If you’ve ever tried feeding your baby in your lap, a stroller, or some other piece of baby gear, by the end of the meal, there was probably a gigantic mess. To prevent this from happening, we recommend getting a highchair. It is not only more convenient but also much easier to clean, and will provide upright positioning for your baby as well.
Having a highchair in your home will make mealtime stress and mess free. You will need one as soon as your infant starts eating solid food. The right seating will make every meal comfortable and fun for your kiddo.
What kind of product you pick depends mostly on how much space you have in your home, but also on where you have your meals and how much cleaning you are willing to do.
When choosing the right seating arrangement, besides aesthetics, you should aim for the one that is soft and supporting, sturdy and secure. For practical purposes, it is helpful if the seating is portable, has an adjustable height and is easy to clean.
With Graco Blossom 6-in-1, you get all of these features and more. It is no wonder that this product is so popular among moms all over the Internet.

Six Different Seating Options
Graco 6-in-1 highchair grows with your child. It is adjustable into six different seating arrangements and will last with your growing family. The chair can be used as:
- Infant highchair with recline – allows you to feed your baby comfortably. It is also excellent for napping.
- Traditional highchair – the same chair, but at a 90-degree angle. Gives your child a secure place to play.
- Infant booster – you can attach it to a kitchen chair and seat your infant.
- Toddler booster – so your toddler can sit at the dining table with the rest of the family.
- Youth chair – safe and sturdy, perfect for a pre-schooler.
- Dual use – you can seat two kids simultaneously.
The parts are super easy to separate and reassemble so that you can get the most out of this thoughtful design.
Three Recline Positions
The three-point adjustable back is very convenient. It helps to get your baby into the perfect position for feeding.
Convertible 3 and 5-Point Harness
This product comes with a safety bar in the form of a 3 and 5-point harness. You can convert between these with ease depending on your necessities.
Height Adjustments
The chair has a six-point adjustable height. You can lower or raise it depending on how you’re feeding your child. There are enough upper body and footrest, so the chair accommodates your kid’s growing body.
Modern Design
The Blossom is easy on the eyes. It has a cool, modern design, and there isn’t a lot of space where the crumbs can get caught.
This highchair has two cloth coverings. The first one is an infant insert with some extra padding. Then you have a bottom layer which covers the entire seat.
The bottom layer has a fake leather feel and look. You can choose from five different color designs, so you will easily find the one that fits into your interior:
- Fifer – beige and brown
- Nyssa – beige, pink, and teal
- Raleigh – gray
- Sapphire – gray and teal, and
- Studio – black and white.
Easy to Wipe and Wash
Every piece of the highchair is super easy to clean. You can wash it off with a wet cloth for a quick clean up. It is pretty streamlined, so it is easy to see and wipe off any stains.
The entire frame, footrest, plastic tray, and seat pad are wipeable. Make sure to use only detergent or household soap and warm water. The tray insert can also be washed in the dishwasher, and the seat pad is machine-washable.
Removable Tray and Footrest
The one-hand removable tray is dishwasher safe. You can easily pull it out and wipe it down or toss it in the machine after an extra messy meal. Afterward, you can pop it back on, and you’re good to go.
The footrest is also removable, so you can take it off once your child doesn’t need it anymore.
Portable Booster
You can hook up the portable booster to the dining chair. That way, your toddler will be comfortable at the dining table while having a meal with the whole family.
Toss the booster in the car and take it with you while traveling. You will have a portable seating for your little one anywhere you go.
Seat Two Children at Once
Our favorite part about the Graco Blossom highchair is that it can fit two children simultaneously. The booster seat and the wheeling base can be combined into a single chair or used separately. Here is how you can make use of this convenient feature:
- use the toddler booster and highchair,
- the youth stool and infant booster, or
- the youth stool and toddler booster
Mobile
The Graco Blossom has four wheels. The two back wheels have a locking mechanism, so you can lock it in if needed, to keep your baby safe and in one place. But you can also unlock it to move your kid around the house.
What’s Wrong with the Product?
- Large Base
This piece of equipment does have a larger footprint, which may be a drawback if you live in a smaller apartment or a condo. It cannot be folded up for storage, so it does take a lot of space compared to some other sitting arrangements.
However, you do get six products in one. The chair is quite compact considering all of its different uses.
- The Harness Is Attached to the Tray
The anti-submarining harness is attached to the tray. It would be much safer if it were hooked up to the seat. With the current design, walking away to the sink to wash the tray is quite risky, as the child remains without the safety bar.
- Pricey
The Graco 6-in-1 highchair is on the pricey side. It is much more expensive than some other seating arrangements, so it doesn’t fit into everyone’s budget.
However, this highchair is worth the investment, since you will get a ton of use out of it. It is sturdy, durable, and you get six different products in one.
You will get good use out of Blossom until your child is about five or six years old.
