OK ignore my ramblings from further up in this topic... I went back into the Baby Factory and they rent out 3 times before selling the capsules off as ex-rentals ($75 to buy... dunno if they're all the same price or not), and it'll work out cheaper for us to buy one of these.  It's worth going into the shop to ask what they've got, if you're not sure you'll be buying a brand new one.  Seems safer than buying one off an unknown family, like on Trade Me or something, as you don't know if they've been in an accident, and they probably haven't been professionally cleaned.  ]]> Wed, 13 Sep 2006 14:46:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=71455&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#71455 <![CDATA[Hiring Capsules in CHCH : oh and if anyone interested I...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=71045&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#71045 Author: Bombshell

oh and if anyone interested I saw an ex rental one in baby factory in rotorua this weekend for $75 - a good buy if anyone looking?
Have also just spent the weekend with a friend who has a 6 week old - we put pod in car with pram type wheels and never used it once except as a car seat - she went and bought a sling from BF and loved it and kept using that. At home she uses her stroller but ran out of room to put it in the car...]]> Sun, 10 Sep 2006 19:14:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=71045&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#71045 <![CDATA[Hiring Capsules in CHCH : I agree about it working out cheaper...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=70611&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#70611 Author: Andie

I agree about it working out cheaper in the long run to buy one, depending on how many kids you plan on having and how much you pay for the capsule.  Being a bit skint on pinga's these days though, we're hiring!!  Baby Factory here charges $60 rental for 6 months, and $45 refundable bond, but what I like about them is that they rent each capsule out twice, then get rid of it, so you know it hasn't been round 12 families already, and they cover professional cleaning of it after each rental, so you kow it's been cleaned good'n'proper.  ]]> Thu, 07 Sep 2006 13:18:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=70611&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#70611 <![CDATA[Hiring Capsules in CHCH : If you are going to have more...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=70597&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#70597 Author: mummy_becks

If you are going to have more children it can work out cheaper to buy one. We got ours for $149 in a Farmers sale and used it with Andrew and will use it with this one and in between those 2 my friend borrowed it for her baby. If you have friends or family that are thinking of having children then they could borrow it off you.]]> Thu, 07 Sep 2006 10:32:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=70597&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#70597 <![CDATA[Hiring Capsules in CHCH : baby factory is expensive.... for...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=70595&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#70595 Author: Kazzle

the baby factory hire out and do bookings - best if you can go in person as they like to take details there and then and add you into the book - its $50 deposit and then i think $30 for six months. It is the pod with the base, and you get a choice of which ones. Not too sure if they hire out the pushchair type frame for the pods though....
Plunket also do the hires - are apparently much cheaper not sure about their deposit but they hire out all kinds of car seats up to boosters.]]> Wed, 06 Sep 2006 19:59:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=70536&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#70536 <![CDATA[Hiring Capsules in CHCH : we didnt hire one, I brought one...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=70447&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#70447 Author: my2angels

we didnt hire one, I brought one off trade me that had only been used for 6 mths, still had box and receipts plus it had a base for the car and was only $60 which when you think about it is pretty much the same price as hiring one just for one baby but we have used it for two children now and could still sell it after cos it looks brand new.
if you dont want to buy one then i would recommend the burwood rentals or plunket.]]> Wed, 06 Sep 2006 11:00:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=70447&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#70447 <![CDATA[Hiring Capsules in CHCH : Have you tried the Plunket??...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=70442&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#70442 Author: Millie1976

Have you tried the Plunket?? We ended up buying a capsule with base from Baby Factory on sale about 1 month ago as we thought that if we were going to have 2 children it was worth while buying.]]> Wed, 06 Sep 2006 10:27:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=70442&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#70442 <![CDATA[Hiring Capsules in CHCH : The Baby Factory hires them out,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=70440&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#70440 Author: Andie

The Baby Factory hires them out, too.  I guess they do it all over the country, not just in Palmy.

it is a great day here aye!! so much better than yesterday
we got our capsule from babycare rentals in burwood. they are just around the corner from the hospital. i think it's $20 bond and about $10/mth to hire them, maybe worth a try if you haven't already ]]> Wed, 06 Sep 2006 09:49:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=70432&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#70432 <![CDATA[Hiring Capsules in CHCH : Hey there ladies, What a primo...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3681&PID=70428&title=hiring-capsules-in-chch#70428 Author: shelleybean
