The Minikid is designed with a Swedish safety-mindset into its DNA allowing “real” extended rear-facing up to 6-7 years of age but still in a compact design. Easy Installation and Secure Handling More than 60% of all car seats are to some extent installed incorrectly. The unique self-tightening tether straps featured on the Minikid 2 makes the installation smooth as the seat can be “wiggled” into place. Thanks to the straps, everyday handling is easy and secure since the seat is kept in place at all times and does not become loose over time (belt attached seats should always be regularly checked).
Comprehensive Multi-Directional Impact Protection
Modern collision data reveals that 25% of severe vehicular accidents involve lateral impacts or angled frontal collisions. The Axkid Side Impact Protection (ASIP) system addresses this critical safety concern through advanced engineering developed in partnership with ADAC, Germany's premier automotive safety research institute. This sophisticated protection framework strategically deforms during side-impact events, channeling and dissipating crash forces away from your child before they can cause harm.
Ergonomic Comfort Engineering for Extended Journeys
Travel comfort shouldn't be compromised for safety. The Minikid 2 features a precision-engineered multi-position recline system offering five distinct adjustment settings. This versatile positioning system adapts to your child's age, physical development, and your vehicle's seat configuration. For families requiring additional recline options, the supplementary angle-adjustment wedge provides up to 10 degrees of extra positioning flexibility, making the Axkid Minikid 2 perfect for extended journeys.
Award-Winning Safety Credentials and Industry Recognition
The Axkid Minikid 2 has earned prestigious safety accolades by successfully completing the rigorous Swedish Plus Test – considered the world's most demanding rear-facing crash assessment. This achievement, combined with Folksam's "Good Choice" designation and Mother and Baby's top-three rear-facingcategory ranking (2020), demonstrates the Minikid's exceptional safety performance and industry leadership. The Plus Testcertification sets the Axkid Minikid 2 apart from competitors who haven't achieved this gold standard of safety testing.

Life-Saving Extended Rear-Facing Philosophy
The Axkid Minikid 2 champions the proven safety benefits of extended rear-facing travel, a positioning that significantly reduces the risk of serious injury during frontal collisions. This commitment to rear-facing protection has contributed to countless families' safety stories and reinforces Axkid's reputation as a leader in child passenger safety innovation. The Minikid allows extended rear-facing up to 25kg, providing years of optimal protection that far exceeds standard forward-facing alternatives.
For parents seeking to understand the science behind rear-facing safety and the importance of the Swedish Plus Test, the Axkid Minikid 2 represents the pinnacle of extended rear-facing engineering.
The Axkid Minikid 2 is approved for children from 0-25kg (birth to approximately 6-7 years) and up to 125cm in height. However, Axkid recommends using an infant carrier until the child is steady enough to sit unaided, as the Minikid 2 is not recommended for use from birth since smaller children need better support and protection in the first couple of months of life.
The Swedish Plus Test is the world's toughest voluntary crash test for car seats. It uses higher impact speeds and shorter braking distances than standard EU testing, specifically measuring neck forces that could cause life-threatening injuries. BeSafe Stretch has passed this rigorous test, ensuring your child won't experience dangerous neck forces during a frontal collision. Only seats that pass this test receive Plus certification - a gold standard in car seat safety.
The Minikid 2 is designed to grow with your child and provides rear-facing comfort and safety all the way up to 6-7 years of age (125 cm, 25 kg). However, the actual usage period depends on your child's individual growth rate. Some reviewers note that while marketed for use up to 6 years, children may outgrow it earlier depending on their height.
I was struggling to choose a car seat. Called up little peas and spoke to a helpful staff member who advised me on pros and cons between a Britax and Axkid seats I had seen on the site. Settled on this one and couldn’t be happier. My 3.5 year old loves it. Plenty of room for her legs and fits great in our car. Great service and super fast delivery!

My kid is still too young to use it, but this seat looks incredibly sturdy, comfortable and safe. It also looks pretty sleek. I like the way it attaches and the fact that youvan tilt it for smaller children. I also like the additional door-side bumper.
