Hiccapop OmniBoost Travel Booster Seat with Tray for Baby | Folding Portable Booster Seat for Dining Table, Ca Review (2026)

What the OmniBoost is built for

Hiccapop designs the OmniBoost as a portable alternative to a kitchen high chair, meant for dining chairs at home, a relative's house, a restaurant, or outdoor use like camping and the beach. It straps onto a standard chair and includes its own tray, so a baby has a stable eating surface even when the table itself is too high or the wrong shape. The seat folds flat for transport and weighs about 4 pounds, light enough to carry in a diaper bag or car trunk alongside other gear. For a small apartment or a family that eats at friends' or grandparents' homes often, that portability is the main selling point over a bulky standalone high chair.

Fit and age range

Hiccapop markets the OmniBoost for babies from around 6 months up to about age 3, which lines up with a booster style seat rather than a recline-capable infant high chair. A 3 point harness with a one hand latch release secures the child to the seat, and the whole unit then straps to the dining chair itself for stability. Because it depends on a child sitting upright with some trunk control, it is not meant for a young infant who cannot yet sit unassisted. Folded, the seat measures roughly 7 by 7 by 16 inches, small enough to fit in most car trunks or the bottom of a suitcase for travel.

Tray and stability features

The included tray is removable, swivels for easy access, and is dishwasher safe, which matters for a travel product that will see meals in unfamiliar places without much cleanup time. A rear mesh storage pocket adds a spot for wipes, bibs, or spare snacks while traveling. For stability on chairs with slick seats or uneven ground, the OmniBoost includes removable rubber feet, sometimes called duck feet, that Hiccapop says help distribute weight and reduce tipping on soft or uneven surfaces such as sand or grass. A locking mechanism keeps the seat open and stable once it is unfolded and strapped in place.

Cleaning and everyday care

The fabric cover is machine washable on a delicate cycle, and Hiccapop recommends using a laundry bag to protect the buckles and hardware during washing, which is a small extra step compared with a wipe-clean plastic high chair. The tray itself is dishwasher safe, which is the more frequent cleanup task after meals. Because the seat straps directly to a dining chair rather than standing on its own legs, each new chair needs the straps tightened and checked before use, and chair shapes vary enough that fit is not always identical from one dining table to the next.

Who should buy it

The OmniBoost fits a family that regularly eats away from their own kitchen table, whether at relatives' homes, restaurants, or outdoors, and wants one seat that travels well instead of buying a second high chair. It also suits small apartments where a full size high chair would take up floor space that is not available. Parents who mainly need a seat for daily meals in one fixed spot at home may get more consistent comfort from a dedicated high chair with a recline option for younger babies. For sitting babies through toddlers who need an occasional portable seat, this covers that gap well.
