Easy to Clean and minimalistic
on October 31, 2021
Posted by: BaltiMom
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to receive the 4moms Connect high chair to review from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. We tried it out with our 3 and 1 year olds, and our 5 yo tried it out for fun as well.
Pros:
*Tray is easy to remove and put on (though I did have to explain the mechanism to some guests of ours)
*Tray and seat are very easy to clean. (We also love the removable liner.)
*Minimalistic style helps it blend in anywhere.

*Minimalistic style helps it blend in anywhere.
Cons:
*It looks like the "step" feature was removed. This makes it more difficult to use at different ages and stages, as kids cannot as easily climb in. It also means there's no footrest, which isn't ergonomically recommended. I noticed the lack mostly by my bigger kids. The 1 year old seemed pretty comfortable.
*This high chair doesn't fold, which means it will be difficult to store when we no longer need it for our youngest. This also detracts from the "minimalistic" style.

Overall, I like the high chair, and will continue to use it for its functionality, but I think the lack of footrest/step will make it harder to use for older kids, and the inability to fold might not make it practical for some.

Long Term Utility
on October 30, 2021
Posted by: Savannah10
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this 4moms high chair for my two year old and my four year old. The ability to easily remove the crotch post and harness straps also made deep cleaning easier as well, as food tends to collect around and on them after a while. Set up was pretty straightforward, I was able to do it by myself with just a screwdriver. I really appreciated the addition of the reclining seat and height adjustment. This makes the high chair usable for a much longer period, which makes it a much better value in my opinion. It is also easy to clean, I’m not a fan of hard to remove pads that need to go through the wash, and the removable foam seat pad adds comfort that can be wiped down really quickly.
I am ambivalent towards the one handed tray, as I don’t usually remove high chair trays on a regular basis and instead prefer to slip child in and out with it on. That being said the tray liner was nice for cleaning up in the sink as opposed to trying to spray down a bulky one piece tray.
Overall I think the 4moms high chair is a great option for those who like it’s more modern and clean styling. It doesn’t have as many bells and whistles as some other chairs, but can be adjusted to seat a wider age range unlike more simplistic ones that often require additional accessories. The foot print is on the smaller side as well so it replaces a standard dining chair fairly easily. It’s a great option for someone looking for a chair with longer utility but not a ton of extra pieces to work around. Thank you Stellar Product Testing Panel for letting me try this chair out in return for my honest feedback.

Sleek and functional for many stages
on October 30, 2021
Posted by: Jess
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this high chair from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I had researched high chairs significantly, and i was excited to the updated 4moms Connect high chair. It is sleek, easy to use, and easy to clean. I was able to use the chair both in the reclined infant mode as well as the vertical stage two with tray with my five month old.
The company seems to have incorporated a lot of the user feedback from the previous version and made the tray attachment mechanism more secure. As a mom of a very kick-prone kiddo, the two part squeeze is secure and really easy to operate with one hand and feels less possible to kick off. The tray is lightweight (maybe more so now that they removed the surface magnets?) and works for both left and right one-handed operation—helpful depending on which hip you have the kiddo on. I also appreciated the tray’s adjustable depth feature so food is less likely to slid in between the tray and bib. The liner and all surfaces are smooth with little texture so suction plates attach well, and the few crevices makes wiping up really simple. My dishwasher top shelf doesn’t have the height to vertically accommodate the removable plastic liner, but it’s so easy to sponge clean I don’t really miss that feature.
The chair has a big footprint, but no more than many others on the market. And, it feels very stable and unable to tip. It slides perfectly under my kitchen waterfall counter height, and the height adjustment is easy to use and quickly get the height from counter to table height. My kiddo really liked sliding up to the table to join breakfast at table height instead of in our laps.
The recline setting is nice for allowing the kiddo to give themselves their bottle or to bottle feed away from your lap. I also use it to keep her chill while i trim her little dagger fingernails. Combo feeding and manicure chair!
My two suggestions for improvement are the chair’s safety clasp and lack of footrest. The clasp has multiple grooves that have to align perfectly and that can be tough while accommodating a squirmy kiddo. I would love to see a magnetic clasp on this chair like I have used on mid-range strollers. And, when we get to toddler stage and remove the center post, I am probably going to add a strap around the base to serve as a footrest in order to keep hip development on track. It there was a way to incorporate a footrest/later attachment, that would be great.
This feels like a quality product that I will be able to use for many years and would last through multiple kiddos. It goes with our contemporary decor well, and all parts are easy to clean with a sponge/wet cloth. The one-handed tray is fantastic and makes mealtime with a small kiddo easier.

