Compared to the Pottery Barn Anywhere chair, what do you prefer?

I have both. Found the Pottery Barn chair at a second hand store for $20. My 2 yo daughter likes to climb,recline, stand on and generally cover the chairs. This chair has a solid structure and is not prone to tipping.The Pottery barn chair has to be against a wall or it will tip. Right now I prefer the Roundy chair. The Pottery Barn chair is bigger, so I'm hoping she will grow into it when she is bigger she'll have better control over her movements and be less prone to flipping over or off. We'll see...

I can't compare the two however our little granddaughter LOVES her chair/ottoman that we gave her for her 1st birthday. She was two 'big' sisters 3,4- that also love it- has held up well for the 3 of them!

Is this the one you mean? http://www.amazon.com/Designer-Modern-Plastic-Dining-WoodLeg/dp/B00768D7OK/ref=pd_sim_hg_4 I have the two Baxton chairs--only one assembled and the other is in storage. It looks great, it's really comfortable, but it keeps separating from the base. The screws keep coming out and we keep putting them in. It seems like it's just how the design is because there is pressure constantly on and off the front of the chair when you sit on it so unless the other kind is built differently--like no screws and it's welded on--I'm not sure how much better it would be. Probably worth the price difference if it's constructed differently though.

high back chair with a large seat area is best. its pretty tall but its awesome.

There are some wood color variations in my chair, but it's not so great a difference as to be distracting or a problem for us. I do want to say that my wife and I just noticed the other day that our two daughters have been using the chairs to sit at the dining table for nearly six years! They are 7 and 10 now and still love them. The best part is the adjustable foot rest so their legs don't dangle. Thanks.

I would definitely go with the shorter one for sitting that is the one I have and it is perfect for sitting and kneeling. The other can work but kinda a pain because you have to spread legs out so far.

Thank you all for your responses. You have convinced me that this chair is a great choice. My two grandsons are going to flip when they each receive one for their birthday.

The larger one. I would try to find a store where I could sit in it. I had one before Ann loved it. The last one was too small. I should have returned it, but was lazy. Peg

The Swooper Chair looks to be designed a bit more robustly. It may be a bit heavier. The Kore chair does have a few "cheap" fasteners that break easily on a hard surface floor. The base in convex which gives the chair it's movement where the Swooper seems to utilize a heavy spring. The Kore is a much simpler design with very little that could go wrong, but it is not using the best components giving it the less expensive price. The Kore is worth what I paid.

This chair is a great solution for form and function. It's a bit pricey but worth it for what you get. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0039MIN00/ref=pd_aw_sim_hg_35?refRID=1NWN6WB0VZM44Z39MRWF

I have them both. This one is fine but the IKEA is wider and a bit more substantial.

Here's gift recipients response:Actually I like the chair because the back is firm, and not slouchy like most bag chairs. I can't say how comfortable it is for a length of time because I sit in it for maybe five minutes before I get up to do something.

I'm not familiar with the old version, but this chair is comfortable on my back for an hour or more at a time.

The only difference is the toy tray. I purchased one for Grandma and Grandpa's house and one for home and haven't had to purchase a highchair. My daughter is now over a year and a half and still using both. The toys were short lived, but they did entertain her for a bit. I definitely recommend either. They are great space savers!

This chair helps support your lower back but it would support more if you use a small pillow. I do prefer a chair like this one that has a separate foot stool instead of the one that pops out from a recliner. Most recliners are just too big and sloppy.I am 6 ft and 250 lbs and fit in this chair just how I like it. It doesn't lay perfectly flat but it is comfortable enough for me to take a nap!I like the arm rests because they aren't too high, if that makes sense. I have long arms and if the chair's arms are too "high" then it is uncomfortable.The only other chair I considered is a very similar one at Costco Online.

The reason I got this chair is because I think it's versatile enough to be in any room. I actually plan on moving it to my room for my own use!

Very comfortable, but everyone's body is different. They're similar to chairs in many restaurants--if those are comfortable to you, these probably will be. If you like the look of them, I'd say order one, test it out and return it if its not comfortable. You won't even have to assemble it--the seat comes unattached but you can just place it on the frame to try it without screwing it on, so you can still return it easily. I find them really comfortable and so does everyone I've had over who has sat on them, but there's really no way to tell for sure unless you try it yourself. Good luck finding the perfect chair for you!
