Brand new Axkid Minikid Core installed in a smallish Ford Focus. Angle adjuster in position two which in this car means 32 degree angle. Keep in mind rear facing seats should not use more than 35 degrees.

Very easy to install Core incredibly tight! At least as tight as seats with tether straps. Compact size, passenger of 188 cm fit comfortably in front seat.

Using the more upright position will in this car provide 20-25 degree angle and passenger up front will have an additional 10 cm of space.

Also tried to install in front passenger seat with great view in right side mirror. Incredibly easy installation without tether straps!

BeSafe Stretch installed in an Audi Q4 with airbag off. Parents are having trouble installing seat correctly and also fitting a Doona infant seat.

Stretch currently installed in back seat but Doona won`t fit in the front. What`s the best solution? Stretch rarely works in front seat due to zero view in right side mirror but we try anyway. Thankfully things work fine in front seat with nice view in right side mirror which is extremely unusual. This means Doona can be placed behind passenger seat.

Lower tether straps attached under front of seat rails in seconds instead of tying straps together and wrapping around passenger seat. The lower straps from BeSafe are fantastic, very stiff and easy to thread under rails.

We also extended support leg at the very end. That means we can push down on car seat and make the self-locking straps work to tighten straps. Straps also crossed behind seat for easier installation. Stretch is now rock solid against dashboard and so tight the whole car will move when pushing hard on car seat. "That`s the dream" as MLK would have said.

Axkid Minikid 4 Pro installed in a Kia Optima. Angle around 30-35 degrees and little leg space used for young girl.

Kia Optima is a large car and there is huge space up front for an adult. As child grows she will be able to use large leg space and front passenger will still be comfortable.

Tether straps attached under seat rails which is easy in every car by Kia. No need to install attachment loops.

Axkid times three. Customer photos with three rear facing seats in a Skoda Kamiq.

Most parents are worried about enough room for two rear facing seats in a regular car. Relax, it`s easy to fit two or three seats in most vehicles as long as seat selection is decent.

In the front seat a ONE 3 with airbag off and good view in right side mirror. Skoda is doing great with Isofix in front seat which is much appreciated.

In back seat two Minikid 4 Max. One with huge leg room and number two with far less.

Using middle seat can be very practical to maximise space in the car. Here we have three rear facing seats and two adults riding comfortably in a normal vehicle.

Axkid Minikid 4 Max installed in a BMW 330 with airbag off. Why do we use front seat so much for rear facing seats in Sweden???

In general we say all positions in the car are equally safe. But front seat with airbag off is the safest place for a rear facing child when looking at details.

Parents use front seat for practical reasons and not for additional safety. Rear facing in front seat has been used in Sweden since late 1960(!) with outstanding safety so we have a pretty good track record.

Today`s seat installed with 30-35 degree angle and no leg space for a young child. Very easy to attach tether straps under seat rails. We also crossed straps behind seat for easier installation.

Axkid Minikid 4 Pro and Minikid 4 Max installed in a Tesla MY. Home delivery with installation for a customer and we got spoiled with a warm garage.

Attachment loops installed both in front and back seat. A must in back seat of Tesla, helpful but not necessary up front.

4 Pro in front seat with 35 degree angle and little leg space for young child. Excellent view in right side mirror and we didn`t cross straps behind the seat since the loops are so helpful.

4 Max in back seat installed earlier by customer. We move seat forward to provide more leg space for 3.5-year old. Angle is around 30 degrees.

To make seat fit rock hard we tighten seat belt and get rid of slack. Pull up support leg and push down/wiggle on the seat to make the self tightening straps work. Extend support leg at the very end and seat will not move a single centimeter.

Loops in the back look awesome, make installation super fast and front seat can still move all the way back.

Axkid ONE 3 in a Kia EV3. This car is described as smaller but thanks to the incredibly compact size of ONE 3 it`s possible to provide huge leg space for child and comfortable riding up front.

Seat right now adjusted to 35 degree angle for a 3.5-year old. Grandchild could easily sit with far less angle and leg space can then be increased even further.

Leg space for child right now is a massive 20+ cm and a tall adult will fit fine in front passenger seat.

Britax Max-Way Plus in a Tesla Model Y. Doing “the whole package” which means scheduled appointment for trying seats, installing attachment loops and then seat installation.

Attachment loops as usual placed on top of seat rails. In all other cars under the rails. Front seat can slide back all the way without issues and tether straps are quickly attached.

A pre-owned Max-Way Plus sold 2023 is selected and installed with good leg space and 35 degree angle for young child. Plenty of space up front for a tall adult.

Max-Way Plus is one of the best rear facing seats ever produced. Compact, very light weight at 7 kg, Plustested and easy to install. A favourite pre-owned seat and also great for traveling. If we try hard two “disadvantages” can be found.

