Hi there,
I bought a 2 in 1 Travel system from Nappies for less in Pukekohe, which is a Baby Online store. They have agreed to refund my money because it is the same situation as yours. The seatbelts DO NOT fit over the carseat correctly. I am annoyed because I now have to look for an alternative for my one week old Grandson, however, we have managed to hire a Carseat for his first six months from Baby Factory for only $50 and my daughter in law was given a brand new Carseat for 6 months onwards, so I'm happy....and now all I need to get is a pram....I am very skeptical about Skep Products now, especially after reading some of the reviews, and have opted to get a Pram which is on special at Baby Factory instead. You must insist on getting a refund, as long as the seat has not been used,you are entitled to it...Best of Luck...]]> Wed, 23 Oct 2013 12:49:33 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33005&PID=5851724&title=skep-convertible-carseats#5851724 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33005&PID=1003510&title=skep-convertible-carseats#1003510 Author: Renee & Lauren

yeah I know I hope they agree to take it back and give us a refund (we are happy to pay for postage) back to them.. BUT because plunket can't write anything down to say that it is unsafe for a baby under 7mths I may not get anywhere with it. But I have emailed the company and will just have to wait and see what they say - don't really want to onsell it to anyone else as from what plunket said they don't work even forward facing as too much movement.]]> Thu, 22 Apr 2010 11:43:51 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33005&PID=1003510&title=skep-convertible-carseats#1003510 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33005&PID=1003182&title=skep-convertible-carseats#1003182 Author: Mamma2N

I hope they come to the party and let you return it! Just mention that it is false advertising as it clearly can't be used from birth!

If you're looking for a inexpensive carseat, the Cosco Scenera retails for around $200, although it regularly goes on sale at The Warehouse for about $140. Baby on the Move and Repco also stock it. Just be sure to check the expiry date if buying from Repco or The Warehouse as if it's been sitting for a year or two you can bargain down the price with them BOTM you shouldn't have to worry about though. They Rear-face to 16kgs which sees alot of children through to about 2 years, some longer.

Hope it gets sorted for you quickly ]]> Wed, 21 Apr 2010 22:17:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33005&PID=1003182&title=skep-convertible-carseats#1003182 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33005&PID=1003169&title=skep-convertible-carseats#1003169 Author: NovemberMum

Hi all

Just wanted to warn anyone looking at buying a skep convertible carseat from babyonline that not to buy the following carseat. The reason is that I took it to Plunket today after receiving it to get them to help me put it in correctly rearfacing and it does not recline enough for a newborn baby. The babies head would flop down and would seriously hurt their head. I am now trying to get the company to take it back.
