Stokke Tripp Trapp Baby Set, Blue

I unfortunately, purchased this product without reading any of the negative reviews. If I had read about all the problems people were having getting their baby in and out of the baby seat, I would have probably gone with another high chair. I was very excited when the Stokke box came in the mail and immediately (and quickly) put the chair together, glimpsing ever so quickly over the instruction manual. The next morning, when trying out the chair with my daughter actually in it, I found that I couldn't easily get her in or out of the chair. I was contorting her legs into strange angles to jam her body into the baby set seat. Getting her out of the chair was a challenge and it didn't come without tears and a distraught mom. Now, I couldn't figure out WHY in the world I was having such difficulty and was thinking my 7 month old, 20 lb baby was too big for the baby set until I read online that the seat was suitable for babies 6 months to 3 years old. I then started my search online...Read more

Okay, I was hesitant to buy this for our Tripp Trapp, but as we wanted to use it with our then-5 month old, we didn't have any choices as the old baby rail is discontinued and doesn't fit with the new model Tripp Trapps anyway.

We took the plunge. I have no idea what all the problems described in other reviews are about, because this set works great for us. We have no problems putting our 7 1/2 month old into this chair and baby rail set. We don't have any cushions installed because he makes a mess when he eats and would just get the cushions all dirty. But, we got a good deal and free cushions with the set so I just put them away for later. We don't usually use the seat belt presently because he likes sitting in the chair and doesn't try to escape. He just sits on top of the seat belt for now.

My son is about 27 inches tall and weighs at least 19 pounds. He's a very long and lean little guy. He sits up very well on his own now, but even before he was sitting...Read more

It intrigues me that the prior posters comment on how this seat hurts their babies when they "force" them out of the chair...hello people...all you have to do is pinch the plastic tab of the babyset where it comes through the bottom of the chair seat and then the baby set lifts, thereby expanding the leg holes, and baby can easily be taken out! It did take me a couple of times to realize this but hopefully my comment here will aid a few others; preventing some awkward chair exits and a few tears.

Other than the initial learning curve associated with the above comment, this seat works as it should and keeps our little guys safely seated for family dining. They can both easily reach the table, fingerfoods and cups. We have twins of very different body types (Baby A: 100+% height, 70+% weight; Baby B: 40% height, 20% weight) and both boys have done very well in their seats from about 5 months on (we're almost at one year now). I can easily see them using the baby set up to...Read more
