Kids high chairs get pounded by use. We don't mean to give into hyperbole, but if you haven't tried to scrape day-old dried mashed potatoes off of wood, then you have yet to struggle in life. You're going to want to find a chair made of quality materials, not some particle board junk.
When it's time to move your seat and foot board because your little one has become ... well ... less little, you are going to wish you had a chair that was made with quality tools by hand and has quality cuts. When it comes time to fit everything back together, you'll thank us.
Ok, we are pretty proud of this one. Ours is one of very few growing chairs on the market that comes standard with an activity table and cup / craft supply holder. Make this more than just a chair for mealtimes. Make it a place your little one wants to be all the time.
