Fisher-Price Healthy Care Deluxe Booster Seat, Pink

We have a Peg Perego high chair that worked well for the first month or two of feedings at the table because it reclined which was helpful at the start of feedings, but we have found that this, affordable, light weight, portable chair is the best all around. In fact, we like it so much, that we have one at each grandparent's house and keep one in the car for use when dinning out in addition to the one we use daily at home. It is easy to tote around though, so one will suffice, but for convenience sake, we found having a few a real convenience. We can also use the extras when other kids visit.The seat secures easily with two adjustable nylon straps and clips--one below a chair's bottom and the other around the back of your chair. We've used it on a variety of chair styles and it has always worked. The seat is simple and contoured for baby's bottom and legs and the entire seat has 3 easily adjustable height setting so that baby can truly pull right up to the table with the rest of the family (note, the seat must be removed from the chair it's on to make this adjustment, but it's rare that you have to change it, as the size of the child determines the best height, not so much the table or chair height.) The baby is secured in the seat by a 3-point harness made of the same adjustable nylon and clips.The tray is simple to put on and remove. It simply clicks onto 1 of 3 nubs along the side of the arm rests. The tray has 3 parts--a base, insert, and cover. The base attaches to the chair and we use it for every meal. The removable divided insert is ideal for messy meals as you can remove it, clean it off, and even throw it in the dishwasher. Lastly, it has a cover that snaps into place on top. We don't use this at home, but it's handy when eating out to contain any mess left of the tray (or insert) until you can get home to clean it. The seat's lap straps can be poked back through the seat and taken out to be washed--a big plus, straps are so hard to clean are are always getting dirty.

When you've had a kid already and you're moving on to your 2nd etc. you find out that you got suckered into buying a lot of crap you didn't need. A high chair is one of those things you don't need. They're bulky and hard to clean and expensive and totally unnecessary. This feeding chair fits at the table so nicely -- even with our wide dinning room chairs and our wide patio swivel chairs. It's easy to clean, easy to attach, easy to snap on and off the tray and can be used from 4 months and up. Our child feels a part of the family sitting in her chair at the table -- not "near" or "next to" the table. She doesn't feel separated at all and I think that's a big deal. She's closer to our plates and can see what we're eating easier than in a high chair. I am short and can feed her easier in this chair because I can pull it up closer and get closer to my child with this seat. We easily move it from inside to our screened-in porch table in the summer months. We bring it to restaurants as well. Plus -- you CANNOT beat the price compared to even the worst rated high chairs. With our first child we bought the most expensive high chair with all the bells and whistles and we were lured by the promise of it converting to a toddler chair. The thing broke down, clogged our large kitchen, got in the way, looked like a beast and when my kid was old enough to sit in a chair she wanted to sit in a CHAIR like mommy and daddy-- not her "baby" high chair. That chair was so beat up and the tray wouldn't attach anymore that even if we wanted to use it again, we could not. This feeding booster chair has been a dream and I cannot imagine why anybody would buy a high chair over one of these. Save your money -- Lord knows there's tons of other baby gear you can spend it on.

We have a small kitchen, so a booster seat was a better option for us than a stand-alone highchair. We had a fabric one before that clipped to the table, but it didn't work on all tables and the soft fabric seat was a nightmare to clean. The molded plastic seat on this has no crevices, so there's no worrying about food getting stuck down in it. I just wipe it clean with a wet cloth after mealtime. We use it both with the tray and just up next to the table and it works well both ways. It's easy to strap to any standard chair and comes off really fast if we need the chair.The two cons: My baby very quickly figured out that he could pry the white liner away from the tray and drop it on the floor, food and all, so we just stopped using it. We put the food directly on the beige part of the tray and just wash it by hand (though I would think it could also go in the dishwasher if you wanted). Also, when we use it without the tray and have him at the table, he can reach the safety straps and has gotten food all over them. Unlike the seat, the straps are not easy to clean! A wet cloth has not done the trick and they are stained and kind of gross. With the tray snapped on he can't reach the straps, so it's only because we used it without that this happened. I still love the seat and would recommend it to anyone. Wonderful product for the price-- don't waste your money on a stand-alone high chair!

