The tray is one piece of plastic with no doo-dads to catch dirt. The edges of the tray are raised, so spills don't end up on the floor. The tray is hinged in a clever way so that it opens from one side and rests at the side of the chair for entry and exit. This is very convenient once a kid can climb in and out her/himself. Having to lift a kid in all the time can be tireing and tiresome. Also, the tray is removable and the bare chair can be used at a table of normal height when the kid is three-ish. This eliminates the need for booster seats. Without a tray it's just a higher chair, by about 4 inches. Then you can keep using it till the child is really comfortable in an adult sized chair.(or until the upholstery wears out, although you can, and I did, buy replacement cushions) --
