The Bugaboo Giraffe is the closest rival to the Tripp Trapp, and it fixes the Stokke's biggest gap by including the tray. For $419.00 the box holds the chair, a baby set with a removable quick-click 5-point harness and the tray. Bugaboo says you click and slide the seat and footrest to adjust them in one second, with no tools, and the chair has 5 seat positions and 9 footrest positions. With the baby set it is for 6 to 36 months (max. 33 lbs); without accessories it is for 36 months and up and holds up to 220 lbs. An optional newborn set lets you use it from birth to 6 months. At 11 lbs it is the lightest wooden chair on this list, and the frame is FSC certified beechwood with a Greenguard Gold certification. Cleaning is with a damp cloth. Bugaboo adds an extended 4-year warranty and free delivery and returns. The price is the highest here.
