Car seats

Hi all, does anyone have the ikkle bubba 360 spin, if so does it recline in backward facing position?
Same question as above but with the Joie 360 spin please?

The Ickle Bubba 360 seat is only allowed to be used in the reclined position when it's rear facing. I also wouldn't recommend it in general, it's tricky to use which means there's a high chance of fitting it incorrectly which is a problem. It's also quite cheaply made and not as high quality as the Joie seat. You tend to find this unfortunately with most of the "all stages" ones.

The Joie 360 Spin has a choice of both upright and reclined positions for both rear facing and forward facing use. It's a good option for the price.

If you want more in depth recommendations I'd be happy to help if you can share the age/weight/height of your little one :)

Hi there we bought the Joie 360, but our boy is only 3 months, but a big 3 months he looks rather squashed in the new born bit and his head goes all over the place! I took the wedge out to see if it made a difference but he's too scrunched up now! 🙄

No, you want to keep the wedge in. Probably what you want to do is take the head piece off and keep the other two inserts in. This is quite a useful guide that isn't in the booklet for whatever reason.

Hope it's not too blurry to read.

Thank you, so is the wedge in there too underneath the highlighted bits in the picture?

Sorry I have only just seen this - yes the wedge is the last piece to be removed. When you're using either the head and body, or just the body piece the wedge is to stay in.

I have bought the Ickle Bubba Stomp Urban pram, I contacted Ickle Bubba to see what car seats are compatible with the pram. They have said the ‘Maxi-cosi CabrioFix’ is compatible with the universal adapters. My question is can anyone confirm? I have found two car seats which I late both labelled Maxi-cosi CabrioFix and I’m not sure which one is the right one. I’m really stuck and would appreciate any advice.

They will both fit, so will anything newer by Maxi Cosi, Cybex, Joie, Britax, or Nuna.

You don't need to stick religiously to the lists :)

It's only the 0-15 month ones with the carry handle that go onto prams. The ones that last several years and stay in the car don't go onto adapters.
