Height Right HIGH Chair Natural with Grey Infant Insert and Tray

I spent days reading reviews and trying to find a basic wood high chair, ideally one that could adjust and grow with our daughter. I finally settled on the Keekaroo, despite some concerns that I read in some of the negative reviews. So far, most of the negative comments that I read seem completely unwarranted so I just wanted to address those specifically: Loose Boards (seat or footrest): I don't know if Keekaroo has made changes in their Height Right chair over the last few years, but after setting our chair up there's no possible way the footrest or seat boards could ever come loose or fall out. Yes, its true that they don't have any screws or bolts directly into them. Instead, they are squeezed tight by the frame, but are very secure. The black bar you see in the description photo (there are two bars total) actually squeezes the frame even tighter which allows you to really clamp it down on the footrest and seat boards. Unless you fail to tighten it down or neglect to use the metal bars, nothing is budging on this thing! The Tray: Some people said the tray is cumbersome and requires full use of two hands to remove. I found that the tray slides in and out quite easily. There are latches on each side that you need to squeeze to take it off, but I simply unlatched one side at a time and was easily able to pull the tray off one-handed. Your Childs Stability: We bought this chair for our six-month old and made sure to get the one with the infant seat. In my opinion, if your child is 1 year old or younger, you need the infant seat. It really helps our daughter sit up straight, she doesn't slide or move around at all and she loves it! Without the infant seat a young, smaller child would easily slide around and likely be very uncomfortable. Also, the infant seat is secured in three ways. It gets strapped to the metal bar beneath the seat board. The back of it fits snugly underneath the backrest. The bottom is secured to the seat boat with velcro. This is extremely stable. Adjustments: To adjust the chair as your child grows, you just have to loosen (not disassemble) the screws on one side to slide the boards up and place higher or lower, then you just tighten it back down. Very quick and simple. Additional Comments: Depending on how active your child is, it would be a good idea to put a folded blanket or cushion behind them. While our daughter's head sits just above the backrest, she leaned back really fast and it made us nervous that she would hurt the back of her neck. Like you, I really rely on reviews for most of my purchases and unfortunately I feel like some of the negative reviews on this chair seem to be the result of user error or false expectations (it's not a big disposable piece of plastic). My wife and I are very pleased with it.

Recently I bought 2 of these chairs, one for my 6 month old son and one for my 3 year old daughter and I love them. I wish I had bought my daughter one when she was younger. Putting the chair together wasn't easy but it wasn't bad either. It is study and seems to be well made. it looks nice in my dining room and most importantly, it works well for my son. With the infant insert, the clips on the seat and the tray, my son in nice and secure. I would definately recommend the infant insert though. I wouldn't feel comfortable with him in there without it. he seems to be comfortable although if he starts throwing a fit it is possible for him to hit his head on the wooded back. I think he has done it once in the last 2 weeks. One of the features I like best is that you can adjust the seat height relative to the tray, which I have not seen on any of the 5 high chairs we have owned over the last 3 years. This would have been nice for my daughter since she is really short and I always felt like the tray was at chin height. It is nice for my son because he is huge and the chairs we have that worked for my daughter squeeze his little cute fat legs. It is also nice to know that this chair will fit him as he grows (my 3 year old loves hers and can now sit comfortably at the table without having to sit on her knees). A couple of the reviews I read mentioned that they wished it came with a plastic tray. Mine did, so apparently the company has improved that component. The tray snaps over the wooden part. Overall I am very happy with this chair and am relieved to finally have found one that works. Update: It has now been 1 1/2 years since I bought the chairs. My kids are 2 and 5. Both still like the chairs and still sit in them. They still look good and are in good shape. I also really like that the food wipes off of them really easily, even if it has dried on and been sitting for a while.

I've had this highchair for about 3 months. This is a durable, sturdy highchair. The finish is nice and smooth and is easy to clean. I usually remove the infant insert and plastic tray cover and wash in the sink. The tray has two possible positions (although I believe three would be ideal) with two handed release. The chair is exactly as pictured. Easy, one-person assembly. Allen key is provided although a second is needed to tighten the upper bar. The chair arrived within 2 business days with super saver shipping, and was packaged well. CONS: 1 - Heavier than most highchairs (although with this weight comes better stability). 2 - The harness system is a bit frustrating in that the center strap sometimes slips down into the infant insert requiring that it be fished out. 3 - One of the screws was stripped when I received it, so I called the company and they shipped a replacement out free of charge pronto. 4 - The BIGGEST CON is the tray release mechanism; it's quite tricky to get the tray removed and takes longer than I wish it did particularly when trying to deal with a choking baby. 5 - Offers no support for babies head so should only be used in babies with good neck control. The height of the back rest is such that my baby can turn her head around chew on it. OVERALL I'm happy with this highchair and would've given it 5 stars if the tray were easier/quicker to remove. If a quick and easy tray-release mechanism is important to you consider an alternative.

