I'm a FTM but I registered for the Fisher Price Precious Planet of a Whale Tub. I read reviews on Amazon, BRU, and Target and it had good things written about it plus it's really cute! I had a hard time deciding between this one and the Fisher Price Wonders of Aqaurium bath tub because that one has a newborn sling. But after reading a ton of reviews on the aquarium tub, I realized most people weren't able to use it from the beginning which is not what I wanted.

We loved the Whale Tub and are looking forward to using it again.
With DD, we didn't really start solids until she was close to 6 months. By that time she could sit up well and even though we had a "real" highchair, she actually preferred this Fisher Price booster seat. We ended up putting away the highchair after only a few months and have been using this for almost a year. It goes on one of our kitchen or dining room chairs, so it saves space, allows her to eat at the table now that we don't use the tray anymore, and she is the right height at both our regular and pub-height tables. Also, when she was still a little small for restaurant highchairs we would just bring this and attach it to a chair - so easy! I only wish we hadn't wasted $200 on a stand alone highchair!
We just have the Fisher Price Healthy Care Booster (no high chair). You aren't supposed to introduce solids until they can sit up unsupported, so I'm still not sure what the recline feature on a high chair is used for. The booster has a tray, attaches to one of our regular chairs, is height adjustable and only cost $25.
As for bath tub. Not actually sure what we have. Seems like they were all pretty similar? We don't have the whale though.

The Whale of a Tub seems pretty popular. That's what I'm going with too. It's so cute.
For my high chair, I got the Graco Duo-Diner. It's a high chair that converts into a booster seat. I'm a FTM so I really don't have any experience. I liked the way it looked and it seemed to have good reviews.
We have the Chicco Poly highchair and it's great except the tray doesn't fit in our dishwasher (at least it comes off though). I do love the recline and adjustable height features.
This one is very new and has no reviews, but it's made by a good brand, can be folded, and the inner fabric lining can be removed and washed. So no crumbs/gross food gets stuck between crevices.
We had a hand-me-down highchair for DS that we got rid of so I'm looking for a new one But our tub I loved! It's this one. https://www.target.com/p/Fisher-Price-Rainforest-Bath-Center/-/A-10748562 I loved the mesh holder that I could use when he was tiny and it grew with him. Even has these little feet so I could put it over our sink and wash him then let it drain after.
Re: Please reccomend your high chair and tub!

We love our Leachco Bath mat thing:

It's great because you can use it in the kitchen sink or tub. Then you hang it dry in the shower and it's small to store.
Tub:
Fisher Price "Whale of a Tub".
It has only positive reviews online. I went through 70 reviews on Babies R Us (Canada site) and all were perfect star ratings.

High Chair:
Maxi-Cosi "Piazzo High Chair" in Tango Red
This one is very new and has no reviews, but it's made by a good brand, can be folded, and the inner fabric lining can be removed and washed. So no crumbs/gross food gets stuck between crevices.

I really want this one because it's not all brightly colored, etc. That kind of stuff drives me nuts a little bit. It has good reviews!
