The seated mode is ideal for younger children, taking their first steps and discovering walking and the walk-behind mode is more suited for chidren who feel more comfortable with walking on their own and it helps to strengthen your baby’s leg muscles.

7) Storkcraft 3-in-1 Activity Walker Review
Storkcraft’s 3-in-1 is a great baby walker and activity center with lots to offer. It offers three different modes: baby walker, activity center, jumper with a 360 rotating swivel seat to allow your child to experience and interact with all the toys and features of the activity center.
It comes with a removable toy trade, equipped with an interactive steering wheel, teether and buttons with sounds. Available in 4 different neutral colors and made from high quality and sturdy materials, we think Storkcraft’s baby walker offering is not to be overlooked if you’re looking a a great allrounder baby walker/activity center.
The only thing we didn’t like is that the maximum weight recommendation for the baby walker is only 25 pounds which is less than the average 30 pounds of all the other competitors meaning that you can’t use it as long as some of the other alternatives and your baby will outgrow it faster, so keep that in mind if you’re considering buying it.

8) INFANS Foldable Baby Walker Review
The Infans foldable 2-in-1 baby walker is a great budget friendly option for a convertible baby walker. It comes with all the usual features that you’d expect at this price point: a convertible design (seated or push behind modes), safety bumper, detachable and machine washable seat cover.
What caught out attention is that it also offers 3 different height positions that you can easily adjust and six non-slip stair pads to help prevent your child from falling down the steps. Furthermore there’s a setting to change the firmness of the wheels, thus adjusting the amount of force your child will need to put in to push/move with the baby walker which is great as your baby grows and it becomes easier for them to push the baby walker.

- 360°rotatable front wheel

9) CUTE STONE Sit-to-Stand Learning Walker Review
CUTE STONE’s 2-in-1 learning baby walker is the most budget friendly option of our roundup, with its price usually hovering around $49 – it’s a great option!
The multifunctional baby walker offers 4 different modes: a traditional push-behind baby walker, a sit & play activity center, a proper activity table or a hangable activity board.
The only downside is that it doesn’t offer a seat-in mode but at this price you still get a lot of baby walker for the money.
The handle is height adjustable, effectively enabling the baby walker to grow with you baby. Something very interesting that we noticed is that it comes with a weight box underneath which you can fill with water or sand to gradually increase the weight according to your baby’s strength, we though it was pretty smart, although the wheel speed settings that some of the other competitors had are a better option.
The toys and feaatures include spinning blocks, turning fears, shape shorters and there’s an electronic organ playing music to furhter engage your baby’s senses and creativity.
What we liked
- Playful and colorful design
- Effectively 4 different modes
- Height adjustable handle
- Weight box to increase weight

10) Radio Flyer Deluxe Push & Play Cube Walker Review
The Radio Flyer push baby walker is the most retro looking baby walker of them all. It’s a push-behind baby walker and an activity center, all in one.
Its four wheels are equipped with safety resist clickers to help your child build confidence and balance. The activities and toys include shape blockers, interlocking gears, a bead maze, locking books that your child can open, spinning blockers and a pathfinder maze.
We also loved the design, albeit at a price of around $99 it doesn’t offer any great unique features that you can’t find in one of the competitor options, hense why it’s our last option.
What we liked
- Retro design
- Made from wood
- Safety resist clickers on all wheels
