Pros: Small enough to keep in a closet, easy to keep clean, and easy to use
Cons: No recline, no height adjustment, no wheels, and no removable tray
The Bottom Line: I would buy this chair again. It has some drawbacks, but it makes up for those drawbacks by being easy to use and very compact.

| avington77's Full Review: J. Mason Country Classics Compact Highchair J6201 |
We bought this highchair to use at my mother's house because she needed a chair that didn't take up space. I think that we paid about $35 for it at Target. This chair lacks many of the bells and whistles on some of the more popular new highchairs, but it suits our needs very well.
This chair does not recline. The height cannot go up and down like most newer chairs. It has no wheels. It does not have a removable tray top that can go in the dishwasher. The belt is only a three point harness, and the chair padding is decent not the best. My daughter was about six months old before she could sit in this chair without sliding around. The belt buckle is easy to get pinched on.
However, I can't stress enough how small this chair folds down. It comes basically assembled. It is easy to get the hang of setting the chair up. It is very easy to keep wiped down and clean.
Since we use this chair as a spare, I have the experience of owning another chair to compare it to. The only feature I really use that the j.mason model lacks are the wheels. The removable trays that go in the dishwasher don't usually fit in the dishwasher, so having a regular tray to wash by hand isn't much more work. The extra padding on other chairs is harder to keep clean. This model is not great for a baby who is not sitting up well, but you could consider using a bouncy seat or infant carrier until your baby is sitting well. If you have a small space the j.mason model is a good chair at an excellent price.
