High chairs - pls help
Hi, I am about to start weaning my lo and want to get a high chair soon. What high chairs have you all found are lovely to use - or awful???!! Please tell me about ones to avoid! I think I want one which goes up to our ding room table so our lo can use to eating with us but I am not sure. Any advice would be gratefully recieved!!!!

Got a new one for my dd - by CAM - think a company connected to silver cross. It has all of the above plus a thing on the seat which will stop her sliding forward. And it folds up into a smaller size. Was ??100 but got in sale for ??65! Pricey but so useful.
Happy shopping!

My sister and sister-in-law are all mad about the Tripp Trapp highchair. I do like the idea of them but they are so expensive!
I'm sure my husband would flip his lid if I bought something like that. I've only just got him over the shock of yet another pushchair
I do have a wooden one that I had for my 2nd daughter but I found this very hard to clean up and she has battered the food tray, so is this not unhygenic with all the dents etc!
Does this adjust for the height as well?
The actual chair doesn't adjust in height, though. I sit on the sofa and feed Maddy whilst she is in this highchair so, that should give you an idea of the height.
It has a five point harness (Which strips off with the cover, so easy to keep clean) and an extra strap between Lo's legs so, ultra safe. They do it in blue too, for all those Mummy's with little boys!!

I THINK I'M PRETTY MUCH SETTLED ON THE FISHER PRICE HEALTHY CARE. ALTHOUGH A LITTLE BULKY TO STORE AWAY I HAVE READ SOME VERY GOOD REPORTS ON THIS AND IT ALSO SCORES IN THE TOP 5 RECOMMENDED BY 'WHICH'
I LOVE THE FACT THAT BITS REMOVE EASILY TO CLEAN AND THE DIFFERENT HEIGHTS. I WOULD LOVE RONNIE TO SIT AT THE TABLE WITH US OR I CAN LOWER I AND FEED HIM FROM THE SOFA.

I have just bought a bargain spare one, which is fantastic now that Harry is v.v. stable sitting up for a long time ... and for a tenner!
Ikea basic highchair! Its plastic with metal legs, which don't change height but its THE perfect height for the table so he can sit up at it with us and eat from the table rather than away from it. you can also get a blow up cushion that can go behind them for littler sized babies.
And being plastic, is totally wipe clean! Woo!
Absolutely perfect for small house, the in laws, as a spare for other kids coming over, etcetcetc. Had to brag about my bargain! Xxx