Really nice high chair
on October 30, 2021
Posted by: alamoni0
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 4moms connect high chair is a great high chair! I have three children, and my youngest is 4 months old. My favorite feature of this high chair is that you can use it with an infant and bring an infant to the family dinner table. Most high chairs do not offer this feature! It is also a great fabric that would be easy to clean, and will grow with baby. The tray is really easy to remove and attach, and comes with a great cover that can clip off for easy cleaning. I also love that there is no fabric with this high chair which would make it more difficult for cleaning. Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this high chair!

So good
on October 30, 2021
Posted by: Lhook24
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve never purchased a stand alone high chair for either of my kids, we always went with the ones that strapped to a chair, just to save space mostly. But this high chair has changed my mind completely! My son is 2 with autism and will probably need to be in a high chair of some sort for a while longer. He LOVES his new high chair and wants to sit in it even when he’s not eating. We are using it on the third stage so he sits lower to the ground, he can almost get himself up all by himself. BUT, the absolute best feature of this chair is the one handed release. No more fighting with the try to get it connected or take it off, it’s so simple, almost too simple. When we have guests over that are trying to help with my son I always have to explain how to use it just because we are all so used to fighting with trays that are so finicky!

Innovative idea
on October 30, 2021
Posted by: Jmd123
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked the look of this product, and the versatility of it. I could use it for my 1 year old and my 4 year old! I used it as a high chair with the tray for my younger one, and lowered it to be a booster seat for my older one. The chair is spacious and I like that it can be reclined for a very young baby so they can join the dinner setting. My one negative feedback is there is no footrest for a baby/toddler, which is very important in them learning to eat solids. It’s the main reason I wouldn’t buy this high chair for my family (I received this one to try as part of the stellar product testing panel). The removable insert between the legs was nice too and helped it convert to a true booster seat. Overall, my favorite aspects are the ability to cover a variety of age groups and it’s compact size. The tray is also nice and spacious, with a removable top part for easy washing.

Easy to Clean
on October 30, 2021

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 4Moms connect high chair is so easy to clean! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this high chair. I love baby products that grow with my baby through many stages, and this high chair does just that! The height is easy to adjust, the tray is easy to put on and take off, and the straps are easy to remove and wash. I like how there is no fabric padding, so I can easily wipe down the seat after meals instead of having to do laundry. The straps are machine washable, so after several uses they are easy to put in with the laundry and reattach to the chair. I’m currently using it to feed my 8 month old and look forward to using it as a booster when he is older.

Stylish and easy to clean but not user friendly
on October 30, 2021
Posted by: mrey
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 4moms connect high chair with its minimal design is both stylish and easy to clean. That's about where the positives stop for me. The high chair advertises 3 different stages for feeding positions. While I cannot speak to its use in babies and older toddlers, I was disappointed with the stage 2 position for my 2.5 year old. Even in its most upright position, the "bucket-y" seat was still too reclined for my toddler to sit comfortably for mealtimes and, with no footrest, there nothing was nothing to help stabilize him. The one handed tray attach feature works well, but even when it is pulled out to its furthest position, the space between the tray and the seat is still too narrow for me to easily slide my toddler into the high chair (like we are able to do in our current high chair of choice) and we have to remove the tray every time we get in and out of the seat. While this is not technically a negative as this is not an advertised feature of this high chair, for a higher-end high chair option I wish adjustable height was available. Our current high chair (within the same price range) can adjust from table height to counter height (and several heights in between) which is ideal for my family as we eat primarily at our counter. I was given this high chair to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
