What are the differences between Axkid Minikid 3 and Minikid 4?
Launching the fourth version in the Minikid family, Axkid Minikid 4, we are incredibly proud of the fact that we never stop developing, we always listen, improve and develop new, innovative ideas and solutions to keep your child as safe and comfortable as possible.
Building on the success of the Axkid Minikid 3 and the praised and awarded Minikid Family, we have made several key updates to enhance your child’s comfort and safety during car journeys.
» Updated headrest geometry
We’ve re-designed the headrest geometry to improve the fitting and position of your child to give support to your child’s head and neck. The headrest geometry features a U-shape compared to the Minikid 3 which featured more of a V-shape. This enhances the experience of the Minikid 4 headrest with it being more open and fits perfectly to children of all ages.
» New comfort back pad
The new detachable comfort back pad makes the experience of the car seat even more comfortable. The featured pad is made of the same high-quality materials as the premium seat cover. Additionally, the pad is designed to be very easy to remove if you prefer not to use it or are in need of a wash – we do know accidents can happen…
» Updated toddler support cushion
The Axkid Minikid 4 comes with a new design of the extra inlay that is recommended to be used from 61cm up to 105cm. The baby/toddler support cushion is made in comfortable memory foam to seat your little child into the perfect position to ideally benefit from the car seats safety. The inlay also features a mesh on the back panel promoting better airflow.
» New textile
The Minikid 4 features a brand-new textile that’s even softer and more breathable than before, providing your child with a comfortable seating experience. The new textile has the same padding as the previous Minikid 3 Premium which means additional padding in the textile for a higher comfort for your child.
» Updated details and finish
In addition to the improvements in comfort and safety, we’ve also paid attention to the details. The Minikid 4 boasts an improved finish that’s both sleek and durable, and is available in a range of new, eye-catching colours that are sure to please both parents and children alike.

Yes, you can! You can find the instructions on how to remove and fitting the covers step by step in our manuals which you find here »
The seat cover can be washed in a washing machine at 30º C on the Gentle Cycle programme. Do not put the cover in a dryer as this can damage the cover and the padding may separate from the fabric.
All our car seats have tilt functions in the front. Try to use these first to get a better angle on the car seat, see the user manual for detailed information. If you need to tilt the car seat even more, we recommend our accessory ”angle adjusting wedge”.
Here is a video of how the wedge should be used.
