I've had a kid in a car seat or booster seat for the past 12 years; we've seen all kinds. They all had things in common besides keeping our babies safe; they were bulky, heavy and mostly awkward.
We've been talking about switching Miss M's current bulky car seat she's been using to a booster seat for the summer. We wanted something smaller but still safe for her age/size. We wanted a reliable, safe and simple booster; something that could grow with her and go with us.
We were recently introduced to the Mifold Grab and Go Booster; it brings booster seats to a whole new level! 10X smaller than your average booster seat, just as safe! I'm amazed at the size, it fits in my bag!
How can a booster seat that small be safe? Like all car seats and booster seats, Mifold passed Canadian standards and also has guidelines like the others. It's made for children aged 4+/40-100lbs/40"-57".
How does it work compared to a regular booster?
A regular booster lifts the child up to the seatbelt where Mifold holds the seatbelt down to the child.
When I first took the Mifold out of the box I wondered "that's it?"; it's super compact! It comes in a variety of colours, too! We chose the slate grey one.
Is your daughter the right size for it?
Yes, my daughter does meet the recommended age, height and weight for this booster. Always check the guidelines of the booster or car seat to make sure its suitable for your family before you purchase.
It's easy to set up:
It's easy to set up:
- Select the width setting for your child; small, medium or large. Place flat on the vehicle seat against the seat back. Sit child in Mifold with bottom and back against the seat.
- Feed lap belt through the guides and fasten. Pull shoulder belt to snugly adjust lap belt low on hips and into thighs.
- Attach the Mifold shoulder clip to the vehicle shoulder belt and adjust so the seat belt is snug.
It's easy enough for an older child to do on their own; with a little practice!
When clipped in she can move side to side a little bit but she can’t lean forward, it didn’t slide off or become loose. I am overly pleased with the Mifold for its functionality, size and cost (under $100!). I would recommend this seat for anyone looking for that perfect on-the-go, easy-to-use booster seat!
