VELANO high chairs — comfort from the very first spoonfuls
A feeding high chair makes weaning tidy and safe: your child sits at the family table at the same level as everyone else, securely held by a five-point harness, while you keep your hands free and gently build a mealtime routine. Most VELANO models are designed for a baby from 6 months — exactly when first foods are introduced — and grow with the child thanks to an adjustable seat height, reclining backrest and footrest. The range also includes 2-in-1 convertibles that turn from a full-height chair into a low chair with a play table, so they last for years. We explain how to choose well in our detailed guide to choosing a high chair.
Before you buy a high chair, check the removable tray (it should be dishwasher-friendly), the stability of the base, the width when open and how compactly it folds. VELANO's soft inserts and wipe-clean covers come clean with a damp cloth, while lockable wheels let you move the chair safely around the kitchen. For travel and walks, take a look at our strollers, and for safe car journeys our car seats sized to your child's height. Buying for a shop or a chain? Wholesale is available too, with fast shipping.
FAQ
From what age can a child use a high chair?
A high chair is used from around 6 months — exactly when first foods are introduced and your baby can sit confidently with support. Choose a model with a five-point harness, an adjustable reclining backrest and a footrest. Before 6 months and confident sitting, feeding a child in an upright high chair is not recommended.
What is a 2-in-1 high chair?
A 2-in-1 high chair is a convertible that turns from a full-height feeding chair into a low child's chair with a play table. This model grows with the child and lasts for years: first as a weaning spot at the family table, then as furniture for play and activities. It's more economical than buying two separate items.
How do I choose a safe high chair?
A safe high chair has a stable, wide base that won't tip over, a five-point harness, a crotch post and lockable wheels. Check for secure height and recline locks and no sharp edges. The removable tray should clean easily. Base stability and the harness are the main things to look at before buying.
How do I care for and clean a high chair?
Wash the removable tray right after feeding — on many models it is dishwasher-friendly. Wipe soft inserts and wipe-clean covers with a damp cloth, or remove and wash them per the label. Wipe the frame with a damp cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals. Cleaning after every meal keeps it hygienic and extends its life.
Until what age is a high chair needed?
A classic high chair is useful until around age 3, while the child sits at the family table and still needs support and a harness. 2-in-1 convertibles last longer — as a low chair with a play table they're used well beyond age 3. Go by the child's height, weight and independence rather than age alone.
