Love this highchair, especially as it is height adjustable

There is a 5 point harness and double tray are great features and i have thrown the padded seat cover and all straps straight int he wash without an issue if they get food stains on them.  The rest of it cleans easily of crumbs with a quick run of the dustbuster!

My underneath storage basket is kept full of cloths, bibs and wipes all ready to go for cleaning up after a meal.

We have been using this highchair for 2 years now and it's be fantastic!

It is height adjustable and tilts back also (great for if bubs falls asleep sitting in it!). There is a 5 point harness for safety, and brakes on the wheels.

The double tray is handy for if bubs makes a big mess, simply un-clip and remove and you are left with a new tray. Both trays have a spot for a sippy cup which is also handy. The large basket underneath is great for storing bibs.

The only negative is the lighter colour (light beige) does stain a little with food like spaghetti sauce etc, but the entire cover can be removed and is machine washable. The colour is good for blending into you house though without ebeing too bright and obvious.

I love this highchair. It is easy to keep clean with a very durable and sturdy design. It has a 5 point harness and two removable trays for easy cleaning.  It has a basket underneath for storage which is a great place to keep wipes and bibs. It has adjustable heights (up and down) and adjustable back rest (forward and back), and can fold away for easy storage.

Over all I think it is a great High chair!

I love this highchair, very sturdy design and easy to pull around.

It is a pain to clean sometimes but i guess if you want a  nice  comfortable seat you have the crumbs getting caught in the crevices.

The price was'nt what i call cheap but it is a well made highchair.

I have to agree with an earlier review of this product.

  • Cleaning - Early on it's fine, but when the little one get's older and you need to remove the seat insert and baby is learning to feed themself, there are so many cracks and crevices to clean it get's very annoying. Even the removable tray insert is a pain, because it just makes another crach for food to fall into.
  • Flexibility - This part is very good. Very adjustable and easy to use. A little bulk but not to bad
  • Happy - Overall, yes. As long as you don't mind the extra cleaning the this is a good buy.
  • Value for $$ -  Sort of middle to top end (when we were buying) so maybe a bit pricey for the cleaning aspect, but I don't feel as though it was wasted money.

I'm really pleased with this high chair. My son is happy sitting in it,the heights adjust easily, it's as easy to clean as any other high chair and it's not expensive.



My one gripe in it is the cushion is made of a fabric which pulls easily when the velcro from his bibs gets stuck on it, but all in all, I would recommend this high chair.

I have found this high chair too big and way too hard to clean. You can remove the cover to wash, but with a messy toddler, the more you wash it the more the foam gets tangled.

I love this highchair. It's easy to clean and the cover is fully removeable for machine washing (I have done this twice). It's easy to wheel around and has lots of height options.

It was great at the start before our baby started eating finger food! It was easy to wheel around the kitchen and I could adjust it to sit quite high so she could watch me cook and do dishes, etc. Once we got onto messier food it was horrible to clean with too many crevices that food could get into. We ended up buying the Ikea basic highchair which we now use for "messy" eating.

I am in the fairly early stages of using the chair, but it is going great so far. The recline feature has been great for us as bub had to be an 'early eater' so wasn't able to sit up yet. I think some of the creases may get a little tricky to clean at times, but so far, so good.
