You DONT get what you pay for.

Pros:Tray removal with one hand. Height adjustments easy and reclining seat.
Cons:The CHEAP leatherette hasn't even lasted a year.
The Bottom Line: I like it, but wouldn't recommend it - the chair is nice, but you don't get the quality you are paying for on the seat covering.
The Prima Pappa is a nice high chair - I'm not convinced it was worth $169.
What they did right:
One hand removable tray, Reclining Seat [my son has nodded off at least 50 times during/after lunch], adjustable height for sitting/standing, wheels for moving it room to room and it folds up nice and compact [although I've never needed to do this].
All of the functions work properly and easily after a year of use---however the White Leatherette material that covers the padded seat is terrible. It began to wear through in several spots in just 9 months. When I contacted Peg Perego about replacing the seat they said it would cost $50.
My friend has had the same problem with the leatherette.
I don't know about you, but I think quality materials should have been used on the seat on a $169 high chair.
Although I really like the features - I wouldn't buy it again - I wanted the chair to last through a few more babies and the seat already looks 10 years old. A little advise, if you've had the same problem....try white shoe polish on the worn spots, it doesn't fix them but hides them well.
