Baby Capsule - What one?

Just wanted some help on what kind of newborn Capsule to get.

We want to buy one and I am thinking of either getting an

Evenflow Portabout 5 Capsule with Base. Has anyone used this before if so what are the good and bad points of this type?

OR

Bebe - Phil and Teds newborn Capsule. This I like because it can match our Phil and Ted Buggy that we plan to buy it is also much lighter than other capsules when empty. I am not too familiar with this one and wondered has anyone used one of these and why is it good or bad?

Thanks for your help!!

I've just done a lot of 'research' on baby Capules and ended up getting the Baby Trend Capsule with base (it has the triangle on the top, good grip on the handle). It looked more comfortable than some and I also liked the colour. I liked the Bill and Teds one also but to me it seemed so much smaller than the other ones. I would also recommend getting the Snap n Go Wheels (either Hire or Buy) - great if you need to go shopping for 15mns or so. Its amazing how heavy the capsules can get especially as the baby gets bigger!

I'm glad we didn't buy one as our chub chub grew out of it at 4 and a half months!

i hried from pulket was so much easyer as when james grew out ofit i just gave it back to them

Hey I don't know if it's any good or not but I saw some capsules in the Warehouse today that can be used up to 13kg rear facing (around 1 year). They meet all the safety standards etc. and are only $149 so might be worth checking out?

Well I've laybyed the Evenflo Portabout 5 capsule with base after kasbee's recommendation and after playing around them all them all today.

I like that it was lighter than the others we picked up (didn't try the Phil and Ted's though) and I really liked the base. We are getting ours from Winkalotts so it's $150.00 compared to $200.00 which I was pretty happy about too!

if u r on a tight bugett u can apply for a cheap but new chair from pulket all u have to do is get a referal letter from your midwife and take to pulket car seat hire the seat costs$20.20 cents for six months and the same every six months after hope this helps

One thing to keep in mind when getting a capsule for your first baby is how many children are you going to have? You may be better buying an ex rental from Baby Factory for $75 and then at least you own it....and will have one for when baby 2 comes along (and one less expense as you will not need to hire one again).

Also, I really recommend hiring the Snap n Go wheels...I use them all the time. Certainly saves having to carry the capsule around everywhere.

how long is baby in a capsule for?

mine were never in one. I just had a car seat from birth.
