With two kids under four, we use high chairs for every meal. It's so much easier to contain the kids and the mess, plus we have two extra 'adult' chairs when we have company if the kids are in their own seats. High chairs can get bulky and take up lots of space but the Joovy Nook high chair offers an alternative. It's a chair that folds up and literally fits into a 'nook' or cranny so you don't have the extra bulk in your dining area! Check out all the details about this awesome chair below.
Thanks to Joovy for sending us the Nook in black!
A Full Review of the Joovy Nook High Chair
As soon as I saw the newly redesigned Joovy Nook, I knew I would love it. It comes fully assembled which eliminates work for busy parents. With clean lines and a comfy leatherette seat it looks classy in our dining room. The Nook also fits right up to our table.
I immediately fell in love with the large tray. My ten-month-old recently decided it's fun to push food off his tray but he has a hard time doing that in this high chair. It's also great for my three-year-old to do art because she has room for her paper and markers.
This chair is also great because it has a swing-open tray that I can operate with one hand. It's so nice to pull the tray out and get my little guy down without having to completely remove it.
The dishwasher-safe insert on the tray is a lifesaver. It pops right off after a messy meal while leaving the tray in place.
There are also four depth adjustments for the tray so as your child grows you can give them more space. It's perfect from about six months until your child weighs 50 pounds!
My three-year-old thinks the chair is very comfortable and loves the footrest. The leatherette seat is SO easy to wash up after meals or art.
The harness is easy to remove with just one hand and adjusts for your child's size. My son loves to turn around and climb out of high chairs if he's not buckled so I make sure he's always strapped in!
Now we come to one of my favorite things about this chair (though the whole thing is amazing!)...folding it up! Our dining room isn't huge and I don't like having big high chairs taking up space when we're not using them. The Joovy Nook is the PERFECT solution to this problem because it folds down and becomes so small! Check out this tiny latch-it's all you need to fold the chair up.
With one hand you push the lever and pull up on the handle, and the whole chair folds down into itself. On top of that, it has a carrying handle so you can easily move it for storage. Look how tiny it gets!
The Joovy Nook is a perfect high chair for our house and I know it will be great for travel also. My mom saw it and said that she'd also love one for when we come to visit them. She and my dad have no reason to keep a big high chair around but it's nice to have something for the kids to sit in when we have meals there. With the Nook, she could easily bring it out for the kids and then store it when we head back home.
I absolutely love this chair and I know we will use it for years to come! I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for a classy high chair who also wants to save some space.
BUY IT: You can purchase the Joovy Nook in Black, Charcoal, or Turquoise on Amazon or find a retailer near you using the Joovy store locator.

LOVE that compact fold down!! We live in an apartment and my last high chair was SUCH an eye sore!! Even when folded!! It was so huge I couldn't figure out where to put it lol!! I also love that the tray pivots out!! So much easier to take the kiddos out of the highchair one handed!!

Our current highchair tray has rails that you have to line up to slide the tray on, a one handed swing out tray sounds so much easier.

Heather L. says
I like that this high chair will fold up. That would be a huge plus for us considering our current high chair will not fold and seems to take up quite a bit of space but, what I love most of all is the one hand motion. Not having to worry about fumbling around to get everything in the right spot or maybe pinching fingers by accident is always a huge worry of mine. .
Marisol avila says
I love the look of the Nook. I live in a house with not much space and this will fit great. Especially since my little guy is the stages of starting to eat. I really need to get him a high chair. He currently uses his swong but i thinknthis chair will fit him better.
Caitlyn Hudson says

We are expecting our first baby and there are so many different brands and styles of everything. As I've been researching and looking around, this seems to be a WONDERFUL product! Love the ability to fold down to a nice size and the swinging one handed way to open the tray! There are many great thing to say about this I feel like I could go on and on! Winning this would help out tremendously with baby expenses!

This is exactly what we need! We are limited on space and the fact that it folds down so it won't be in the way is perfect. Also like that it has a large tray so less mess will fall on the floor.

This space chair has dishware safe parts! That was what exactly I was looking for! I love the neutral colors as well! It definitely would look great in my kitchen
Gabby Anderson says

gloria patterson says
So many great features on these chairs #1 FOLDUP ---- today with small apartments you need to be able to put the chair out of the way. The tray is so cold the way it opens...... My niece just had a little girl and would love to win and give to her.

Tracy Steinheimer says
I Love that this is foldable ???
Alyssa Cross says
I love how modern this highchair is!
Liz Ticona says
I've always said any baby gear that you can operate with 1 hand is the gear that all moms should get! When you have a little one, when do you ever have both hands available? I have 2 boys & the fact that you can swing the tray w/ one hand only is genius! And on top that, they also were clever to make a highchair that doesn't take a huge amount of space, because well our houses are filled with toys now 🙂 & love that the tray is big enough because little ones don't just eat there, they also build their creations of playdoh on it so we need room! 🙂 Love it!!! I actually need a 2nd highchair because I only have 1 & i can never feed my boys at the same time...crossing fingers!
kayla sheehan says
im loving the fact that the tray swivels out. Easily my fav feature!
Catherine Arnett says
Very Sleek and safe looking.
Cindy Kong says
What a great idea to have a folding highchair! Thanks for the review.

I like the removable tray on top. That would make cleaning so much easier. I would not a have a large tray sitting out of my sink drying1
Joanna Price says
I love how well it folds up and stores! Awesome.
Aletha D'Amico says
I love the swing out tray! So convenient!
Brianna Beers says
Yes, OMG! I love the swig open tray to take out my lil one. The other styles where I have to remove the tray is such a trip hazard in my home with having 4 children. I also love that it folds up so compact! Great review!
Jamie S says
ok, i love that it folds up, that would be a huge problem-solver for two toddlers in a tiny space... but even more so, I LOVE the swing tray and removable insert! Taking the entire tray off the one I have now and washing it and finding somewhere to store it while it dries is such a pain. Great chair and a very informative review!
Richard Hicks says
I like that it can be folded up and put away and the tray adjustments too
Jo-Ann Brightman says
I love how compact the highchair can be made. I also like all the different positions.
