Can I buy a second-hand changing unit?
Short answer: Usually, yes. Check it is complete, undamaged and has its instructions, and look up any recalls before use.
- Check the changing top height suits whoever does most changes.
- Look for storage within reach so you never step away from your baby.
- Wall-fix tall or heavy units as the instructions say.
