Mifold Booster Seat Review
These days, part of traveling anywhere includes jumping in an Uber (or some kind of ride share). Depending on where you are traveling, the driving can sometimes be a little unnerving. So how can it be that we ever considered just chucking our kids in the back seat and hoping nothing bad happens. That’s crazy. But the question remains, since I’m obviously not going to bring an actual car seat with me, is it possible to travel with kids but keep their safety a priority while getting from A to B? We discovered the mifold booster seat, and it’s been a great add to our kid-related travel gear. It’s lightweight, low-profile and solidly build.
Review
We’d call this seat a must have if you’re traveling with young children. Weighing only 1.6 lbs, this foldable child seat (which is tiny compared to a traditional booster seat) can be dropped into your day bag, and barely make a dent in your day. It meets or exceeds most regulatory specifications, and can be used in cars, buses and on planes. Bonus: it doesn’t even count against your luggage weight restrictions, because it’s a safety item. Score.
Pros: This product is a solidly made, adjustable, lightweight, small and easy to use. It’s hard to argue with this. Keep your kids safe with this must-have product.
Cons: A few times while getting in and out of a taxi we struggled with releasing our girls quickly. It takes a few tries to get good at opening and releasing your child because of the seatbelt routing. It makes sense to do this a few times and get comfortable with how it works so that you’re not struggling with it when you’re late for a flight!
Overall
RECOMMENDED. This is a definite winner. The mifold booster seat is a great travel product that puts your child’s safety first.
Our supplier has been out of these for sometime, but you can try buying directly from the manufacturer or through Amazon.
