install into other cars with the seatbelt and it only takes a few minutes. Check the attachments as a lot of brands use the same attachments so even though we had the nuna pram the maxi-cosí car seat still attached using the nuna pipa urbn attachment. Good luck and congratulations for June

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.

We had a Maxi-Cosi infant seat and moved him to the Graco Extend2fit at about 8 months. He had started to hate the bucket seat and I got it on a good sale. He was instantly happy! He just turned 2 and still loves his seat. It can rear face until 50lbs so that was one of the reasons we went with it. We eventually got one for my husband's car (had a Cosco Scenera before)

Agree with this! Our infant seat is MC and I got it for $280 during a sale a couple years ago. So price and the fact that the seat was light were big selling features. Our daughter (and our arms lol) were happier when we switched her to a convertible seat around 6 months. We went with Clek Fllo for that... liked it so much we bought another for baby#2 due in a couple months. But definitely agree that the screaming is a sign that baby is either over the infant seat and/or they are making their opinions on car rides known now that they're leaving the potato stage lol.
