When I started looking for a high chair for my youngest son, of course I wanted the best. I didn’t keep my oldest child high chair, so off shopping I went. I “thought” I wanted one of the fancy high chairs that do this and that and convert into...

Pros: Easy to clean, inexpensive
Cons: Vinyl cracks, not super-steady

Like the name says, this is a basic high chair. A flat seat, a flat back, a simple tray. No wheels, no adjustments, it's just a place to sit. But for most of us, that's all our babies need!

We bought this one because it was so cheap -...

Pros: It was cheap
Cons: Unstable and unsafe

I received this highchair as a baby shower gift from my grandmother. I used it because we had very little money and I could not afford to replace it.

The chair is very basic, it has a very narrow aluminum base, a vinyl seat cover, plastic...

Pros: The price is right!!
Cons: Not as fancy, and lacks some of the "grow with the child" features higher priced brands have

Pros: Durable, long-lasting, folds flat, inexpensive
Cons: Slight yellowish tinge to the tray and footrest from age

Okay, I am from the generation of eternal progression. Everything, seemingly just as it comes off the production line, is already being re-designed as a bigger and better model. However, growing up in this world of ever-increasing technology has...

Pros: Easy to set up, clean and transport.
Cons: None that I can think of. No, really.

The Cosco Basic High Chair is one of those products that when you're in the store (either very pregnant or with a squalling newborn) that simply amazes. Simply is the key word. I paid about $20 for my high chair. It doesn't look like a ...

Pros: Cheap,washes easily, sturdy,
Cons: really none !!

When I was first looking for a high chair I was mainly looking at price.. but then I also wanted one sturdy.. with a covering that was easily washable.. an adjustable tray and safety straps. I found the Cosco-bought it and LOVE it !! Could not live...

Pros: folds for storage, cleans easily, affordable
Cons: none

I got this high chair when my second child was born. We didn't have a lot to spend, so when we saw the price on this one compared to the others this was the one we choose. I am actually very glad we didn't spend a lot and decided to go with a less...

Pros: price,easy to clean,easy to store
Cons: chipping paint

I decided to buy this high chair when our old one started falling apart. It was on clearence at Walmart for only $10 so I had to try it out.

I have to admit that this high chair has not only stood the test of time but has endured the trials...

Pros: lightweight yet sturdy, long-lasting, easy to store and pack, inexpensive
Cons: original vinyl cracked and split

I have to say that this high chair is one of the best pieces of baby equipment we have ever gotten! I got it 19 years ago and the design is still the same! Obviously, Cosco knows they have a winner here.

At the time I got this high chair,...

Pros: easy to assemble, easy to use, light weight, portable, inexpensive
Cons: the seatbelt doesn't like to stay resting on the seat between uses, it tends to dangle behind the seat

When I was pregnant with my first child, I went looking for all the necessary baby items like many expectant parents. I didn't have a lot to spend though, so when I was shopping for high chairs and came across this one, I knew it was for me.

...

Pros: Inexpensive, sturdy enough
Cons: The vinyl split

When it came time to buy a high chair for child #1, we didn't have a lot of money, so we needed something pretty inexpensive, even though we thought we might have to replace it later. I've been pleasantly surprised - it has held up for almost 4 years...

Pros: low cost and easy storage
Cons: two handed tray removal, straps not easy to use, open sides and foot tray makes it easy to escape from

As a daycare provider I currently use several models in my daycare home.
This one is not one of the safest models and I have recently retired it.

The saftey straps are not easy to fasten around a wiggling toddler and almost impossible to...

Pros: durable, easy to clean, affordable
Cons: nothing holding child in but straps, after tray is removed

My father purchased the Costco Basic High Chair for my 11 month old son, when it became necessary for us to stay at his home longer than anticipated. We had a strap in booster seat with a small tray attached, but the tray was rather small, and Mason...

Pros: Inexpensive
Cons: hard to clean, unstable

I bought this chair for my parents to keep at their house after my son was born. While it is great for while we are there, it isn't one I would necessarily choose for use at home. It cannot be positioned for a very young child to sit in, since it...

Pros: Easy to put together, reversible pad, one hand operation of the tray
Cons: Tray latches on the sides,an older child can reach them!

We bought this high chair for two reasons. #1, it's a Cosco. #2, the price. It was on sale for $17.99, and we needed a second high chair.

The day we bought it, we went to my father-in-laws house. He invited us to stay for dinner, so my...

Pros: Sturdy, built to last.
Cons: None.

This high chair was the first 'getting bigger' thing we bought our first child. Zachary was six months old, starting to sit up on his own, and of course, all the books say that's when they are ready to start eating foods!
We got the cosco basic...

Pros: middlebar for legs, liftable padding in chair for easy cleaning
Cons: none

This highchair is absoulutly great. I have purchased two of them and the reason being is for one the bar in the middle of the legs prevent your child from sliding out of the chair and posibbly choking himself. Also the seat cover lifts up so you can...

Pros: Really, really lasts.
Cons: Tray doesn't always click on very easily.

I received a basic Cosco high chair as a baby shower gift with my first child. It is the bottom of the line in price and style, and although I was very grateful for it and happy with it, I told my husband, "We'll have to buy another one by the time...

Pros: Inexpensive and fairly durable
Cons: Does not fold up

I work in child care and these are the high chairs we use. We have 8 of them and they are great!

We have had them for almost 2 years and they are still in like new condition. They are good high chairs for the price we paid. They are easy...

Pros: affordable, practical, durable
Cons: no special features

Pros: Wonderful chair. Easy to clean. Easy to use
Cons: Price was a little high

Pros: Low cost, durable, easy to clean
Cons: Doesn't recline for infant feeding, not on wheels

Although this high chair doesn't have any bells or whistles, it's a great chair for a great price. Once my son could sit up by himself, there was no need for a chair that reclined or detached or did anything else fancy, like many of the more expensive...

Pros: Price, Durable, Stable
Cons: Basic

The Cosco Basic High Chair is so inexpensive I had to look twice at the price. I wanted a high chair with all the bells and whistles or a nice wooden job with a beautiful finish, until I smartened up.

I though to myself, why do I need the...

Pros: Minimal Cost, Easy to Clean & Assemble
Cons: Insufficient Seat Cover/Cushion

Let's face it . . . High Chairs take a lot of abuse from tiny tots to toddlers. But you don't need to spend a lot to get a lot! The Cosco Basic High Chair is certainly not the Cadillac of High Chairs . . . it's just what it's name implies - BASIC. But...
