In the process of growing up, a child has to go through many difficult trials for him, but there is one stage during which the parents have even more difficulty than the baby himself - this is the transition from breastfeeding to eating "adult" food. Since such a transition can be considered fully completed only when a small person learns to eat on his own, the process sometimes drags on for a good couple of years.
During these years, the mother is saved from hundreds of liters of porridge spilled on the floor and kilometers of spoiled nerves only by a timely purchased highchair, which allows her to securely fix the baby so that it does not turn the bowl over. In the process of choosing the ideal option, parents study dozens of models, and among them there must definitely be a place for the Babyton brand highchair.
Features:
The Babyton highchair is produced by a fairly well-known European (however, conditionally) company of the same name. On the one hand, it is correct to call it German, because all these contacts are connected specifically with Germany, but Russian consumers note that China is usually indicated on the boxes as the producing country. Nowadays, such geographical incidents should no longer surprise anyone - especially since consumers clearly say: the quality of such a product does not allow them to complain that the chair is Chinese.
Judging by numerous reviews, consumers usually do not complain about such a purchase... On the contrary, most of them note a number of advantages, among which the following should be mentioned.
Practicality
The developers have tried to make any of their brainchildren sufficiently versatile. First of all, the use of furniture of this brand is possible from the age of six months up to three years - and this, as a rule, is the period when a child from a nursing infant turns into a self-eating baby.
Considering that every person, even a very small one, may have their own idea of convenience, the German company took care of the variety of fixed positions - parents can choose from three different backrest positions and as many as five seat height positions... Since the product has a large number of adjustable mechanisms, the possibility of folding for compact storage looks logical.
Wheels with stoppers (not available on all models) help parents not be separated from their baby in any corner of the apartment, but a special basket under the seat allows you to always have everything your child may need at hand.
There are also transformer models in the lineup - they have special practicality due to the ability to turn the highchair into a table with a chair.
Ease of cleaning
No child under the age of three will take care of cleanliness while eating, even if asked very strongly about it, so Babyton has provided a convenient removable cover in their products. It is made of water-repellent polyester that will not absorb most spills: it is not even necessary to remove it often for washing, but this possibility is simplified as much as possible, because the fabric is attached to the case with ordinary buttons.
The plastic (for transformers - wooden) chair body is easily washed from almost any contamination, but the manufacturer warns: you should not use bleach and other caustic substances - it is best to limit yourself to a mild detergent combined with a dish sponge.
The removable tabletop is washed by analogy with an ordinary plastic tray, and for greater convenience of storage, special fasteners on the back of the legs are also provided for it.
Safety concerns
Parents of the child are ready to go to any hardships, so as not to expose the baby to any risk, therefore the Babyton highchair is an example of engineering genius who purposefully worked on the safety of the seat passenger. A product with European registration simply cannot contain any harmful chemical components, capable of harming a person.
Reliable five-point belts will not only fix the baby qualitatively so that he does not accidentally fall from a height during the game, but also take care of the comfort of the household. For the baby himself, there are soft shoulder pads that protect against chafing, and to reduce the frequency of necessary washings, the belts are also protected in front with additional stripes, which should please the mother.
The design provides for the presence of an inguinal stopper that does not allow the baby to slide down under the tabletop, however, the manufacturer took a rather unusual step, making it removable - this will allow the strengthened baby to climb onto the seat independently in the future.
Any of the models has a sufficiently wide spread of legs to exclude the possibility of a child turning over the structure, and those models on which wheels are also present are necessarily equipped with high reliability stoppers.
Appearance
A product for a child must necessarily be aesthetically attractive, because one cannot deprive a child of the most important thing - childhood. At the same time, parents probably would like such a huge object to be correctly fitted into the interior, not to stand out from the rest of the environment.
The variety of models and colors of Babyton chairs allows every family to choose the option that best suits their apartment.
