Needed instructions on assembly to help grandparents
from North London on 7/23/2008
We only had this highchair a day and my 6 month old was sick everywhere but it was so easy to clean and wipe down. It was also easy to unfold and set up and mostly assembled already, just had to sort out the harness and the 2 extra bars that fix to the legs which are wrapped in box, nearly didn't see them! Tray can be moved to the back and as we live in a flat we can fold away when not using. Perfect for my little one who loves sitting in it and rocking backwards and forward so very sturdy/robust unlike other more wobbly highchairs. Shame it didn't come with cushion but you get what you pay for and we are so pleased with it. We have had 2 compliments since it arrived. Looks stunning can't wait to take away with us, just hope my little one doesn't get too big for it. Highly recommended
from East Sussex on 7/22/2008
Great highchair. Looks lovely, easy to clean and you only have to assemble two bars on the bottom. I think a bar between the legs would have been great so that when your child is a little older you might not have had to strap them in every time, but then if they did that I can't see how they would have been able to provide the flip over tray which is extremely handy when pushing it up to the table. I love it and have had a few alternatives with child number one and this is the best by far.
from York on 7/15/2008
Very good quality, fits in with the dining room furniture. Tray folds back so that the high chair can be pushed up to the table. I suppose the only downside is that the tray does not come off (unless you dismantle), and the lip is very shallow, so I can forsee lots of bending down and retriving stuff. But overall am very happy with it.
from brighton, west sussex on 7/13/2008
Having looked at lots of highchairs and read all the reviews,I wanted ahighchair that looked nice but would also last and work well. I was really impressed when took it out of the box, pretty much assembled and looked fab, solid, secure and neutral.Putting my 6 mth in I was really disappointed that the tray wont fit over his head when he is seated in it or it wont extend out to put him in,without it doing either it makes it difficult to get him in and as he is already 9kg/20 lbs he wont fit in it for long!
I am really upset as it looks great and now that my husband has thrown away the box, it is money wasted we havent got!
from Loughton, Essex on 7/1/2008
Lightweight, simple and very practical. Our son is very happy in this highchair (but that might just be because he loves eating)!! It takes up minimal space and we like the idea that as he gets older we can flip the tray over and he will be able to eat at the table with us.
from Bristol on 6/29/2008
This would be no good for a younger baby - our son is 11 months and only just manages to sit straight enough to use this.

from Keynsham on 6/23/2008
As first time grandparents we were looking for a high chair that would fold away but be available quickily when needed. This totally fits the bill!
from Basildon, Essex on 6/23/2008
Good size, easy to set up and easy to keep clean. Highly recommended.
from Cheltenham on 6/19/2008
Really glad we bought this high chair. We wanted a folding wooden highchair for our 6 month old and this was the only one we could find. Really sturdy, looks nice and made more snug with a standard highchair insert. The only downside is that the tray is quite shallow and it doesn't completely come off, but it does swing over to the back of the chair (when child's not in it!).
from Edinburgh on 6/11/2008
I use the highchairs in my restaurant. Thet are perfect for this use as they are easily erected, folded away and stored and wipe clean with no akward crack and crevices that hinder cleaning. I am also about to become a father for the first time and I will be buying one of these chairs for my child...albeit with extra padding as it will be used more often and for longer periods :-)
from essex on 6/5/2008
I ordered this highchair because we wanted a wooden one and it was a very reasonable price. I was really pleased when it turned up and was so lovely looking! I don't think the picture does it justice. I am very pleased with this product and would definitely recommend it to a friend.
from Farnborough, Hampshire on 5/27/2008
We're really happy with this highchair, especially as we have now purchased a padded insert to support our baby until she grows a bit bigger. It's a shame Kiddicare doesn't seem to sell those, too.
from Chipping Ongar, Essex on 5/21/2008
Bought this highchair for looks, not for comfort, as it goes with my kitchen (yes, I am going to "bad mother hell"), but did relent in the end and bought a cushion for it in John Lewis. Now my baby fits in it more shuggly and doesn't bang his head. I loved the fact that it's delivered nearly whole (only had to attach the pendestal)as I couldn't fact having to put it together in kit form like my bugaboo.
from East Grinstead, West Sussex on 5/10/2008
Really good, well made chair. Our daughter loved it from the very first time she sat in it. We did order a high chair insert for it to make it a little more comfy. Using it is a pleasure as it fits up to the table with or without the tray. Very pleased with our purchase and have already recommended it to other new parents.
