Product Description
The Tripp Trapp is a sturdy children's chair that grows with your child. It lifts them up so they can be included in activities around the table. Children love interacting with the family. In today's hectic lifestyle, it is more important than ever to encourage these special moments of togetherness. The dining table is more than a place for mealtimes. It's for playing, homework or simply just talking, enjoying quality time together. A child sitting at the same heig... More >>

And I say FURNITURE, because it truly is that versus a temporary piece of plastic taking up room in your kitchen! We just love our Tripp Trapp and are glad that we splurged. Actually, we feel it was more of an investment, considering our daughter (currently 16 months) will be able to use this all the way through her childhood – no booster seats scratching up our dining room furniture!
Our daughter loves eating right at the table with us and we feel that it was a main reason for her learning table manners earlier than most. She is already a rather neat eater and has been using a fork since before her 1st Birthday.
We found the Tripp Trapp easy to put together and very sturdy. The seat and foot rest are easy to move up and down as our daughter grows. We also bought the baby rail and two seat cushion sets. All are easy to put on and take off and the cushions wash and wear well!
We are VERY PLEASED with this chair – very much worth the money!

i took a chance and splurged on this item and we are very happy with it. my daughter is 8 months – so we’ve been using it for 2. she seems very comfy in it (we got the baby rail which seems to be essential, but not the cushion). we removed one of the table chairs and her tripp trapp goes right up to the table. she loves being at the table with us when she eats and i think in the long run it will her with table manners, feeling involved, etc. it is a very sturdy piece made of solid wood and there are no nooks/crannies where food gets stuck. i’m sure we’ll end up buying one for each of our children when they are born as these chairs seems like they will last a lifetime. oh, and its pretty easy to put together although we did have a problem at first b/c one of hte screws wouldn’t go into the hole all the way. i called stokke and they said they were surprised, never heard of that before and sent a new back piece out in a day or two which worked perfectly. all in all i would definately recommend splurging on this seat if you can rather than having a bulky, bright colored plastic thing that your baby will probaly only use for 6 or so months.
Update Nov 2009 (almost 2 years later):
Still really like this chair, but seriously cannot believe how much this has gone up in price in 2 years. ridiculous! when i purhcased it was standard $200 + $30 for the bucket seat. Anyways, i’m updating review becuase both of my kids have been able to lift their legs up on the table and kick off the table. my daughter flew back 2x, once hitting her head on hardwood flooring. 2nd time (and also for my son), we learned to put the chair in front of a wall so if they kick off they hit the wall very close to them and cant flip backwards. i called customer service and they said they’ve never heard of this beofre becuase they are designed to NOT flip back. well, i don’t believe that…my daughter is SO cautious and not one to climb on antying or do anything very risky. again, i really like the chair, easy to clean and looks great, but just be aware of our problem so your little ones dont bang their heads.
