"We love the Keekaroo Height Right High Chair in our home. Not only is it attractive and easy to put together, but it is really important to me that it isn't made of plastic, that it can be used for many years long after my baby is no longer a baby, and it is easy to clean. Just another product that makes living green with baby easy, fun, and attractive." Manda Aufochs Gillespie aka The Green Mama
