When the little babies start taking solids, that is probably the best time in a parents life. To cook small meals is another kind of pleasant experience any parent can get, but this pleasant experience turns into a rather messy one when you try to feed your child without restricting their approach to the meal; and when toddlers apparently believe they can feed themselves, the high chair is the only place to try to minimize the mess! So, putting them in the high chair makes things easy for everyone, you are the boss remember…(at least for the first few years..)

This high chair has something that no other high chair has – pneumatic lift!

So looking similar to a bar stool, this Boon Flair high chair is a pedestal high chair and works exactly like a bar stool does. 

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars and it’s a beauty for a number of reasons!

This cool looking high chair has some seriously amazing features and the prominent one, apart from the fact that it’s the only high chair with a pneumatic lift feature, is that is the easiest high chair to clean (ah, my laziness).

I remember, my sister had children before me, about 8 years prior, and I remember back then, she bought mostly Peg Perego baby gear (including a Peg Perego high chair) and they proved to be long lasting products and great value for money (under $300 – Get Latest Price).

The best selling and most popular high chair from Peg Perego is the Siesta High Chair (shown in the photo to the right (view all colors available here). It is similar to the high chairs above but it has 9 adjustable positions, 6 different reclining positions and super comfy polyester cushioning.

Overall, a great, comfy and super modern looking high chair available in 5 awesome colors: Arancia, Cacao, Licorice, Mela and Raspberry.

What Should You Look For When Buying a High Chair?

  1. Safety is the most important thing in buying a high chair, as falling down from one would not be pleasant for your little one. A strong five-point safety belt is a must and it must look sturdy.
  2. In my opinion a high chair with a tray is more comfortable and useful, the tray should be wider, but it’s your choice.
  3. A high chair should be as comfortable as possible with nice big padding to ensure ultimate comfort.
  4. The height of a baby high chair should be adjustable to several levels.
  5. Remember, your baby will be spilling their food all over it, so you would want one that is super easy to clean, think: both tray and materials.
  6. High chairs with wheels are easy to move and are very handy for you when you want to move your baby around whilst you are busy around the home.
  7. As this is the matter of your baby’s safety as they are elevated to a certain height, we would advise you buy a really good high chair from a reliable brand (hence our list above). Cheaper is not always the better, especially when it comes to ensuring safety for your child.

Don’t worry, each one of the high chairs we have recommended above, tick all the boxes above.

Other Uses of A High Chair

A high chair is necessary for your child’s protection and safety and makes both eating (whilst playing, of course!) easy, fun and safe for your child and also for yourself.

When I bought a high chair for my first kiddo, I used to put him in it and kept the high chair near me while doing laundry or cleaning. There are countless uses of a high chair; they are not only for the feeding purposes.

A high chair also allows for your child to feel himself when eating with the family at meal times, as they will be on equal level with rest of the family.

Anna About Anna

Hi Moms and Dads, Anna here and welcome. I'm a relatively young mom, in my early 30's and my husband and I have 2 young (and incredibly cheeky) children. With my first child, I was confused about absolutely anything that had 'baby' written on it. I felt flustered and overwhelmed. For some Moms I believe it comes naturally, for others it takes a bit of work and patience, and the latter was me. With my second child, all those first round nervous flusters were gone and I approached everything ease, although I do admit, in between 2 children, baby products and my needs and wants had changed and in the baby/infant world, things change very quick and products that were suggested a few years back are now out of date, recalled or just not suitable no more. So it's not only your little bub that grows; products change and the needs and wants of your baby and you change also.
