High Chairs

[feeb]

Mods please move if in wrong spot.

We went looking at high chairs today and omg there is such a wide variety available from $100 to $600!!!

So what I am after is what you have and why you got it and pros and cons for it.

So far I like the steelcraft Messina and steelcraft matilda.

All opinions good and bad welcomed

Thanks

head straight to ikea and get their white plastic one for around $50! best money you;ll spend

Go to IKEA!!!!! Get the Anitlop High Chair. Ours cost $39!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had the Steelcraft Messina before that, bought it for $200 and sold it within a month on ebay. Although it has plenty of padding and looks mighty comfy, is adjustable etc, it was a bugger to clean.

The IKEA ANTILOP is brilliant, wipes clean so easily and our DD loves it. Tray comes off if you want and legs come off (we have taken ours travelling before).

You won't be disappointed.

Im not sure on brands or anything but one thing i think is definately a MUST is to get one that can recline a little. We were given ours for DS originally and it doesnt recline. I started feeding him at 5 months and he didnt sit unaided until 5 1/2.. so was feeding him in his bouncer as sitting in the high chair he would wobble and fall sideways. So yeh do try and get one you can recline just that little bit so it makes it easier when you are feeding them at the beginning. Also one that goes up and down too is also good.

Best of luck.

we have the prima pappa blah blah(sorry)
and i cant wait to get rid of it!!! it is soo hard to keep clean food goes in the creves's(sp?) it has fabric trim which after so much washis and wiping has gone a funny colour.
i would definatly say to get one of the ikea ones...
you dont need one with a tray if you can put it up to the table
