Recommend Your Highchair

Jess & Drew

DD is getting a highchair for Christmas (right now she is using the Bumbo). I've been reading reviews on the Graco Contempo and am leaning towards it, but I am not completely sold on it yet. Size isn't an issue, but I do want a removable/washable cover. I really wanted a wooden one, but I've given up on that.

What made you give up on a wooden one?  Are they really pricey?  I got a highchair at my shower and I'm debating whether to open it or not.  I was thinking about getting the kind that attaches to a chair or getting a wooden one.  We have an open concept floor plan and I would have to look at it all day long, so I think I want one that is more my style.

I wanted the wooden one to match my decor also, but I can't find on I like (probably being overly picky). The Eddie Bauer ones are pretty comparably priced with the big plastic ones, but I don't like the wooden chair with the plastic tray. I want a wood chair and wood tray. Graco makes this one that I really like and matches our decor, but they had a recall and aren't sold anymore. I've looked on Craigslist for used wooden ones, but haven't had much luck. If anyone has a recommendation on a wood one, I would definitely appreciate it, but I don't have much hope for the wooden one

I have the Chicco Polly, and it's fine. I honestly would probably get a space saver one that sits on a chair just so I could have one less large item in my house. I did use the Eddie Bauer wooden one with DD1, as that's what my parents have at their house. It was fine too, but quite a bit heavier.

I have the keekaroo wooden high chair.  So far I like it, easy to clean, smaller profile, removable tray.  My son has only been sitting in it for around 2 weeks since I did not get the infant support insert.

Well I have the Eddie Bauer and love it : sorry you don't. We also have a travel one that straps to a chair, both are in use since I have 2u2

Thanks ladies. I'm going to look into the space saver and Chicco ones.

Ditto on the Keekaroo. It has a wood tray with a plastic cover. We really love how well it goes with the rest of our decor. Our kitchen/living room is one big area and this fits in. I read a review on Stokke vs Svan vs Keekaroo, and I was sold on how much easier to clean the Keekaroo is, as well as it's affordability. We opted for the infant insert, but might have been fine without.

We have the Space Saver ones and they are great, I love them.  Super easy to clean and don't take up any more space since I just have them on our existing chairs.

I got the Keekaroo. FWIW diapers.com has a 20% off coupon code for it right now (THANKSBABY) with free 2-day shipping. Worked out well. Thanks ladies!
