Well I asked the same question... few years ago. Everyone raved about the ikea one. And I, in my infinite wisdom thought.. .nah... they're just saying that. It doesn't look THAT good. It's pretty basic. What if he climbs out? Dammit, I need some bells & whistles!

So, I bought a Chicco Polly cos it was lovely & padded (but all plastic, very cleanable right? ), and it reclined (which I wanted for my little bub at the time). And you know what? Once he started solids, I got sooo sick of wiping out the folds & cracks. Sure it's plastic & it wipes off, but it is a total PITA. IMagine you've tipped an entire tub of yoghurt into the guts of the chair, now imagine how long that takes to get in & clean. And when you're doing it 2-3 times a day... you soon hate it. And honestly, DH won't be the one doing it, you will. So once I realised how totally annoying it was, I went and got the ikea one (or Target now have something very similar for basically same price). It's awesome. It is so much easier to clean. 2 seconds, quick wipe, tray can go in the sink (if it's that bad).

So your choice, good luck. I really hope you don't make the same mistake I made!
