5 Essential Features to Ensure You Pick the Perfect Baby High Chair

he world of childhood is incredibly diverse and one of its key aspects is baby furniture and products designed for little ones. Children are delicate beings who require special care and attention, which is why high-quality, safe, and eco-friendly children's furniture is always a top priority for parents.

When a child grows and starts eating solid foods, the need for a comfortable and reliable high chair becomes clear. A premium high chair not only ensures comfort for the baby but also guarantees safety, durability, and convenience for parents.

With the vast array of models on the market, choosing the right one can sometimes be challenging. To help your child develop in comfort, it’s important to choose a chair that fully meets their needs at the right time.

In this blog we will discuss the key factors to consider when selecting a feeding chair. At Labebe Boutique we offer a wide range of chairs from leading global brands, ensuring you can find the perfect option for your child.

5 Key Features to Consider When Choosing a Baby High Chair

Choosing a baby high chair is an important decision for every parent. This piece of furniture ensures your baby’s comfort and safety during meals and serves as an invaluable assistant for adults. High chairs usually come equipped with a tall backrest, armrests, safety straps, and a removable dining tray.

It is recommended to use feeding chairs once your baby can sit independently—typically around 6 months. This is a crucial stage in a baby’s development, as they transition to solid foods, and it's essential to choose a model that is both reliable and long-lasting.

Before making a purchase consider these five key characteristics: safety, comfort, ease of use, compactness, and durability.

Safety

Safety is the primary criterion when choosing children's products. A high chair should have a stable structure to prevent slipping or tipping over. It's especially important to look for models with wheels that have a braking system, which is crucial as your child becomes more active and doesn’t like sitting still for long.

Many high chairs are equipped with 5 point safety harnesses that securely fasten the baby and minimize the risk of falls or attempts to stand.

Before buying, make sure the chair meets international safety standards. A certification indicates that the product has passed all necessary tests and is safe for children.

The Peg Perego Siesta Follow Me is a popular collection from the Italian brand, offering multifunctional transforming chairs. With a single motion, the chair can be converted into a recliner, making it ideal for various situations.

Made from eco-leather, it features 9 height adjustment levels and 3 settings for the footrest and backrest, allowing it to easily adapt to your child’s needs. The double removable headrest also adds extra comfort and a touch of design originality.

Comfort

Mealtimes can take a while, especially when a baby is just starting to explore solid foods. Ensuring your child is comfortable makes the process more enjoyable for both of you. A soft seat on the high chair provides your child with comfort and minimizes discomfort during prolonged sitting.

Adjustable height seats and footrests allow the chair to adapt to your child’s age and size, providing maximum flexibility and comfort. This adaptability addresses many challenges that arise during mealtime.

Convertible high chairs with multiple adjustment levels are not only convenient for feeding but also for resting or napping, making them a multifunctional solution for everyday use.

Easy to use

Every parent knows that mealtimes come with surprises: spilled crumbs, soup, or a resistant child. That’s why it’s important to choose a high chair that is easy to clean.

Chairs with a removable tray make cleaning much easier. Some models, such as those in the Peg Perego Prima Pappa collection have a double tray surface that can be quickly swapped between meals. Additionally, these chairs come with a cup holder, adding extra convenience for parents.

Compactness 

If you live in a small apartment or house with limited storage space, a compact high chair can be the perfect solution. At Labebe, you can find foldable feeding chairs, ideal for those who travel often or visit friends and family. These baby chairs fold easily, making them simple to transport and set up without hassle.

Even if space isn’t an issue, a compact feeding chair adds convenience: it can be quickly tucked away after meals, freeing up room.

Despite their small size, such chairs do not compromise on functionality. Modern ergonomic designs offer everything parents need: comfort, safety, and style, while also providing a practical everyday solution.

Durability 

Investing in a high-quality feeding chair ensures healthy development for your child and long-term practicality. If you're looking for a chair that grows with your baby, consider models designed specifically for this purpose.

The high chairs available at Labebe are built for long-term use, suitable for children aged 6 months to 3 years. Their multifunctionality allows you to save money while using one product for years.

These models are made from durable materials, such as FSC®-certified solid beech wood guaranteeing their longevity and reliability. Most high chairs have a maximum weight capacity of 15-20 kg, ensuring long-lasting use. One of the best options is the FoppaPedretti brand, known for its premium quality, design, and functionality.

Italian high chairs stand out from standard models: they can be used as a feeding chair from 6 months to 3 years, then converted into a table and chair for children aged 3 to 6. This is a great advantage for parents who value durable solutions.

You can even choose a stylish design that fits into your home decor, ensuring the high chair remains a relevant part of your household for years to come.
