Ikea high chair

[Tobily]

My thoughts? I wish I bought one

My DS's family daycare mum has 3 of them and I've also used them in restaurants and I think they're brilliant.

We have an expensive highchair that has a removable tray, lay back seat, 5pt harness etc - and after every meal DS "eats" in it ( or should I say bathes himself in ) it takes forever to clean it. And it STILL has food stuck in the straps and all the crevices. I hate the damn thing.
The Ikea one is sooo much better IMO.

Is there a gap between the baby and the tray? My current high chair has a huge gap and all the food drops down and collects in a messy goo between his legs. I am looking for something where the tray sits a lot closer to his body (and I am also sick of trying to keep this one clean!)

yes and no artechim, you can buy a blow up insert which we used to blow up the and fold up to make it fatter and place behind DD back only to push her forward, hope that makes sense

Thanks AJP, that makes sense but unfortunately the place that sells them in NZ doesn't sell the insert thing

how about a normal cushion then? one that the cover can be removed and washed if necessary, we did that too for a while!!

Might do that, thanks
