Suspended chairs
Great option if your kitchen is very crowded and there is nowhere to “turn around”. These chairs are attached directly to the dining table. The maximum weight that can withstand the suspended chair -15 kg. It is quite compact, easily attached and develops, so ideal for travel. The only minute not all countertops can withstand such fasteners (for example, glass).
Bosterers
These are chairs that are attached by spacers and belts to the usual (“adult”) stool. Like suspended, busters are designed for a child weighing up to 15 kg. You can use booster from the moment the child has learned to sit (from 6-8 months). The advantages of such chairs: they are light, equipped with seat belts, which allows you to transfer the child without taking him out of the chair, compact. Cons: it is necessary to check the security of the child in the booger, inspect the mounts and belts, monitor the stability of the “main”, adult stool.

High chairs for feeding.
The most common type of children’s chairs. The basic model of any high charm includes: a high chair, a folding stanchi-book, a plastic seat, seat belts, a removable plastic tray and a leg stand. Covers for seats are removable, they are easy to remove and wash if necessary. The chair and tray are adjustable in height, almost all modern models have several positions of the seat. This allows you to put a child who does not know how to sit on your own. In the “reclining” position you can feed a child or do household chores in the kitchen. Each manufacturer of children’s chairs offers its additional features in functionality – these can be wheels with fixers (brakes), a basket for toys, additional trays for games and much more. High chairs are stable and almost completely safe. The disadvantages include bulky and heavy weight of such chairs.

Transformer chairs
The type of transformation of such chairs will depend on a specific model. They can turn into a high chair for feeding, and a chair with a drawing desk, and even in an adult “bar” chair. Such chairs are intended for children from 6 months to 5-6 years old.
Having decided on the look of a chair, refer to the film from which it is made. Most often it is plastic, but you can find environmentally friendly models- completely made of wood, or with wooden inserts (countertop/ foot stand). The feeding process will be the most comfortable for you and your baby, if the chair has such functions as a removable trace adjustable in height, foot footing, adjusting the seat, availability of wheels, soft seat. The coloring of the chair remains with the choice of parents. Bright and colorful colors will certainly please the baby, but from the point of view of practicality, it is better to choose dark colors (traces of spots from food will not be so noticeable).
Whatever the model of the chair you choose, remember, the main condition is the comfort and safety of the baby. Never leave the child alone, unattended an adult, fix it with seat belts and use locking brakes.
