[/caption]I was choosing a car seat by the German ADAC tests again:
Cybex Pallas 2-fix is the safest car seat in the category of 9 to 36 kg (1 to 12 years). I was thinking about getting something less universal, but I wasn't impressed by the results in the category of 9 to 18 kg.
As for the baby stroller, I was choosing between Cybex Topaz, Babywelt Moon Buggy Flac, I'coo Pluto, Hartan Buggy I-go and Maclaren Techno XLR. I'coo Pluto was my second best choice, but I didn't really want to buy any additional accessories. Cybex Topaz 2011 comes with a great sun canopy (unlike older versions of this baby stroller) and with a rain cover. It is not the most lightweight baby stroller, but weights only 7,5 kg. It was a great compromise for me between weight, comfort, functionality and price.
I didn't save much when purchasing in Germany. According to Yandex Market the lowest price for Cybex Pallas 2-Fix and Cybex Topaz is 11'000 + 8'100 = 19'100 RUR. This price may not include shipping.
It costed me less then 17'000 RUR when purchasing at KidsRoom. Note that you won't get any warranty in Russia on items purchased in Germany. Also note that purchasing 2 items at KidsRoom instead of just one allowed me to save on shipping.
KidsRoom.de is not the only web-site recommended by Russian shoppers.
There are several other baby shops in Germany that ship to Russia directly and exclude VAT, namely: maxis-babywelt.de, babyshop.de, kidscomfort.eu, Loopoo.de, PingPong Online.
I'm happy with my purchase. Will it be worth for you to buy car seats and baby strollers in Germany from Russia?
The first power-folding stroller out there, the Origami collapses with a push of a button -- it reminded us of a Transformer. A sensor tracks when baby's in the seat, so you don't have to worry about the stroller folding unexpectedly, and it has lights on the bottom for when you're out at night. The LCD screen tells you how fast you're pushing the stroller, how far you've walked and the temperature.
