Stokke Clikk
- Weight: 8.3 lbs.
- Weight limit: 33 lbs.
There’s a reason this chair was awarded the “Red Dot Award” for design and innovation! The simple assembly of this high chair means it’s easy to tear down and tuck away. You’re just a few clicks away from putting it together for a meal or taking it apart to carry on your next adventure with baby for family dinner at Grandma’s house.
The travel bag option is the cherry on top as you can easily take it with you or store it away once your little one outgrows it. It’s small but mighty as it weighs only eight pounds but can comfortably seat your little one up to 33 pounds. Plus with it’s cute, sleek design (including a footrest for your little + a 5-point harness), we know you’ll love the Clikk as much as we do! Oh, and did we mention it’s available in literally every colour under the rainbow?

Maxi-Cosi Minla
- Weight: 25.3 lbs.
- Weight limit: 50 lbs.
While this chair is the heaviest option in our round-up, weighing in at 25 pounds, it can also hold the most weight, up to 50 pounds. It’s also what we would refer to as “fully loaded” with its various recline positions, tray positions, and available heights, having it fold down to be compact is an even bigger bonus!
The Minla is functional, flexible and fashionable, making it a great compact high chair pick.
