A seat loved by both parents and children due to its high level of safety and longevity of rear-facing, Axkid are excited to announce a new generation of Minikid has arrived - introducing the Axkid Minikid 3 in Sea! Allowing your child to sit refacing up to 7 years of age, the new Minikid 3 complies with the new R129 regulation so you can feel rest assured your little one is safe and secure.
Minikid 3 vs. Minikid 2
When a new generation of car seats is released it can be confusing to know what the new differences are, to solve this we have compiled a quick list of the major differences between the Minikid 3 and Minikid 2.
- Minikid 3 is approved to the new R129 regulation (approved up to 125cm and 36kg) whereas Minikid 2 complies with the ECE R44 regulations (only approves weight, up to 25kg)
- Approximately 10cm longer back length to allow longer rear-facing position
- Repositioned buckle for increased comfort and safety
- A new supportive Easy installation system and interactive 3D guide
- A new headrest design with force-absorbing technology
- Updated design of toddler support cushion
Ultimate safety and unique installation
Rear-facing seats have been proven to be five times safer than their forward-facing counterparts, so with this in mind, the Axkid Minikid 3 has made extended rear-facing one of its main priorities when designing the seat. With a 10cm increase in back length and extended weight limit to an impressive 36kg compared to the Minikid 2, the Minikid 3 is the ultimate extended rear-facing seat. Created with a Swedish safety mindset, it is no surprise that the Axkid Minikid 3 has passed one of the toughest crash tests - the Swedish Plus Test. To learn more about what this test entails, read our blog post.
The Axkid Minikid 3 provides protection from all angles with the seat's innovative Axkid Side Impact Protection, this feature has been built to deform and absorb the energy from the crash before reaching your child. This function has been developed with the ADAC in Germany, one of the most prestigious crash institutes, to ensure that safety is at its highest performance.
According to Axkid's research, more than 60% of all car seats are to some extent installed incorrectly so to help tackle this they have designed car seats that make installation safe and easy. Say goodbye to confusing seat belt installations, Axkid has designed a unique 6 step installation guide that features one belt clam and automatic lower tethers so that you only need to wiggle the seat into the correct position.
For nervous parents, Axkid's BILT app provides an easy step by step interactive 3D installation guide for both the installation of the car seat and the child. With these new safety installation features, Axkid guarantees that your car seat installation will be complete in approximately 60 seconds.
Flexible, adaptive and comfortable
Axkid believes you should never have to compromise on comfort and the new Axkid Minikid 3 still follows those beliefs. The car seat has been updated to include a more comfortable and ergonomic sitting and sleeping position for your child by implementing Axkid's new Sleep Well System. The Sleep Well System features a multi-reclining leg in the front to adjust your child in different positions to give them a more comfortable and secure recline.
The Axkid Minikid 3 adapts to your child's needs as they grow by featuring a range of adaptable and flexible features throughout the seat. The toddle support cushion provides even the smallest of children a safe and comfortable position while seated. Recommended for children between 61 to 105cm tall, the cushion is made of memory foam as well as a mesh fabric in the back for air circulation, resulting in an overall restful experience for your little one.
The headrest gives you the choice of 14 fixed positions and has been updated to be shaped into a more V-shape with force absorbing technology so that your child is safe in an event of a collision. The V-shape also allows curious little ones to peer outside of the window with ease!
