Best highchairs compared in 2026

I've compared five highchairs from the 29 October 2026 price snapshot, with prices from £29.95 to £329.95. A title or age claim doesn't prove every mode suits every age, so I'd read the manual for age and mode limits before choosing, especially for younger babies.

Joie Mimzy Micro Compact Highchair - Fleck

Our recommended starting point

Joie Mimzy Micro Compact Highchair - Fleck

I'd choose the Joie Mimzy Micro at £29.95 because it's the cheapest here and the listing is clear: lightweight, folds flat and suits 6 months to 3 years. That's a plain, useful description for a basic seat. I'd still check the manual for weight limits and how the tray and straps work.

Joie Mimzy Micro Compact Highchair - Fleck

Best Basic Folding Seat

Joie Mimzy Micro Compact Highchair - Fleck

£29.95Price snapshot · 29 October 2026

I'd choose this for its low price and clear listing, as long as a simple seat is enough.

The Joie Mimzy Micro Compact Highchair in Fleck is £29.95, the lowest price here. The listing says it's lightweight, folds flat and suits 6 months to 3 years. That's fewer features than pricier chairs, so I'd check the manual for weight limits and whether the tray and footrest are adjustable.

What we like

  • Lowest price here at £29.95
  • Folds flat and listed as lightweight

What to check

  • What are the weight limit and folded dimensions? Neither is listed
  • Is the tray adjustable or removable?

Best Full Baby Set Bundle

Cybex Click & Fold 4in1 Highchair Set – Dark Natural

£329.95Price snapshot · 29 October 2026

I'd consider this if the extras matter to you, but I'd check each accessory's limits.

The Cybex Click & Fold 4-in-1 Set in Dark Natural is £329.95, the priciest here. It has a solid beechwood chair, and the set includes a baby set, tray, bouncer nest, newborn inlay, head hugger and adapter. The listing gives a chair maximum of 120kg and birth to approx. 99 years, but I'd check the manual for each accessory's limits.

Gourmet Highchair

Best for Newborn Recline Mode

Gourmet Highchair

£135Price snapshot · 29 October 2026

I'd look at this if you want recline options, but I'd read the manual on the lie-flat mode.

The Silver Cross Gourmet is £135. The listing says newborn to 15kg (approx. 3 years), with a cushioned 5-position recline including a lie-flat mode for newborns, 7 heights and a 3-position footrest.

What we like

  • 5-position recline with a lie-flat newborn mode per the listing
  • 7 heights and a 3-position footrest

What to check

  • What does the manual say about using the lie-flat mode?
  • Does the tray divider really go in the dishwasher, as listed?
