this chair is so pretty and sturdy in person. You see baby furniture in the stores but this is pretty and sturdy. Now when I look at the children chairs  in certain stores they are not sturdy .  This is not a flimsy chair and its perfect size . She stands on it climbs, lounges on it she seems so comfortable in it. She is almost 2 but I imagine she will have this chair for quite some time. Its very well made. I think it it would hold up to 100 pounds.
