which wood is stronger and less scrach resistant?
I am looking to buy a wooden high chair. However, I know the woods used these days for kids producs are not very good. Which of these woods would be not only stronger, but less likely to get scratched or dinged up?
The 1st high chair is a Badger Basket (http://www.badgerbasket.com/products/pro… •Wood Chair and Tray are made with E-1 Grade Multi-layer Poplar wood
The 2nd high chair is a Primo Baby Deluxe (http://www.primobaby.com/high_chair_02.h… High quality, natural color structurally cold molded Birch wood
My favorate wood is oak but I can't find one in oak (not just oak finished, real oak)

Poplar vs Birch
Birch! It is about 40% denser. Not only does that make for a stronger wood, it also helps to keep the high chair stable because of the increased weight. The increased density also means that on a given surface area, the birch will have far more molecules present, thus increasing the resistance to scratching.
Although "poplar" can refer to many species (Populus sp), they are all generally less dense than average hardwoods. The wood is very bland-looking, light, often used for trim and finish work (similar to pine). A few examples here in North America are trembling aspen, largetooth aspen, and balsam poplar. They are all fast-growing, cheap wood.
Also, "birch" can refer to many species (Betula sp), but they are all generally pretty hard woods. Maybe not as hard as some, but still quite dense. The wood is not as bland as poplar, but not as exciting as oak or maple. Some folks really enjoy the look of yellow birch (Betula allegheniensis) here in eastern North America. Another example is the white birch.
Good luck!
