Lalo High Chair - owner feedback

The Best Parts

Appealing, modern design that looks great in a home
Some parents find it suitable for counter-height or hook-on table use
Footrest exists (unlike many hook-on chairs), which matters for BLW feeding posture
Appreciated by parents who specifically need a hook-on or compact option

Potential Dealbreakers

Footrest is often unreachable for many babies due to fixed seat geometry — the crotch bar prevents knees from bending properly
Tray sits too high, making it hard for babies to see or comfortably reach their food
Straps are difficult to adjust, tend to slip off shoulders, and are hard to clean
Wide leg splay creates a tripping hazard, and Lalo's suction plates reportedly don't stick to the tray

Some users report noticeable vibration which can be irritating for sensitive nipples

Interface for checking usage data or adjusting settings can be slightly confusing
