Top 10 High Chairs for Baby & Toddler

When choosing a high chair, you know there are certain features that are important to you, others not as much. This guide will help you sort through the better high chairs and find the one that fits your baby and family needs the most.

Bringing baby to the table is one of the most exciting milestones of the first year. Once your baby can sit up unaided, he can watch, observe and be a part of what’s going on while the whole family eats. Having a simple-to-use, easy-to-clean highchair can be the difference between a manageable mealtime and a full-blown explosion of mess in the kitchen. Here is a round-up of the most popular highchairs. 

Thank you to the BCP readers who offered their recommendations.

$14.99

Ikea Antilop

With additional trays and support pillows available here.

It’s affordable, easy to clean, and super lightweight.

Note that there’s no footrest/ recline ability, and the legs are wide and it doesn’t fold, but we can’t ask for more at this price!

The Maxi Cosi is super comfortable for baby, plus grows with him nicely from when he starts solids until he’s ready to sit at the table. It’s easy to clean and has 8 different configurations, including the booster seat option, making it a great pick if you need to travel with your car seat!

Stokke Tripp Trapp

This iconic European highchair was uniquely designed to integrate baby with family. The Tripp Trapp can fit right up to your table, allowing baby to be right alongside the family. It’s easy to clean, features a height adjustment seat, and footplate and can be used from 6 months through 3 years of age.  The accessories, including the baby set and tray, though, need to be purchased separately, which makes it pricier, but also customizable as baby grows.  Note that it has no padding evidently and does not recline.

$299

4Moms Connect Highchair

4moms revamped their original chair giving it a more fresh and modern design, more tray position options, and adjustable grow-with-me features such as recline for newborns and a removable crotch post for toddlers and very comfortable silicone padding. The seat has multiple height positions, making it great for different size tabletops. The tray is magnetic, and goes on and off in seconds. Cleaning this chair is a breeze! Take any wipe or damp washcloth and viola – good as new! There’s no footrest and it is one of the pricier picks.

$329

Peg Perego Siesta

The Peg Perego is that timeless, multifunctional highchair can be used from the newborn stage through toddlerhood.  It’s the chair you probably sat in when you were a baby. There are loads of features to this chair that include a whopping NINE height positions, 5 recline positions, 3 position footrest, double removable tray, and loads more! The Siesta is one the few highchairs that has wheels and can be easily wheeled from room to room. Though it is not the most compact chair on the market (it is very bulky, as you might remember), it can be folded when not in use. Although the seat/padding is very comfortable, that can also make it hard to clean. Plus, it’s the priciest option on this list.

    I found that the primo cozy tot deluxe is a great high chair. It’s affordable (80 on bed bath if you’re a member, 100 if not, can get on amazon too for 100), easy to clean, small, foldable, and comes with 2 trays! Comes in 2 nice colors.

      Yes! Big fan of the primo as well. Great price (look out for open boxes on Amazon, got mine for $50), easy to clean, takes very little space

    IKEA also sells a support pillow and covers for it, so that covers for the “no paddding” con.

    I highly recommend this high chair!
    I searched for it in England and found it on Amazon UK under the brand ‘vital baby’. It is the same with an additional thin removable padding on the seat.
    It has many advantages. Very compact, comfortable, super practical, easy to clean, foldable and the ‘double tray’ is a real winner! It is dishwasher safe too!
    Highly recommend this high chair!

    The Cocoon had all the features I wanted so I purchased it. I was very disappointed though because it cracked on both sides by the circle and totally collapsed. I looked at my friends cocoon and I showed her where hers was also cracking. The company reimbursed me and I purchased the 4moms(older style). It does not recline but I am thrilled with it.

    We have and love the siesta, found a much cheaper price AND leatherette seat cusion so that it’s easy to wipe down and is not fabric. Love that it has a tray and then a tray on top, i use the top for milk and pop it off and use the bottom tray for meat! Also, there are hooks on the back of the legs to store the tray, along with a picket on the back of the seat to store bibs. And it is so comfy that my baby absolutely adores sitting in it

    I’m in the process of getting a high chair so thanks for this post! Debating between the 4moms, Melo or the Prince Castle. Any advise would be appreciated!
    I don’t love the look of the Prince Castle but is practicality above all?? Is Melo worth the price? Also, it looks tiny.. Are ppl happy with 4moms-even the new version? Thank you!

    Babyluxe is a fabulous high chair that folds almost flat! It costs about 100, but can be gotten on sale for about $50. They sell extra trays-even one that says pesach!

    Anyone has experience with the Bloom Fresco high chair? It’s pricey, but very pretty looking. It had a lot of features… wondering if anyone ever used it? Thanks

    Got the maxi cosi based on this list. I don’t like it and don’t recommend. Only commenting here because i use bcp often for recommendations and this one in particular felt flimsy and just not such great quality. Also no wheels or easy turning and hard to move around.

      Does anyone know anything about the Melo high chair? Is it good quality and worth the price?
