Baby Products Reviews of Graco Contempo Highchair in Kasbah
Customer Review: Stylish, yet functional
Summary: 4 Stars
I really like this highchair. I bought it for two reasons--one it matches my decor and doesn't stick out like a sore thumb. I cannot stand all those baby prints! Secondly it folds remarkably flat, which, admittedly, we haven't done, but I don't think its that big of a deal since it blends in so well! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that the footrest seems to be only for looks. My daughter is only 6 months, but the way it is recessed I don't believe she will ever be able to make use of it. I'm sure this is a drawback of it being able to fold down so slim. I also really like that it is on wheels, and the seat cover is a soft, plastic that is easy to wipe down and keep clean, yet soft and comfortable for her to sit in. I haven't had a big enough mess to have to wash it in the washing machine yet, but it looks as though it will wash well. I also recommend purchasing the optional mix 'n move toys that will fit on the tray--they are more entertaining to her that I would have thought, and they don't end up on the floor all of the time!Customer Review: Graco Contemp Kasbah
Summary: 4 Stars
I ordered the Graco Contempo highchair in Kasbah due to its favorable ratings and reviews which I've read. This is for my third child and the second high chair which I've owned. My previous high chair was the expensive Peg Perego Prima Pappa chair (2002 model). That chair warped and yellowed in the heat of my attic between my second and third children (while in storage), so we had to discard it recently.
I like the Graco Contempo highchair for the price, and it has all the features which seem like it will be functional and easy to use. Everything works like advertised with recline, height, folding, etc. I like that the child sits closer to the tray than the Peg Perego, since that was my major complaint with that chair (food was always in his lap, and tray was too high and far away).
Overall, Graco contempo pros and cons:
Pros:
1. easy to use and has all major features of upscale highchairs
2. price is competitive for its features
3. Kasbah pattern is very designer and neutral
4. folds easily and narrowly
5. tray scoots very close to child
6. Mix n' move toys can be attached to undertray
7. 5 point harness
8. wheels around easily
Cons:
1. overall seems a bit less sturdy in construction than the more expensive Peg Perego ($229). A bit more wobbly and lighter weight tubing in legs, tray shakes a bit more when attached than the Peg Perego model.
2. Seat cover is a bit "plastic" feeling instead of the more oilcloth fabric I expected
3. There is an oval applique with "Graco" behind the child's head which doesn't show in the sample pictures. It would look more designer without the logo there.
4. Footrest seems like it is too far back to be useful, even when my child gets tall enough to reach it. It is not adjustable.
Overall, I'm satisfied for the price. It looks good and works easily. It wasn't worth paying $229 (more than twice as much) for the Peg Perego again since I had major problems with that chair too (tray too high, tray too far away from closest seatback position, tray stained easily).
Worth $99 -- You probably won't have any complaints if you're not comparing it to a former chair that cost over $200 like I was.
Customer Review: Great value - Great High Chair
Summary: 5 Stars
Graco Contempo Highchair in Kasbah
This highchair is easy to assemble and clean. It is easy to strap and unstrap. Since the chair is on wheels, it is easy to move around. I think it is a great value and solidly constructed. I am very happy with this purchase.
Customer Review: New mom, Love it!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have a small apartment and was hesitant to buy a full size high chair, but ended up with this one after reading a ton of reviews. It is a great product. No assembly and very easy to use. Chair pad and tray wipe up clean, easier than my baby does!! Folds easily and quickly, fits in the small space on the side of my dryer. My only complaint is I wished it came with a Graco "mix and move" toy which attaches to the under-tray (optional)... Only because they are hard to find, but handy. happy shopping!Customer Review: nice highchair - cool colors
Summary: 4 Stars
I do like this highchair, mostly because it is stylish. The colors are much better in person than on the pictures. Very nice. Our 5 month old baby fits nicely into it with plently of room to grow.
cons: the footrest is way too low and not adjustable. the tray doesn't feel as secure as I thought it would. It does roll, but not very well.
overall I am happy with this chair for the price.
