Joie - I-Spin 360

The car seat I got was the Joie iSpin 360. Used it since birth and she's been amazing in it. I've driven over 1000 miles with her and she rarely fusses. The best advice I got was to really think of you need to have the car seat for pram option. You might have thought it through which is why you are asking but just throwing it out there. My LO is 10 months now, and when I was pregnant I realised that the only use of the car is either to Tesco, hikes or long drives (200+ miles). At all destinations I would use the baby carrier or have the pram in the car. Honestly I rarely used the pram (I got a hand down from family), maybe one a week at most when she was a newborn and would be in the bassinet option. The seat is meant to last to 4, but I expect I'll hopefully have my second child before then who can use this seat and I'll upgrade to an older seat option.

Thanks it’s the joie 360 I-spin. You can’t take it out of the car but I think it should fit newborn. Yes the carrycot is a bassinet pram attachment (the joie ramble XL which attaches to the joie finiti). The pram already lies flat but baby would need to wear a harness. So bonus of carrycot is it could be carried into house and baby stay sleeping without a time limit (I think) - but we already have a Moses basket and a next to me crib which collapses for travel … I was trying not to overbuy stuff but seems we are possibly heading that way 😅

Okay thanks - I got the joie ispin 360 given the good which? review it got (5/5 stars rearward facing isize) There are different options for the bundles, but I think we would go for the joie I-level - though this is actually worse safety score than the ispin. I was originally thinking britax romer baby safe core as it is compatible, the belted set up scores highly but with the base its safety isn’t as high. Not sure how annoying it would be belting each time though so will look at some of the others you mention for compatibility with joie finiti

Meillä on molemmilla lapsilla Joie iSpin 360. On erittäin kätevä, mahdollisuus kääntää istuinta on ihan pakollinen. Syvyyssuunnassa saisi olla säätövaraa enemmän, toisella pojista on selvästi pidemmät jalat kuin toisella (ovat siis kaksosia) ja tämä pitkäkoipinen ei mahdu olemaan enää selkä menosuuntaan. Ikää 4 vuotta ja painoa alle 15 kg, olisi hyvä vielä olla selin.

No kun ei mahdu tuossa istuimessa. Säädöt on tapissa ja pojalla on polvet suussa. En tiedä vaikuttaako myös auton penkin muoto.

I also have the Joie Ispin 360 and its a great seat. My daughter has used it from 7 months. She's now 2 1/2 years and will last her for another couple. It's rear facing and forward (from mine 15 months but I did longer) uses an isofix connection (different model of car seats use different isofix bases by the way). Also it spins so helps getting them in and out of the car.

We’ve just bought the Joie I-spin 360 and it’s great!

Our firstborn (already toddler) had the exact same problem. Our choices were Joye mytrax pro for a stroller and i-spin 360 for car seat. To be fair the choice of the same manufacturer was unintentional, we just tried out a bunch of seats and strollers.

Agree! Love this seat.

Second this, I really like it and it did very well in safety tests.

We've been very pleased with our joie ispin 360 so we bought another one for baby 2. Spinning is really helpful for getting kids in and out easily - don't write it off.

The Besafe Stretch is excellent for extended rear facing. The Joie ispin is great and very handy but only goes up to 18kg

We swapped to the joie ispin when baba was about 4 weeks old. (The bucket seat we got with our travel system just wasn't doing it for me) I love it. Installed correctly, its completely stable, my boy is 1 now and 99th centile. I cant imagine having to wrangle him into a car seat that doesnt have the spin feature
