Some moms try their hardest to have their baby's accessories fit in with their furnishings. The bright-colored plastic of the most well-known baby brands doesn't always complement their aesthetic. When a tot reaches the six-month mark and begins eating solid food, parents looking to blend their child's seating in with their own may turn to wooden high chairs to create a uniform look. These more traditional-looking chairs won't set you back a month's rent.
Simple: The Eddie Bauer Wooden Highchair ($120) is available in two wood finishes and features an adjustable tray table, rubber grips to keep it in place, and a three-point harness.
Swank: The Van Beek Kids Peek A Boost Chair ($350) is made of solid birch, boasts a five-point harness, and comes with a removable phthalate-free plastic tray. $50 from the sale of each chair is donated to one of eight charities benefiting victims of abuse and women and children in need.

i almost resgistered for the eddie bauer one, it was the least obnoxious one at target but i didn't like the fact i couldn't adjust the height
1I am gonna go with Swank on this one - it is beautiful, and still not too expensive!
2I don't like wooden ones because they can't recline. When I first started solids, my boys needed to not sit straight up or they got mad. They had to be slightly reclined.
I think I'll need it for my daughter as well. She won't start solids for at least a few more weeks, but she likes to lean forward when she's sitting straight up, which would be a huge "head bang into the tray" problem.
3no phalates is a good thing! and money going to charity?! nice... and when you're done you can try to sell it on craigslist!