from Cambs on 5/4/2008
Very sturdy, simple, clean design. Goes well with modern furniture. Baby seems very comfortable. However a cushioned high chair insert is a must for younger babies. The cream coloured safety harness is also a bit difficult to keep clean. Black would be more appropriate.
from Ash, Surrey on 5/4/2008
This high chair is great! It looks very stylish, is comfortable and supportive (with a high chair cushion insert) and folds away easily when not in use. It is also versatile, as you can have the tray up or down, meaning baby can sit at the table with you too!
from East Yorkshire on 5/1/2008
Very good high chair, brought to replace fabric/metal chair as it was horrible to clean. This chair is great, delivered almost complete (you only need to attach bottom rests - 2mins), very easy to clean and use. Not very portable but overall a great chair.
from London on 4/29/2008
[...]Chair is good however you have to put baby into the chair once the tray is down, as you can't lift it over the baby's head-which seems crazy. Disappointed with that aspect of the highchair but generally very good.
from Glasgow on 4/4/2008
Fits well in our small kitchen. Looks good and goes with other wooden furniture. Our 6-month-old is comfortable in it when used with a padded insert. Folds away easily, but we tend to keep it up at the table as it is so compact. Only drawback is it is you cannot adjust the height, but the tray does flip over to the back and it's not too high, so you feel like your baby is sitting at the table with you.
from london on 4/3/2008
firstly, it looks better than the photo. the colour of harness not black but beige so it really matchs well. very compact and easy to use.
it could be used without tray.
many of stokke(with basic baby set it's almost three times expensive!) ads say without tray children could be part of family life.
i also believe it is important to socially include children, especially around the table.
but sometimes we do need tray.
that's why i choose this traditional but amasingly compact high chair.
from Thame Oxon on 3/31/2008
Better looking than any of the plastic chairs on the market and far more robust. Once fitted with a seat insert, it looks the part and enables our daughter to sit at the head of the table at dinner time. Highly recommended.
from Guildford, Surrey on 3/22/2008
Fits in perfectly with our other furniture in our lounge and our wood flooring. As we don't have a large house, the highchair is ideal as compact and folds easily. Really recommend this product. Only disadvantage it has cream harness which may not be the most practical.
from Northants on 3/22/2008
A good choice highchair for a toddler. Can be used for drawing and pusing up to the table aswell as mealtimes. Whilst it is folding it doesnt stow away very easily and the straps are cream! That said I would still recommend.
from Leicester on 3/21/2008
This highchair gets used every day. It can be used either at the table or with its own tray. It fits in nicely with our wooden dining furniture and is not too big. We've added a cushion for extra comfort.
from kent on 3/16/2008
A smart, attractive high chair. It is a good height and suitably compact when folded. The tray can be folded right back out of the way which is useful. I will need to buy a highchair insert though as my baby looks a bit uncomfortable at the moment.
The chair looks good and doesn't take up too much space, but it is not very comfortable for the baby as it doesn't recline. The baby also seems to slip down in the chair all the time.
The tray is very small, so any toys end up on the floor immediately.
from Gloucestershire on 3/13/2008
Great for keeping my grandaughter amused when we are eating.
from London on 3/13/2008
I love this highchair. Our daughter has used many different types and this works best. It is so versitile - we can pull it up to the table or she can use the tray. It can be used from quite early on with the cushion and is easy to clean. It folds away easily too.
from London on 3/13/2008
Very sturdy highchair, easy to fold, tray folds over the back so takes up less space if you decide to keep chair up unfolded.
Great for a smaller baby (6mth onwards) although a seat insert helps keep them upright and makes it more comfy.
Very easy to clean. Tray may be smaller than some plastic highchairs but seems fine so far.
from London on 3/1/2008
I love this highchair, it looks great and is very stable.
from london on 2/27/2008
Value for money wooden chair- stable, safe as 5 point harness
from Cumbria on 2/25/2008
Easier to clean than your average plastic chair. It blends in with the rest of our kitchen/dining furniture being wood rather than garish plastic. Also the catches and fastenings are made of metal so I think will be much more robust. Our previous highchair only lasted a few months because the moving parts were plastic so once broken, unrepairable.
