Beautiful Highchair
We registered for the Eddie Bauer products and got this one as a gift from my step-father since it was a family tradition for him. I love it. <
> <
>It is a beautiful chair and really looks nice when pulled up to the table with everyone else, so I just removed one of the chairs and leave it there. <
> <
>Since it's wooden it will surely last a long time unlike all the plastic and rust ready chairs out there. <
> <
>One thing to be careful of is to remove the insert in the tray if you are not going to wash it after each feeding, since drool and all kinds of yucky stuff tends to seep underneath it and can stain the actual tray if not taken care of right away. <
> <
>It's also true that it doesn't recline, so I had been feeding him in his bouncer chair. In order to prop him up (since he was leaning to the side) I was nustling a soft blanket next to him for a couple months as well. <
> <
>Another thing I remember was that when I was putting it together I had to remove a large label (which they stuck over the Eddie Bauer part on the chair). I had to be real carefull not to scratch the wood because it was stuck on there a bit too well. Hopefully they used a softer glue on others. <
> <
>Overall this a wonderful highchair and I highly recommend it.

NOT a first-time mom!!
One thing that I want to note up front is how many reviewers that love this chair bought it to replace the plastic reclinable chairs on wheels (just like me). <
> <
>We had the Evenflo highchair for the first one - by seven months (and we fed her in the bouncy chair until five and a half months) she could throw herself back hard enough to recline the chair all the way back, and it never stayed all the way up again. By ten months, she would take the entire tray off and yell "All done!" while throwing her lunch before I could even stop her. Also, it came with a cloth cover, which had all the drawbacks of the EB cloth cover, but you couldn't use the plastic highchair without the cover, so you had to wash it every time. At least with wooden chairs, you can always remove the cover. <
> <
>Even before baby #2 came along, she had climbed up on the Evenflo chair so many times the footrest was starting to crack, and after eating at Cracker Barrel about a dozen times, my hubby said "let's just get a wooden high chair." <
> <
>Now, I don't have this chair, just a regular wooden one, but I can tell you three things that all new moms should know about highchairs: <
> <
>1) There is not a single high chair on the market that is perfect. Food will collect in the small spaces of ANY high chair, no matter who makes it and whether it is wood, plastic or sheet metal. <
> <
>2) Your child will figure out how to do SOMETHING in the high chair that you are unhappy about - get up and move around, recline herself, remove the tray, etc. It is not the manufacturer's responsibility to figure out how to prevent every little thing, that is why every chair comes with a warning: "DO NOT LEAVE CHILD UNSUPERVISED". <
> <
>3) If you are moving your high chair around constantly, you are either trying to get too much done while you are supposed to be feeding your child, or you are leaving your child in the high chair for too long - it is not meant as a playpen/babysitter, it is meant as a feeding chair! <
> <
>This (or any other well-made wooden high chair) is the one and only high chair I think anyone would ever need, and it seems like they last forever, which is a lot more than I can say for the cheap (as in quality, because no one ever said costing up to $159 was cheap for a high chair!) plastic ones that are SO UGLY and take up SO MUCH SPACE! <
> <
>I also found that the restraint on my wooden highchair was insufficiently tight, so I use a leather belt around my child's waist that is thread along the back of the highchair. Don't know if that would work with this chair, but it is a thought.
