Buying Second-hand Child Car Seats

Don't compromise on safety

If you are thinking about buying second hand, here are some things you will need to consider:

  • Make sure that nothing is missing or broken.
  • Don't buy anything that you even suspect might have been involved in an accident.
  • The fitting instructions are essential.
  • Buying from family or friends is a good idea because you'll know the history.
  • We can't recommend car boot sales, free ads and other sources where you don't know the vendor.
