Pros: Reasonably priced.Looks very nice.Easy to clean Takes up very little space.Can be used w/out tray for seating child comfortably at the table.Broad age range usage; from about 9 months up (8 yr old 62 pounder still sits in them w/out tray).Cons: Hard to go back to a two handed tray.Flimsy strap latches that come loose and could be a danger. No height adjustment.No seat cushion or padding.Our first wooden booster seat was an Eddie Bauer brand that we really enjoyed.When child number 3 came sooner than we expected, we were needing another one.Couldn't find the eddie bauer chair, but this one was available.Drawbacks were that this type of tray must be removed with both hands.And the quality of the straps were not as good as the eddie bauer booster.Our kids can struggle enough to make the child restraint straps come undone if the tray isn't in place.It also makes it hard to properly tighten the booster to a chair becuase of the flimsy plastic latches on the straps under the bottom of the chair.You can't pull hard enough to tighten it up properly without the straps coming undone.But despite these inconvenient features, we really, really wanted nice looking chairs that saved space and matched our wood themed home.The straps can be replaced.They either slip out or screw on and off for cleaning.Cleaning is very easy for me compared to the plastic booster seats.There really aren't that many cracks to smash food into.I definately prefer cleaning these over the plastic high chairs and booster seats.I've never really been a fan of plastic seats.They get brittle and dull over time and look tacky.Also, the eddie bauer seat has height adjustment w/ legs that fold under to lower it.We haven't had any need for the height adjustment, so it isn't and issue for us.The Eddie Bauer seat came with acushion/cover.The kids don't seem to care that there isn't a pad, and that is one less thing to clean.I was amazed that the price for one of these was comparable to low end plastic boosters w/ tray.Very happy to buy quality wood products for the same price.For those who are into being green, the bamboo is a great option over plastic.Really, really enjoy not having our dining area feel like a pastel plastic baby zone.It is the right chair for us, despite the cons.
