What to consider when buying a baby highchair

Budget

There are so many highchairs around to suit all budgets, from @ £25 for something simple right up to £400 for a statement highchair. 

What type of highchair?

There are various styles of highchairs to opt for, from traditional to contemporary highchairs and foldable to portable ones. It really depends on when, how and where you are going to use it. Will you just be using it in your kitchen at home or will you take it from place to place?

Will it fit in with your home decor?

There are options which look really stylish and won’t detract too much from your home furniture, or you may opt for something that is bright and eye-catching. It really comes down to personal taste.

How safe is it?

Look for the British Standard EN 14988:2006 safety standard mark. Make sure you get one which includes a five-point harness so there is no chance of baby slipping through the gap or falling out.

Do you want a highchair which will grow with your child?

There are so many excellent options now which will seat your child from birth right up until those late toddler years. Some even last until your child is 10 years old. You may want to invest a bit more now to save you having to then buy children’s chairs in the future.
