High Chairs

Any suggestions on online places to look at/order high chairs. I think I have checked most of the major ones.

I am having such a high chair nightmare Chat Icon

Re: High Chairs

I hear your pain... did you do the endless amazon search yet?

After much thought, these were the criteria we decided were necessary:

no nooks and crannies to trap food

no cloth seats that stain and need repetitive washing (where does Crouton sit when the stupid pad is air drying??!)

No A-shaped legs, since I tend to trip over stuff like that Chat Icon

near flawless reviews from parents whose kids love their highchair!

Since that's a tall order, we selected one chair for the home, and a portable version for travel....

for home

for travel

oh, and it didn't hurt that they both look super cute Chat Icon

We decided to just register for the Fisher Price booster seat. High chairs are too bulky and take up too much space for my liking.

I love the highchair and put it on my Babies R Us wishlist to consider. I'm just wondering about the fact that it says 6 months to 3 years. What would you do prior to 6 mths when (and I'm assuming here) the baby would be too small for the chair.

Re: High Chairs

I think prior to 6 months it doesn't matter much , becuase they're not really chowing down on solids yet... at best they may dabble a tad...
bottles can be given anywhere.....

Re: High Chairs

You usually wouldn't use the high chair till they can sit up, so 6 months sounds about right.

same here, plus our table is at bar height so a regular high chair wouldn't work
