Leander high chair

a little bit off topic, but between the leander and the stokke, definitely get the leander. the triptrap is prone to tipping, which the curved base of the leander prevents. we have the leander and it is fine, but i do agree w/ those who say that it's not worth it. the adjustibility is a main selling point, but really, if you're anything like us, you will end up not using it. the same thing goes for the leander cot.

these are mistakes that first time parents usually make (along w/ the stokke explory stroller in hk - a big no no!). in the end, you will learn that baby goods are quite temporal, you will get probably a year or two use out of it. not worth breaking the bank for such extravagances.
 
I don't know if it is of any use, but we have a similar designed chair that grows with children from Bumps to Babes - was much cheaper than the Leander appears to be - think it was about HK$850 (cheaper than the plastic ones they were selling!) The design is not as beautiful but it's functional and blends in with our furniture, and lets our little one sit up at the table.

Our boys were using their Stokke Trip Trapps up until we moved to HK in June, and they are 12 and 9 years old!! Never, ever had a problem with tipping, EVER. Not sure where that comes from.

Like above, they knew these were their chairs at the table and it was nice. They were very comfortable, and they are big boys!
 
Thanks everyone for your input. We ended up getting the Stokke high chair for these reasons:

- its legs are not as long as the Leander which takes less space. (no issue with tipping back)
- we like the look better

We (my husband and I ) love it. The toddler sits well in the chair and it's a great piece of furniture. Our toddler can now climb up and down by herself and enjoys sitting at the table with us during meal time. And it's so easy to clean!

I highly recommend it. Having said that, our toddler loves the cheap Ikea chair too ;-)
