Magnetic release key is too small and with 4 s.all parts to keep hold of and use to put the harness on and off i think it needs to be bigger and some kind of attached line to keep the bits together is needed. Overall poor.
Axkid booster seat itself is sturdy and easy adjustable ,height and width adjusts with one click. The magnetic harness however is not fitted to the seat and is extraordinary to fit and adjust. I'm still not using it as can't get proper fit. Nowhere to fix the shoulder straps to stop them rising up and minimal instructions, also magnets really s.all and fiddly.
