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 Stokke
- The Tripp Trapp, which adjusts as the child grows, is repairable and has one of the steadiest second-hand markets of any nursery item
- The Xplory chassis, whose raised seat position is the feature buyers specifically look for and which no other pushchair copies closely
- The Sleepi cot, which converts into a toddler bed and later a seat, giving it a second and third life
- Original Stokke accessories — the baby set, harness and cushions — which are needed for younger children and are expensive separately
What pulls Stokke resale value down
- Missing baby sets and harnesses on the Tripp Trapp, which are required for the youngest users and are a significant part of what buyers need
- Splits and cracks in the beech side panels, which carry the load and cannot be repaired safely
- Sun-bleached or heavily marked wood, which shows on the pale finishes and cannot be sanded out without going through the lacquer
- Worn or seized wheels on the Xplory, which are a specialist part rather than a generic castor
Identifying and dating yours
- The Tripp Trapp is stamped underneath with the maker’s name and, on later chairs, a production date — photograph the underside of the seat
- Check which generation you have, since the harness and baby-set fittings changed and buyers need to know what will attach
- Photograph the slots in the side panels: worn or elongated slots show how much adjusting the chair has done and are what a careful buyer checks
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
Why does the Tripp Trapp hold its value so well?
Because it is not outgrown. It adjusts from high chair to adult seat, parts are still available for old chairs, and that keeps demand steady across generations.
Is a Tripp Trapp worth selling without the baby set?
Yes, but say so clearly. The chair alone suits older children and adults; buyers with a baby need the extra parts and will price accordingly.
How much is a Stokke high chair worth?
Roughly £28 to £126 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.