Another plus is the harness can be removed and washed easily.
from Berkshire on 2/23/2008
An adaptable, solid highchair. Needs an insert for a small baby.
from norfolk on 2/22/2008
excellent design & easy to assemble. Only gripe is cream coloured safety harness-perhaps not the most practical colour!
from bristol on 2/15/2008
It looks great with our table and chairs, a really solid well made high chair made out of the most natural material in the world!
from Telford, Leegomery on 2/10/2008
We used to have the same highchair but the non-foldable one and we loved it. As our dining room is quite small, we thought a foldable highchair would be better. Again not disappointed. It is good looking, easy to clean, light and easily stowed. It is a perfect highchair.
from Essex/Suffolk border on 2/7/2008
My 4 nearly 5yr old likes to use it too with the tray flipped back sitting at the table.
When my baby was smaller, 6mths, I realised why some highchairs(but not this one) have backs that can be reclined. When they drink their bottle of milk they cant tip the bottle up high enough. Doh!
This is the only, small, negative.
Its a good looking sturdy chair that looks handsome in the kitchen.
from London on 2/7/2008
My 22 month old daughter has used this since she was 6 months old and it has stood the test of time. I am considering buying another for my 2nd child as oldest still uses it for every meal and sitting at the table to draw etc.
from Herts on 1/29/2008
My daughter is 4 months so a fairly early weaner but this chair is great.
I have however made some little cushions so she fits in it better while she is so small.
It is easy to clean and looks great with the rest of our furniture. I have read reviews about plastic high chairs that are bulky and look awful in a nice modern kitchen.
Bad points are her bottom does sometimes slip forward so we have to push her back. She is still not sitting up unaided so can bang her head on the back. These things will all be solved when she grows a bit (as I say an early weaner).
I am very happy with the chair, would recomend it and is very good value for money.

This chair is so easy to keep clean with a removable insert (you have to buy one separately) and withstands all the banging and gnawing that a baby being weaned can throw at it. I love that you can flip the tray over the back, put baby in and bring it to the table as a 'chair' so baby can be part of your meal and not have the tray in the way. The tray isn't huge but is more than large enough for a plate, drink, and snacks for baby to pick up. We love this chair!
from York on 1/29/2008
We use the highchair for our 2 year old at our dinner table so she can sit with us. We don't use the tray as she likes to eat on the table with us.
The rubber stoppers on the base of the chair make it very hard to move the chair once child in it as they stick to floor, so you end up lifting the whole chair to move it in and out.
It's sturdy and easy to clean.
It's easy to fold away and goes right up to the table though won't fit underneath it.
from Herts on 1/29/2008
We are fairly early weaners (4 months) so our daughter is quite small. The highchair is very good and will be great when she is a bit bigger, in the mean time I have made a little cushion for the chair.
The chair is stable and looks great. I had read reviews of ugly cumbersome plastic chairs hence choosing the wooden one.
Her little bottom can slip forward at the moment and she can bang her head on the back but as I said a fairly early weaner!
I am very happy with the chair and would recomend it to friends

from Catford, London on 1/29/2008
This high-chair is not only very functional with it's easy to clean surface and non-slip feet, but it's also a keeper as it goes with our wooden dining room table and chairs, becomes an ordinary seat for an older child, and is so sturdy that I can see it lasting not only for our first child, but for all subsequent children too. After that, we'll be able to pass it on to someone else!
from Dorchester, Dorset on 1/28/2008
Great chair can use with tray or just push it out of the way to use directly at the table.
Needs the cushion for a bit of comfort, for the smaller babies.
Great chair that isn't too bulky and fits well into a dinning room suite.
from Surrey on 1/27/2008
The high chair looks good and works well with other dining room furniture. It is also very stable.
I found though that as the tray is not removable its difficult to clean. Also very quickly my baby has managed to unscrew the tray fixings and it can now not be moved back.
There also seem to be many other nooks and crannies which food can get stuck in.
from Buckinghamshire on 1/26/2008
Very sturdy & solid, good wood, not large & bulky like plastic highchairs, fits in well with other furniture
from Leicester on 1/25/2008
Bought without a cushion pad but needs one for comfort and keeping baby in the right position.
Very easily cleaned.
Looks good.
from Glasgow on 1/24/2008
This chair is much easier to keep clean than any other high chair we've tried before. Most of the plastic equivalents all seem to have many nooks and crannies to get food stuck in and this is a much simpler design with less places to clean. Also no plastic to crack, rip etc. It wipes down easily and also looks good so fits in with the rest of the furniture. A good buy if you want a baby chair in your nice dining room, but also looks good in the kitchen or anywhere. It can be used with the tray or without so when baby gets bigger they can sit at the big table easily. With the insert in, there isn't too big a gap between baby and tray - another problem we'd had with previous high chairs. I probably wouldn't recommend it for a very small baby though, but once ours was out of the bouncy chair and sitting up properly this was fine for them.
