Best known for their stylish and practical inline double strollers, New Zealand based phil and teds also offer the hip and practical metoo portable highchair. If you have a sturdy table or breakfast bar, then your big clunky highchair days are over! The metoo is a fully collapsible seat that clamps right onto the side of most tables, creating an instant highchair. Now, your little one can eat right at the table with the rest of your family. We tested the red metoo by attaching it to our solid wood dining table. Our 11-month old loves it. She happily swings her legs below as she enjoys breakfast and lunch at the head of the table with my husband and me. I must admit that I was a little nervous at first. After all, my baby is hanging off the side of a table. But after a few meals, I relaxed– realizing there really was no danger. The shoulder and lap harness snap together in front, and the clamps have a rubber flange for a secure grip. She’s not going anywhere.
The seat is engineered to hold children up to 40lbs. Please note its intended use is for babies and children who are already sitting up on their own. Although I enjoy using the metoo at home, it was cleverly designed to be a portable highchair. Weighing a mere 2lbs and collapsing down to 1 inch thick, you can take your metoo anywhere. We receive many compliments on it at restaurants. Constructed with a high quality, lightweight aluminum frame and easy to clean nylon fabric, the metoo will sustain long term use and abuse. I think the metoo is a great product for home and travel.

We have this chair, and I have to say it is wonderful. The best thing and the thing that makes it better than all the other attach-to-the-table chairs is that it folds down so flat. The other ones all have these huge arms that reach out so far…this you can keep in a diaper bag!
I’ve had this chair for 4 years and we love it. I used it for my daughter on our kitchen island so she could eat while I cleaned. We now use it for my son – the only chair he can’t escape! It is my “go to” shower gift!
