Mamas & Papas Snug chair

I’m tossing up whether to buy the Mamas & Papas Snug chair. What is your experience with it? Is it worth it? Do you wish you’d bought the more expensive Bug chair instead of the Snug chair? We already have a high chair, but my little one loves sitting up to play so the activity tray that comes with this chair looks like a bonus. The high chair is also heavy, I’d like something I can easily move around the place so my little boy can be in eyesight when I’m in the kitchen, shower, etc. This would also fit on the kitchen counter for meals there where the high chair is a bit too low. This chair seems perfect but expensive when we already have a high chair and a play gym.

I have the Bug Chair and it's been amazing - for feeding and for playing. Sorry I don't have the Snug to compare! We haven't needed a high chair at all thanks to it x

It’s great. We use it for feeding and to pop LO in to play while I eat/ get a few things done in the kitchen

I also wasn’t too sure if it was worth it but I found a second hand one on Vinted in great condition for a fraction of the price and my LG absolutely loves it. It is a way for her to practice sitting by herself and the fact that it can attach to a chair makes it great because she can sit at the table with us. She loves the tray too and will definitely be using it when we start solids later this month and it can be taken with if we go to friends who may not have a high chair etc…

Definately worth it we use it all the time with and without the tray and its so comfortable, it may be worth looking on marketplace ive seen a few go for £10 even free

We got lent this by a friend and our little girl absolutely loves it. She loves sitting in it and playing with the toys on top

My Boy doesn’t like it at all, gets annoyed after 5min 😞

We have this - it's great! It gets a lot of stick for not being the best for their hips but I think as long as you only use for short periods that's ok. It's not safe for eating in though as the position it puts them in means they can't get in the right position to clear their airway if they need. But there is a booster seat version of this (think it's called the Bug but not sure) that is safe for eating.

We have it and rarely use it! I much prefer my highchair. It’s height is adjustable so can even sit him in that and lower to our height if we’re sitting on the couch or round the table x

I have this and my LG absolutely loves it!She’s developed so many fine motor skills by playing with the toys on the top. We have a high chair as well.

We also have the Bug chair. He likes it for feeds but doesn’t really like to just sit in it. He loves to lounge so I don’t know if it’s too upright.

I wish I had the bug instead! So I could use it as a portable seat for going to houses etc. I'm now gna buy something other than using the snug. I only really like the snug for entertaining him quickly with the tray toy

Look on Facebook marketplace! I got mine off there for about £15

@Rebecca thank you! I wasn’t aware of that difference between the two seats. From a quick glance the shape of the seats just looked the same.

@Sophie thanks for this! I don’t want to go with the cheaper option and regret it. We do want to do a bit of local travel so that’s definitely a consideration.

We have it and my little boy will only tolerate it for a few minutes at a time. The tray also comes off quite easily. We hardly use it

I recommend the Bug one instead as it can be used up until they’re 3 years old as it straps onto chair and is a booster seat 🙌🏻 my baby really likes it 💯

I originally got this for my son who is now 10. I kept it and am now using it again for my 5.5 month daughter. It has lasted so well as it is sturdy and well made. It is usable for ages as the coloured insert comes out to make it bigger as they grow. I use it exactly as you said - move it around the house to keep her contained and entertained around the house where I need it

@Heather yeah it's hard to tell! There's a graphic I've seen that shows the difference (of other similar seats too). I'll see if I can find it.

We use ours and our little one loves it!! I use it to pop him In next to me whilst I prepare my older daughters meals and he plays/ has started weaning in that as it’s more supportive than his high chair x

Do it 👏🏼 but look on Facebook market place or other second hand places first as they’ll only use it for maybe a month or 2!

@Kirsty just came across this post looking up this chair as I want to use it for feeding. I remember seeing somewhere months ago that someone was using this for feeding and the tray was too small and couldn’t find baby plates etc that actually fit on it. Have you got any weaning sets recommendations ? X