The only disadvantages are that it doesn't stand up that well when folded so you need to lean it against a wall, but then it looks good so I don't mind leaving it out anyway. If you do fold it, it doesn't take up as much space as some of the bit sturdy plastic highchairs but I would watch where you put it so that a small child couldn't pull it over. Being made of wood, it could be a bit hard for a small baby but the padded insert works fine, our 10 month old likes to throw himself around, bouncing back and forwards in the chair etc. and so far he hasn't hurt himself or managed to rock the chair over... All in all I think it's been a great buy - good value, does the job well and a nice piece of furniture that should last us well, we love it!
from Campbeltown, Argyll on 1/24/2008
This product is not out of place in our restaurant. It is sturdy and good looking. It looks as if it will stand the test of time
from London on 1/24/2008
A good durable product that is easy to use, can be stored away without too much disruption and is very functional.
from Brighton on 1/22/2008
Good, solid high chair. No gimmicks or shiney plastic, it does exactly what it says on the tin. I like this chair because not only is it very easy to clean but it also doesn't take up too much floor space and can be folded flat out of the way.
On the down side it is quite heavy, so not much good for easy transportation, but at the same time the weight make it very stable. It would take a very strong toddler to rock it over!
from North Devon on 1/22/2008
I wish this highchair had been available when my children were babies. It's just perfect and looks fantastic in the kitchne or dining room. The fabric cushion washes well and makes the highchair very cosy. The tray is of good size and folds away neatly to allow the chair to be used at the table.
from Stockport, cheshire on 1/21/2008
This is the best high chair on the market easy to clean, a classic design.Kiddicare was the best price [...].
from Surrey on 1/21/2008
I wanted to buy a highchair that went well with our 'country' look kitchen. Something not too bright but tradtional looking. This highchair matched the criteria perfectly. It's easy to wipe down and most inserts fit it well.
It packs away nicely and doesn't look out of place in the home. Good for boys and girls and ever so sercure and sturdy.
from Bucks on 1/21/2008
I started out with one of the cheapest plastic highchairs we could buy. At the time it was before our baby was born so I wasn't really sure what I wanted. Very quickly I found that the plastic ones are hard to clean in the seams and quickly look grubby. I opted for a wooden one and relegated the plastic one to Grannie's! The East Coast folding highchair was a good option and reasonably priced from Kiddicare. It is easy to clean and sturdy although I guess that means it is a bit heavier but we don't move it. It also has the option of flipping the tray overhead to become a chair at the table so is very versatile in that sense. It is an ideal height for our table although this is something you should check as it is not adjustable. I am very pleased with it and it works well with the fabric inserts you can buy cheaply to help with younger babies.
from South Cambs on 1/19/2008
My baby is 10 months and she still slumps down in the highchair as the straps don't fit very well round the Eggbert and Clover cushion and there is no central bar to keep her upright. It needs a central bar! (didn't think about that when I bought it).
But I love the simple design and it is easy to clean.
from Cambridge on 1/19/2008
Looks good, very easy to clean and great for eating at the table or using the tray. More compact then others and folds away well.
from Derbyshire on 1/18/2008
Really like this high chair because...
It's not too big, but it?s very stable. I liked the idea that I can fold it, but as its design is quite compact, I don't bother and it stays in the same place. I really like the fact that as it's all wood, it looks smart, it's really easy to clean and there's no plastic parts that will split or break over time. It wipes clean really easily and it should last a long time as the tray flips over the back of the chair when not needed so the seat can be used up against a normal table when the baby is older. My only very slight gripe is with the tray - I wish the tray had slightly higher sides as I think this would help with less food and spills on the floor. Having said that, this is an economy priced wooden chair and I think I got good value for money. I initially bought a separate high chair insert cushion to provide a bit of extra padding, which I now don't use but was useful when my baby was younger. You can also unscrew the straps from the chair so that you can give them a good scrub and a soak if needed.
from Surrey on 1/16/2008
Really simple to use and clean. The tray folds back neatly so it can easily be pulled right up to the table for use as a chair.
The only negative I have found is that it isn't very supportive for young or small babies - my daughter did slump over to one side a bit when she was smaller.
I would also recommend buying a cushion/liner
