Baby is 8 months old.
Bought the $10 Target and they are just hard plastic and not comfortable.
Looking for any recommendations please?

Thanks for the link. Might need to check it out instore.
What context are you using this in? At home? For travel? Full size high chair? Booster seat? How good is their sitting? (Some kids need more support than others at that age)
Some of the good ones are expensive but you can get them cheaply on Facebook marketplace. Some people are great and have given them a good clean before selling, otherwise DIY.
Folding full size
Peg perego (this is what I had, bought for $80 second hand then sold it for the same later. But I got it at 4months (baby sat very early so I felt I got a lot of use from it), what I loved about it was I could wheel it round the house with me when I was doing jobs and things so it served as more than just a chair for feeding)

If you’re not fussed about wheels something like these ones

Ingenuity booster available at BigW target Kmart (I got this one for $20 second hand)

These are pretty handy for travel but can be used at home

https://www.babybunting.com.au/product/4baby-portable-booste…Realistically some babies don’t use a high chair for all that long and at 8months could be getting pretty mobile soon, so I’d keep it simple and something they can grow into. They probably won’t be too fussed about comfort soon.
Not sure if foldable highchair is legal or safe in Australia
They definitely are legal. As long as all the mechanisms are well designed and engineered a folding high chair is just as safe as a non folding one.

High chairs are designed to be used by babies, no wonder you didn’t think it was comfortable.