I received this highchair, infant insert, and tray last week. My husband set it up in about 30 minutes, and it was immediately put to use. We love it! I had several concerns after reading the other reviews, namely that I wouldn't be able to take the tray off easily. It does require the use of both hands, but it's very easy to adjust. It does only have two settings, but they work fine for my 7 month old. I can slide him into and out of the seat with the tray in it's widest open setting, and then click it into the smaller setting once he's in the chair. I didn't feel comfortable with the way the waist strap was set up (running from the bottom of seat, through infant insert, and around baby) because it hit baby more on his legs and hips instead of around his waist. It was an easy fix though; I took the plastic pieces off and ran the webbing through the holes in the back of the chair. It took about 5 minutes for this modification, and now it is securely around baby's waist. I have been a bit nervous about leaving any standing water on the chair, as I have read about the wood warping, but so far I haven't had any problems. One frustrating design flaw is that it's tough to get any water out from under the infant insert. (There are holes in the insert that crumbs and water can fall through, onto the wood below.) But it hasn't been a big problem, as I am still able to get a cloth in under the seat to wipe away crumbs/water. We did use the provided velcro to help keep the infant insert in place, but I don't think it's necessary since the insert "latches" onto the front and back of the chair anyway. Without the velcro, I think it would be easier to nudge the seat up and clean underneath. So far, we love it! It matches my table and furniture nicely, and it seems very comfortable for baby to sit in. I didn't want to spend the big bucks for a high end high chair like the Svan or Stokke, and this is a very good mid-range chair. It has nice lines, is sturdy and well-constructed, and I think it will easily last through a couple of kids.

I bought this 3 years ago and it is still going strong. I purchased this high-chair for my daughter, who just turned 3 and I think she'll probably use this for another 2 years as she is on the smallish side. This thing is super durable, made of nice wood. It is also very stylish and practical. For me, it is sort of a nice investment as I know I'll be able to sell this in 2 years for maybe 1/2 price. That's 5 years of use out of this and I'd still be able to sell it for a decent price as it is good quality. Forget buying one of those ugly, plastic high chairs. Those don't last as long and they'll just end up broken, stained and/or in a landfill after 5 years. This one, on the other hand, you'd be able to pass down to your kids and maybe even grand-kids. It fits in with nice decor and it is easily adjustable, so this will grow with your child! This was one of my favorite "baby items" purchases.

Not too bad to assemble, lots of parts and lots of steps but it is pretty straightforward. When it is finally together, this chair is nice and sturdy. But after you get it out together it is nearly impossible to get it completely clean without disassembling it! And I have two dogs that try to “clean” it after every meal. In the picture it shows how the straps specifically get disgusting and need to be washed. I routinely wipe down the chair but have to go get the tools to take the seat of in order to take the straps off to wash them. I would recommend changing the screws to snaps to at least make it a little easier. I am also concerned that the screws will strip out because the go directly into the wood and not an insert of any kind. Pros: Sturdy Looks nicer than some of the bulky plastic chairs Quality materials and production Snap on plastic tray cover Cons: Very heavy, hard to scoot into table Detachable tray is very narrow (does not work with the popular silicone mats like EZPZ products) Very hard to clean Overall I would not recommend this chair. But since it is the only one we have tried I do not have other suggestions and because of the price tag we are just going to stick it out with this one.

When we decided to look for a highchair, I was dissapointed in what we could find. Everything was either plastic with too many parts to keep clean, or way too expensive to consider. Then my husband found the Keekaroo brand, and we fell in love. We ordered it the next day and couldn't be happier with it. The instructions were very clear and easy to follow, and in no time at all the high chair is put together. It looks great in our kitchen and is very sturdy. It seems very comfortable for our 6 month old daughter. Her legs aren't long enough to reach the foot rest, but that doesn't bother her at all. She makes huge messes in it, and it only takes me a minute to wash the plastic tray cover and to wipe off the seat and chair. Like another reviewer suggested, I leave the tray upside down when not in use so that I can settle her in one-handedly. The infant insert is one of the best parts of this chair. It helps our daughter sit comfortable so she doesn't tip over to the side. And unlike other high chairs this insert is easy to just wipe off when dirty, instead of having to unsnap, uncover, wash in a washing machine. The green is slightly darker than the picture here, but still a great color. The only con I can think of is that this chair doesn't fold, so we can't really take it with us on trips. But that doesn't really bother me.

I would NEVER buy again! I had this chair on my list for months! I could hardly wait to purchase when my little was big enough! First off it's made in China... only foam chair made in USA misleading from description. I moved on from that and put it together which was a total pain!! One of the most frustrating projects in a while. Even still I was okay! Tray sits so low on baby it nearly is at hip level!!! Straps are coming up from seat so NOTHING holding whole baby body in! He leaned over and nearly bent in half! Made me so nervous. Seat does not stay attached to chair! I literally had to remove a rod and put chair lower to make it safer!!! MY BIGGEST problem!!! Tray!!!! It doesnt stay on! Cheap clips can be pushed off BY A 5 MONTH OLD. I cannot use this chair freestanding! I have to push it up against table so tray stays in! Without it there is nothing holding baby from falling straight out if they were to bend over. Im horrified. Please save your money
