But crumbs and stuff DO get caught in the swivel thing and I need to take a toothpick to it every few weeks. And I do have an exceptionally messy eater. So my vote is that it serves a specific purpose but it could be better.

I'm just getting sick of it now. Mrs.Tal dropped off her high-backed but foam(ish) high chair this afternoon so I'm going to try that first and see if a softer back might solve the problem (if not the head banging, than the amount to which it drives me nuts... lol) skipra on "Best low-back high chair?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-low-back-high-chair#post-2143658 Tue, 14 Apr 2015 13:33:56 +0000 skipra 2143658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Both of our guys love the one that @Foodnerd81: posted. But it is kind of a pain to clean and it doesn't fit on all tables. lamariniere on "Best low-back high chair?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-low-back-high-chair#post-2143649 Tue, 14 Apr 2015 13:28:22 +0000 lamariniere 2143649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We have a Stokke Tripp Trapp, it's pricey, but it can be used for years. If not, the Ikea Antilop is very cheap with a low back.

I wouldn't want to spend a ton on a new highchair for a problem that will probably stop in a week or two.

She is 20 months and I expect she will stay in it until at least 2. The weight limit is 35 lbs. However it is annoying to clean. Not awful- it just goes in the washing machine, but wiping it down would be a lot easier. I have this one because I wanted a tray and we have it on our kitchen island.

We realized he just wanted attention, so we ignored him when he did it, and he eventually stopped because he wasn't getting a reaction!

If it's not do you think that a padded chair might help the problem? We have the phil and ted poppy if you wanted to borrow it to try out.

She banged her head more when she was smaller and could hit the seat back, but now that she's older she doesn't do that. Mae on "Best low-back high chair?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-low-back-high-chair#post-2143269 Tue, 14 Apr 2015 10:03:19 +0000 Mae 2143269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @avivoca: When that is hooked to a chair, can't his head hit the chair back though? Or does it sit too far forward? avivoca on "Best low-back high chair?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-low-back-high-chair#post-2143266 Tue, 14 Apr 2015 10:02:13 +0000 avivoca 2143266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We have this one: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Price-Deluxe-Quick-Clean-Portable-Booster/dp/B00B9ZRZH6/ref=sr_1_10?s=baby-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1429023655&sr=1-10&keywords=fisher+price+booster+seat" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Price-Deluxe-Quick-Clean-Portable-Booster/dp/B00B9ZRZH6/ref=sr_1_10?s=baby-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1429023655&sr=1-10&keywords=fisher+price+booster+seat</a>. I like that it hooks to our dining chairs and I can hose it off if it gets especially nasty. ETA: It's $27 and H can't scootch our chairs back while sitting yet.

It doesn't seem to hurt her, but she does it so hard she scoots the chair back! I think it is a combination of her not being that into solids (STILL) and being annoyed when DH and I are talking and not paying attention to her 100% of the time at dinner. Nevertheless I would rather make her stick it out at dinner and learn that we eat dinner together than spend then entire dinner fussing over whether she is banging her head/trying to talk over it. SO. I want a high chair she can't bang her head on. Seems like there are a few that are similar to restaurant style, if a bit more fancy, that are ridiculously priced (like 200+) or the claw-type ones that are appealing but I worry my LO is too big for (almost a year old) and also people say they are impossible to clean for self-feeders. Do you know of a low-backed high chair that you love? That is okay for toddlers? That isn't horrible to clean? That maybe isn't $200? thanks :)
