A child seating product comprising:
- a frame having a first frame portion and a second frame portion spaced apart from the first frame portion;
- a tray detachably coupled to the first frame portion and the second frame portion;
- a tray decoupling mechanism comprising:
- a first latch coupling the tray to the first frame portion;
- a second latch coupling the tray to the second frame portion, wherein, when the tray is in a coupled configuration, the tray extends between the first frame portion and the second frame portion;
- and
- a single button on the tray and positioned offset from a center of the tray that, when pushed, causes the first latch and the second latch to each move in opposite directions relative to each other, allowing the tray to uncouple from the first frame portion and the second frame portion.
