Stokke Tripp Trapp chairs

Post by scoobymcdoo » Tue Mar 13, 2007 4:36 pm

At M and Ms last week I know there were a few people wanting to know more about the Tripp Trapp high chair. I said I'd post a video to show how safe these chairs are...

Here is Sophie at 13 months old. A good sturdy chair, highly recommended.

PS Sorry- video has somehow turned on it's side!

We have 2 of em and they are the available for the same price of €149 from both Stockmann and Kodin Antilla but Antilla has a better choice of colors and variety in the clothes accessories.

If you want to use it for a baby, you need to buy the add-on that costs about 40 euros. Or at least that's what the salesperson who managed to sell me one said. :roll:

A word of caution to anyone buying one to keep a wily child in a
high chair: mine have all escaped from them just as easily as any
high chair. I felt bad for the day care, which went out and bought one
specifically for the reason of keeping the eldest in it :lol: Too bad
they'd never heard of the concept of telling to him to keep his
butt planted or else.

Ok, I had wondered what those were when, in November, I went to the shokki hinta sale where you get one item at Kodin Anttila for 40% off - and every other person in line had a box containing something called a stokke (I think it said Denmark?). I couldn't help but wonder what was so fantastic about a Stokke chair :) I was buying a MuumiTalo :)

This high chair looks really great...much nicer than the ugly plastic one I have . I have to admit when I first saw it I thought it looked nice but not very safe so I "googled" it and found that you can buy a 5 point harness to go with it....a must i think for any child under 18 months. Every child is different but my 20 month old would be out of it in about 2 seconds flat so the harness would still be a must ! :lol:

It doesn't take too long to get out of a 5-point harness either :lol:

I have had a tripp trapp for 3 yrs. ds 1 & 2 have never even tried to climb out of it, & have both used it till around 2 & half yrs old, but ds3 climbed out of it at 7 mths (that´s when he started walking (SCARY!) The quality of the cloth padded cover was really carp tho! It is a great chair for my toddlers to use to play my piano next to me!!!!!!!!!

Hi,

Last I checked, http://www.huuto.net/fi/ has a couple of parents selling their Tripp trapps. I suppose it should be ok buying a 2nd hand high chair?
