My daughter is 18 months and I am beginning to find it a bit awkward getting her in and out her high chair with the baby set attachment.


I've had to dispense with the cushions as with those in place it's impossible to get her out!


What age have others taken the baby set off? I do have a harness however feel reluctant to remove the baby set at this stage, although can't see it being possible to keep it in place too much longer!

I think it was just after she was 2. I agree it was a struggle to get her in and out, but she is quite slim. I think I took the pillow off too and adjusted the top plate so it was as far back (as comfy) but it opened up a big more leg room.


In terms of her escaping, I had to make it clear that there was no getting down until you ask mummy and hands/face are wiped (took a few times but ok now). (we never used the harness btw).

I took it off with my son when my daughter was born as I couldn't put him in and out and hold her at the same time! He was almost 2.

With my daughter we took it off when she was just over 1 as she was always trying to climb up by herself (yes I was there supervising, she's always been a climber!) and I figured I'd rather she could sit down and stay there when she got to the top than teeter about with nowhere to go.

Wow. It's like the cot thing - I want to keep my little boy imprisoned by the baby set for as long as I can squeeze him in!! He'll be off in an instant otherwise...so at 2 and a quarter I'm still wedging him in - have to take his shoes off but its fine and there's NO escape so no need for the harness.


I'm either a total pushover (probable) or he's just wild (possible) as strict rules or not he'd be slipping off 5 mins into a meal given a chance...

    • I would also highly recommend Matt and Harri. They are hardworking, knowledgeable, friendly and clear about costs and timings. They came last October to cut back overgrown hedges, took out some sickly bamboo (including digging out a tangle of roots), jet washed paving and installed fencing for me. They have advised me which plants would work and sent me detailed listings of those plants including costings. Matt is a great communicator and replied very quickly to my initial query, visiting promptly to view the job as well as emailing a detailed quote and maintaining communication by text and phone. They did the job that I wanted, in the time frame that I wanted and at the price they had quoted. I was so pleased with their work and feel comfortable having them around (genuinely nice guys as the previous review mentioned) that I am now having them back to do the next job of sourcing suitable plants and planting them into the spaces that were cleared last autumn.

    • The person who started the previous thread I linked to said they were Greek, so I presume would be well aware of cultural nuances. The absolute kindest thing I can think of is that whoever started the shop (and I believe there are several shops) was not aware of the meaning of the name. But surely you would not just pluck a name for a new business out of the air? Surely you would make sure it did not have any possible negative connotations, in any language? Has anybody actually asked the shop about this?  As regards this "vegan hot chocolate", I'm bemused. The chocolate powder itself was surely just cocoa and sugar? It doesn't normally have any animal related products in it, does it? So it must have been the milk which made it "vegan", so probably either oat milk or soya milk? I regularly make hot chocolate with oat milk, and occasionally have it when  out. It has never occurred to me to call it "vegan" (I'm not a vegan), and I've never seen it described as "vegan". When I'm out I just ask for hot chocolate with oat milk. It obviously doesn't taste the same as when made with cow's milk, but I prefer the taste. I don't particularly like drinks made with soya milk, which in any case curdles in certain hot drinks, but  most places give you a choice of milk?
    • Good news! A friend with techie knowledge was able to get into the laptop (not physically) and I've now saved the recent unbacked up data onto an external hard drive (and I won't be making that mistake again). Remarkably, whatever he did caused the  screen to spring back to life, and I can actually now  do things on the laptop. However it is in safe mode, and my  friend said not to take it out of safe mode or turn it off, in case I can't get back into it again. Because I don't know what the problem was in the first place which caused the sudden  total and persistent screen blackout, I am worried that  the same thing may happen again. I phoned Which Tech,  as they will now be able to connect to it remotely as they will be able to see the screen, but they don't have an appointment for a week. I also phoned John Lewis again, but they still rabbited on about a factory reset always being "highly recommended" 🙄 presumably because that's what wherever they send laptops to be repaired always does first. Is there any easy way (without potentially making things worse again) to look  into the laptop  history to identify what happened last Monday around 3pm?!
