5.0 out of 5 stars wonderful October 3, 2010

By Shannon B Davis TOP 1000 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

Let me tell why I love this high chair, even though it's garish and looks like a baby took over our condo (well, he did). I was told by other moms in my moms' group that this was the chair to get, and they were right.

It was fairly easy to put together, and once we had it, we've left it unfolded in our dining room. It has 7 height adjustments. We have used two - the highest height and we recently moved it down so that our son can eat at the table with us without the tray. The tray itself is a wonder - it snaps on and off, and has a removable insert that you can wash in the dishwasher. Without the insert, you can snap in a toy with lights and music (batteries not included). There is also a tiger teether tethered to the side of the tray.

The biggest issue with babies when they eat is the mess. So the high priority for us was an easy to clean chair. It fits the bill. The fabric doesn't have any crevices for food to get caught in, and we can wipe it clean with a moist paper towel. As I mentioned, the tray is dish-washable. We did find food under the seat cover - assuming that happens on every chair, it's nice that it's easy to remove the cover.

So, the only two problems with it that I could see are the bright, garish "child" look and feel that may not go well with your home decor (and to that, I say, it's nothing compared to the bouncer, the swing, the stationary play center, the toy bin, the push & go and so forth). Also, our son now points to the frog on the chair, so it's giving him some visual stimulation. The other problem for some people may be the size. It does fold up but unfolded it takes up the space of a dining room chair.... For those people, I recommend a fisher price healthy care booster seat, like this one: Fisher-Price Precious Planet Healthy Care Booster. Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Value and a Quality Product... November 1, 2010

By delicateflower152 TOP 500 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

Fisher-Price has done it again with their Rainforest Deluxe High Chair! It is a quality product and provides an excellent value in terms of its longevity and utility.

My daughter purchased this chair after trying one by Graco and finding it unsuitable for her son. Unlike the Graco, the back of the Fisher-Price Rainforest Deluxe High Chair is not so high as to bother the child using the chair. The large tray is easy to put on and remove; the included toy is a nice extra which can be used to entertain your little one while you are preparing his/her meal. The colorful design on the chair appeals to little ones - yes, it is a bit bright, but then baby equipment usually is. The chair is easy to move. The plastic covering is easily cleanable; the piping appears to be a nylon, parachute-type material and is also easily cleanable. My grandson's first birthday cake was shaped like a bee and iced with black and bright yellow frosting. As one-year olds are prone to doing, he made an absolute mess of his cake. The black frosting wiped off the piping easily and did not stain it.

The two drawbacks to this chair are minor. If the weather is warm, the chair's plastic covering can cause your little one to sweat quite a bit. I had considered taking the pad off the chair and using it as a pattern to make a quilted covering to place over the plastic. However, the necessity of removing it and washing it every day was enough to discourage that idea. Instead, we took an inexpensive bath towel and created a pocket which fit over the chair's back. We then let the rest of the towel fall down the back, between the harness straps, and onto the seat. This kept our little one from getting hot and sweaty while eating and was easy to remove and wash.... The other issue I do have with the chair is that the wheels are not rubberized or coated with some type of material that will grip the floor. If you are using this chair on tile or hardwood, it can be scooted easily even when the wheels are locked. Because he sits at the table without the tray, our little one has discovered he can push off from the table and move his chair at will. Gripping, coated wheels would probably solve this problem.

Of course, you can pay hundreds of dollars more for a sleek, contemporary high chair - but why would you. Little ones are, by nature, not the tidiest diners on the planet and a sturdy, easily cleaning high chair will trump expensive but less practical high chairs any day. I definitely recommend the Fisher-Price Rainforest Deluxe High Chair. Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT high chair! December 30, 2010

By lil_delfin

I love this!

I received this for my son in 2007 as a baby shower gift, which I had registered for and it lasted through both my kids. Our 15 month old is still using it. The tray holder in the back for the pop out insert comes in handy and the toy still works great...we have owned this for 3 almost 4 years! I also LOVE how it reclines when the babies fell asleep. It is really easy to adjust (low to the ground so my toddler can color "next" to her brother on his table & higher so she can "sit" at the family table with us).

Only complaint is that the once easy to wipe cover is starting to crack- however the Fisher-Price website has a replacement we can order for about $20, but it has been on back order the last couple times we checked :-(
We used the whole rainforest collection with both our kids & all the products worked out well for our family as we have one boy and our little girl. It is neutral & fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unexpectedly LOVE this high chair October 5, 2011

By Cat Shattuck

Amazon Verified Purchase

In short, I love this high chair so much that on a day when I didn't even have time to shower, and my older twin had a cold and was clingy and miserable, I still sat down to give this chair a 5 star review.

I bought two of these for our 10-month-old twin girls because they were the right price, got good reviews, and offered basic functionality. I did not expect to ADORE them when we began using them.

I expected all of the following to be great, and it is:
- easy to wipe off/clean the seats including seat cover, frame, and straps
- easy to take the trays on and off and clean them
- easy to change the recline position, which I do frequently -- and while feeding two infants at once

I have not yet folded them down for storage as that would be a waste of time for us at this point.

I will also say that I did not expect to love the toy as much as I do. I thought, whatever, it comes with it, who cares. But it is so much fun. The girls really are fascinated by it and will sit and entertain themselves for maybe 10 minutes, which is just enough to buy me time to get their food ready.

I also initially wrinkled my nose at the colors/design. I prefer a more understated, modern look but we could not justify the $200-300 cost (times two) of high chairs like Stokke. But when these arrived, I will say they are very cheerful and not nearly as tacky as they look online, and they actually brighten up our kitchen nicely. Turns out I like the design!
