hauck Alpha Bouncer 2in1, Disney Bambi Rose - Baby Seat for Alpha+ Wooden Highchair with Bouncing Frame, 3-Point Hip Harness & Seat Reducer, from Birth up to 9 kg

Happy so far, easy to clean, compact and looks nice.

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.

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.

Nice and solid high chair very easy to clean decent size love the design shame you have to order a tray separately but will last a very long time definitely built to last

Beautifully crafted high chair which can be adjusted as children grow.

Prefect for my toddler son who isn’t tall enough on normal chair. Quality build and definitely will last long.

We love the high chair but cannot find any way of fitting the harness as we cannot remove the metal clasp at the end.

The high chair is great quality for the price. Definitely feels like a dupe of the Stokke Tripp Trapp. When you read the instructions you need 6 dowels but have 4 provided loose. The other two are already in one of the wooden pieces.The newborn attachment works well on the high chair but as a standalone rocker I’m dubious. It isn’t very stable side to side and isn’t very smooth on the rock back and forwards. Mainly purchased for use on the high chair so not much of a deal breaker but if you’re looking to combine use it may not be for you. I wanted it to keep baby away from the dogs on the floor. May have to buy a second floor bouncer once I’m more confident with the dogs.
