360 spin car seat for 1 year where you can carry the seat

Is there such thing as a car seat for a 1 year old where it spins 360 but the seat is easy to detach from the isofix base? I can't find one but they must exist.

Can anyone recommend?

You can get seats where they have a base and detach, but not with a carry handle or attachment for a pram. Because those seats fit up to about age 4, it wouldn't make sense because it would be too unwieldy to carry a 4yo around in one.

What seat have you had for the baby stage? Sometimes theres's a 1y+ one which goes onto the same base whcih would save money.

Cybex cloud t (infant carrier) but my 10month old has got loads of room and should last until she is 2.

It spins 360 but can't forward face it if that's what you mean.

How big is your 1yr old? My DS was on the 90th percentile and outgrew his infant Aton seat by 11 months old. Well we could have possibly stretched to 13 months but he looked squashed and so we upsized to the cybex sirona gi which is 360 and to 4yrs old. It doesn’t do what you ask though it’s not portable.

My friend is still using her infant carrier cybex cloud Z2 for her 18 month old because her girl is quite small. They are going to use it until she’s nearly 2 and they do what you would like it to. They take her out in the infant seat while she sleeps and put it on the pushchair. The cloud z2 also reclines to lie-flat.

All that said it would be a lot of money for <1yrs of use. Then again you might be able to use the base with the next size up seat afterwards to save on some of the cost.
