    Yael, we don't have wooden (I am totally in love with the Ikea Antilop.......)

    BUT, in all of the restaurants I worked in before I moved to Aust........they were all wooden, and saw some major heavy duty and were brilliant.....there is one fantastic style that you can get that is really similar to the Ikea one...and cleans up SO easily and quickly....

    From memory the brand name is Lipper.

    It only has a groin/waist strap, but that was no problem, (Same as the antilop.....none of my 3 have ever managed an escape.)

    It doesn't come with a tray, but rather you push it up to the table. Which can be a bit messy, but the huge advantage is that you can keep them in the chair for a lot longer as they feel like they are really part of the action by being at the table! (Lexie is still in her high chair no problem........)

    I will pm you a link to a photo of it.......

    Yael, we had (well actually have but don't use anymore) a wooden one - it's a Boori brand, same as the cots you can buy. It has a 5 point harness although in the early days we used it with a cushion which meant we had to use the harness as a three point. It was really good, easy to clean and didn't wear except for the harness which did get broken at some stage after an awful lot of use and being used as a climbing rope by two strong boys
