As a parent, finding the perfect car seat for your little one can be a daunting task. Safety, comfort, and convenience are all at the top of the list. That’s why we was excited to try out the brand new Axkid Spinkid, a swivel car seat that promises to make rear-facing journeys not only safe but also hassle-free.
Right off the bat, I was impressed by its versatility. The Spinkid is suitable for children from birth up to approximately 4 years old, with a weight range of 40 to 105cm and a maximum weight of 18kg. Plus, it’s R129/i-Size approved, giving parents that much-needed peace of mind
The standout feature of this car seat is its 180-degree swivel function. With just a press of a button, you can effortlessly rotate the seat towards the car door, making it super easy to place and remove your child. Not to mention, it can also be a lifesaver when it comes to awkwardly trying to lean into the car when fastening the seatbelt, a real consideration should you be looking to add to your clan and being with child.
As children grow, the Spinkid effectively grows with them. The adjustable headrest, with its 12-step mechanism, ensures a perfect fit for little one’s length and size. And for those long journeys, the Advanced Sleep Well System allows the seat to be inclined up to an impressive 42 degrees, providing extra comfort for a fuss-free journey.
We also have to mention the hollow design of the rebound bar, which cleverly creates more legroom for little ones. Up to 14cm of leg space was an unexpected bonus, and it made the ride even more relaxed and flexible.
In terms of safety, the Easy Installation System exceeded expectations. In just five simple steps, the car seat is securely installed in seconds! The ISOFIX arms handled like a breeze, and the one-click attachment to the designated points ensures a rock-solid fit in my car. With busy parents in mind, this handy feature means it isn’t a time-consuming and frustrating ordeal.
It also excels with it’s thoughtfully engineered safety features, such as the adjustable impact shield. This cleverly designed shield provides optimal protection in the event of sudden stops or collisions, acting as a protective barrier for your child. It effectively absorbs and distributes the impact forces, reducing the risk of injury and keeping your little one secure during unforeseen circumstances.
But that’s not all – the Spinkid is also equipped with a reinforced steel frame, adding an extra layer of strength and stability to the car seat. This robust construction ensures that the seat maintains its integrity and provides reliable protection, even under intense forces.
For added comfort and support, the Spinkid offers versatile baby support cushions as optional accessories. Thanks to these inlays, little ones are comfortably cocooned and well protected, perfectly tailored to fit within the seat.
The Axkid Spinkid undoubtedly stands out as a remarkable rear-facing car seat that masterfully amalgamates safety, comfort, and convenience, making it an outstanding choice for families in need of a Group 0+ seat.
