Wasn't sure where the correct place to put this was.... sorry if its wrong.
I have a couple of q's for you if you do have one of these capsules?? Apart from the higher sides, are there any differences between the normal one and the high sided one?? Are they easy to seatbelt into the car? How do they fit into the stroller, do i need to buy fittings?? Do you wish you had brought a capsule with a base instead?? DH's parents brought us a convertible carseat for DD (we borrowed a capsule from friends but its expired now) which we planned on using this time but they have just offered to buy us a capsule if we want one, the only reason we weren't planning on using a capsule this time is because we don't have the $$ and the carseat we have will do. ------------- J - born 26th April 2008 and L - born 3rd Sept 2010 http://alterna-tickers.com">

We have the HS. I love it, I found it awkward to put in the car the first few times, but now it takes me a whole 3 seconds to put in the car. It fits in pretty much every car we've had to out it in, in DH's hyundai work van its a pretty tight fit, but with a bit of wriggling we can get the seatbelt done up and he ain't going anywhere 
I really, really wanted a capsule with a base (considering i live in southland, DS is 2 weeks old and its winter) but it hasn't been too bad actually. I don't regret not getting one with a base at all. I know to fit in the P&T strollers, you have to buy a travel system, which is about $30? or so. I didn't think that was too bad. But I wasn't too worried about buying it, cos I know me, and probably 2 of my cousins will use the travel system + capsule. It might seem a bit of a waste if you don't know anyone else who could use it though?? I think the high sides are the only differences between the HS and the normal one. But I figured for a extra $10 or whatever it was, might as well get the HS one... |

We had one and found it really good. Took all of about 10 seconds (after some practice) to put in car and I liked the fact we could put it in either of our cars easily.
We hired some snap n go wheels from baby on the move. I think it cost about $50 for six months. We took them everywhere. And so good to be able to move DD without waking her. The wheels are really light too. -------------

I have a bebe hs and totally love it,
For about a month we had a different capsule, and it was so heavy and hard to put in the car, with being a first time mum it felt really stressful but the bebe is a breeze....... we also brought the P and T stroller as well as we plan on trying for number two in december so we have the travel system adaptor and find that also awesome to use easy as to move bubs from the car to the stroller.... Highly recommend it! -------------
