I have had this chair for several months now. I am happy with it. The assembly wasn’t too difficult for my handy hubby. Although, as he puts together all of the toys for our children he constantly complains on the quality of todays toys. They just don’t make them too sturdy anymore. We are parents of baby #6, the first 5 being all boys. So we really look for quality items that will last. I thought the fabric was super easy to clean with just a washcloth. Spaghetti sauce and other sauces come off just with a wipe of the cloth. I throw it in the washing machine once a week and vacuum out the nooks in the chair. It still looks great.

The major con I have are the wheels. They are constantly in the lock mode, even when I just had it in the unlock position. It’s a pain, but wouldn’t make not want to purchase another one. Also another con is that there is no snack tray. Meaning a smaller tray to use under the larger tray. I had that on my other highchair and it was wonderful. The green tray that comes with it is pretty much useless for any baby that realizes it comes off, because they can throw it right off. The toy does’t stick either, but that pretty much goes for any suction toy anyway.

The $100+ price tag is not worth it too me. I bought it on sale and discounted again. The highchairs that are on the market are all pretty much the same. I found this one too fit us so far. My 20 month old climbs in and out of it and it hasn’t flippped over yet!

We’ve been using this chair for about 5 months. I love the bright colors and think it’s super cute. The pad wipes up really easily with a damp cloth. I just machine-washed it for the first time and it came out looking brand new (I washed it on cold and dried it on a drying rack). LOVE the ability to take off the top tray. We use the tray as DD’s plate all the time lately and I just give it a quick hand-wash. It does also fit in our dishwasher. The chair is comfortable for DD, attractive, and easy to keep clean. The only thing I don’t like is that the wheel locks engage accidentally all the time, making it hard to pull the chair around. Not a big deal. Overall, very pleased with this purchase.

Good high Chair. Stable with adjustable height positions. The only problem with this high chair is that shoulder straps keep getting loose when my son wiggles. So when he was 6 months old and still not able to sit completely straight by himself I had to use the food tray so that he doesn’t fall to the front. Now that he can sit straight by himself, I don’t worry too much, but I would have liked it if the straps remained tight once I pull them (like a car seet shoulder strap).

I’m surprised so many people gave this five or four stars. Here’s the deal: It is true that the removable tray is a bonus (though in general the bottom tray gets dirty anyway) and that the recline is good. The pad wipes well too. However, putting on and removing the main tray is quite unweildy. It is almost impossible to get the baby in or out with the tray on because it does not move out far enough. If you don’t want to always strap the baby in, you have to have the tray right near you to put on as soon as you’ve put the baby down. In addition, the locks on the wheels don’t really work well. They fail to really keep the highchair in place, but I find they are constantly engaging unintentionally making moving the highchair difficult. The toy is actually a danger because the suction cup is not strong enough to really hold. My baby once pulled it and hit herself in the face! A nasty bruise resulted. Fisher price should also have provided a place to keep the toy during feeding. Lastly, there are two holes on the sides of the tray near the baby whose purpose ramains a mystery. But they sure do collect gunk!! All in all, I’m not especially thrilled with this product.
