High chair buying guide

Feeding a hungry baby in a high chair isn’t always a picnic. But the right high chair can help to contain mealtime madness and make the whole experience a lot more enjoyable for you and your baby. A high chair usually consists of a frame and an attached seat with a safety belt and a footrest.

Getting started

There are still a few old-fashioned wood high chairs out there with a removable tray or arms that lift the tray over a baby’s head. Some have modern conveniences, such as a cushioned, wipe-clean seat pad, a three-point harness, a clear, dishwasher-safe, pullout tray insert that protects the wood finish, and most important, a center crotch post, which helps to prevent a child from slipping out of the chair. But many wood high chairs aren’t always as comfortable or cushy for babies as the latest, form-fitting models on the market now, and many of them might not meet the latest safety standards.
