Highchairs?

Little'un is just coming up to 6 months and is starting to show a real interest in weaning - I need a highchair that will support a baby who hasn't quite mastered sitting up, preferably with adjustable height, any recommendations/definite 'don't buy's? :)
If you lend someone £20 and never see them again, it was probably £20 well spent...

  • If baby is coming up to 6 months it wont be long till they are sitting up properly so I wouldn't waste my money on a highchair for how baby is now I would just get a normal highchair as most of them have reins anyway so sure they wont come to any danger.
    If practice makes perfect, and nobody is perfect....................................
    Why practice!:T

    If you do have the room, I had one like this when DD was a baby, as she had it from 6mths to 5 yrs, and we got value from money, as it does, high chair, low chair, table + chair.

    My dd is £10 now, I paid about £30, def shop around, xx

    One thing I would recommend is buying a high chair with a support that sits inbetween their legs which tends to keep them more upright. We luckily did although when we go to Nanny's house and the one she has is a standard chair and my son seems to start slipping down and then ends up a bit slouched in the chair.
    We bought the Cosatto Noodle after going to Kiddicare in Peterborough and trying them all out. It is height adjustable, folds for easy storage, a seat recline (my son has even fallen asleep in it when he was younger drinking his bedtime milk) and has a detachable tray which makes it so much easier for washing and getting them in and out of the chair as they get older and heavier. My son is 2 next month and still love his chair.
