I bought this for my 6 year old son. We homeschool at the kitchen table and the height of the dining chair wasn’t very ergonomic at all. I wanted something I could adjust the height for that would have a solid place for him to plant his feet and allow him to do his school work with good posture. This fits the bill. I also have an Abiie Junior Y chair for my younger child. I would put a baby in that chair but I would not for this one. I don’t think this would be safe for a baby or young toddler (though I read somewhere you can use a Tripp Trapp seating insert here I haven’t tried it). For an older child, this is great. Very sturdy hard wood. It is not super easy to adjust the seating height and foot board, though. What I had to do was use an Allen wrench to loosen everything and then have my son sit in it to find the right height for the boards. Once I had them where I wanted them, I tightened all the bolts. The rubber “feet” on the bottom of this chair make it where a child cannot slide it forward to the table while sitting in it. I think I will add felt to the feet to make this easier. For the price, the quality of the this seems to be very good. I don’t think you can go wrong buying it for preschoolers and up.
