Advantages: it folds flat,its winnie the pooh

Disadvantages: it allowed my boys to slip under

Again this is another product I bought for my twins. Knowing they were going to have to start being independant when it come to eating but safe at the same time I had to decide on what high chair to buy. So I decided on these which I bought on ebay for £30 each.

Each high chair came flat in the box and there was no having to put it together it was just a simple case of 'unfolding it'. I'd open it out and the tray was already attached to it. Underneath the tray on a pole were two metal bits sticking out, and on the bottom of the tray were to plastic bits with holes in. I had to push the tray down onto the pole making sure the metal bits poking out fitted securely into the holes. Once I had done this the highchair was ready to use. To fold it back up then for easy storage I would just have to pull both plastic bits and lift the tray at the same time, easy for us women as we can multitask (lol, having one of my funny days) Once you've done this the highchair is flat and folded, and can be stored in many spaces so it's not stuck in the middle of nowhere and your home is left tidy.

The 5point safety harness was easily adjustable to suit each boy as one was a slight bit big than the other. Despite the harness being quite secure in the fact that it came underneath the bums and up their belly to stop them slipping down, I found they did slip underneath the trays quite a bit and they were not even that small when using these so it wasn't a case of me putting them in the chairs too early.

The design of the high chair was lovely, not exactly the same as the picture above but it was still winnie the pooh. The ones I bought were a navy blue with just winnie the poohs head at the back. The good thing about the particular highchair I bought is it could be used for both boys and girls which is an added bonus.

Although I loved the fact the highchairs were Disney, and did look very attractive standing up out my kitchen, because of the fact both my boys slipped quite often underneath the tray, I personally wouldn't reccomend them. Next time I have a baby, I will definitely look into buy a different highchair and not go for the way 'it looks' again. I rate this highchair with just 3stars, although it was a lovely looking highchair and did have the odd good point about it, I'd rather a highchair which didn't allow my child to slip through at all.

Summary: a lovely looking highchair, but then looks aren't everything as this highchair proved
