Highchair recommendation please - like the Tripp Trapp, but...

We don't often all eat at the table together as dh doesn't get home from work until 6.30-7pm most evenings and that's too late for the girls. So, although I like the look of the Tripp Trapp I really need something with a tray (removeable so that we can sometimes all eat at the table together) so that I can feed dd2 in the kitchen with dd1 (who eats tea at the "island"/breakfast bar).
Have just found this Kuster one which looks good. Anyone got this, or got any opinions on it? Or other recommendations please?

I use a Tripp Trapp, with a tray. I borrowed one off a friend, but I know you can get Tripp Trapp trays on ebay.

The tray I have comes on and off quite easily. Not very easy to clean, and not as pretty as the Tripp Trapp. Very practical, though, I'll probably stop using it soon, as DS2 is approaching one.

If you get a booster you could strap it on to a barchair - so they could sit together

Newbie, sorry to crash post ... but I love my highchair, it's a M & P Bon Appetit and has a really easily removable tray and is well padded and lovely. i want to climb in it and eat my tea there rather than on our hard stools ...

We have the East Coast one like Feffi. If only the tray was easier to take on and off it would be perfect, but I am very pleased with it. Definitely a good move to have a tray, IMO. You can just push the chair up to the table anyway (ours just about slots under the table if you want the child to eat from the table, IYSWIM).

I've got the Kuster - it is fabby. We've not tried it w/o the tray yet though. Looks great, v easy to clean. Only down side is that the tray is flat so it's very easy for DS to 'sweep' stuff off it

Tripp Trapp just makes me think of trolls
