Combi Hero Highchair - - Mandarin

"While there are many things I like about this item the deal breaker for me is that the seat cover is literally falling apart. I don't put it in the washing machine, just wipe it down but the whole cover is in disrepair and looks like its been through the shredder."

"I love this chair... It works great in the Kitchen but the best thing is that the chair can be removed from the 'hi' so you can place the chair anywhere.. On the floor, in a resturant anywhere. I love how light the chair is.. and how it folds up when you dont need it. It doesn't fold flat but its enough so that it isn't in the way. I also like that the chair can recline a little for a sleepy baby. It has a removable tray and also a removable plate that are both very helpful.. And the pop out cup holder.. GREAT! It doesnt hurt that this chair is stylish too:):) The only bad thing I have to say about this.. Is that the hi-chair wobbles a little. Nothing to scare me or worry me but it has a little wobble.."

"We love this high chair. Easy to clean, multi-use for when she's older, and totally cute. The one thing I don't like is the buckle is hard to unsnap and I have snapped my fingers in in twice! Love the cup holder off to the side and the ease of transporting for when we go to grandmas!"

"I bought this high chair a little over a year ago, right before my son was 12 months old. I had searched around and decided that despite some of the reviews I had read, that this was the seat for us. I had owned many other Combi items and loved them! Boy was I wrong, I should have listened to the other reviews...

Don't get me wrong, we like the chair for some reasons, it was easy to assemble, the adjustable height was good, I like the removeable "plate" on the tray, it cleans up ok.. however, this chair does have it's flaws.

First, I do not receommend trying to ue this seat as a booster on top of a regular chair unless the chair has a wide long seat that has no arms or back, our regular kitchen chairs are too narrow (and they are also less than a year old!) and the seat actuall hung off on all sides. They are typical shaker style chairs!! Needless to say it means that we don't take it with us anywhere, so the whole point of it being removable from the legs is useless.

Second, the tray does not go close enough to the child. My son is presently 34 inches tall and weighs in at 30lbs.. not a slim child by any means, but the tray is sooo far from him that he ends up dropping his food in his lap constantly unless we actually feed him, trust me... at 18 months old, he doesn't always like us too!

Third problem for us anyway, the seat cover is falling apart. I have never put it in the washing machine as the instructions stated we could, only spot cleaned with non abrasive cleaners, I usually use simple green. The cover is actually ripping apart at seams, shredding in the middle of the seat back, and has pulls all over the place that are also starting to shred! I tried to contact Combi, they no longer accept emails, and I sat on hold "waiting" for a representative for almost 45 minutes with no response. I got fed up, and hung up!

Fourth problem... the seat belt is tough!! I pinched my own fingers in it numerous times before I finally said forget it, and stopped using it. The blood blisters I kept getting were making things difficult for me! Now when I do actually place him in this seat, I usually have to sit right with him to make sure he doesn't wiggle out of the seat.

All in all, unless they have changed fabrics, which it doesn't look like they have, made the tray slide in closer and fixed the belts... I would certainly say to find a better chair!"

"Overall this chair is fairly nice. However the deal breaker for me is the seatbelt buckle. It is so difficult to snap you really have to push hard, then because of the way you have hold it, you either have to move your hand away lightning quick or end up with blood blister on your fingers and thumb. My husband and I both have lots of trouble with it, we ended up not strapping him in at all (which isn't safe) for fear of what would happen if a little finger was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Needless to say I am sending it back. I called Combi and voiced my concern, they said they are aware of the problem, but not doing anything about it at the present time. :(. I will say everything else about the chair is great, it looks very nice, height adjustment is nice and easy, one hand tray release is great. I'm very sad that this one problem just ruins it for us :(..."

"The things I don't like about this chair are firstly how you have to move it when it's folded out. There are only wheels on the front two legs, so when you move it you basically have pick it up and roll it. Which of course is close to impossible if your child is already sitting in it. Secondly, for me at least, the harness snap is very hard for me to do and undo. I understand that the child shouldn't be able to undo it, but it's very inconvenient when I have to stand there for 5 minutes trying to undo it. Those are the two things I don't like about it. However, it is very easy to clean, which is great because my daughter makes HUGE messes. I also love the slide out cup holder. It keeps the cup somewhat away from the child so it's not just sitting on the tray for them to play with. Yet it is still in reach if they want it. My daughter doesn't grab for it unless she wants it, and only plays with the food on her tray. So that's helpful. All-in-all, I like it okay. I also like that I'm going to be able to use it for other things in the future. I guess every product can't be perfect :)"

"This is a super stylish and modern highchair that can be used from when the baby is learning to sit up all the way on up. We love that the chair detaches and can attach to a regular chair--perfect for bringing over to people's houses or a restaurant. The wheels work fine for us (no carpet) and in the four months we've used it we have never had a problem with wobbling. The only reason that it isn't 5 star perfect is because, as other have mentioned, the buckle is hardcore! My husband and I have both gotten blood blisters a few times."

"I love this high chair, it's great a nd perfect for little girl! I love how washable it is and the little plate that came with it is great too. I think that it was a good idea to make it where it changes into a booster seat so we dont have to go out and buy another one when she gets older, also the cup holder on the outside is good because my little one likes to throw her sippy cup everywhere! I tell all my friends about this high chair!"

"I bought this high chair in the wasabi color about 8 months ago. It was slightly wobbly, but I didn't think too much of it. Until now. My daughter is older, and heavier. When she moves around I'm scared the high chair is going to tip over. Also, because of washing the pad that goes over the chair, the plastic coating on it has started to peel off. This isn't good for children who love to put random things in their mouths. I am now searching for a new high chair because I feel as though this one just isn't safe."

"I love the colors and the fact that it can be used longer than other highchairs. However, I don't like that the legs are so wobbly. The legs are in the back of the closet never to be used again... The highchair will be used on top of the table or counter. I really like this product but if you buy be prepared to use it without the legs."
