Amish High Chair

Picking a high chair for you new baby is a big step—you want to be sure you pick the right one, but have you considered an Amish high chair?

Typically, it is not a first choice for many, but with a little information, you may find it to be just right for you and your baby.

Traditional high chairs are all very similar in their basic design; plastic, four legs, snap in eating tray, and a seat fabric which can be easily wiped down or washed. Sounds simple enough right? Well, it is, but typically after your baby outgrows this short stage of their life this piece of “furniture” becomes virtually useless and is thrown away.

With these custom-made works of art, the experience is a little different. As many people know, the Amish are known for the delicate handiwork and durable craftsmanship.  Built by the Amish means built to last and with a special baby seat fashioned by those with such attention to detail, you will certainly know that you got your money’s worth.

While it can be a little heavier and a little more expensive, many people enjoy the unique and sturdy look.  Also, they often come in 2 traditional styles with 3 traditional finishes.

You may choose to have a high chair with a restraint bar and harness. This kind of chair is great for the little “monkeys” in the family.  The chair will serve as a suitable form of restraint for the child while you give them some lunch.

For something a little more original and old-fashioned, you could try one with no restraints. These are basically just like chairs, but they’re higher, hence the name “high chair.” These chairs, although also made sturdily and carefully, can pose a real threat for young children if left unattended because they have no bar to hold them in place.

As for finishes, many of these high chairs come in a variety of stains and woods, however the 3 most common include oak, maple, and cherry.

All in all, the Amish high chair is made extremely well and can be a fun, custom alternative to the traditional high chairs found in local chain stores.
