Children outgrow things faster than they wear them out, which makes baby and kids items one of the best-value second-hand categories in Delhi. Prams, cots, high chairs, walkers, toys, bicycles and kids' furniture are frequently sold after only a few months of use.
Browse the listings below, inspect the item in person and buy directly from the family that used it.
What to look for
- Prams and strollers — check the folding mechanism, the brakes, the wheels and the harness clips. Open and close it fully yourself.
- Cots and high chairs — check for stability, that all fittings are present, and that there are no cracked or missing parts. Ask whether the assembly instructions are available.
- Toys and ride-ons — inspect for sharp edges and loose small parts, and check that battery compartments are clean and not corroded.
- Kids' furniture and bicycles — study tables, beds and cycles from families whose children have outgrown them. See also furniture in Delhi.
Safety checks that matter
For anything a child sits in or sleeps in, insist on seeing all the parts assembled before you pay. Ask the seller how old the item is and whether it was ever involved in a fall or an accident. Look up the model to check that it has not been recalled, and confirm that safety harnesses, locks and brakes work. Cot mattresses and anything fabric should be washed before use, and many buyers prefer to buy a new mattress and take only the frame. Car seats are the one category worth being strictest about: buy only from a seller who can confirm the seat's history and age, since the shell and straps degrade over time.
