I've got a cheaper version of the Tripp Trapp - from the GLTC catalogue.

The big difference is, I think, that the horizontal bits can't go

backwards and forwards. I've since seen that TT's have lots of other

accessories too, like a cushion liner. Mine did come with a surrounding

wooden part for younger child but I ditched that fairly early on.

It's a much nicer piece of furniture than a plastic highchair but we

find we tend to trip over the legs that poke out at the back as they

stick out beyond the furthest back part of the chair. Like this side

view, if it turns out properly:

Would still recommend it though. I went to the Children's Seating

Centre (now re-named Back ?? something) when Steffi was about 8mo and

was amazed by their display of oversized furniture built so adults could

appreciate the problems children face living in an adult-sized world.

Also all the staff used those ball chairs when seated at their

desks/workstations. I really, really want a fitball for the time I

spend at the pooter. It's supposed to tone your abs and back muscles

without any conscious effort whatsoever!

They also had a baby carrier similar to the Wilkinet on display there

but at the time I was completely addicted to my Baby Bjorn.

I now sit on my birth ball all the time at the pooter... its so much

more comfy than a chair... (its aproper physio ball, so quite sizable

and very strong)
