Nibble and Rest ANTILOP footrest & cushion (Woodsi Footsi)
A height-adjustable bamboo footrest, with optional cushion and mat, that gives the IKEA ANTILOP foot support.
MamaLoop mums pickWe researched this — not used by usNot sponsored
The IKEA ANTILOP is a great budget chair with one big gap: nowhere for little feet to go. This Australian small business makes a bamboo or maple footrest that sits on the ANTILOP's legs, held in place by thick rubber O-rings, so there are no tools or clamps and you can move it up as your baby grows. The aim is for your baby to sit upright with hips, knees and ankles at roughly right angles and feet flat, the posture feeding specialists describe for steady eating. You can add a wipeable seat cushion, a grippy placemat that covers the tray and leg wraps, singly or as a bundle. Trade-offs: the full bundle costs several times the chair, the O-rings are small parts to keep away from little hands, and the maker warns a footrest can make climbing out easier, so buckle up every time.

Pros

- Cushion, tray placemat and bundles from the same maker
Cons
- The full makeover bundle costs several times the chair itself
- O-rings are small parts to keep away from children
- A footrest can make it easier to push up and climb out, so the belt must be on
Who it suits
- IKEA ANTILOP owners who want proper foot support
- Families who started with a budget chair and want to upgrade it cheaply
Who should look elsewhere

What to look for
- Set the height so feet rest flat with knees bent at about a right angle, and raise it as your baby grows
- Buckle the ANTILOP's belt every time and never leave your baby alone in the chair
- Keep spare O-rings and small parts out of reach
- Add-on footrests aren't covered by a specific Australian standard; check it is firm before each meal
