IKEA antilop vs Bjorn appetite?

[flavourflave]

Hi guys! Which one would you recommend?

Antilop is very good - v easy to clean and v transportable if you're going for a weekend away or something (we've even taken it on foot to dinner parties - very quick to assemble again at other end).

I have tripped over it a couple of times but I've now positioned it so I don't trip over it. Even if you do trip over it, it is virtually impossible to knock over - very well-designed and very stable.

I do find the tray hard to remove - tend to clean in situ. But I am puny.

Antilop here (how can you argue with that price and cleanability?) We used a cushion with DS1 for a few weeks and it was fine. DS2 wasn't really able to sit up by himself when he was 6 months (he'd flop forward) so for the first few week we actually sat him on our knees for his first tastes until he could sit up properly, then he went into chair without the cushion (he also never leaned back).

We used antilop with DS1 until he was about 2 (and he's a big lad, 98th centile for height) then we put him in a booster seat (cheapo one for about 12 quid) for about a year or so (he really liked it, so was loathe to move onto a normal chair!) before he used one of our kitchen chairs.

Bottom line is if the antilop doesn't work out for you, you've only spent 15 quid...

The inflatable is not a con for parents actually (not sure who put that)

my dd couldn't sit unaided when going onto weaning so the inflatable was a godsend, we take the inflatable out to pubs if we go for a meal as she still isn't massively steady.
