When the time came to start...

Pros: Adjustable
Cons: cleanup is a chore

I love this high chair. We've had one for 5 years now. The same one. The only thing we've done is replace the padding twice through Playskool for $11. What I loved about it is you could use it much earlier than you could a regular high chair. The chair...

Cons: easy for kids to hide their food

For a while anyway. My daughter was an escape artist.

We had an Evenflo highchair and she was constantly getting out of it, at 6 months of age!! I got the Playskool 1-2-3 from a friend who was selling hers. The first time I used it, I loved...

Cons: large to store

I had planned to buy a plain old high chair with no bells or whistles. One that didn't recline, I figured what do you need all this snazzy stuff for just to eat and get messy. I didn't even shop around for high chairs or compare like I did for months...

Pros: Easy to clean, reclining option, great design.
Cons: Not sturdy enough for active children.

We purchased this model because of it's reclining capability. I never used it to feed my son his bottle when he was a baby but I did use it to "hold him" when I was in the kitchen doing dishes or cleaning in general. It held him comfortably...

Cons: Have to learn trick to getting the belt off for cleaning. Legs are wide apart and take up more space then most models.

In my years as a daycare provider I have seen many high chair designs come and go. When I first got my Playskool 1-2-3 Chair it seemed to fit the bill.

It is definitely a safe model. The child is restrained by a saftey bar and belt when the...

Pros: Easy to clean, grows with the child.
Cons: Bulky, doesn't fold up to a compact size.

When my son was born, I wasn't prepared to be a mom. Baby furniture was yet another world to be explored. I didn't see why I should spend $100 on a high chair when they make models that cost $20. Then I got the Playskool 1-2-3 in the mail from my...

Pros: Versatile, sturdy and safe
Cons: I hate the pattern of our seat cushion! (but that's just me!)

Cons: not durable does not withstand normal everyday routine of feeding and infant and toddler.

The reclining...

Pros: Adjustable

The Playskool 1-2-3 High Chair is a great value. It adjusts in height so it can go from infant to a toddler chair. I just love the way it tilts. The chair has 3 positions. When the baby is small and can't sit well, the seat lays back. This can be...
