can a preschooler 2-3 year old sit in this chair at a COUNTER HEIGHT island to eat?

Yes- it adjusts to any height. My two year old sits at counter. Very sturdy and easy to put together

How tall is the counter? Without knowing that, I would say most likely not though as the maximum height of the seat is 24". Hope that helps.

That May Be A Little High For This Chair At Counter Height, THough It Was Perfect For Regular Dinner Table height.

sorry..didn't see this in my email till now..No not at counter height. We use a Learning Tower for our 2 1/2 year old to stand at the counter and do art projects, "help" with cooking etc. The chair is too low for a counter.

If you're toddler sits still, yes. Depending on their height, they might have to sit on their knees. Ours sits nicely and can reach fine sitting on her bottom. We also have a counter height dining room table instead of the lower, regular size. I don't if these would be too tall to use with a regular size table.

And eat comfortably? Maybe not. But if I sit at it without putting my knees under, of course, and as long as I'm turned sideways a bit, it's perfect for joining a 2-yr old at mealtime or playtime.

Yes! In fact, I was sitting at the table this morning helping my 2 year old GrandPrincess put together a puzzle. I'm 5'3", and most likely weigh at least 2-3X as much as any 6 year old. I served lunch at the table for 2-2year olds, a 3 year old and a rather tall 5 year old, and it worked perfectly.

A child should be able to sit up. I moved my son when he was 1 year so he could eat at our table instead of his tray.

My 6 year old grandson could just fit in a chair, but I think it is more about the size of the child rather than the weight, as the set has been used by other grandchildren ages from about 1 up to 6 very comfortably. The child's size is the determining factor. The chairs are very sturdy, will not collapse, and even some adults have trouble figuring out how to fold seats up until I show them the peg to press on the chair leg; chairs are very secure. I wouldn't advise an adult using it for a step stool, but all ages of preschool should have no problem sitting. The top of table & chairs is only lightly padded & table should be covered it for large art projects/placemats for meals to keep the surface intact, as "fabric" of chairs and table could be indented/cut if not used properly. It is a very charming set.

I am not the seller, but I bought 4 of these chairs for the island in my kitchen, which is counter height. They are perfect for a counter height island. :)

My 3 year old is 45 inches tall and has had no problem using it... and I have the seat backI guess in answer to the , "what 3 year old would be able to use it?"- the answer would be mine- and she is fine with the motor skills needed to operate it also Perhaps the company should put a height guidleline on it instead of age- but mine loves hers...

We have seat on highest position for 2 yr old and it is perfect for a regular height table. Dont think it would work for counter height

The chair is small for a child 1-3 years old. My granddaughter that is 5,who is small for her age can sit in it but not for long

yes...my son is 2.5 and uses it fine...it's a little difficult for him to get onto by himself (even with a step stool), but once we get him up there, sitting on it is great and comfortable...

Not necessarily, though my 2 year old grandson can climb up onto it and has to be closely supervised. That said, he enjoys this table more as he gets older.

Yes! Definitely! My daughter is there but it can definitely fit 5 and 6 yr olds. It's a great little chair.

My grand daughter is 4 and it is a little tall for her to reach the top level. She has a little stool that she stands on and that works fine.

It is very good for 3 year olds. My child is now 4 and still loves playing restaurant with her babies.

Yes,I think it would be fine. I got my grandson who was 1yr. old and his sister the table. They may need a little help sitting on chair at first,but they grow so fast they will do fine after a little while.

I use it at the counter with 2,5 years old, but 1 years old has a tray due to the middle piece not allowing to get close enough to the table.
