High Chairs!

Can everyone tell me what kind of high chair they use??? Someone gave me two Gracos which, first of all...don't match which drives me NUTS with the twins...and also has cloth seats which I have two thumb suckers that suck in between bites and get food all over the seats. I need vinyl seats and a good chairs.

Thanks!

 

We actually have the Fisher Price Healthy Care Booster seats that strap on to your regular chairs. They are all plastic and very easy to clean. I love them because I can bring them anywhere. High chairs would also take up way to much space in our tiny home.

 

I have this one and LOVE LOVE LOVE this high chair. Its easy to clean, move, and use. I don't have a single compaint. There was a recall out on this, and Graco sent the part VERY QUICKLY. It wasn't even a needed part. The recall was really to just remind people to make sure it "snaps" into place after being folded up for storage. I guess some parent didn't and their kid got hurt because it folded up while the kid was in there. Common sense isn't available for some, I guess.

 

I use the fisher price space savers (which also strap on the chair) and LOVE THEM! I especially like how they tile back while they are younger.

 

We have the $88 babytrend. I love them! They are made of metal - not that cheap plastic. The seat is this cute, washable nylon. They recline. The trays come off and have a storage spot on the back. I really love them. They have all the features of peg peregos and combi's for half the price!

I have this one Healthy Chair High Chair and love it! The two I have even came with a seperate toy that apparently no longer comes with them. They are pricey so you should check your local craigslist...I found one of mine for $25 in great condition

 

I have the Chicco Polly high chair in the Woodstock pattern and I love it. Their patterns are not "cartoonish" and they have every feature you could want! I paid $95 each with free shipping on this site: http://www.specialtybaby.com/chpohiinwo.html

Features:
• Dishwasher-safe, second tray lifts off for easy cleaning
• 7-Position seat height and 3-position seat recline
• One-hand seat adjustment
• Height adjustable with movable arms and removable tray to fit to close to a table
• Adjustable footrest
• Easy tray removal and storage
• 5-Point safety harness
• Folds compactly and stands upright for storage
• Lockable wheels

 

I also have the Chicco Polly and love it for all the reasons listed below. THeir customer service is awesome. When I took mine out of the box and went to put it together, I noticed the tray did not allign with the chair so it was not smooth getting the tray on. I called to see if I can return it and they said they would just send me a new one. I thought that was so nice so now I gave the other one to my mom.

 

We also have the Fisher Price Healthy Care Booster. They have worked great from the beginning. When I first started feeding them at 6 months I used the bouncy seats and they made a mess! I then put them in the booster seats and rolled up receiving blankets on both sides to help them sit easier. This worked until the grew into the chairs a little better. I like these because they are easy to clean, don't take up extra room, are inexpensive, and can be used for many years. Good luck making your decision!

 

We have this Safety first one. It is nice and portable. We take it whenever we go to someone's house for dinner. We never even got regular high chairs with the twins because we don't have room for 2 high chairs and these work just as well. This way too they sit at the table with us for meals.

 

I also bought 2 FP Healthy Care Booster Seats on Amazon for $22 each. For travelling, around the house, etc. Besides that we have a Stokke for my oldest, and we're going to buy another one for the twins, so that my oldest can move up to a regular seat (with cushie) and the twins will use the Stokke chairs. Absolutely love them! So worth the money. They look good, wood, nice size, good for many many years, easy to clean, no tray but eating at the table which we prefer ...

 

The girls have the pink Prima Pappa Diners by Peg Perego we love em and they have wheels so i can push them back and forth from the dining room to the kitchen. They are also easy to keep clean. They definitely were not cheap but I'm keeping them in good condition so we can sell them when we are done with them...

 

We have the Fisher Price Space Savers. I really love them. The seats are cooshie, but plastic so very easy to wipe down. They have all the same features as a full size highchair, but take up much less room. I have been real happy with them.

 

DS uses the Chico Polly highchair in the Woodstock pattern and DD uses the pink Prima Papa diner by Peg Perego. Absolutely love them both. Very easy to keep clean and are very durable!

 

We went with a solution that is reasonable if you have money to shell out now, knowing you will get it back later. We got two Svan chairs. They are wood and shift to a toddler seat -- they are like the Stokke chairs except they have a tray that you remove once they get older and are at the table (at the table just didn't seem reasonable to start).

They are very expensive, BUT they are selling used on ebay and Craigslist for almost retail price, so we figure we will just sell them when we are done and end up paying no more than we would have for a plastic chair.

They are easy to clean and very compact (which is great with two) and the kids sit up straight in them (which I love, I hated how every plastic chair we looked at had them sitting reclined backwards slightly). Our girls love being in their chairs. If they are fussy, I pull them into the living room and they sit in them to play.

 

Fischer Price Booste High Chair seats...we love them.

 

We have these... My brother and his wife got them on clearance for us @ Wal-Mart last year (the store was closing because they were opening a bigger one).. We love them!! They're the vinyl, so they're really easy to clean...

 

We have the Fisher Price Healthy Booster Seats too. Got them as a shower gift and I LOVE them. They're so easy to keep clean and they don't take up alot of space. Easy to travel with and that was a plus, cause we do alot of it. The trays even come off to go into the dishwasher. I have a regular Graco high chair too that was given to us and I've never used it. Takes up way too much space I think. It's enough that you're trippin over babies and toys, who wants to trip over highchairs too, that's my opinion anyway.
Good luck in your search. Hope you find something that suits you and yours.

 

I have Evenflo expressions and I don't like them. They are cute but the seats are hard to clean and they take up tons of room in the kitchen. I wished I would have went with the Fisher price that stays on the chairs.

Ditto!! They have all the bells and whistles of a full size chair but don't take up anywhere near the same amount of space. I love them!!!

 

we just have plain plastic ones, easy to clean but not very fashionable.

 

We have Evenflo chairs from Babies R Us. They were $49 each but had a lot of nice features such as 7 height adjustments, 3 levels of recline, dishwasher safe removable trays, vinyl seats for easy clean-up, and an add a toy option that hooks to the tray so they can't pick it up and throw it. They also fold for storage & have lockable caster wheels. We haven't actually used them for food yet (our girls are just under 12 weeks old) but I can put them in there with the furthest level of recline (so it's basically like they're in their bouncey seats) and wheel them around to watch me while I wash dishes, make supper, fold laundry, etc. I LOVE this...I get to interact with them...."see Daddy has TWO socks" but get stuff done at the same time. It gives me another option of something to entertain them.

 

We have the Fisher Price Healthy Care Booster seats for when we travel or when we go out to restaurants.....for at home we have the Chico Polly Highchairs and they are absolutely wonderful.....I would highly recommend them!!!
