Short answer

The Chicco Chairy Booster Seat (opens in a new tab) is our best overall because it is the one seat here that states its own weight, 2.5 kg, and folds without removing the tray. A booster seat for a baby comes in two forms. One is a small seat that attaches to a dining chair or sits on the floor. The other is a high chair that turns into a booster later. This guide covers three of the first kind and three of the second. The Ingenuity Baby Base 2-in-1 Seat (opens in a new tab) has a tray that goes in the dishwasher. The Graco Swivi Seat 3-in-1 Booster (opens in a new tab) rotates and reclines. The three convertible high chairs keep the booster stage going for older children.

Where a maker does not say, the table and blocks below show not stated. Upright modes are for a child who can sit unaided, and a child should never be left unattended in any of these seats.

Joie's Multiply is a high chair first. Its manual chart then shows infant booster and toddler booster modes, with further toddler seating beyond that.

Joie says the Multiply is approved to the European standards EN 14988, EN 16120 and NF-D60-300. It also lists a footrest with 3 positions.

  • It folds, and the manual shows how.

Pick #5

Graco SimpleSwitch High Chair and Booster

Brand: Graco
View on Amazon for Graco SimpleSwitch High Chair and Booster (opens in a new tab)
  • Max weight16.8 kg

The SimpleSwitch is a highchair for a child up to 3 years. It then converts to a feeding booster attached to a chair. The highchair weight limit is 37 pounds (16.8 kg). In booster form the limit is up to 60 pounds (27.3kg).

In booster form, Graco says, the restraining system must hold the child at all times. That lasts until the child can climb in and out unaided, at about 2 1/2 years.

Pros

  • The booster weight limit is well above the highchair limit.
  • The straps can change to a 3-point set.

  • Graco's manual gives no minimum age for the Swivi, so check it before using the infant recline mode.

Suits: Parents who want a highchair now and a chair-mounted booster after.

Falls short: The age range given is for the highchair only, so the booster stage has no age given.

How to choose

Chair-mounted or free-standing

A strap-on booster takes little room. The Chicco Chairy and the Ingenuity Baby Base attach to dining chairs and also work on the floor. The three convertible high chairs begin as high chairs. The Graco SimpleSwitch later becomes a booster attached to a chair.

If you want a full high chair, read the best high chair for baby guide.

Straps and belts

Check how the child is held. The Graco seats list 5-point straps that can change to a 3-point set. Chicco lists safety straps and a 3 point belt. Ingenuity lists child straps and adjustable chair straps. Joie lists a 5-point buckle.

Tray and cleaning

Ingenuity says its tray is dishwasher safe. Chicco says its padding is hand washable. For the others, the makers' pages used here do not say, so read the manual. On the Graco Swivi, remember the tray cannot stay on when the seat reclines.

Portability

Chicco states a seat weight and a fold. The Joie Multiply also folds. Ingenuity and the Graco seats do not state either. If you travel with the seat, put this ahead of everything else on the list.

Sitting and supervision

For upright modes the child should be able to sit unaided. BSI says EN 14988 covers highchairs for children up to 3 years who sit unaided, and Joie's Mimzy Recline manual asks the same for highchair use. Chicco's Polly highchair manual says never to leave the child unattended, and that advice fits every seat in this guide. The Graco Swivi's manual gives no minimum age, so confirm it before using the seat for a young infant.

Age and weight

Age ranges differ by a wide margin. Chicco and Ingenuity stop at 36 months. The Graco Swivi lists a feeding booster to 5 years. The Graco Blossom goes to 6 years. Of the two small strap-on seats, only Ingenuity states a weight limit.

Verdict

The right seat depends on where your child will eat.

For travel, the Chicco Chairy Booster Seat is our best overall, since it states a seat weight and folds. The Ingenuity Baby Base 2-in-1 Seat suits a home where tray cleaning matters. The Graco Swivi Seat 3-in-1 Booster fits families who want rotation and recline in one seat.

For a longer plan, pick a convertible. The Joie Multiply 6in1 High Chair and the Graco Blossom Convertible High Chair both reach 6 years, the joint longest range here. The Graco SimpleSwitch High Chair and Booster is the simpler two-stage choice. The best high chair for baby guide leads with the Joie Multiply because it covers a chair with its own legs, a different need from a strap-on seat.

Frequently asked questions

Can a young baby use a booster seat?

Chicco and Ingenuity both give a starting age on their product pages. The Graco Swivi has an infant recline mode, but its manual gives no minimum age. Match the age to your baby before you buy, and use upright modes only once the child can sit unaided.

How is a booster different from a high chair?

A high chair has its own legs. A booster sits on an adult chair or on the floor. Some products, such as the Graco SimpleSwitch, do both in turn.

Will a booster fit any dining chair?

Ingenuity says its adjustable straps attach to most dining chairs. Chicco says its seat attaches to a dining chair. The makers' pages used here do not give chair size limits, so test the fit with your own chair.

Which seats are easy to wash?

Ingenuity lists a dishwasher safe tray. Chicco lists removable, hand washable padding. Graco and Joie give less cleaning detail in the pages used here.

Can these seats go on the floor?

Chicco says the Chairy works as a floor chair from 12 months. Ingenuity says its seat works on the floor. The Graco and Joie convertibles do not describe floor use in the pages used here.

Do these products meet a safety standard?

Among these, only Joie names European standards, and only for the Multiply. They include EN 14988, which BSI describes as covering highchairs for children who sit unaided. That is the maker's own claim. Check the label and the retailer's page for the model you buy.

Which seat has recline?

The Graco Swivi, the Joie Multiply and the two Graco high chairs list recline positions. Chicco and Ingenuity do not state any.
