The booster seat is one of the best things I have ever bought! My 22 month old girl started getting really restless in her high chair and was feeling too far away from the dinner table, but now she's happy sitting at the actual table with the rest of us. the tray can be easily taken off and it also means your baby can sit right up against the table and have her plate and cutlery next to yours. We have also noticed that since we have bought it, she now eats more varied foods because they are all literally under her nose on our plates and now dinner time is all about us all eating the same thing and being more communicative.