We started solids with my 5 month old in this seat and it's been so great for restaurants, friend's places and snack time at home. We bought a second one to keep at the grandparents' place.Edited to add: Our baby is now nearly 3.5 and this is the only baby gear we still use! We have the seat raised so that she can eat with us at the table. On a sturdy chair, she can climb up and buckle herself in, but can’t get out on her own, so she’s in the habit of sitting through whole meals with us at home and out in public.Pros:1. Safe. Tray and buckles keep baby snug and in the seat, two-way buckles attach the seat securely to the chair2. Convenient. Double tray makes it easy to quickly clear leftovers away to wipe messy hands or start with a clear tray for fruit after the meal. Seat is easy to wipe down.3. Clean. Tray cover keeps the trays clean when you're out and can also hold a dirty bib or cloth when you're on your way home. Seat folds in, so anything baby sits on is kept clean while the seat is closed up.4. Good design! Folds compactly, height adjusts, tray setting adjusts, can be used without tray for older toddler or preschooler eating at the table, buckles for the chair double as a shoulder strap and a closure to secure the tray to the seat while you're out.Cons (minor inconveniences):1. Food gets into the straps, which are a bit inconvenient to wipe down.2. This can be used in place of a highchair for spoonfed babies, but the tray is a bit too small for regular use with my enthusiastic self-feeder. If the tray could somehow be bigger (or if a bigger one were available for purchase), this seat could be even better.

Before baby, we ate out a lot. When the baby was tiny, we'd still go out, just take the sleeping child along in the car seat. But then, once our boy was bigger and mobile and eating solid foods himself, eating out became less fun. When I noticed that I was tempted to remove stars from my Yelp reviews of restaurants simply because a restaurant did not have a high chair, or worse, when I found myself avoiding places we loved for the same reason, I knew it was time to figure out a way to take a high chair with us. Our son's day care uses these chairs, so I knew he was open to eating while sitting in the chair. So we made the purchase. We love it. Our son loves sitting in the "big boy chair". We feel comfortable with him fastened in securely. The chair is light weight and easy to carry. We live in a city and don't drive often, but we don't mind carrying it a few blocks to take it to a restaurant. The chair and tray clean up very easily. And it stores nicely in our front hall closet.And we found another use for the booster - when we have friends with a little one over for dinner, we had a place for her to sit.This chair is a worthy investment.

* UPDATE * Still have this seat and its STILL going strong! Used for my first child 9 years ago, used for my second child 7 years ago, used for a couple little ones i babysat for the past few years and now I am using it again with my last baby who is 1. This thing is awesome, seriously.Love it! Works amazing for patio use, going to restaurants etc. We travel with it and love it. I wouldn't bring it with if we were out walking etc most of the day because its kind of bulky. However its perfect for keeping in the car, or putting in the bottom of the stroller for a quick walk/dinner out. Also perfect as a second seat for guests babies, and to take along to other peoples homes. Works on basically any chair!! We've even used it on a swivel office chair. Tray tilts a bit which is a little annoying as food rolls right to babes stomach. Not a deal breaker though. Also my son figured out how to takes off the extra tray within a couple days of using it...so we can't give him that one anymore.

Love, love, love this booster. This is the second one of these that we have purchased. The first one still looks and functions like new and we have been using it for 3 years. My now 4 year old is still comfortable in it and it is the perfect booster. We just purchased this one for my 18 month old and it is perfect for him too, as it adjusts up and down 3 levels. It also has a large tray that holds a larger plate, etc., which many other brands do not have. It is easy to take with you when you go places, and the back easily folds for storage. It is hard to find the tan colour anymore, so we were happy to find it on Amazon.ca, as colours are neutral, go well with any decor, and blend with the chairs. I would recommend this booster to anyone!

This was for use by my grandson (now 5 months old) who spends a good deal of time at my home. I didn't want to have to deal with a highchair and resulting storage. I have a smaller home and I chose this product because it was supposed to be compact and easy to use. I am so impressed. It is a breeze to not only use but transport. It works in my home by attaching to a dining chair and is great outside for summer parties. It is also very light and portable so we can bring it with us to restaurants for family gatherings and it works on any chair. Since my grandson is just learning to sit up, we feel very safe using this product and he absolutely loves it for play and feeding. Highly recommend.