Perhaps, completely uncritical products simply do not exist: even Babyton chairs are periodically criticized. However, they have no global drawbacks, and consumers' dissatisfaction in such cases is caused either by the impossibility of adjusting the height of the footrest, or by their large weight (up to 10 kilograms), or by the relatively small width of the seat.
Color solutions
It should be noted that the range used for the design of high chairs depends on which of the lines this furniture model belongs to. In general, Babyton produces either classic models or transformers, and the latter, alas, do not have a wide assortment in terms of colors at all - they are characterized by typical woody tones, somewhat diluted with painted white flowers, which, however, does not look so attractive.
Models of classical design look fundamentally different, since their color range of covers allows us to talk about the width of the choice and the real beauty of the products. The assortment includes a whole palette of shades: coffee and purple, green and red, white-blue and yellow-blue, blue, and other colors. At the same time, the cover is not dyed monotonously - on the contrary, it is decorated with a pattern of small details: both specks of an abstract form and quite specific figures, sustained in the right colors.
To heighten the aesthetic effect, some parts of the plastic case are painted in the same color, which gives the composition integrity.
Tips for choosing
When a certain brand of products is already known, the instructions for choosing a specific model may contain only recommendations regarding the choice depending on certain properties.
In particular, when choosing the Babyton highchair, first you need to decide: classic or transformer. Both lines contain a fairly large number of different models, which globally do not differ from each other in anything - the difference lies only in insignificant differences regarding the shape of the product or the number of adjustable positions, as well as the presence or absence of certain features.
The choice in favor of a transformer is often argued that such furniture, transformed into a children's table with a chair, will last longer, but in practice, due to the small height of the chair, this is not very similar to the truth. On the other hand, this somewhat expands the possibilities of using the purchase.
Classic models look more attractive and offer more design options.
The presence of a large number of fixed positions is also not necessarily an obvious advantage - if the parents somehow manage to find the optimal position for their baby, then all the rest will be unnecessary. Variety is welcome if the highchair is bought for a baby at a fairly early age, when it is more convenient to carry out the first feeding in a semi-recumbent position, and then, as the child grows, gradually bring the back position to vertical.
This option is also needed in a situation where the baby in such a chair will not only eat, but also play or relax. Otherwise, when a child only eats with the help of such furniture, and in itself is already quite large, the possibility of regulation loses its original significance, provided that the sitting is generally comfortable.
In a sense, the same statement applies to wheels. They are necessary in order to be able to transport the product around the apartment, however, if the child only eats on the highchair, such a procedure most likely takes place stably in the kitchen (this makes cleaning easier). Wheels are unnecessary for such purposes, but there is a reason that makes them very important.
The fact is that even the manufacturer himself does not recommend leaving the child on the seat alone, unattended by adults, regardless of how old he is. This means that if parents still assume the possibility of games for the baby directly on the highchair, they must either always be present nearby in the same room, or choose a model with wheels.
Models and reviews
It will be quite difficult for a simple layman to navigate the models, since Babyton did not particularly rack their brains over coming up with names, limiting themselves to an alphanumeric code. Suffice it to say that such a chair - either a classic shape or a transformer, turns into a table with a chair, and in all other respects the difference is limited by dimensions, shape and some small options.
You can find a variety of reviews on the products of this brand on the Internet - from very optimistic and enthusiastic to completely devastating, categorically not recommending buying such a product. In general, there is a tendency according to which highchairs of the classic form are more praised (although quite harsh criticism also comes across), but the models that imply transformation, in most cases, are mercilessly criticized.
In particular, the most common complaint is the incompleteness of the kit - for example, the screws necessary for self-assembly of the product may be completely absent or present in an incomplete composition, even contrary to what is written in the accompanying documents. By the way, some consumers don't like the fact that the chair is sold disassembled.
One gets the impression that the chairs of this brand are a purchase, so to speak, at random. At its low price, it can be an excellent investment for the entire period of the child's early childhood, but it is possible that parents will regret even such a relatively small waste.
