Fun, Functional, and Pretty September 30, 2008
I've had this chair for over 4 months now (purchased when she was 4 months old) and my little one has really grown to love it. We were a little eager to get her sitting up, so though she was a little slouchy at first, she's got the hang of it now.
First off, it is by far the easiest high chair to "wipe" down. Yes, like another reviewer mentioned, the cushion can stain from things like spaghetti sauce, but I've found that if you soak it in soapy warm water it will remove most of it. And another trick in general to get out tough stains/grease, you just add a used up dryer "softener" sheet in the water and it removes stains more easily (this remedy works for removing stains from all over the house and cars). Anyhow, in most cases, the seat just needs a quick wipe down and a rinse of the tray and you're good to go for the next meal. Also, I wanted to mention in response to another reviewer that mentioned you can't remove the tray with one hand, you actually can, I do it ALL the time, you just have to pull one side out first and the other side will follow -- sort of a no-brainer (no offense).
Secondly, lately I have been using the chair to wheel her around the house while I do chores, like cooking, cleaning, folding laundry -- we are fortunate that most of the house has hard wood floors, so I just scoot her all over and she thinks it's a fun game or something. And anytime she gets restless, I just spin her around and she giggles away! The lift has always worked for me as well as the brake, so I'm sorry to hear other people have issue, but like some have mentioned, BOON has the most AMAZING customer service I've ever encountered. They are the most kind, helpful, efficient native-english speaking customer service people around! I can't say enough about them (they helped me with some other Boon products -- feeding supplies that I purchased).
Okay, last off, no one can deny it's an eye catcher. The unique design/appearance is just appealing. I have a baby blog (www.avawhatley.blogspot.com) and any time people have seen her in that chair, we get a ton of questions about where we got the chair and how cool it looks, etc. It creates quite a buzz and I think she has become the poster-child for the Boon products in general among my family, friends, and random visitors. Anyhow, another item you may want to check out is the Boon Squirt Spoon, it has also been a life saver (especially for traveling or going out to eat at restaurants)!
Hope this was helpful!
 Amazing customer service September 22, 2008

I purchased the highchair while I was pregnant and had trouble with the lift mechanism. I called Boon and a "live" person answered the phone (I don't remember the last time I called a company and did not have to select an option). Although most of the company was at a trade show and could not call me back. The following Monday morning after the trade show, my phone rang and they took my information and sent a new lift shaft via fed-ex. I have never experienced such great customer service...EVER! If you do have any trouble with your highchair they will take care of the problem. I had read a similair review on Baby Bargains, so I felt comfortable purchasing a new to market product at the time. Now my chair functions perfectly, looks nice, and is easy to clean.
An excellent product September 9, 2008
We have a modern design aesthetic throughout our house, and this chair was primarily chosen to fit the existing furniture. We were very happy to discover that it is an excellent product aside from looking great. We have owned it for over a month and have had a wonderful time exploring the new world of solid foods for our six month old son in this chair. He is small for his age, but fits perfectly in this seat. The straps are very secure, and the molded seat fits him well and comfortably. Cleanup is VERY easy with the detachable tray and solid plastic construction. The wheels are also a key feature. Our son has lots of fun being rolled around by us (while he is strapped in with the tray in place) before and after the meals. It is also nice that we can just roll the chair from table to sink for cleaning before lifting him out of the chair (thus saving our clothes from residual food goo). There is ample room for him to grow and still use this chair. The pneumatic lift is a great feature as my husband and I are different heights, and we can adjust for greater comfort while feeding him. At the lowest height, the chair arms fit perfectly under our table for a nice tidy look between meals. I highly recommend this product.
Nice looking chair. Works pretty well. September 7, 2008
This is a nice highchair. I had the Peg Perego chair with my first child, but it got filthy (as highchairs do) and was hard to clean. Too many little grooves and places for food the get stuck. After researching high chairs extensively, I decided on the Boon Flair. It was just much better looking and easier to clean then anything else out there, unless you are willing to spend really big money.
We have been using the chair for about a month.
PROS:
- Nice looking
- Easy to clean!!!
- Easy to move around and up and down
CONS:
-Doesn't recline. My daughter is 5 1/2 months old now and is just starting to look more comfortable in it without being slouchy.
-You need to use 2 hands to get the tray off and on. Impossible to do if you are holding a baby.
-The buckle is pretty stiff. Again, hard to do with one hand.
-The straps are very soft, which is nice, but because they are not stiffer, they twist easily. They then get creased around the buckle and look messy.
Even though I have more cons than pros, in my mind, the pros are much more important. I would still recommend this chair and haven't seen anything else for the price that is even close.
Fantastic High Chair August 31, 2008
Absolutely love this highchair! Bought a second for my mother in laws house. Easy to clean and move around and easy to assemble. Looks great as well. Only draw back.... the straps are a pain to release or tighten.
