Lovely highchair but possible design error...., 14 Feb. 2014

When I saw this high chair, it was exactly what I was looking for. Classic dark wood. It is a lovely highchair and looked good quality but quite surprised at how quickly the wood fades away after constant wiping down. Also now very shocked to discover my 9 month old can now climb out of a seating position until he is standing up which now means i can't take my eyes off him for a second. It does have hooks attached to fit reins but these are not included which I think they should be because probably all babies will end up standing up in it which is incredibly dangerous. So if you are thinking of buying this highchair, also buy some reins. Other than that it is very stylish and looks great at your table. I don't use the padded cushions because you will have to wash them everyday!

Ok for the money but it could be better, 27 Jan. 2014

We couldn't justify the expense of the "default option" in this category with the necessary (costly) extras (tray, baby seat etc.).

As this comes with the tray, cushion (of sorts) and a strap which stops baby falling "through" the seat - then this chair seems good value.

The quality of the construction materials seems good, and it screws together well - initial impressions were great - it was just disappointing that it wobbles a little once assembled (without baby sitting in it).

It doesn't wobble with baby sitting in it, so we have decided to keep it, rather than having to disassemble it again to send it back.

If it didn't wobble, they replaced the "light coloured wipeable fabric cushion" with something more wipeable and less cloth like, gave it a more chip resistant paint job (it has chipped a little bit already), it came in a range of different colours, with a harness...

- then this could be a really...

OK but some niggles., 17 Nov. 2013

The Cosatto Pretzel is a lovely looking bit of kit. It goes together in about 15 mins from unboxing, and is quite flexible in how you want to use it. The footrest and seat are adjustable, the tray folds back if you want to push it up to a table, and the support bar round the front to hold younger kids and the tray in is fairly easily removable.

It doesn't come with a harness, but there are rings to attach one if you so wish. I do feel that a harness should come as standard though, especially as this is not a cheap high chair. To be honest however, with the front bar, you probably won't need one, as the bar is quite a tight fit. In fact, if your kid is a bit chubby like my little lad, it may be even too tight without dropping the seat.

However, there are a few other issues with the chair in general. The tray is a bit flimsy for a wooden model compared to others, and our support bar has developed a crack after less than a full month of use. It's not a deal...
