Quelle chaise haute choisir ? Le guide KODIF selon vos besoins

Choosing a professional high chair is not just about selecting an aesthetic model. In a restaurant, hotel, nursery, community, or public-access establishment, the high chair is regularly used, moved, cleaned, and stored.

Therefore, it must be adapted to your furniture, the available space, and your team's organization. Should you choose a high chair with or without a tray? A stackable, nestable, or foldable model? A wooden or polyethylene chair? With wheels? And which chair should you choose if your establishment has high tables?

KODIF offers a complete range of professional high chairs for children intended for restaurants, hotels, cafes, nurseries, communities, and public-access establishments.

Which high chair to choose?

The best model isn't necessarily the same for everyone: MENINO for a simple and compact solution, EUROBAMBINO for versatility, BRISE for lightness, SUPAFLAT PRO when space is limited, PRE FLEX for the tray and mobility, or even EUROBAMBINO High Version for elevated tables. The comparison below will help you quickly identify the models suited to your needs.

How to choose a professional high chair?

1. With or without a tray?

A high chair without a tray allows the child to be seated directly at the adult table. This configuration is particularly advantageous in restaurants: it limits clutter and also avoids teams having an extra tray to clean and store.

If, on the other hand, you wish to create an independent dining space for the child, choose a model with a tray such as the SUPAFLAT PRO, the PRESTIGE, or the PRE FLEX.

2. Stackable, nestable, or foldable?

If you have several high chairs and a storage area, stackable models allow you to group several chairs vertically.

Nestable models, like the PRE FLEX, fit into one another and also help reduce floor space.

Finally, when you have very little storage space, an extra-flat foldable chair like the SUPAFLAT PRO is a particularly relevant solution.

3. Wood or synthetic material?

Wood brings a warm aesthetic that is very popular in restaurants, hotels, and brasseries. MENINO, EUROBAMBINO, JURA, PRESTIGE, PRE FLEX, SUPAFLAT PRO or LEANDER LOUIE specifically meet this requirement.

Polyethylene models such as BRISE, DESIGN or KB950 prioritize ease of maintenance, resistance to repeated use, and convenient handling.

4. Consider the height of your tables

This is an often-overlooked criterion.

The EUROBAMBINO Standard has a seat height of approximately 50 cm, suitable for traditional tables.

For establishments using higher tables or furniture, the EUROBAMBINO High Version raises the seat height to 61 cm.

5. Consider your team's daily routine

A chair might be perfect for the customer but cumbersome for the staff if it's heavy, difficult to store, or complicated to clean.

In a busy establishment, weight, integrated handles, wheels, storage method, and ease of cleaning are therefore as important criteria as aesthetics.

High Chairs Without Trays

For restaurants, models without trays are particularly interesting: the child is placed directly at the table with their family, and clutter remains limited.

MENINO: simple, compact and versatile

MENINO KODIF professional high chair for restaurants

The MENINO gets straight to the point: wooden frame, no tray, and a 3-point safety harness. It allows the child to be seated directly at the table and can be stacked up to 6 chairs.

Which high chair to choose for your establishment?

For a restaurant with standard tables

Models without a tray, stackable, and easy to clean are generally the most versatile solution: MENINO, EUROBAMBINO Standard, JURA, BRISE, JUNO, DESIGN, or KB950.

For a restaurant with high tables

The EUROBAMBINO High Version is particularly interesting with its 61 cm seat height.

For an establishment with very limited storage

The SUPAFLAT PRO is hard to beat, being only 4.2 cm thick when folded.

For staff who move chairs a lot

The BRISE is particularly interesting due to its weight of only 3.9 kg.

If you also want a tray, the wheels of the PRE FLEX or the PRESTIGE are an alternative.

For environments with very frequent cleaning

High-density polyethylene models like BRISE, DESIGN, and KB950 are particularly interesting when ease of maintenance is crucial.

FAQ: choosing the right professional high chair

Which high chair to choose for a restaurant?

For a classic dining room, a stackable, easy-to-clean chair without a tray is generally the most versatile solution. MENINO, EUROBAMBINO, JURA, BRISE, DESIGN, JUNO, or KB950 meet these criteria to varying degrees.

Which high chair should I choose if I have limited space?

If you store several chairs, opt for a stackable or nestable model. For extremely limited space, the SUPAFLAT PRO is particularly interesting: it is only 4.2 cm thick when folded.

Is there a child chair suitable for high tables?

Yes. The EUROBAMBINO High Version has a seat height of 61 cm, compared to approximately 50 cm for the EUROBAMBINO Standard.

What is the difference between a stackable and a nestable chair?

A stackable chair stacks vertically on top of others. A nestable chair partially slides into the previous one, allowing for a row of several chairs with a reduced footprint.

Should I prefer a chair with or without a tray?

A chair without a tray allows the child to be closer to the family table and reduces bulk. A chair with a tray creates an independent eating space. The choice therefore depends mainly on your establishment's organization.

What material should I choose for a professional high chair?

Wood is appreciated for its warm appearance and its integration into dining rooms. Polyethylene is particularly interesting when ease of cleaning, resistance, and daily handling are priorities.

The right high chair is the one that fits your organization

There is no single "best professional high chair."

A small restaurant might prefer a SUPAFLAT PRO for its storage. A brasserie with many classic tables might prefer an EUROBAMBINO or a JURA. An establishment with high turnover will appreciate the lightness of the BRISE. A space with high tables will benefit from the EUROBAMBINO High Version, while a structure that wants to combine a tray, wheels, and storage can opt for the PRE FLEX.

The goal is therefore to choose the chair that meets both the needs of families and the daily constraints of your teams.

Hesitating between several models?

The KODIF team can advise you based on your establishment type, table height, storage space, number of chairs needed, and frequency of use.
