My baby is almost 8 mths now and ready for a high chair. Don't want to spend a bomb though, any good recommendations? Thx
 
I didn't know Ikea sells high chairs... didn't see it in the catalog. How good is the quality? How much do they cost? Thanks!
 
We bought from 0/3 Peg Perego which is rocker also . pretty good but our sone doesnt use it much.
 
We got a Mothercare one, which reclined and had 3 different heights. Honestly hardly used these features and it wasn't easy to clean. Food still managed to get stuck in crevices and started to attract an army of ants and roaches. I liked that you can hose the Ikea one in the shower.

Bought a booster seat when we moved to Hong Kong as a temporary measure till our high chair arrived in the shipment. Have to say we end up using this a lot more as it is so light and easy to clean and can even take it out when we go to restaurants etc. Says we can use it till age 4 or thereabouts so it's going to get a lot of use. So if your baby can sit up on his own perhaps you could buy one of these and pop a cushion at the back for a little extra comfort? This site has some good information on booster seats:

HANDS DOWN toys r us sells a safety first or first years booster for 6mth-4yrs. ... with ds#1 i went all out and shipped a graco deluxe from the US... reclines, height adjusted, etc ... big piece of CR**P!! this summer in Canada, my mom bought one of the above booster chairs and i was thrilled with it!! even bought one there and brought it back as checked luggage ... ONLY to find out they sell them here at TRUs!! (or very very similar). ... definitely worth the couple 100 i paid! and comes apart for easy packing later on ... NOT SO with the big bulky highchair!!
 
I like our big highchair- we have the Rainforest Fisher Price one that we got from Toys R US- it nwas just over a thousand dollars but it is very comfortable and we have used it constantly with our son since he was about 4.5 months old. It's a highchair that you could use and use for baby after baby.
