A baby high chair is an essential product that helps parents teach their children healthy eating habits from a young age. Many mothers are unsure which type of high chair is suitable for their child. Let’s explore with AVAKids the best and most worthwhile baby high chairs available today through the article below!

1Understanding Baby High Chairs

1.1 What is a Baby High Chair?

A baby high chair is a chair designed specifically for babies from 5 months of age and older. This product was created to support the weaning process of young children, helping them develop independent eating habits.

A high chair consists of 3 main parts: the seat, the food tray, and a safety harness to secure the baby’s sitting position. Most high chairs are made of wood or high-quality plastic, both of which are safe materials for babies’ health.

1.2 Common Types of Baby High Chairs

Currently, there are many types of high chairs on the market with diverse designs, sizes, and prices. However, in general, high chairs are divided into 3 main types: Foldable high chairs, high chairs with tall legs, and reclining high chairs with multiple positions.

Foldable High Chairs

Foldable high chairs are the most common type today. This type of high chair can be easily folded, and the tray is detachable, making it convenient to carry when going out. Foldable high chairs have short legs with straps to tie to an adult chair and a safety harness for the baby.

Advantages:

• Foldable design saves space and is easy to carry when going out.
• Diverse and varied designs.
• Made from virgin plastic, so the chair is lightweight, making it more convenient to move.
• Can be placed in various locations, such as on the floor, on an adult dining chair, or on a bed.
• Parts like the tray and cushion can be easily removed for cleaning.
• Price range: 200,000 – 600,000 VND (updated on August 30, 2024, subject to change).

Disadvantages:

• Only suitable for babies weighing under 15 kg (around 3 years old or younger).

High Chairs with Tall Legs

In European countries, high chairs with tall legs are commonly used. This type of high chair is usually made of natural wood, high-quality plastic, and stainless steel. Due to being made from high-quality materials, the chair has a sturdy structure, can withstand heavy loads, and is durable.

Advantages:

• Sturdy and durable structure.
• Can withstand heavy loads, up to 50 kg (equivalent to the weight of an adult), so children aged 4-6 years or heavier can still sit.
• Equipped with many convenient functions and different modes.

Disadvantages:

• Heavy and bulky, making it inconvenient to carry when going out and difficult to clean.
• Often designed to be large, so small babies who are just starting to wean may feel lost while sitting.
• Quite expensive, ranging from 600,000 – 2,000,000 VND (updated on August 30, 2024, subject to change).
• Wooden chairs are cheaper but heavier and more difficult to clean.

Reclining High Chairs with Multiple Positions

This type of high chair can recline in 2 to 3 positions, helping the baby sit most comfortably. The chair is designed to serve as both a dining table and a comfortable place for the baby to lie down and play. However, this type of chair takes up quite a lot of space when reclined, so it’s suitable for spacious homes with comfortable space.

Advantages:

• Compact design, similar to foldable chairs, making it easy to carry when going out.
• Sturdy structure, limiting slippage, with a spacious seat and tray for the baby’s comfort.
• Spacious design suitable for babies from small to large, and can even be reclined like a lounger.

Disadvantages:

• Relatively high price, ranging from 700,000 – 2,000,000 VND (updated on August 30, 2024, subject to change).

2Criteria for Choosing a Good Baby High Chair

2.1 Material

A baby’s skin is delicate and sensitive, so choosing a high chair material that is safe for their health is a crucial criterion. Chairs made from recycled plastic often contain many chemicals that can not only harm the skin but also affect the baby’s development later on.

Parents should choose high chairs made from certified wood or high-quality plastic to ensure the child’s health. To be more certain, parents should buy products from reputable brands at large retail systems with clear origins.

2.2 Design and Style

There are many high chairs on the market today with various designs and styles. Depending on the purpose of use and preferences, parents can choose the appropriate chair for their baby. However, parents should consider choosing a chair with a simple design and easy to use.

2.3 Additional Features

Nowadays, high chairs are equipped with many additional features, such as adjustable trays, footrests, and backrests, to help the baby enjoy their meal most comfortably. Parents can consider these features to choose the most convenient chair for their child.

2.4 Easy to Clean

When buying a high chair, parents should pay attention to whether the material and structure of the chair are easy to clean. During weaning, babies often drop food and make the chair dirty. If the chair is difficult to clean, the stains left over time will accumulate bacteria that are harmful to the baby’s health.

2.5 Brand and Origin

High chairs from reputable brands have clear origins and are quality-tested to ensure safety for children. To avoid buying counterfeit goods, parents should buy chairs at large stores with purchase policies and product warranties that protect consumers.

Currently, baby high chairs are being sold at AVAKids stores nationwide. You can visit the store directly to purchase or order online via the website avakids.com.

2.6 Price

High chairs with simple designs and fewer additional features will be cheaper. Conversely, chairs equipped with many functions and soft cushions for the baby will be more expensive.

High chairs on the market today typically range from 500,000 – 3,000,000 VND. Depending on the needs and financial situation, parents can choose the most suitable high chair.

3Why Buy a Baby High Chair?

Having the baby sit upright in a high chair will make it easier and faster for the parent to feed them. At the same time, it protects the baby’s digestive system as they won’t be crawling or lying down while eating, and the parent won’t have to carry the baby while walking on dusty streets.

When it’s mealtime, parents should place the baby upright in the chair to help them form a habit and implicitly understand that it’s time to eat whenever they sit in the high chair. Besides, parents should not let the baby watch TV or do other things while eating, avoiding distractions and encouraging focus on eating.
