MiFold Grab and Go review
Product alert
This car seat has passed the regulatory tests required by the ECE R44.04 standard to be sold as suitable for children from 15-36kg, that's around three or four years old up to 12 years old. However, in our own more stringent tests, which include a side-impact crash test (something not included to pass the test for R44.04), it scored poorly, so the score is automatically downgraded and it becomes a Don't Buy car seat.

The Mifold Grab and Go booster seat claims to be the 'most advanced, compact and portable booster seat in the world'. This backless booster seat was crowd-funded and first went on sale in 2016. It's super small and the brand claims that it's 'just as safe' as a booster seat, but we've made this seat a Don't Buy. Read the safety alert attached to our review to find out why.
