Gremlins have been out of high chairs since about 13 mths, they discovered that if they rocked backwards and forwards hard enough they could tip them over, and failing that they'd just climb out Mind you, we had budget high chairs, lil miss is gonna have a flaaaash one ]]> Sun, 26 Oct 2008 21:55:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21955&PID=527921&title=highchairs-how-long#527921 <![CDATA[Highchairs - how long??? : my 3 year old still sits in the...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21955&PID=527919&title=highchairs-how-long#527919 Author: fattartsrock

Sorry Freesia - can't spell. it is Tripp Trapp made by Stokke. They are $$ but great. Children can use them for years as a regular chair - sort of grows with them. One of the few that us strong enough for an adult to sit on. Can be used as a desk chair for homework etc. Here is a link to the American website - it has more info than the local sites.

The Mocka ones are only $89 as opposed to the Ikea which are a bit more expensive. We were looking at the pictures on the net and couldn't see a difference between them though. Maybe just slightly different in size.

Do you like the one from Kiwibaby Bobbie?]]> Sun, 26 Oct 2008 17:38:33 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21955&PID=527746&title=highchairs-how-long#527746 <![CDATA[Highchairs - how long??? : Freesia we have the same one they...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21955&PID=527724&title=highchairs-how-long#527724 Author: Bobbie

Freesia we have the same one they use at Columbus so if you give that a try and like it you can find it at Kiwibaby for $140

Edit: AN E has a Mocka (or something very similar) and it's very good - if you're willing to pay a bit more then I would recommend that.

we have a trip trap and Amy still eats all her meals at it. At the moment we stil have the bar across it so it is in high chair mode. It is great as she is at the same hight at the table as everyone else. We will get one for Sophie soon too I think. She is in a regular high chair at the moment and the gap between her and the tray is anoying. She need another cushion to prop her closer because of the angle of the seat.]]> Sun, 26 Oct 2008 14:11:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21955&PID=527663&title=highchairs-how-long#527663 <![CDATA[Highchairs - how long??? : So it sounds as if we&#039;d still...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21955&PID=527634&title=highchairs-how-long#527634 Author: Freesia

So it sounds as if we'd still get quite a bit of use out of it them.

I like the look of the designer one because it look's so easy to clean. Although I suppose the wooden one wouldn't be too bad either - much easier than the one we have with cushions on it.

We have a really cheap table that rocks about so it's no good for a clip-on seat.]]> Sun, 26 Oct 2008 13:26:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21955&PID=527634&title=highchairs-how-long#527634 <![CDATA[Highchairs - how long??? : Isla turned 2 last week and she...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21955&PID=527604&title=highchairs-how-long#527604 Author: Kellz

Isla turned 2 last week and she still always sits in the highchair. If she didnt want to we wouldnt make her nwo that she older, but she happy as and asks to go in there. She does the same at daycare too, even tho she has the choice to sit at the tables with the other kids.]]> Sun, 26 Oct 2008 12:12:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21955&PID=527604&title=highchairs-how-long#527604 <![CDATA[Highchairs - how long??? : Ella still uses hers for dinner...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21955&PID=527571&title=highchairs-how-long#527571 Author: Mum2ET

A convertible/chair type one sounds like a good idea!! Or you could get one of those clip on ones (like a P&Ts Me Too) if you had a decent table to attach it to.

we got the mocka designer one with the insert. theres a bit of a gap between the tray and eden but no more than normal i would say. its definitely a good price.
the wooden one is supposed to be really good too and it converts to a chair so definitely get your moneys worth. ]]> Sun, 26 Oct 2008 10:32:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21955&PID=527547&title=highchairs-how-long#527547 <![CDATA[Highchairs - how long??? : I think maybe Bizzy recently got...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21955&PID=527512&title=highchairs-how-long#527512 Author: kebakat

I think maybe Bizzy recently got one..

Daniel still uses his high chair.

We hate the highchair we currently have, Livvy can't reach the food on the tray and it makes her slouch/slump down. We're looking at getting her another one but I'm just wondering if it's worth it. How long did your bubs eat in a highchair for?

And has anyone tried one of these Mocka ones. A lady in our coffee group has an Ikea one and loves it and these look exactly the same.]]> Sun, 26 Oct 2008 09:29:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21955&PID=527498&title=highchairs-how-long#527498
