Chicco 360 Hook On Chair- Pics!

You can price match Albee babys price to diapers.com then get a referall code for $10 off. I was a first time customer so I got 10% off too. I also bought some overnight diapers and a car seat cover...

I really like it too! Goores.com had it half price on black friday, so it was only $35.. I was so tempted. I played with it in store, but it just seemed to small for A.

I used to be... Until my mom got an old school one... Then I saw how sturdy they were and how well they worked. Now that I have this one and see how much dang space it saves me... I definately want another one! That thing isn't going anywhere!

See, my brother had one when he was a toddler (so, like, 20-22 years ago? Wow.) One day he was wiggling and kicking around and it fell off on one side. It held him on but he would have fallen out if my dad hadn't been right over there. It like slid off sideways and hung there crooked. I think that's why I'm afraid of them. (He may have been over the weight limit, though, or it may have been misused. But it still scared me.)

So I tried my neighbor's 3.5 year old daughter in it. She is 30 lbs and 37 inches. I should have had her take her sweater off, cuz she looks bulkier with it. But she fit way better then I even expected! The seat ended right at her knees so she had a ton of leg support and leg room. Felt super sturdy with her in it.

Ignore the bright blue duck tape on my other high chair..

Now I'm wishing I would have bought at Goore's sale

Here's how A ate in it today. I thought it was cute how she was all leaned forward.. I had to take a pic..

ETA- I didn't have her buckled though, because I was sitting right next to her..

I want one of these so bad! It might be a month or 2 before I can get one, I will need to sell some stuff and save a little, depending on how much I can get for my high chair.
I wish I would have known about the Goores sale on Black Friday, I would have bought one!

 

[Cryssy Jane]

Alright... my high chairs are selling tomorrow which will give me enough to buy one, and if I can get my other CL stuff to sell then i'm good to go!

edit: actually I'm kinda wondering if I should keep one since these don't recline and I do get young ones often... hmmm

Is the seat vinyl or easily wipe able? Can you machine wash it?

The seat is cloth. You can wipe it off after meals, but it does have the potential to get icky (especially with really messy foods). It's not the shinier material on some of the Chicco products (I'm thinking of the brown material on my Adventure carseat)...it's rougher than that, so maybe a little harder to wipe down. And there are some crevices that tend to catch food, but I had that same problem with my bigger high chair so I'm used to it. The seat cover is removable, and I'm sure it could be hand washed. I don't have the manual handy, so I'm not sure what the official word is on machine washing though.

The tray fits in the dishwasher, so cleaning that is very easy.

I really want one of these really bad, but I've been thinking about it all day and I don't think I should. I'd have to sell my high chair and I don't think I could get more than $40 for it, then have to pay another $30 for this one.
I really love the hook on the table concept though. I was kind of looking at other hook on chairs, but I don't like them because they don't have a tray or swivel at all. I really wish I would have known I could have got one half off on Black Friday. Oh well. The high chair I have is pretty good too.

 

[Blondie87]

To me it feels like the material is the same as my keyfit car seat cover... My kiddos are very messy eaters... And they actually haven't even gotten anything on it yet.. Surprisingly!

If we didn't have an atique wooden highchair (dh's) then I would look into one of these. THey look really neat.

My Bro and SIL have the portable chicco one without the tray they really like. I wonder, are there tables it wouldn't be compatible with? Like it couldn't reach the bottom or there something under the table that would interfere with it? I also wonder if it would ever scratch the table finish off, like if I were taking it to someone elses house?

Thanks for the thread Blondie!
