Overview
This HTS category, 9401.71.00.01, specifically encompasses highchairs and booster seats. These are items designed to elevate infants and young children to table height for feeding or participation at a dining table. The classification is determined by their primary function of seating a child at an elevated position, typically with features such as restraints, trays, and adjustable heights.
It is important to distinguish these items from other seats intended for children. For instance, while sibling categories include infant walkers (9401.71.00.05), bouncers with seats (9401.71.00.06), and swings for children (9401.71.00.07), these products serve different primary purposes. Walkers are for aiding a child's mobility, bouncers provide a rocking or suspended motion, and swings are designed for recreational swinging. Highchairs and booster seats, conversely, are specifically designed for seated feeding and table interaction at an elevated height.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this code relies on confirming the item's design and intended use as a highchair or booster seat. The defining characteristics will include its structural ability to safely elevate a child to table height, the presence of safety restraints, and features facilitating feeding or seating at a table.
