Looked at ikea one but doesn't fold and live in flat so need to be able to fold away and preferably easy to clean. Budget of up to £60

If it will work with your table then this phil and teds one is amazing and takes up virtually no space.

on chair booster i had this sort of thing for DS1. We had a tiny cottage but did have a table permanently up and the chair pushed in with it on.

What age is the high chair for?

Ikea do a cheap, easy to assemble one, you Can try it out in their cafe. Don't get an expensive one, it will get plastered in food and glitter and glue!

The IKEA one doesn't fold but the legs can be taken off really easily so just as easy as a folding one.

I found it a faff to get the legs off and then you have to store the seat bit and legs anyway.

I had a lovely height adjustable fisher price high chair for DS2 but as with many it had a moulded seat so didn't fold very small.

The height adjust thing meant you could feed from the sofa comfortably and he could sit with a family group and be a part of it. It also reclined so if he dropped off in his high chair I could rock him back and he could have a little nap.

With DD i had an ikea one permanently up at the table (i know you've said not an option) and a bumbo with tray when she was first having solids and then was good with first finger foods and snacks. It pushed under the coffee table when not in use.

I've always loved wooden high chairs and this one is lovely: www.cahootsy.com/category/feeding-nursing/john-lewis-wooden-baby-high-chair?categories%5B%5D=0&filter_type%5B%5D=everything&q=kitchen

55.99 so not really cheap but durable.

Was going to say ikea antilop but see it won't work. Pity as it's great.

We had that one MumChristy and I hated it as it was so heavy. Does collapse pretty easily though.

If you have no table or chairs do you need a highchair? Where do you eat? If at a breakfast bar type thing then a phil & teds one that attaches would be good. We have the older version of the lobster for out and about and it's great.

I'm in a small flat too and we have a mamas and papas Pixi. It looks nice, easy to clean and folds flat enough to stand behind the living room door.

We also need one for when we're looking after our DGS.

Would like one that folds away easily, not wooden, under £100.
Any ideas please !
