The Maxi-Cosi Ava High Chair is a compact, space-saving high chair designed for families who want a seat for mealtimes that doesn't take over the room. Weighing just 4.8 kg with an ultra-compact fold, it can be used from birth up to around 3 years (0–15 kg), so it carries your baby through those early months and into the transition from milk to solid foods and shared family meals.
Ava works in two modes — as a highchair and as a recline cradle — with a padded seat and adjustable positions that adapt as your child grows. It's part of Maxi-Cosi's simple, stylish compact range, made with a wood-effect finish and 100% recycled fabric so it blends into a modern living space while folding away neatly when you need the floor back.
Comfort that adapts as your child grows
The Ava offers three recline positions and a comfortable padded seat, giving your little one a supportive spot whether they're lying back in the recline cradle or sitting up. As mealtimes become a regular part of the day, three different tray positions let you adjust how close your child sits, so they stay comfortably harnessed in for breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner over the years.
Space-saving and easy to move
Ava folds extra-compactly and stands upright on its own once folded, so it tucks neatly out of sight until it's needed again. At only 4.8 kg with an integrated carrying handle, it's easy to pick up and move between rooms, and light enough to take along for a weekend away.
Built for messy meals
Mealtimes get messy, and Ava is made to keep up. The water-repellent fabrics can simply be wiped down, and the removable cover is machine washable at 30 degrees for those meals that need more than a quick clean. The tray is washable too, so the parts that take the most food make it easiest to freshen up afterwards.
Best For
The Maxi-Cosi Ava High Chair is a great option for parents who:
- Have limited space and want a high chair that folds compactly and stores out of the way
- Want a seat they can start using from birth and keep using up to around 3 years
- Prefer adjustable recline and tray positions to suit different stages
- Value a machine-washable cover and wipe-clean fabrics for quick cleaning after meals
- Move the chair around the home or travel with it and appreciate a lightweight design with a carrying handle
It may not be the best fit if you're looking for a chair with a larger footprint and fixed placement rather than a portable, foldaway design.
Disclaimer
A high chair supports your child in a seated position but is not a substitute for supervision. Always follow the supplied instructions, assemble the chair correctly, place it on a stable surface, and use the harness as directed. The tray is not a restraint. When using the recline cradle mode, follow Maxi-Cosi's guidance on how each position is intended to be used.
