Between car seats and cribs, swings and strollers, the parenting gear you need for a new baby adds up fast. So any time you can conserve space and cash by buying a product that does more than one thing, or at least grows with your child so you’re not replacing it in a year ⏤ all the better. Toddler high chairs are just such an item. The best high chairs transition from baby feeding thrones to actual chairs that older kids can use.

And while most convertible high chairs share a similar utilitarian aesthetic, there are a handful on the market that put design front and center. Not only are they highly rated, but they also look pretty damn cool in the house. And you get plenty of use out of them. Pay attention to weight limits, how easy they are to clean, and whether or not the chair grows with your child. Some can even serve them well into their teen years.
