babydan chair vs tripp trapp

[jennyh]

Hi

Given that these look very similar and the concept is the same, does anyone have experience of both of these and can advise on the differences and pros/cons?

We have a babydan and I really like it (child now 2.5). The Tripp Trapp does look a bit nicer and you have the option of attaching a tray to it which you don't have with the babydan.

We have a babydan and I really like it. What BellendenBear said, basically. The tripp trapp is prettier but so much more expensive.

We have a babydan too and it's great! Used it with a padded insert til nearly a year - a lot cheaper than tripptrapp.

I would definately go for the Tripp trapp esp if you can buy one second hand. My nearly six year old is still happily sitting in hers, using it as a step/for cooking etc at the bench. Now she is older we have adjusted it so an adult can sit on it and I use it if working at the table (much better for my dodgy back). I think a really good investment - especially if you can pick one up for ?50-ish on here or ebay/gumtree.

I had one of each for my 2 youngest and they were equally as good as each other. I think the tripp trapp is much nicer to look at but the babydan is much cheaper (especially 2nd hand). You can't attach a tray to the babydan ...but the whole point was to have them sitting at the table wasn't it?
