Yes i bought a $28 ikea high chair but i spent $100+ on accesories! I bought foot rest, cushion, cushion covers, silicone coverall mat, and high chair catchy..
So what is the ideal highchair like which one shall i buy for my 8 month old baby, like she cannot sit properly till now, when i am feeding she keeps rolling over and shakes her head. Kindly suggest.
I used this chair for many years at my private day care at home. For this price you can't expect more. It was ok for my purpose because I needed chairs which are not expensive, easy to clean and don't spend much place when I didn't need them. For my own children I had another chair but as an extra chair for the grandparents, in another room, in the garden or something else it is a good alternative. Many toddler sat in this chair and I never had any problems with eating. But the toddler were usually older than 6 month and were able to sit. I never used it for 6 month old babies.
Let me know if you have used any of these accessories? Don't forget to get your free 0 - 12 months old developmental milestone chart here: brightestbeginning.com/12monthmilestones/ 😊
Thank you Emma so much! can you do some research and do a video actually for feeding things we need from 6 months onwards. Also helpful food chart recommendation.
My baby and I love this chair, in the US it’s priced at $20 but I bought it secondhand for $15 and it already came with the removable infant pillow support and cover (about $10 if bought new from the store) which in the US looks different from the one in your pictures, the one I have can be inflated or deflated for more or less support. I did have to buy a separate foot rest for $25. All in all I paid $40 which is a great price in my opinion. I would also say you don’t need the silicone tray mat since the chair itself is super easy to clean. I noticed that most of the other, and infinitely more expensive, high chairs all have a reclined back which I hate and so does my son because it makes it so much harder to reach their food and feed themselves. I guess to each their own but I would 100% recommended this high chair for price, ease of clean, practicality, and versatility
@ Laura Barrientos that sounds like a great buy! When the footrest is used with this highchair it makes it a good, affordable and easy to clean highchair.
When I worked in a childcare centre we went from Ikea with 5 point straps to wooden ones which are the biggest pain to clean, id rather the Ikea with the accessories even if it cost the same
I really like the Tripp Trapp highchair. It’s pretty pricey though. There are knock off brands of this type of highchair (wooden with lots of adjustability). They are good too!
Help! My 13m old is very small and not very strong yet (medical things) so he still leans a little to one side and eats more with one hand and scoots forward alot so back bent and each time his bum is red and kind of marked after feeds. I tried adding towels and rags like another video you did suggested and didn't help enough for sides and def not butt and back thing just made it harder to put tray on. It's a old Integunity high chair. He's about to start ot and pt therapies and on wait lists for speech and therapy. He eats but doesn't seem as comfortable as he should be in it
Hi, I have having lot of difficulty in finding the right chair for my baby she an year old but hates high chair she just lean over and glide. Have bought a new chair but she is just gliding and roll her back. Please recommend what are the actual things we should look for in a high chair. I be very thankful of you.
Hi! In this video I go through what features I recommend when looking at purchasing a high chair. th-cam.com/video/WCeiB_bQlRQ/w-d-xo.html I hope it helps!
I have this high chair would you recommend stuffing rolled up receiving blankets on the sides of baby in order to less the effect of the large bucket seat?
Hi Divya, I recommend the Stokke Tripp Trapp Chair. To see why i recommend this chair you can check out this video th-cam.com/video/pqK0mBYuTd0/w-d-xo.html The Chicco highchair is just as expensive as the Tripp Trapp and the Tripp Trapp has greater adjustability and growth. The Joie is slightly cheaper but has limited adjustment. Also it has a weight limit of 15 kg and therefore your bub may outgrow this by 2 years of age, (they will still need a high chair os some sort at 2 years of age).
The harness is also hard to adjust...:( where can I buy these 3 additional accessories? So after 15 kg, should I stop using it once my baby reaches that weight? Any height limits? Would love to see a video on raising bilingual/trilingual children. Thanks:) greetings from Boston
Hi Pri, not sure about the US but I would try googling 'ikea antilop high chair accessories' to find a local supplier. I would stop using the chair when your bub hits 15kg. Not sure about height limits. Thanks for your recommendation about the video.

Thanks for this! What's the high chair you'd recommend?

I've heard that this footrest is dangreous as it shifts weight center and children fall down!

Ikea Canada doesn't have all the extra's like you do in Australia so folks need to check before they buy.
Good to know! I assumed they’d have similar stock worldwide. Thanks Andrew!
They are by 3rd party sellers on Amazon,which is why they cost more than the chair
Nor Ikea sweden, where ikea started.....

Pls review the new ikea high chair Graval. Thanks
I still love my Abbie high chair, it also goes along with my house decor 🙃
We loved the ikea chair until my 10 mo literally climbed out from it while buckled in the seat belt.....
This was neatly explained n very helpful. Thank you so much
Your welcome.

ikea makes a cover too which is only 7 dollars😄.

Hii Emma, I didn't find best food to start for baby can you please do that
I have this high chair would you recommend stuffing rolled up receiving blankets on the sides of baby in order to less the effect of the large bucket seat?
Thank you! What about for a 14mo baby? More suitable? Do you still recommend the foot rest?
Can you please recommend a good high chair in Australia, thank you
thanks for your advice 👍
My pleasure!
Hi Emma in that case which one would you suggest? I was thinking of Chico or Joie high chair ...
She mentioned in her other video that she recommends the Tripp trapp.
Hi Divya, I recommend the Stokke Tripp Trapp Chair. To see why i recommend this chair you can check out this video th-cam.com/video/pqK0mBYuTd0/w-d-xo.html

Thank you Emma n Suad “ I will check the video for more details ... Have a good weekend !
You too!
