Customer Reviews
Reasons we chose this highchair:
1. Folds up
2. Color/design
3. Extra seat cover
This purchase was a truly pleasant surprise among the many not so pleasant surprises when it comes to baby gear! The reasons we chose this highchair lived up to our expectations and beyond.
The Contempo models (we bought the Birkshire color which doesn't seem to be available but was brown like the Kasbah one) fold surprisingly flat. And they fold easily. I was worried folding would be a chore and therefore wouldn't happen, but it's easy enough that it happens after every use at our house. It is not a one-handed process, but it is quick and easy. In its folded position, this highchair would slide along side a fridge or into a pantry or broom closet. We keep ours in a small space next to our pantry cabinet.
We liked the colors and designs of the Contempo models because they weren't cutesy and bright and fit better into our kitchen and dining room and didn't stand out like the uninvited elephant in the room.
I loved the idea of having an extra seat cover when I read about the Contempo and I have found it very convenient to always have a clean one ready, since you KNOW they are gonna get messy. I was a little dismayed the first time I tried to switch the covers but after doing it a couple of times, it is plenty easy and convenient. I guess I should note that I strayed from the recommendations of only wiping these covers and spot cleaning and I have been throwing them in the washer on a cool/gentle cycle. They seem to come out great! I just hang them to dry and it doesn't seem to take long because of what they're made of. I also admit that I didn't really read the instructions for removing the seat cover the first time and so I probably could have had an easier time.
My ONE complaint about this chair is the tray insert....ours came with an insert that goes on the main tray which is smaller and easier to put in the dishwasher or sink than washing the main one, BUT my baby figured out the first time in the chair (at 10 months) that she could lift it off and throw it on the floor. I thought it would get forgotten and she would get used to it staying there but she didn't and after a month or so I gave up and put the insert away.
I haven't had any staining problems some people mentioned in reviews of the Graco chairs - the tray being easily stained by colored food - but I also wipe or rinse the tray immediately after a meal and don't let food sit on it at all.
As a side note, for cleaning baby items like this with a lot of spots where food and stuff get stuck and hidden, I have a steam cleaner with a little power nozzle that focuses the steam and it works great! Plus, the steam sanitizes surfaces - although I still use a germ spray for in between major cleaning.
One concern we've had as parents is the possibility of a baby pulling the folded chair over on top of themself. It is skinny in its folded position and could topple over if left in the open or unprotected on one side.
Overall, we are very happy with our Graco Contempo highchair!
We bought this high chair because it was top rated on Consumer Reports. We love most of its features. It really is easy to assemble. Everything is very easy to do one handed. The tray slides on and snaps into place very easily. It's easy to clean. I love the choice between 5-point and 3-point harnessing. Our 9-month old doesn't need the shoulder straps, so it's nice to be able to only strap her waist in.
My main complaint is the dishwasher-safe tray insert. I thought it was a great idea, and in theory it is - until you use it. Anytime my husband or I put our arms on the tray of the highchair (say as we're reaching across it to feed our daughter), it rips out our arm hair. I thought it was just a strong static shock at first until I noticed a bald patch.
Without the tray insert, it's the best highchair we've ever used. You just have to choose between having pain-filled, easy cleaning, or having to work a bit harder to get the tray clean.
