What ages can the Stokke Tripp Trapp be used for?

With the right additions, you can use the Stokke Tripp Trapp from birth into adulthood!

The Stokke Tripp Trapp chair on its own is designed to support a child comfortably from 3 years and older, but the most popular way to purchase this chair is as the Tripp Trapp High Chair that includes the baby set and harness for use from 6 months (when your baby can begin sitting up on their own and starts eating solid food) up to 3 years or can comfortably sit in the seat without support of the baby set and harness. It can even bring your newborn to the table earlier than 6 months with the addition of the Stokke Tripp Trapp Newborn set. Here are the approximate ages for each setting of the Tripp Trapp chair:

• Stokke Tripp Trapp Chair with Newborn set: birth - 6 months
• Stokke Tripp Trapp High Chair: 6 months - 3 years
• Stokke Tripp Trapp Chair: 3 years - adulthood (242lb weight capacity)

Your baby will be spending a lot of their time in the chair when it's in the High Chair setting with the Baby Set and harness, so we'll explore how to use the Baby Set with your infant and toddler.

How do you put a baby in a Stokke high chair?

When fitting your child in the Stokke Tripp Trapp high chair in the baby set with harness, Stokke advises that the baby set is intended for use from the time your child can sit unaided (at approximately 6 months old) until 36 months of age, when child weighs 33 pounds, or when the child can go safely in and out of the chair on its own accord, whichever occurs first. As long as your child is in the baby set, they will also be using the five point harness that is attached to the baby set to ensure your child's safety. The harness is adjustable at multiple points for a secure but comfortable fit!

To adjust the seat bottom and leg rest as your child grows, you can follow these guidelines from the manufacturer to ensure your child is seated at a comfortable angle and safe position in the seat:

What ages can use the Tripp Trapp baby set?

The Stokke Tripp Trapp Baby Set setting is designed for use from around 6 months old, when your child can sit up unaided, up to 3 years of age.

Bring your child right up to the table with the Tripp Trapp and baby set so they can join the rest of the family at mealtime and learn and develop alongside parents and siblings. A high back and side rails provide support while allowing freedom of movement in the seat, while the easily adjustable (and easy to clean!) 5-point harness keeps your child secure.

Add a softly padded cushion to the baby set stage for comfort and a pop of color and personality.

You should remove the baby set, which attaches and detaches without need for tools, once your child reaches around 36 months or 33 pounds, when your child can safely get in and out of the chair on their own.
