Ranked #3 in Best Baby High Chairs

Inglesina Fast Table Chair

4.3

4 sources2 derived$79as of Aug 1

Kid Travel scored the Inglesina Fast Table Chair 74 out of 100, placing it high among portable highchairs for portability and how little space it takes. Its bracket system screws straight onto a tabletop, which works well in small apartments or on trips. Tables with box aprons are a problem, and some users found the assembly instructions confusing. Parents who want a light, portable seat should look at it, as long as they can live with it not fitting every table.

Strengths

— High portability score (94) due to space-saving design that screws directly to standard tabletops
— Easy setup time of 6 minutes with no tools required
— Durable construction with rubber-coated brackets and secure installation method

Watch-outs

— Not compatible with tables that have box aprons which create a lip on the table
— Tray may not fit properly on some table types
— Assembly instructions are primarily pictorial with limited written guidance

Mockingbird High Chair

4.5

2 sourcesall derived$249as of Aug 1

The Mockingbird High Chair is a 2-in-1 convertible seat that turns from high chair into child chair as your kid grows. Reviewers praised the tool-free adjustments, the small footprint, and how easily it cleans, thanks to a smooth rounded seat with almost no crevices. Parenting and feeding experts recommend it for the ergonomic design and sturdy build. It was sold out at the time of review and costs $249, which will stop some buyers. Parents who want one chair that lasts and stays clean will like it; those on a tight budget or needing it immediately won't.

Strengths

— Converts from high chair to child chair as the child grows
— Tool-free adjustments make setup and use easy
— Exceptionally easy to clean due to smooth rounded seat and minimal crevices

Watch-outs

— Not available in stock at time of review
— Price point at $249 may be considered high by some buyers

How they stack up

Inglesina Fast Table Chair

The Inglesina Fast Table Chair is more portable and space-saving than the Mockingbird High Chair and Baby Jogger City Bistro, but it's less stable and lacks the adjustable features of the Stokke Tripp Trapp High Chair 2 and Evenflo Bria RightSeat Multistage High Chair. It's more versatile than the Stokke Clikk in terms of table compatibility, though it's not as easy to adjust as the Evenflo Bria. Unlike the Mockingbird High Chair, it doesn't convert into a child chair, and it's less durable than the Stokke Tripp Trapp.

Mockingbird High Chair

The Mockingbird High Chair stands out from the Stokke Tripp Trapp and Stokke Clikk for its tool-free adjustments and seamless transition from high chair to child chair, offering a longer lifespan than models like the Baby Jogger City Bistro which lacks this convertibility. Unlike the Inglesina Fast Table Chair, it doesn't rely on table attachment and provides a more traditional seating experience, though it's not available in stock at the time of review. Compared to the Evenflo Bria RightSeat Multistage High Chair, it offers a simpler design without multiple modes but excels in cleaning ease and footprint efficiency.