First is length of use. We usually say five years or 120-125 cm which is great. But today we have rear facing seats which last to age nine or 140 cm which is more impressive.

Second is view in right side mirror when using front passenger seat with airbag off. MW sits quite high on vehicle seat and sides are in the way which usually means terrible view in the mirror.

Axkid Minikid 4 Max and BeSafe iZi Twist in a Skoda Enyaq. Today doing the “whole package”. Scheduled appointment to find a rear facing seat for a 4.5 years old, then installing attachment loops and finally seats.

In Skoda, VW, Seat and Audi the extra long attachment loops fit perfectly in the rear. We have a detailed video of installation here on the site and on Youtube if needed. iZi Twist in front seat with Isofix.

Skoda has been doing a great job with Isofix in front seat for years. Awesome! View in right side mirror is acceptable but not great.

Minikid 4 in back seat and 35 degree angle requested since child sleeps a lot in the car. Keep in mind not to use more than 35 degrees for safety reasons. No angle adjuster needed in this or any other car.

With attachment loops in place the self locking tether straps are quickly fastened and seat then rock solid simply by pushing down and wiggling. Extend support leg at the very end. Minikid 4 has styrofoam on the sides so push down on top of seat to avoid potential damage.

Scheduled appointment to find a rear facing seat for a Porsche Panamera. The car is quite spacious but back seats are sloping a lot and the Isofix connectors are buried deep and far down in the seat.

Trying Klippan Opti 129, Axkid ONE 3 and Axkid Minikid 4 Pro/Max. Mainly looking if 35 degree angle is possible for this young child.

Got 35 degree angle with all seats, even ONE 3 installed with Isofix. Impressive!

Decision is Klippan Opti and we install seat with little leg space and 35 degree angle. Fairly easy to attach tether straps under seat rails.

Good space up front for a tall adult. As child grows angle can be decreased to provide more room up front or more leg space for child.

Axkid ONE 2 installed in an older Honda CRV. This is the most compact rear facing seat available and it will fit well in any car small to large with Isofix.

Parent is picking up a pre-owned ONE 2 and we first try behind drivers seat where it fits nicely.

Finally installed behind passenger seat with huge leg space for child and enough space up front for an adult 190 cm tall.

BeSafe Stretch and Axkid Spinkid installed in a Volvo V60 CC. 2.5-year old sitting happily in Stretch with little leg space and huge space up front for passenger.

6-month old needs to leave infant seat and use a rear facing seat. A swivel seat is desired and a Plustested Spinkid 2 is then perfect.

We try the older Spinkid, almost identical to Spinkid 2, which works well behind medium height driver.

Parents decide on Spinkid 2 and it will be used for a few years. By then older child is around six years old and can turn forward in a high back booster seat and little brother can use Stretch. Good strategy!

Stretch was well installed but still loose. We pulled up support leg, tighened seat belt more and pushed down on seat while wiggling side to side.

Finished off by extending support leg firmly against vehicle floor and seat is now rock solid. When pushing on Stretch the whole car will move which is exactly what we want.

Axkid Minikid 4 Max and Axkid ONE installed in a Kia Niro. In the back we have ONE with huge leg space for a three year old and lots of angle.

In the front with airbag off Minikid with little leg space and 30-35 degree angle for young child. As usual very easy to attach tether straps under seat rails in all cars by Kia.

We crossed straps behind Minikid for easier installation. View in right side mirror is great.

Axkid Minikid 4 Max in a Toyota Yaris Cross. Not a large car but thanks to the extremely compact size of Minikid we can provide nice leg space for child and enough room for a 188 cm tall adult up front. Impressive!

Angle is around 30 degrees, can be installed more upright for additional leg room for child or more space in passenger seat.

The old slogan "My Toyota is fantastic!" is true in every way. Attaching tether straps in any Toyota is extremely easy since there is plenty of room under seat rails.

No need for attachment loops in any Toyota. Having the car for 20 years and only doing a few oil changes and replace a light bulb is also completely normal:-)

TinySeats Two in a Mercedes EQV. Trying seat in this huge taxi with some special requirements which are easily met.

It`s one of only two rear facing seats in the world lasting rear facing to 23 kg with Isofix. Back is veeeeery tall and will easily last to seven years.

TinySeats Two will work nicely as a "normal" everyday rear facing seat but many use it for travel, in the car pool, as a spare seat or keep one at grandparents place. When traveling it can be brought along as carry-on or checked in their custom made SeatCase. Awesome!

In a taxi you want seat to be ready quickly and disappear when not used. Today`s taxi has a special requirement of fitting seat behind passenger seat in a small compartment.

This van is huge but often have many passengers with lots of luggage in the trunk so space is always needed. TinySeats fits perfectly behind passenger seat and can can be ready to use in under a minute.
