Great for babies and young toddlers but not older

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this high chair from the Stellar Product Testing Panel to try out with my 3 year old and it did not go so well for him. The lack of step to climb in or out is very much problematic for us. He's used to being very independent and typically doesn't use straps. In this case getting on the chair requires adult help help and him trying to hop off when he's done eating could be scary especially since he didn't like using the tray but wants to sit with the others at the table. While on his feet dangle very annoyingly and he is not very comfortable. My 5 year old of course wanted to try and he lasted about one minute before yielding back to the younger never looking back.
That being said, the quality is great and all the features make me regret not having it when my kids were babies. The tray is so much easier to remove and clean than anything else i had so far. Some relative with a newborn tried it and really loved the newborn recline and easy to adjust straps. baby seemed very cosy and happy to be in the heart of the action.
Overall it's a nice chair but design with younger kids in mind.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great chair for either of my two kiddos. I loved its adaptability and the modifications I can make to make my toddler comfortable. One of the best things about this chair is how easy it is to clean. And the design and color go with most home decor, if not all. I am very thankful to Stellar Reviews for the opportunity to try this high chair.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This high chair has been the BEST upgrade for our kitchen. We used to have a BIG 3-in-1 high chair that took up half of the kitchen. This 4moms high chair is PERFECT - it has a minimalist aesthetic, a small footprint, and is SO easy-to-use. We've used it with our 6 month old as she's started solids and it has been a super smooth transition. The one-hand tray is an amazing convenience, the seat is easy to get in and out of, and she's right up at the table with all of us for meals. I also know this chair will grow with her, and we'll never need anything else. Thank you to Stellar Product Testing Panel for allowing me to test this product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you stellar product testing panel for sending me this high chair to test out. This high chair was easy to take out of the box and instruction were easy to read. The only problem I had with installing it together was screwing in the legs. I would screw them in and think I had them tight, just to be lose. I had to put some arm muscle into it. Then it was good to go after that. I like that it is a neutral color, as I have a baby boy and a toddler girl. It’s a simple design which is good and makes it easy to clean. I like that it has a detachable tray that can go in the dishwasher, but it never got to dirty so I just hand washed it. The other nice thing about the tray is you can take it off the high chair with one hand. It was useful when I was holding baby in one hand and wanted to take the tray off to put him in the highchair. The tray also snapped in easy to the highchair. My five month old baby tried it out first and really enjoyed sitting with us at the dinner table while we ate and he played with toys on the tray. My two-year-old daughter also used it some to eat, but mostly used for a safe play for baby to play. I like that it’s not as wide and bulky as some other high chairs. We have a small dining room and it fits very well. It was nice that it has adjustable for height on the high chair. We have hard wood floor in our dining room and the high chair slid across the floor really easily. For the most part the straps were easy to use. It was just hard to get the middle buckle out. It would be stuck under the babies butt and would be nice if there was a clip or a magnet or something to keep the middle buckle staying upwards when getting baby into the seat. It was easy to adjust the straps when changing from baby siting in it to toddler sitting in it. The top straps and the side straps can detach from each other which makes it easy to take baby out of the high chair. A neat feature on it was you could recline the high chair back for an infant. We did not use it in reclined position much as my baby is getting older to sitting up and wanting to play but would be great for a newborn a month or 2 old. Overall I am very pleased with the high chair and will continue using it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were ready for a new high chair and were excited to get the 4moms connect high chair. We have a 16 month old and a 3 year old and both were happy to try out the high chair. A big unexpected plus was that while the high chair is sturdy and with a nice sized tray, the actually space it take up in the room is pretty minimal compared to every other high chair I have used. Our home is cozy so this is a great plus.
The high chair has a sleek neutral look and would fit in well with most any style. The tray and chair are very easy to wipe clean, and the tray has a top piece that can be easily washed. The chair has a dense grey rubber or foam that is comfortable for the child while also very easy to clean and durable. We also like how easy it is to take the tray off and put in on with one hand. The tray is guided into place with magnets and can be adjusted in how close it sits to the child with one hand as well.
The straps are easy to adjust and can be worn just as a lap belt or with both lap and shoulder straps. I have been very impressed with how versatile the chair is. Our three year old is able to sit comfortably in the seat and the seat can be used at the table without the tray as a tall chair. One thing that I really like about this is that you can adjust the hight of the chair to actually be pushed up to the table so your toddler can eat directly at the table without the tray. You can also tilt the chair back if you were having a smaller infant near the table.
