Looking for a new high chair. What would you recommend?
The last time I posted on tildes, I got some really helpful suggestions on a mop for my floors. Now I'm looking for a new high chair for my daughter. She's nearly 6 months old, so we're about to start her on solid foods but gave away our older son's high chair a while back when he started sitting in a regular chair (and because it was terrible).
The main requirement is that it's easy to clean, but it also has to support a younger baby sitting in one for the first time. Our last high chair (Graco brand) almost seemed like it was designed to have as many difficult-to-reach crevices as possible where crumbs could get pulverized into.
What do you think?
At six months you can get her into a Tripp Trapp with the baby holster attachment. Then you don't need to buy them another chair. Ever.
They're not cheap but they're totally worth it. My kid would not stay in his high chair (even strapped in, he'd wiggle out and get out to stand on the table if I looked away for even a few seconds - which was terrifying), as soon as we got him a tripp trapp he was completely into it. It's still in use now and he's nearly three. Never had much of a problem keeping it clean, it wipes down easily enough.
Okay I think I've seen this before but didn't know it had a baby holster. Looks like a good option. Isn't it maddening though how baby things often need some kind of attachment that costs extra? Same deal with the Ergo baby's "Infant Insert".
