What Does the Axkid Brand Offer?
The Swedish brand Axkid is known for being leaders and innovators in the world of travel safety for children². Although a fairly new brand to the market being 15 years old, the company has cemented its position as experts in safety thanks to their innovative engineering and focus on shaping safety standards.
The company’s core values are knowledge, innovation and dedication which illustrates how they have made a name for themselves in a fairly short space of time. As well as Axkid car seats being known for keeping children safe, the brand also places an emphasis on sustainability. This means that their focus is intended to make life better for children in the long run even once they have outgrown the need for a car seat.
What Safety Standards Does the Axkid ONE3 Offer?
The main selling point of the Axkid One3 is the outstanding safety features, which are represented in the standards the seat meets. As you will know if you have read our guide to car seat regulations, products used across the UK must reach a certain calibre, which is represented by their certification from standards. This is also the case for countries across the world, with individual laws dictating how car seats should be tested before use.
The Axkid One3 is R129 approved meaning it complies with the European safety standards published in 2013. Additionally, the model is also Swedish Plus Test approved which offers an extended level of safety plus means children can remain rear-facing for even longer. This seat is suitable for use from birth to seven years (or 23kg), meaning parents can choose to keep their children in a rear-facing position for much longer than in other seats. In fact, the model is the only rear-facing ISOFIX seat available for children up to the age of seven, proving how unique the design is. To adjust, the seat simply slides on the base to allow extra room to be made available. This feature is not only ideal for allowing children to rear face for even longer but to ensure the model is able to fit nicely in any vehicle type.
Additional features that improve safety include magnetic and adjustable harnesses, easy installation technology, and robust frames that are impact-resistant. Also included within the ISOFIX installation design is an indicator which clearly displays when a correct installation has been achieved. When combined with the self-tightening straps, it’s easy for parents to ensure their children are safely secured before every journey.
As well as being officially recognised by these important standards, the Axkid One3 has also received awards from ADAC, Folksam and the Red Dot Awards. When choosing a car seat, we think safety should always be the main consideration and this is something that this product offers in an abundance.
Special Features Included Within the Axkid ONE3?
Aside from the outstanding safety protection offered from the Axkid One3, there are many other unique and curated features which make this seat a brilliant investment. Below have included a run down of everything we think you should know about if this seat is on your shortlist.
Trademarked Features
Axkid doesn’t take its promise to innovation lightly, which is represented in its impressive collection of trademarked features. This model includes four of the brand’s best-known designs, which, when combined, make for an incredibly reliable car seat.
ProTecFrame™ is a design consideration which ensures crash forces of up to 1500kg can be withstood thanks to a solid steel frame. This robust design is also combined with the EasyClimb™ design, which makes it easy for children to enter the seat independently once they are big enough to do so. Both of these trademarks also contribute to the side-impact protection which is an aspect of the Swedish Plus Testing standard.
As mentioned in the safety section of this blog, the model is known for being the most versatile rear-facing seat on the market. This is enhanced via the SpaceFlow™ design which offers up to 30cm of legroom plus easy adjustment. Finally, the seat also includes the patented SleepWell™ design. This allows a step-less 42° recline function to be achieved with just one hand so that little ones can relax in comfort whilst travelling. As well as allowing comfort, this feature also ensures the correct position can be achieved for supporting a baby’s head whilst they are still going through the initial stages of growth.
Ergonomic and Lightweight
The Axkid One3 is also intended to make life easier for parents in terms of moving around. The robust frame is lightweight and simple to install, thanks to ISOFIX compatibility. Weighing less than 10kg, the seat is also easy to adjust for growing children. Thanks to the lightweight design, the model is suitable for any form of travel, from long car rides to air travel (always be sure to check your chosen airline for their regulations).
Sleek and Comfortable Design
With all of the design and safety features mentioned, you could be forgiven for thinking this car seat may be missing stylish elements. This is not the case as the model is a sleek seat including comfortable textiles, smooth lines and a choice of finishes to suit any preference. While we always recommend parents pay attention to how long a baby can stay in a car seat safety, this product ensures that every journey is a relaxing one. All materials are also intended to be shock absorbing which means that bumps in the road are not felt by little travellers.
Additional design features which enhance comfort include the padded headrest, spacious design, padded lining and easy access.
Ease to Maintain
Another feature which makes this car seat stand out is how easy it is to maintain. If you have ever tried cleaning car seats before, you will know the task is not always simple. However, considerations including removable covers and machine washable fabrics mean this seat can be cared for with ease. In fact, thanks to its ease of maintenance and durable design, the Axkid One3 is designed to have a lifespan of 15 years, which means it can accommodate growing children and families.
