Looking for a Good Highchair
Hey mamas. I'm looking for a new high chair for my 6 month old son and just can't seem to find the right thing. The one I had for my daughter was bulky and a pain to clean so we're looking for something different. We were looking at the Peg Perego Prima Pappa but I read a lot of reviews saying that children couldn't even reach the tray table no matter how it was adjusted and that it was terrible to clean. We were also looking at the leap frog one but didn't think it looked as comfortable. I know my daughter took naps in her highchair a lot so I want to be sure it's comfortable enough for naps. Just wondering what others of you use and like or don't like!

Prima Pappa is terrible to clean - major ordeal. It is comfy, but the cleaning is not fun. We used the fisher price one that attaches to a chair after he was about 1, and we loved it!

We have a Chicco and are happy with it. Folds up nice for storage and transport. My DD is now almost 3 and we use it instead of a booster at the diningroom table. She has often napped in her highchair and we just lean it back when she does. When she was smaller I'd keep her in it in the kitchen while I cooked. Locking wheels, two trays (plus the actual tray) and I found it pretty easy to clean. Still looks good 3 years later. Chicco in general has great customer service. We have their travel system, too, and it's in such good shape we're passing it to my sister.

I have an Eddie Bauer wooden high chair. I LOVE it and it's super easy to clean. It did come with a cover/cushion and my kids have all fell asleep in it before. The thing I like the most about it is that it will last for years and years to come.

I use the Fisher Price Space Saver for my twins. They strap to a chair, which I liked because I didn't have to take it out multiple times a day, and I didn't need to store it anywhere since it stays on the chairs. It does tilt back, so if your son ever fell asleep he would be fine.

I don't remember the brands anymore, but we LOVED the highchairs that attach to a kitchen chair. It saves space, was easy to bring along when we went out to eat or visited relatives, and both children used them as boosters until they were big enough to reach the table.

I also have a Chicco high chair and I love it too! I've used it with 2 kids so far and will be using it when my baby gets old enough to eat from it. It still looks great and cleans easy.

I agree with Melissa G. The Fisher Price Space Saver is the absolute perfect "high" chair. It straps to your regular chair so it does not take up additionaly floor space. The tray is easy to attatch and remove. Cleaning is a breeze. And my boy could have napped in his, if the occasion had come up.
