Pssst... have you ever done it?
The blogs are hopping about renting car seats, and the consensus seems to be: if you have any choice in the matter, never rent a car seat.
Parents report receiving old, dirty, and potentially unsafe car seats when they have rented infant and toddler seats from rental car companies. And we're not just talking about an isolated incident, or one rental company.
Click here, here and here for stories from parents and former rental company workers that will make you want to scream and never let go of your car seat again.
Okay, so we're all agreed that you could be risking your child's safety by renting a car seat from a rental car company (I'm sure some of their seats are safe, but I don't think I'll ever trust one again after reading these stories).
But what about taxis?
I've never taken a taxi with my daughter, but I'm curious about whether taxi companies provide car seats (I assume some must), who installs them, and what condition the seats are in. I tend to think that the situation would be similar to rental cars, but maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised!
What has been your experience?
