Bindy, I didn't even use a high chair with DS2. He has a Phil & Ted's me too which is a seat that attaches to the table. He prefers it to a high chair as he is actually sitting up with us. We bought it for DS1 when he refused to sit in a high chair anymore and then when he was taller got him a booster seat and DS2 has the me-too. You can also take it with you when you go somewhere - it attaches to most types of tables.