The couple of things that would be nice, that the chair doesn't have, would be for the tray to pull out and have the option of staying attached so that I don't have to find a place to set it as I put the child in and out of the high chair. Also if the chair had a way to fold or come apart quickly to be stored when you want a little more space, but realistically our old high chair folded but we rarely put it away, and this chair is more compact, not taking up too much space in the room.
We were very excited to receive this high chair to try through the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are currently expecting our second kid, and were just starting to plan our registry when I was given the opportunity to test this high chair as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. We are planning to use it with the new baby primarily, but we were excited to set it up as soon as it arrived, and my three-year-old was very excited and eager to help test it out!
Set-up did require a screwdriver, but was straightforward and only took a few minutes. I was really impressed by how sturdy the whole thing is...The base is wide and surprisingly heavy, and the plastic seat is very thick and sturdy. I really like that the seat reclines for infants, and I am looking forward to being able to have the baby join us at the table (or nearby while I cook) before she sits up on her own.
So far, we have mostly tested this as a toddler seat. Removing the harness and crotch post was a little fiddly, but fortunately this is not something we'll need to do very frequently. My kid and I loved this as a toddler seat. He could climb into it himself and the seat did not seem tippy or wobbly at all. Adjusting the height is super-simple, and the movement is smooth and feels very high-quality.
I like that the tray is removable, but my son really liked using the tray (to pretend he's a baby!). I love that it's magnetic and very easy to click on and off the seat. It's also very easy to clean (as was the entire seat). The only issue we ran across was that a couple times it would click into place incompletely, somehow, and stay in place (so I thought it was fully attached) but would fall off if my son banged on it. Once this happened the second time, I got into the habit of jiggling it before I took my hand away to make sure it was attached all the way. It was an easy problem to solve, but is something to be aware of.
We had to put this seat away after a couple weeks because we want to use it with the new baby (for the reclining seat) when she arrives, and were worried my son would have trouble giving it up. The seat doesn't fold up at all, so I wouldn't recommend this seat for frequent storage or travelling. We just separated the seat and base (screwdriver required) to save a little space while we wait for baby.
My favorite thing about the 4moms connect high chair is the quality and sturdiness...I have no doubt that this will last well through the toddler stage for our little one, and still have plenty of life left in it for future nieces and nephews.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I was building my registry, I didn’t know much about high chairs and thought that they were all the same. I registered for the cheapest high chair I could find, that had features that were important to me like dishwasher safe, adjustable, easy to clean, and made from safe materials. The high chair I registered for sat in giant box because it came with a lot of tiny pieces, and could only be used once my baby was 6 months old… this was a problem because my baby started eating solids at 5 months and needed a high chair. Luckily, stellar panel sent me this high chair and opened my eyes to better options, and taught me that high chairs are not all the same!
What I love about this high chair: It was extremely easy to assemble and only came with a few pieces! I love that it has 3 stages and can accommodate a newborn! Most high chairs start at 6 months, but we loved having our 4 month old sit at the table with us while we ate, and then fed him solids at 5 months in this chair. This was a game changer! We have used stages 1 & 2 so far and found the adjustment incredibly easy. The high chair is good looking and easy to clean.
The only part of the high chair that I have trouble with (and this is just being picky) is the one hand tray attach. My husband can use it more smoothly than I can. It truly hasn’t been too big of an issue.
Overall, this is the best baby product we have and I highly recommend for any parent!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy Peasy! That’s the first words that come to mind when thinking about this high chair. Thanks to Stellar Product Testing Panel, I was able to see how updated and easy this high chair by 4Moms really is. I have tried a lot of 4Moms products. They are known to be really innovative and easy to use. This high chair is no exception! Initially, the set up may be a little cumbersome for some. Compared to other high chairs, I did feel this one was a bit different to set up, but worth it. Kids are messy and moms have their hands full. The BEST features of this high chair tackles both mess and ease. The first great feature is thanks to magnets. Some accessories stay put on the food tray (4Moms Compatible bowls which I had on hand), leaving less error for a big mess meaning less clean up time for you! Got your hands full? The tray snaps on with one hand! Now that’s a mamas helper that I can get behind! When it comes to style, the high chair is really nice looking. It can fit with all decor styles without sticking out and looking like another kiddo product. I tried this high chair with my infant and toddler. The fact that I can feel comfortable putting my 3 month old in a high chair is a huge improvement of the modern high chair. The seat reclines for a perfect fit and balance for a little one. The second stage is a perfect and comfortable fit for a toddler and keeps them at a great height!
