can kids use this chair?

I have a 18 and a 10 year old Grandsons. I bought them both one. They love them. They are fairly sturdy considering the cost. My 2 year old grandson wants one. So I am sure I will get him one next year. Rachel

Absolutely. My 9 and 7 year old boys use them for 1-2 hours every day. At first they complained that the padding was thin ('these chairs are hard'), but they quickly started sitting in them every day instead of bean bags. My boys really like them, and they're a good value. I hope that helps.

The chair would have to have some form of a hole to hook the harness to. If not, you could potentially use the legs. I've found this harness extremely useful, my toddler NEVER sits still...!

Yes, it is funny as we have this chair for our now 3 1/2 year old. He loves it but we keep it in the living room and adults regularly sit in it. I think it is wearing out a little faster as a result, but it is holding up pretty well and looks good for a piece of kids furniture.

You could use the chair itself but I don't think the tray would work very well for an older child. I would just pull the chair up to the table without the tray. The height of the chair is adjustable and there is a seat cushion for older children that you can purchase instead of the infant seat and straps.

My children love to swivel and play on this, but I am not certain that it would be suitable for holding them to work for long periods of time. The straddle would likely be too wide for undeveloped bodies. Also, they really grove on lifting the "Lift" handle and spinning recklessly, which has been a bit of a nuisance...if not hazardous. In my studio, the Hermes chair is for me, and I try to keep the kids off it.

Absolutely! My son is almost 3 and it's a great chair for him and he will probably have it for a few more years.

As JLo C. said, as ong as they can sit up and hold up their heads no problem. The seat is somewhat slippery as it is all wood and would be a long fall if they did wriggle out. Look for the attachments on craigslist and such. We are going to make our own cushion for it. Our 2 year old uses it but our one year old is still in the regular high chair.

No. This is a child's chair. My three year old can fit in it but it is not suited for an adult. I hope this helps.

We really like ours and they are used in front of our theater seating. Our 4 yr old Grandson has no problem with this chair.

It would likely depend on the height and weight of the child comparing with the recommendations of the manufacturer. There may be more versatile high chairs or booster chairs available for an older child. We did not look as our little boy is less than one year old and on the smaller side. Good luck~!

This is a great chair. We use it for my grandson who is about the same size and weight.

Yes. Our grandchildren, who received it, are ages 11, 9 and 7 and have not had any issues using it safely. Good height when child is seated as well.

I believe this chair was designed for toddlers through possibly first grade (judging from the size.)I work with the children in our Sunday School twice a week and have sat on these chairs myself so that I can be at the child's level while working with them. I weigh 140 pounds and it has supported me without difficulty. We have been using these chairs for about 18 months and have been very happy with how well they have worked. They do not tip over easily and hold even my weight well.

Not if they already can sit up relatively well. But it is kind of a slouchy chair, even for older and bigger kids. We sometimes stuffed a folded up blanket down behind my son's back to help with that.

Depending on the size of the child, I think this step stool might not be a good "chair". Not roomy enough. Hope this is helpful.

Hi, My kid is almost 4, but my two nephews, 7 and 8 years old, always use the chairs and the table with no problem. I consider that until 6 or 7 years are the most suitable. You welcome!

The chair height is adjustable but it would depend on the size of the child; I'd definitely say it may be suitable for teens.
