The Mockingbird high chair is easily one of the best high chairs currently on the market. It's neutral and minimalist design ensures it'll look great in your house without taking up too much space.
You can adjust the footrest and tray without any tools. The design features minimal crevices making it easy to wipe clean. The tray liner and 3-point safety harness can even be removed and tossed in the dishwasher for even easier cleaning too. It's not the most expensive or the cheapest - yet it solves all the common complaints parents have with high chairs.
It ships for free and you get a 30 day at-home trial.

Thank you for sharing!! SUPER HELPFUL

STRAP CLARIFICATION: It has a 5 point harness actually - i kept getting confused because its 3 points that clip together, but the two shoulder straps each have two points that connect to the buckle. So basically unlike some strollers where you have to connect each of the five points into a star at the buckle, two of the five points connect in a buckle on either arm, and then those two buckles go into the crotch strap. You can see this best when i show the straps tucked in the strap holder and flip them around to clean, how it shows the 4 points (fifth being groin). I hope that makes sense!

Have you seen or tried out the Bugaboo Giraffe Complete High Chair? It seems similar adjustment wise however it’s hard to beat the easy wipe straps. Also, the tray looks possibly more narrow, I am unsure if it works well with silicone bottomed plates, and curious as to how easy it is to clean and if there are any pesky crevices for crumbs to accumulate. I would love to see a review on this new high chair or at least some thoughts as it compares to the amazing Mockingbird. Love your content!

[@theconfusedmom]

I haven't gotten my hands on one, but I know people definitely like it! It's more than $100 more than the Mockingbird though. I find Mockingbirds straps to be infinitely easier to clean than the Bugaboo from what I'm seeing online (and the seat as a whole due to the way the bugaboo's harness is); but Bugaboo's foot adjustment is easier (you just push a bunch and slide, while Mockingbird you have to twist + release before sliding, which is a nice safety feature IMO but not a big deal either way). Personally i dont think you'll go wrong with either! But i don't see how the Bugaboo is worth $100+ more than the Mockingbird.

Hi! Is the high chair able to be pushed in snug against the table (like the Tripp Trapp) in order to use the table as a tray if you were to want to?

[@theconfusedmom]

yes! I have a short clip showing this at 6:06 in this video!

[@ronjab4586]

The silicone straps look genius. But our Abiie from our first is still going strong, so we're not in the market for a new high chair for this baby 😉 Thankfully, the straps from the Abiie are removable as well, so I soak them once per week while in use with baby. I never like how much some of these style high chairs jugg out in the back on the floor - the Abiie as well. My kids keep stumbling over the ends - no such issues with the stokke knockoff junior chair that we have for the 4 and 2 year old though, thankfully The baby seat insert on the mockingbird definitely looks like the most comfy on the market for a chair like that. Does it in any way interfere with putting the seat at the table? I never really use the tray and have my babies eat at the table from the beginning. Anyway, if I had to do it again, I'd get the Hauck. It's been the standard as an affordable version of the stokke for many years in Europe and they're finally also available here (weren't yet when we had our first). They're more than double the price here compared to what they cost in Europe but still seem more affordable to comparable options of high chairs of this style here. The best thing about them is that they sell a bouncer that can be attached to the high chair, which makes it possible to be used from the beginning. I really liked that feature while visiting family.

[@theconfusedmom]

Im LOLing - you literally left this comment as I'm editing the follow up comparison and say the bouncer attachment seems like a marketing gimmick to me lol I still would choose this over the hauck, while that looks sturdy it def seems like a headache to adjust and clean still with all the connection points. For this reading these are the two she's referring to: Abiie: bit.ly/3SHSQRB Hauck: bit.ly/3vXyNGR

[@theconfusedmom]

Oh yes and it does push up well to a table like any other chair! I show it *very briefly* in a short clip that's probably easy to miss as I was at a neighrbors since we dont have a kitchen table lol

[@Relrellz]

They’re marketing to only US customers? They don’t ship to Canada. How hard is it for a company to set up international shipping?

[@Ct-eh1kv]

They dont ship in Canada 😢 my brother in US is getting mine for my baby shower

[@porshC710]

can this be used with newborns?

[@theconfusedmom]

No it’s when a baby shows sign of being ready to eat solids. I talk about newborn options in the next video coming out in a week!

[@KarenMartinez-tt2vf]

Do you have a discount code?

[@theconfusedmom]

Tcm maybe? I can’t remember if I have one but that’s what I usually set it at

[@lindsayj7907]

I watched this video 2 times and unfortunately i just can't understand you. Please, please, slow down when you speak so these videos can be helpful to everyone.

[@theconfusedmom]

I was sick when recording this so my voice wasn’t all there, but I do talk fast regardless which isn’t changing 😆 there is a gear to slow down the rate or a blog post in the description that basically everything in the video and more if it goes too fast and chapters in the video for you to visually see any point in talking about you’re interested in. Hope that helps!
