    I am annoyed that it is not that easy to clean due to all the textiles and straps. Food also gets into all nooks and crannies of the plastic seat. Also the arm rests do not quite fit to our dining table so we need to use it with the tray all the time…

    Hey! I still find it very comfortable. As long as you get the settings correct for your body then it sits well and doesn’t dig in. We have used it often and find the rain cover useful too! Although can get a bit steamed up lol It has worn really well too- it still looks brand new!

    Great video! 💛 I can totally relate about the work hours. After coming back from maternity leave in September, I now work part time Mon-Weds and found it so tricky to begin with not to take a look at my workload on my days off. I don't look at the laptop until the following Monday and enjoy spending the time with my one year old!

    Hi Claire is the highchair a bit shaky or sturdy?

  • @clairemeiklejohn8077
    @clairemeiklejohn80772 жыл бұрын

    Hi! It’s super sturdy. When it’s clicked in place properly it feels like my energetic 1 year old can throw himself around in it while he’s strapped in with no worries that it may topple or break. It had quite a wide base which really helps 👍🏻

    The dark gray part is really easy to clean as it’s a wipeable material and the light gray comes off easily to be popped in the washing machine when needed. A quick clean after every use and it’s so easy to keep it looking good 👍🏻

    They might end up giving him an epi pen, just in case, with it being a nut allergy. Ella has one but as you know, she’s allergic to just about everything. They will probably test him on a bunch of different things when he goes to the allergist.
