Most high chairs are used for just a year or two before a child moves on to a regular chair or booster seat. If yours is sitting folded up in storage, selling it can help another family while freeing up space in your home.
Sell It on IPF
IPF is India’s biggest platform for second-hand baby products, built by and for parents who want to buy and sell preloved baby gear — including high chairs. Listing is completely free, and IPF doesn’t charge sellers any commission — you keep 100% of what you sell for. A small commission is charged to the buyer instead. Every transaction is protected by in-app escrow, so payment only releases once everything checks out. Once your listing is live, IPF’s doorstep pickup and drop service handles the handover, so you don’t have to meet a stranger or step out of your home.
With that sorted, here’s how to get your high chair sold fast.
1. Clean It Thoroughly
A clean high chair sells much faster. Before listing:
- Remove and wash the seat cushion or fabric if removable
- Wipe down the tray and any food residue in the tray tracks
- Clean crevices, hinges, and the seat’s back panel where crumbs collect
- Sanitise the harness straps and buckle by hand
- Wipe down the legs and any fold mechanisms
2. Check That Everything Works
Buyers want reassurance that the high chair is stable and safe. Before listing, confirm:
- The chair sits level and doesn’t wobble
- Harness buckles securely and straps aren’t frayed
- Height adjustment mechanism moves smoothly through all positions
- Tray attaches, detaches, and locks properly
- Folding mechanism (if any) opens and closes easily and locks in place
- Wheels (if any) roll and lock properly
Mention any cosmetic wear, stains, or minor damage honestly — it builds buyer trust and avoids disputes later.
3. Take Clear Photos
Include photos of:
- Front view, fully assembled
- Side view showing recline or height settings
- Tray removed and attached
- Harness and buckle close-up
- Folded view, if it folds
- Any wear, stains, or scratches
- Brand logo or label
Natural daylight helps showcase the high chair’s true condition.
4. Include Important Details
Your listing should mention:
- Brand and model
- Purchase year
- Condition
- Age/weight range it’s rated for
- Whether it converts (to a toddler chair or booster, for instance)
- Included accessories like the tray insert, cushion, or wheels
- Any missing parts, if applicable
5. Price It Fairly
Well-known, sturdy high chair brands with adjustable or convertible features tend to hold better resale value. Compare similar listings to set a competitive, realistic price.
6. Respond Quickly
Prompt replies build buyer confidence and significantly increase your chances of a successful sale.
Final Thoughts
A well-presented high chair can often sell within days. Clean it, check it for stability and safety, photograph it well, describe it honestly, and price it fairly.
