Alpha+, Walnut - Wooden High Chair 6 Months to Adult Sustainable FSC® Certified Beechwood Toddler Feeding and Entertainment Chair, Inclusive 5-Point Harness Bumper Bar Crotch Strap

After loving the look of the Tripp trapp high chair and impressed with the reviews for it but being less impressed by the price, I decided to really look at other similar chairs that were more affordable and decided on the Huack alpha+ and I have zero negatives to say about it so far! Not only is it aesthetically pleasing, but like the Tripp trapp, I love that you can buy the additional tray and newborn seat if needed. We bought this for our baby at 6 months, so the newborn seat wasn’t required, though I did buy the additional tray which I highly recommend to others. The tray is quite structured and has a bar that goes between the baby’s legs, which really helped my little boy from slipping down as he is quite petite (<9th centile) and looks tiny compared to most conventional high chairs. But even when the high chair and tray has been used by my much bigger 18 month old nephew (99th centile), I would say getting the additional tray is still worth it as you can remove the tray for easy cleaning and the baby won’t have smeared food over your dining room table, especially if you’re following baby led weaning. The chair itself is excellent quality and very sturdy but doesn’t take up too much room and due to its design can be pushed in under the table (if not using the tray attachment.) My husband was able to assemble it easily enough, though did find that to fit the tray attachment he had to partly dissemble the chair to fit the tray attachment and then rebuild it, however this wasn’t too much trouble and didn’t take too long. As no tiny nooks or crannies like in conventional high chairs, it’s very easy to wipe clean with a damp cloth after use. Also lots of wipeable cushions that fit the Hauck alpha available on Amazon/other online retailers if you want your child to have some padding to make them more comfortable whilst in the chair. Overall I love the chair and this has been one of my favourite baby purchases! Can’t be beaten for the price.

This is a great chair, gives our toddler lots of independence and he sits very comfortably at the table. It's sturdy and looks great. So much cheaper than other similar chairs too. I can see my son using this for a long time.

We have currently been using it with the baby seat add on (used from the bouncer) . It has been fantastic to use it with our 7 day old baby whilst we eat our dinner. It felt like some normality to sit and eat at the table during this very surreal and life changing time!! It is sturdy. Was easy to build and easy to switch between different seat styles. And the value for miney is brilliant as I was looking at a much more expensive brand of this style originally.

Great chair one of the best baby purchases we’ve made recently would have given it 5 starts if it had come with the tray included

I have a larger than average 1yr old who is really very strong and found out that in his previous high chair he could bounce it across the kitchen. With this being less than ideal and us having to tether him to the kitchen table, we decided to upgrade to a more suitable, heavier designed highchair that can grow with him. The design of this chair is solid as a rock, it can be adjusted as needed with the change of a few screws etc. The assembly is easy enough, but can be fairly fiddly balancing heavy wooden pieces and trying to thread screws so would recommend a second pair of hands. I personally love that he feels super secure in this, the straps as so easy to take off and wash and the chair is easy to wipe clean for the next use. It goes well in the kitchen and tucks beautifully under the table when not in use. I have also perched on this occasionally when gathered round the table and it takes my weight (60kg) and feels very sturdy so I have faith that this will last for many years to come. A little more on the expensive side, however I would undoubtedly buy this again in the future if ever I needed it and I wished I had bought this in the beginning, as the cheap option I initially chose was most definitely not the best one as it did not last us more than 6 months.

We have a Tripp trapp for my older son and I can’t see much of a difference in quality between the two. My almost 2 year old was escaping from his small plastic high chair and slipping the straps - he can safely climb up and down onto this, but the five point harness provided also means he can’t get out if we don’t want him down. It took 5/10 minutes to put together with no instructions (turns out they are between the two seat pieces!)- all with an alan key which is provided. Putting it next to the TT I would say the top seat height is about an inch lower, but I don’t think that affects the baby bit as that seems to clip in differently if you’re using it. My son is quite short (80cm) and it is high enough for him to be comfortably sat at the table. I would also note that the TT comes with two plastic extensions to stop it tipping on the high settings - presumably because of the Z shape. There is no need for anything like that on this as it has a much more sturdy design. It does come with a bar across the front, but my son is too big for that. Would be great for a one year old though. I also like that it doesn’t look as though we have one expensive chair and one cheaper one! They look nice next to each other.

What a faff to assemble! Once assembled, my baby absolutely loved it so all good! You need a lot of patience with this item! Every time I was trying to assemble the backrest which has 2 parts, one would always fall out whilst assembling the other.... got there in the end tho. Also need to mention that there are no indication of how far the seat plate and foot rest is supposed to go so you sort of have to guess. I got the grey one and when putting on and removing the tray base ( bought separately) the paint chipped on the first go, I thought it would be a bit better quality. Don’t get me wrong, the chair itself is amazing and sturdy, just the way it needs to be assembled is a nightmare... it is worth the money as my boy is very happy in it!!!

The product is easy enough to put together. Is neat and attractive and comfortable for babies and toddlers. Using one for a baby and one for a toddler. The toddler is comfortable and seat is great for having toddler at table with whole family, however the safety bar is not moveable once seat assembled and it can be hard getting the toddler in and out of the seat (not 2.5 years yet). The baby is comfortable (use it with the add-on tray and baby bar) and it's a good fit. However the five point harness cannot be used with the baby tray add-on but is still required for small babies. All in all it's a decent product but has some definite design flaws The quality of the product is fine, not great. Had to send a seat back as it arrived with faults in the legs and the metal bar.

Great chair to a great price. Only thing is that it's a bit tight by the piece in front of them.

We received our chair with missing pieces. Reaching out to. Customer service was easy and they were very happy to correct any issues. The high chair itself is great quality, and super cute!

Compliments my table so well! Buying another one. Easy to assemble

Lovely alternate to the stupidly expensive Tripp Trapp or whatever it is called. Sturdy. Easy to adjust. Good footrest. Grows with baby. A little bit big at first but we made a few adjustments for the baby to be more comfortable. Ready to clean the tray. Instruction are a little hard to follow but we watched a few videos and finally reasoned it out.

I have two of these high chairs now, one for my 3-year-old and one for my 8-month-old and I absolutely love it! Especially now that I was able to get the tray insert for my youngest. I found it to be very easy to assemble as long as you have a little bit of common sense. I also find it to be very sturdy. The height and color are perfect for our table and I love that it grows with them. Shoulder straps are the only thing I've ever had trouble with, but honestly I just wrap the straps around his waist and that was enough to keep him in if need be. Included photos of the seat in 3 different stages. Love it!! Highly recommend.
