Graco Swift Fold LX Highchair, Basin

Do not be afraid to buy this chair! It is ready to use out of the box. It is a full-size chair with a full-size tray. As with almost every other Graco chair, the liner comes off the main tray for easy cleaning. The padded seat cover doesn’t come off, but it is upholstered in a soft, leather-like vinyl that will be easily cleaned with a damp cloth and some mild detergent. You can access the seat back easily to adjust strap placement as your baby grows by simply popping loose a couple of snaps and lifting the seat cover over the hard chair back. There are small padded cloth “slips” to cover the shoulder straps at baby’s neck area to reduce any possible irritation. These come off easily and can be washed, as can the cloth padded back insert for smaller babies. This is truly a one-hand fold chair. I am a mechanically challenged granny and it is no problem to set this chair up or take it down. It is not a light weight, though, so it is sturdy AND steady. It folds easily with or without the tray. Since it’s new, I can’t really assess durability, but I gave it 5 stars because it is Graco and I have never had a problem with their products or the company standing behind its product.

Update after three years of hard use: We still love this chair! It has been through three kids, from baby until they're about three. (By that time, they're sitting at their little table for meals.) We expected to use it for play activities, but we use their little table for those projects. We only use this chair for meals.1) The straps can be a pain as they can't be removed to clean, but not all that much trouble. I get a clean old washcloth, wet with hot soapy water, put an old towel under the strap, and just scrub. We always use bibs when the kids are in the chair, so the straps don't really seem to get soiled. (By the time they are about 12 months, I stop using the straps, as I never leave them unattended..) 2) The kids don't seem to care at all about the foot rest. 3) I find that I seldom take the tray completely off the chair. I slide it away from the child a bit, then I just lift the child out. So it doesn't matter to me that the "post" on the bottom of the tray keeps the tray from sitting flat on a table. 4) I take my Dyson stick vac to the chair every afternoon, then I wipe it down with a damp cloth, then dry it with an old towel. I fold it up and put it away until the next day.As I said, I'm a nanny, and I've had three very different kids use this chair, and I haven't had a bit of trouble with it. I did put sticky-backed felt tabs on the bottom of all four feet, so it doesn't mar my hardwood floor.Original Review: We love this chair! I live in a small condo, and I watch an adorable baby several days a week. I needed a chair that was sturdy and comfortable, but would fold compactly for storage when he isn't here. I looked at dozens of folding high chairs and read all the reviews and -- thanks to the great feedback from Amazon customers -- I chose this one. Not only does it easily fold up, it doesn't even take up much space when it is in use. No tripping over wide legs, yet it is very stable. Another consideration for me was a large tray. We will use this chair for fun activities, and I wanted a tray large enough to do things like sort items by color and shape, or learn animals and their sounds. We have had the chair for about a month, and we are delighted with it. And it's pretty!

We purchased this high chair for our 5th child. Originally, I had been considering one that would convert into a booster seat, but in general those don't fold as small and in our current house we are running out of space (hello 5 kids!).This seats folds up with one hand and is compact enough to fit under the side of the counter of our kitchen island, so when we aren't using it, it is out of the way. Unfolding it with one hand is also fairly easy, although I have discovered that to unfold it one handed you really need to be using your right hand, so its not entirely lefthanded friendly (which to be honest, is true of most things).At first I wished that the seat came in more choices for the color scheme. I wasn't entirely sold on the gray "leather". Now after using the chair for a month I have come to appreciate the vinyl, much in the same way that I like having a leather interior in my car. In general, it makes for much easier clean ups. Also, the majority of the mess my son gets on the straps has for the most part been on the strap covers, which can come off and go in the laundry.The only really negative thing I'd have to say about the chair is that the tray can't sit flat on top of the counter. There is a part that sticks out on the bottom so it doesn't lay flat and/or tips over when you try. And yes there are a few nooks and crannys that are more difficult to clean out than other spots of the chair, but really, any high chair will have those.

Well it fold very good, so it fits in small spaces. Easy to clean, the seat cover is made of a kind of leather which helps very much to keep the chair clean; I just use a baby wipe to clean it. Also brings a seat pad you can take off and wash in the machine. You can adapt the hight you want it, it also reclines. Brings a second tray that you can easily take off and wash. You can also not use the tray and pull the baby in the table, by just adapting the chair on the right hight. Don't know why but my baby doesn't like this chair. He cries when you sit him, but it isn't all the time.
