A Hauck Alpha highchair tray can transform a highchair from a seat at the family table into a dedicated place for eating and playing. However, not every tray fits every model, and some features are less important in everyday use than compatibility, cleaning or attachment.
Before buying, parents of children aged around 6 to 36 months should avoid three common pitfalls in particular:
A dining tray for Hauck Alpha+ should be explicitly intended for your own highchair model. Product details may, for example, list the Hauck Alpha+ or the Arketa highchair as a compatible model. A tray for the Arketa is not automatically suitable for the Alpha+.
With the Hauck Click Tray, the attachment mechanism is also important. The models described are attached to the front safety bar using a click system. Before every use, check that the tray is fully clicked into place. The tray does not replace the safety harness and is not designed for lifting the highchair.
An easy-clean highchair tray with a smooth surface can usually be wiped after meals with a damp cloth and mild cleaning product. Some plastic models also allow the removable section to be cleaned separately.
Wooden trays made from FSC-certified beechwood offer a different material choice. According to the product information, the smooth surface should be cleaned with a damp cloth. Prolonged contact with liquids, harsh cleaning products or abrasive sponges should be avoided where indicated in the care instructions.
A silicone highchair mat can complement the existing Click Tray. The mats in the specified variants are made from 100% food-grade silicone, are LFGB-certified and, according to the product description, dishwasher-safe. Important: these mats are designed for the Alpha Click Tray or Arketa Click Tray and are not compatible with the wooden trays.
A highchair tray should provide enough space for plates, drinking cups and small items. A raised rim can help prevent liquids or toys from rolling straight off the tray. However, it is not a complete spill-proof barrier.
The silicone mats available, for example, measure 42.5 × 28 × 0.5 cm. They can be used on the intended highchair tray or on a dining table. Their flexible material means they can be rolled up and stored compactly. A non-slip table mat can also help keep cups and crockery in place, but it does not replace supervision during meals.
Why this product suits this profile: The Click Tray is designed for the Alpha+ and attaches using a click-in mechanism. Its smooth surface is designed for quick cleaning with a cloth and mild cleaning product.
The product information explicitly names the Alpha+ as a compatible model and states that the contents include the “tray”. This makes it easier to plan for any missing accessories before buying.
GRS-certified recycled material, click attachment, raised rim and a smooth, wipe-clean surface.
Why this product suits this profile: Made from FSC-certified European beechwood, this tray is ideal for households that prefer a wooden surface and freestanding use of the Alpha+.
The product information confirms compatibility with the Alpha+ and gives dimensions of approximately 46 × 38.5 × 3 cm. The tray should be cleaned with a cloth and is not designed for use with the silicone mats.
FSC-certified beechwood, raised rim and a dedicated eating and play area for children aged around 6 to 36 months.
Why this product suits this profile: The mat is a useful addition to the Alpha Click Tray or Arketa Click Tray and can also be used on the dining table during frequent meals.
The product description clearly specifies how it can be used: the mat is not intended for wooden trays. This helps prevent buying an accessory for the wrong surface.
100% food-grade silicone, non-slip surface, dishwasher-safe and temperature-resistant from -20 to 220 °C according to the product information.
Why this product suits this profile: This two-piece system is designed for families who want a removable upper surface and a depth adjustment with three settings.
The product information specifies the age range of 6 to 36 months, the compatible highchair series and the need to check the clips and adjustment mechanism regularly.
Three-stage depth adjustment, removable upper surface, raised rim and wipe-clean plastic surfaces.
We have put together a complete, regularly updated list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the safety regulations applicable in the EU.
The trays and systems mentioned are generally designed for children aged around 6 to 36 months. The instructions for the specific highchair, your child’s ability to sit independently and the manufacturer’s information are the deciding factors. The tray alone does not determine when a child can sit in the highchair.
No. The mats described are designed for the Alpha Click Tray or Arketa Click Tray. According to the product information, they are not recommended for wooden trays. Before buying, check the model name, surface and dimensions.
There is no standard service life that applies in every case. It depends on cleaning, use, storage and the condition of the attachment. Regularly checking the tray for cracks, loose fasteners or sharp areas, and replacing it if damaged, makes it easier to assess whether it remains safe to use.
