Since they will become a regular feature of the dining room, being "Easy to clean" and stylish are important factors in deciding which high chair to buy, something our three top high chairs have in common.
Here are the high chair brands our readers love, as voted by Australian parents in this year's Essential Baby Parents' Choice Awards 2016.
