This is our second time to use our tot seat.
Once you really read the manual, you will get the hang of it.
It is relative simple to put together and it is quite safe.
The one draw back is the baby is not aligned with the table and he can't play with any toys on the table surface.
If your baby wants to eat by himself or play toys on the table, a booster seat might be a better choice. But of course it's a whole lot bulkier and heavier.
