5.0 out of 5 stars A safe, and clean chair!, July 3, 2005
By 
Cally ((rural) NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chicco Travel Seat Explorer (Baby Product)
We were having our "second" child, and had NO CLUE of what kind of chair to get since our daughters chair was HORRIBLE!.

Well, it turns out we were expecting twins (funny, many "owners" have twins) and we knew that we couldn't be cleaning two highchairs daily, especially since the one chair we had for our daughter was hard enough!

The wonderful features!

* A removable cloth seat. Its also dark which has proven useful for hiding stains

* A 3 point harness, or as some call it, a lap belt. This belt is attached to removable seat, not to the metal frame

* Two hippos that clamp to the top of your table. They are rubber, so they protect tables from scratches, keep the chair in place, and are pretty adorable. They also make it safe for small fingers! With other chairs our boys were able to reach underneath the grips and pinch their hands! OUCH!

* The chair folds into a carrying bag. This has proven convenient on many occasions, and we found it pretty easy to fold.

* Its lightweight, and fits nearly EVERY table!

* It can hold up to 37 lbs, that's A LOT of child for a small chair!

Our opinions

* The chair is so easy to clean. We are able to wipe it with a damp rag after meal time, and it dries in seconds. Its also machine washable, and drier safe! There's also NO nooks or crannies. No matter WHAT reviews say about highchairs, there ARE nooks and crannies in ALL of them!

* The cover is hard to take off, but that's a good thing considering you wouldnt want it to be too easy to remove!

* The chairs really do attach well to any table, and they are easy to remove and place on securely. For the people saying that you cannot eat at a table with one leg in the center, we found this untrue. We were able to either (1) Place the boys opposite of one another, to balance out the table (or if you only have one child, place something heavy on the other end!) (2) place a chair, with a booster seat (given out by the restaurants) under the seats to hold them up, or (3) request a booth and place them inside the booth, which also supports them well.

* Folding isn't something I would want to do after every meal, but its not as hard, for us, as everyone else describes it. It may take 3-5 minutes to fold a chair, but its certainly do-able! And once folded they are very flat, and very easy to travel with!

* The seat is quite spacious, but this is a good thing! A child around the age of 2.5 could probably still sit in the hippos, my daughter is 3 and can fit, but won't sit in a "baby chair", that's why I say 2.5! I also love that even though the seat area is large, our 13th percentile twins are able to feel secure!

* The harness is easy to adjust, and I feel keeps them from sliding out! There's nothing for them to use to push out of the seat, and there's really no way a baby/toddler could do this in under 3 minutes, which I feel is a long time to leave your child alone!

* There is no tray. This is very annoying, but we find that the suction cup mats are good enough to protect our tables. And the large gap between baby and the table is also fine. We keep those large/long plastic bibs with the pockets on the boys, so they dont really get messy. Wiping up a mat, and the floor is a lot more negotiable than dissembling a highchair for deep cleaning!

* I would DEFIANTLY say do not use the hippos until your baby can sit up properly, which for our boys was around 5.5 months old.

* The travel bags have proven to be excellent! We have managed to fit both chairs into one bag, which makes hauling them around that much easier! If you only have one, than this assures you that you wont need a diaper bag while going out to a restaurant! I also love that they included it, even if it "didn't work".

All in all the hippos are fantastic chairs. The boys, now 7 months, are eating at the table with us, and enjoying meal time. We also spend more time with the kids, than scrubbing and cursing over highchairs... A highly recommended product

5.0 out of 5 stars Great quality chair!, July 12, 2005
This review is from: Chicco Travel Seat Explorer (Baby Product)
When I found out I was expecting twins, my daughter was under a year old! When the babies were born, she was 13 months old, obviously still in a highchair.

I just couldn't clutter my kitchen with highchairs, its not anywhere near small, but I am not sure if ANYONE could truly handle three of them. I figured I would just use booster seats, but my daughter hated the *Three* different models that we bought for her. As a last resort we tried purchasing this hippo hook on, and she loved it!

She eats in perfectly now at 20 months old, and since it holds up to 35 lbs this isn't a problem. It brings her RIGHT up to the table, which she LOVES. Its also very comfortable and secure. I had always known it was on tightly, but I worried that my daughter may feel awkward, as if she was dangling off the table... but I doubt this thought ever crossed her mind! The chair is simple to wipe up with a damp washcloth, and I usually get all the gunk out that way. I have owned this chair for almost a year, and I see no reason to wash mine, especially since taking the cover off is such a production! The harness keeps her inside, and not once has she fallen out, or managed to escape, although for a few days her efforts were endless, but she never did it! The chair is also safe on your tables, and the hippos actually attract my daughters/sons attention! The one-legged table thing at restaurants has proved to be a problem... but with three babies, we dont go out much! We found the solution was to just use restaurant highchairs, and bring disinfectant wipes along! We were upset that there wasn't a tray, but after some time of using a regular placemat (its not going anywhere, its underneath the "hippos" and has a non-skid bottom) it was just as easy... and less messy, since she couldn't really throw anything off... I also was annoyed at the fairly large gap between her and the table, but she has managed, and it hasn't been anymore annoying than that of the highchair.

Her brothers are now 7 months old, and we recently (about 2 weeks ago) brought out two more chairs for them, and they love it! They are tiny, but have been holding up their heads for about 2 months now, so I was positive the time was right. All in all a great chair, that will last for years!

4.0 out of 5 stars convienent!, December 28, 2004
By 
S. Chung "ebbauer77" (Eumseong, South Korea) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Chicco Travel Seat Explorer (Baby Product)
i'm an american expatriate living in s.korea. we initially bought this b/c we'd be traveling back and forth so much. plus, high chairs (decent ones) are twice as much in this country. it's a great chair that hooks up easily and disassembles just was easily. my daughter doesn't mind sitting it since it gives her a good view of what's going on around her. it's also easy clean. the only thing i don't like too much is the fact that it doesn't seat her right up to the edge of the table, so if she drops something, down it goes. make sure your child can support his/her head well, and can sit up. i put my daughter in it even when she couldn't sit up by herself; the straps hold her in just fine. overall and very good investment for people that travel, are on the go a lot, or don't have much space for a high chair.
