First, you need to look for the certification sticker. It shows that the manufacturer takes part in a certification program administered by the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA). This can reassure you to some degree but it is not a guarantee. Here are some tips that can help you what are the basic safety needs before buying a high chair: http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/high-chairs/buying-guide.htm

Is it safe to use a high chair that attaches to a table?

The high chairs that attach to tables are safe as long as you follow the instructions. Don't put a kid in it if they are too heavy and use the safety harness and don't ever leave your kid unsupervised. Also be careful that the items on the table near them are not hot or breakable.

How to choose a safe high chair

Perhaps the most important feature in a high chair is its' safety. Safety must be put first when buying this type of chair. Foremost, you should make sure the chair has a five-point safety harness or another type of safety that doesn't allow the baby to stand up from the chair or slip down from it. Next, make sure that the high chair is constructed appropriately and does not make any weird noises. Make sure it doesn't get out of position or collapses when there's pressure on it. After that, make sure that the moving parts cannot harm the baby in anyway. Finally, check the edges of the chair to see if there are any sharp points that could harm the child. Clearly, high chairs must be picked carefully the safety must be put first. Last thing you want to is an unnecessary injury to your baby just because of a poorly made high chair.

I know I want to buy a classic wooden high chair for my little girl but I don't really know what factors to take into consideration. Can anyone be of assistance?

I would be more than happy to help. When buying a classic high chair it is important to focus on the basics. Is the chair comfortable? Most high chairs come with a cushioned seat. Is it durable? Since most are made from wood/plastic it will most likely be durable. What kind of portability will this high chair offer? Some high chairs are designed to fold up for easy storage. How easy is it to clean? Most classic high chairs have vinyl seats allowing ease when it comes time to clean up. Last and most important, is it safe?

I have a 6 months baby, should I get a high chair or a booster?

: I recommend getting ahigh chair for babies in this age. Boosters will not provide the body sidesupport a baby needs. When your baby is sitting and stable (when about 1.5-2Years, than it is safer to try a booster.
