Has anybody used / seen the Vibe being used with the Maxi Cosi attachment? Does it still seat a toddler in addition to the baby?


I assumed it didn't so discounted it (presumably heavier child would have to go in back seat which your not supposed to do) thought it worth checking though :-)

Thanks

I seem to recall on the dash that you don't have to put the main seat back/flat for the maxi cosi because it sits above the frame a bit. If same goes for the vibe, technically you could fit the doubles seat on the back. But like you said, I'm sure there's 'rules' and issues of balance. If you were in a pinch however...
Having had a chat to the lady in mothercare it would seem the maxi cosi only fits on the new Vibe frame (not our 2009 one). It would also seem if you use the maxi cosi you can't use the doubles kit underneath due to uneven weight distribution. So all in all it's great if you've just got the baby with you but if you're with the toddler and baby the cocoon and doubles kit seems the way to go.

Thanks so much for that Princess. I though that was the case from what I could find online, wasn't at all obvious though so I wasn't sure.


I do have the 2010 frame but sounds a bit pointless if it then only seats one child, I will only have a 15 onth age gap so my eldest will more than likely be with us - no nursery etc.


Did you happen to notice how big (and expensive) the adapter was whilst at Mothercare? I seem to remember it being around the ?25 mark and quite large in which case it doesn't sound like the most practical buy...... bubba will just have to wake up when he gets in and out the car ;-)

    • I sometimes don't feel as comfortable as I did but it's not because I'm older, it's because I'm sober. Staggering home when I was younger I always felt I like a had a cloak of invisibility around me. And a magic compass - not even sure how I found my way home some nights. 
    • I'm London born and bred and have always considered myself streetwise having grown up in Notting hill (pre getrification) and I lived on the border of Harlesden (kensal green) in the 90's  when it was pretty sketchy round there .and I spent much of the 80's and early 90's in downtown New York.. I would walk everywhere at all hours of the day and night and never felt particularly uneasy largely because I was always mindful of my surroundings and walked with 'purpose'. I don't know wether its because I'm now so much older but I don't feel as comfortable as I used to walking round London. Today I was in the West end and I made sure to carry my bag on the opposite arm to that facing the kerb and felt uneasy when I saw people wizzing around on limebikes or scooters close to the kerb..I never got my phone out at all...I never used to feel like this but just recently I've had friends witness phone and bag snatching in central london in broad daylight..apparently it happened so fast in both instances there was nothing anyone could do to help..One phone snatching was during the tube strike 7.30am two guys on bikes grabbed a mans phone..My friend took the victim to a nearby hotel to sit down and recover the hotel said due to the tube strike they had witnessed many duo's of youth out very early on bikes aware that there were more pedestrians around at that time with their phones out trying for Ubers or looking at directions. I would'nt say I feel 'unsafe' I just feel more aware of being a possible target for crime than formerly. I don't know if this is due to being older or due to reading the press.
    • The fact everyone has had a CCTV camera in their pockets for the last 15+ years has done a huge amount to prevent and mitigate random drunken violence.  Thugs can't get away with what they used to anymore.
