Then, depending on the size and independence of your child, you may want to switch to a booster seat on an adult chair. Many multifunctional and transitional highchairs adjust in height, so you can bring the chair right up to the table. How much does a highchair cost? If your little one asks to sit on a normal dining chair (or simply refuses to get in their high chair anymore) then consider using a booster seat or prop them up with a pillow. Which type of high chair is best? How big is it?: Many highchairs understandably have a large footprint at the base for stability, so it’s important to consider the overall dimensions of the highchair, especially if you are more limited on space at home. Some highchairs are designed to be left out at all times once assembled, while others offer a compact fold or even free-standing fold for more simple storage when not in use. While it may just seem like just a place to pop your child while they eat, there's more to what makes the best highchair than just how it looks. Parents want one that is easy to clean after messy mealtimes - because food will get into every little nook and cranny! - as well as straps that are safe and a good size tray. But there are a host of other extra features that you can look out for too.

One of the Juice highchair's strongest standout features is the way it grows with a child - an impressive selling point in a world of baby products that only last a few months.
