I Love My New Highchair (Or I Must Have Very Little Stimulation In My Life At The Moment)

I absolutely love my new highchair that I bought for Isabel. I had it scoped out for awhile because I hated everything traditional (highchair) that I used with my son. The Peg Perego stunk big time! Hard to clean, bulky, he never wanted to be in it, never fit in with the room, always had to roll it out of the room when it wasn't in use...in other words..ick! (and expensive for the amount of time you use it!)


It's called the Svan Highchair. First, you can pick out a color that matches your decor. So, it actually matches your house. Second, you pick a cushion that is washable so you don't have to spend hours scouring a "non-washable" baby highchair cushion back. And see how she is pushed up to the table? The tray of the highchair hangs on the back of the highchair when not in use so she can "play at the table. See how she is pushed under the table? Oh my...I've never gotten so excited about a baby product. Someday..you will get excited about these things too.

But then the tray is snapped on for feeding times. But then the beauty of this product is this is a grow as you go product. It is also a toddler chair. The highchair portion comes off and it becomes a secure toddler chair. And because I became interested in this chair after I bought the Stokke Kinderzeat below, (for Ian when he was 18 months) I imagine it is made with the same secure innovative European type design.

Anyway, I don't plug baby products too often. This is the Stokke Kinderzeat above, by the way. (for 18 months and above) But, I know a lot of you are adopting and thinking about things to buy. You might look at the price of these and think Holy Cow, lady! But, I swear...these chairs are worth their weight in gold. I had no luck with highchairs, and they were a pain to clean. Plus, you don't use them for very long. The thing I like about this new highchair is not only does it look great, but it will last for a long time and will transition into a toddler chair. I am also hopeful that if it transitions into something like the Kinderzeat...it will be excellent because Ian sits in the Kinderzeat every night at dinner with us. They are incredibly sturdy, too, and do not tip easily at all. Meaning, he can climb into his chair by himself unasisted, and they can be adjusted as they grow. Great toddler chairs.
