How to choose a high chair for your baby?
security
"The most important thing when choosing a high chair is to ensure safety," says pediatrician Martine Le Conte. For this, check that the product complies with European regulations: the standard label "NF S54-007" must appear on it. You will also need to pay attention to the weight supported by the model you choose, even though many brands offer scalable models that will accompany your child throughout its growth. Finally, the seat should be reinforced with harnesses for the arms and crotch, to prevent baby do not rock.
Solidity
Another important aspect is the solidity. Whether it's a wooden model that you want to keep for a long time, or a plastic and metal model, the high chair of your baby must especially withstand all weather conditions! Yes, growing up baby move more, give kicks, put mashed potatoes everywhere ... in short, he brings hell to this high chair. Check that the materials used are correctly arranged and that there is no fault during assembly, otherwise your chair may be less solid than expected.
Comfort
For your baby it takes absolute comfort, even when eating. Moreover brands are not mistaken because there are high chairs with padded cushions, and reclining backs! The comfort of use for the parents is also to take into account: it is that you will be able to sit easily your child in this chair?
congestion
If you live in a house, this point does not concern you. But for all city dwellers and small apartment dwellers, think about it! The wooden high chairs, very solid and for many evolutionary (like the famous Trip Trap of Stokke) are practically indestructible, but very bulky. Other models are possible, such as table seats, which fold and get carried away easily. One thing is for sure, the high chair is an investment in the long run, better compare several models to be sure of his choice!
