Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.
What holds its value across Chicco
- Travel systems and pushchairs, which sell straightforwardly and carry no special restrictions
- Highchairs that fold and adjust, which are the models with the widest demand
- Car seats within date with a clean, known history
- Sterilisers in working order with all their baskets and lids
What pulls Chicco resale value down
- Any car seat that has been in a collision or is past its moulded expiry date
- Open-system breast pumps, which cannot be hygienically shared and should not be resold — only closed-system pumps with a new set of parts
- Missing baskets, lids and small parts from sterilisers and feeding equipment, which are model-specific
- Stained fabrics on highchairs and seats, which buyers inspect closely because a child eats and sits in them
Identifying and dating yours
- Photograph the moulded dates on any car seat and the model label on everything else
- Say clearly whether a breast pump is open or closed system, since it determines whether it can be sold at all
- Lay out every part of a steriliser or feeding set and photograph them together
What lifts any high chair, whatever the label
High chairs are cheap new at the budget end, so second-hand value concentrates in the designs that grow with the child.
- Convertible designs that adjust as the child grows
- Removable, dishwasher-safe trays and washable covers
- Recognised brands with replacement parts available
- Complete with harness, tray and footrest
And what pulls one down
- Missing harnesses, which are a safety requirement
- Stained or cracked trays
- Wobbling frames and worn adjustment mechanisms
- Basic plastic chairs, which sell for very little
Working out what yours is worth
- Test every adjustment and the folding mechanism
- Confirm the harness is complete and fastens properly
- Deep clean the tray and seat before photographing
What to state in the listing
- Brand, model and the age range it is designed for
- Whether the harness is five-point and complete
- Whether it folds, and the folded and assembled footprint
- What is included — tray, insert, cushion, spare covers — and any missing part
Brand, model and type: “Stokke Tripp Trapp High Chair with Baby Set” or “Folding High Chair, Wipe Clean, 6m+”. Named brands carry real value here and their accessories are searched separately. Say whether it folds and whether the newborn insert or harness is included.
Preparing and photographing it
- Strip it completely and wash the tray, seat pad and every crevice. Dried food in the seams is what makes buyers walk away.
- Check the harness. A five-point harness with all straps and a working buckle is essential, and a missing crotch strap makes the chair unsafe rather than merely incomplete.
- Test the folding mechanism and every height and recline adjustment, and check the locking catches engage firmly.
- The chair set up, whole, from a three-quarter angle
- The harness laid out, showing all straps and the buckle
- The tray removed and the seat, clean, from above
- The folding catches and footprint folded, plus any crack, stain or missing part
When it sells best, and handing it over
Steady all year, with a small lift in the new year. Well-known brands in clean condition sell within days because the alternative is spending several times as much new.
Folding models fit in a car easily; solid wooden chairs need a boot. Give the folded dimensions, and hand over any instruction manual, which parents genuinely use for reassembly.
What buyers ask
Can breast pumps be sold second hand?
Only closed-system pumps, and the buyer needs a new set of tubing and parts. Open-system pumps cannot be hygienically shared and should not be resold.
What should I check on a used highchair?
The harness, the locking mechanism and the fabric. Fold and unfold it, and photograph the catch working — that is what a buyer wants to see.
How much is a Chicco high chair worth?
Roughly £22 to £99 depending on condition, against £20 to £90 for high chairs generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
