Kitchen Island Height Highchair (bar stool height)


Materials: Antilop highchair

Description: I have a 2 year old daughter who has developmental delays and cannot yet sit unaided in a bar stool. We wanted to get her a height adjustable highchair and so she can join her twin sister and us for meals at our kitchen island....

Unfortunately nothing on the market fit our needs and wants. We had an Ikea Antilop highchair to use outside in the summer, so I decided to find a way to mount this to a gas lift adjustable stool base. I bought a gas lift stool second hand, took the seat off. then simply drilled holes in the seat of the Antilop highchair in the appropriate places and bolted this into the gas lift stool base. It looks fabulous, is very sturdy and we are very very happy with it
