My wife and I have multiple carriers. Moby Wraps, Baby Bjorn, Infantino carriers and a few random other types. I have a bad back and am limited to holding my 7 month old daughter to 5-20 minutes at a time before the burning is too much to tolerate. In comes this seat. Holy friggin moly!! We love it!! I can hold my daughter for hours with this carrier. At first the extra straps seemed useless and I can definitely think of a couple better ways to have them attached and hold the carrier better but none the less they work and once you get the hang of it you can even go hands free. Our daughter was unable to sit unassisted when we first got this carrier and so having a hand on her was mostly necessary but now she can sit on her own and knows not to lean forward. Most of the time we wife and I skip using the extra straps and just use the base. We have also used this carrier a hundred times as a mobile diaper bag. It's compartment is large enough for a thing of wipes, a couple chuck pads, a couple diapers and a spare outfit. Then we usually use the cup holder part to put her teethers on their leashes. It works fantastic!! Seriously this thing is tremendous!! My only complaint is that if you use the strap that goes around your child you need to take extreme care not to allow them to slip off the seat or the part around the child will slide up and catch at their arms. It almost happened to me once. I bent over to grab something even with a hand on my daughter and she wiggled just right and slid off the seat. Had my hand not been there I'm sure she would have not been happy. The seat works extremely well though at being non slip. I really and truly love this thing! Also, my wife and I aren't small people. I am 6'4" 300lbs with enough love handles to split amongst several pregnant women lol the velcro on the waist strap does not reach the other side to velcro, BUT the buckle reaches and I can use this despite wearing a size 42. Also, I can still wear this carrier, just off to the side slightly and still carry Appendix. It's truly amazing! I am in no way saying any of this from anything but my own experience with a product I randomly bought off Amazon loo Read more

This is a wonderful idea. But didn't work for us. Pros: The material seemed to be good quality and durable. It was easy to put together. Why I returned: It was to uncomfortable. I'm appx.30 inches where the thick of the band rest. I had it on the tightest setting there as well as the shoulder strap to help take weight off of the “seat” when my little one was strapped in. With that said, I personally couldn't keep the straps from digging into my LOs legs and my shoulder. When we tried it on my LO had marks on the thighs from the straps and buckles that rest near the legs within 2mins of wearing it. My LO is in the 99% for weight and height so when sitting on the “seat” I could not see when the “seat” was directly in front of my naval. Without the straps being on the tightest settings it was unsteady and cause an imbalance forcing myself to awkwardly lean back. I gave it 3/5 because I feel like it I had a 20lb petite baby this would be comfortable to use although I wish it was more of a back pack style strap than one shoulder for comfort and better posture positioning.

If you have a Velcro baby, you need this. Life/back saver! Read more

This is my favorite thing I’ve ever bought on Amazon. I am able to carry my grandson with ease, even at 30 pounds, without any discomfort at all. It is a game changer, for sure. It completely supports all his weight and all I have to do is make sure he doesn’t fall off. No more aching arms, shoulders, and back. I’ve had it awhile and it is holding up very well. Strangers comment positively on it almost every time I use it in public. The central pouch has a nice capacity to fit some travel wipes and a few diapers. Plus a snack if desired. Read more

I've tried the expensive brand and this off brand and you can definitely tell the difference. The popular brand is more comfortable and the quality is better. It is also built to be more convenient. This one does its job and the price is reasonable. I like that this have a sling around the baby but I use it to help balance weight with my shoulder. I dont use it to protect baby as it doesn't seem stable. If you use the sling over the shoulder, it does put more weight on your shoulder making it uncomfortable so it's better to just not use the sling. The seat does dig into my pelvic, idk if it's because I'm more petite. The popular brand one also dig into my pelvic as well. I just have to make adjustments to void it digging. The pockets are ok but not as good as the popular brand. I didn't like that the big pocket under the seat was shared with the plastic seat. So when you're trying to grab something you'll end up touching the plastic seat as well. In the poplar brand, the seat is separate. Because I am petite both the popular brand and this one, I had to tighten it to the end of the velcro and even then, it was still a little loose. Thr velcro on this one is pretty sturdy but the way it was designed isn't as great as the popular brand. Overall, it is convenient and does its job at relieving some weight off your arms but not all. You'll still have to use some strength to keep it up so it doesn't droop down. It's not the best but it works if you're on a budget so get it as soon as you can. My daughter is 2 yrs old and I just got it. She will out grow it soon. If my daughter was a newborn or still very young, I would splurge and get the popular brand because it definitely is better especially if you do a lot of walking or traveling. Read more

Long story short, if you are looking for a carrier for a baby to toddler, this is by far the best I've used. This is the second product I ordered. The first one was a different brand with similar looking, but didn't have the large packet under the seat (the seat was solid) and had no shoulder strap. The first one tremendously saved my back and relieved the pain when carrying my baby around. So when it was a little worn and my now toddler still wants to hop on me when going out, I started looking. Knowing what works well as a carrier, I was super excited when seeing this product. The carrier itself frees your hand (one hand, you still need to hug your baby with one hand since there is no bucket to tie the baby on you) and instantly relieves the tension and weight on your back. I can carry my almost 40 pounder to walk for a mile without problems, v.s. without it, I have to put the toddler down to rest my back every couple of blocks. This product is an upgrade to me because of the large pocket under the seat. A toddler typically needs less stuff than a baby, so I have been using a tiny toddler backpack as the diaper bag for dining out and quick trips. But holding an extra bag still is not convenient, since I would like to leave my hands free to chase the little one as needed. Now, instead of hauling a diaper bag, I can put 2-3 pull-ups, a slim wipe pack, a juice box, and some snacks in, and I don't feel much extra weight on my waist. I havn't used the strap because the carrier works fine without it. I think for heavier toddlers or longer walk, the strap will help hold the weight better. We are planning on a long flight trip. My plan is to use this carrier as my purse and to carry a backpack as the diaper bag with all random stuff needed on the plane. Whoever designed this--Thank You! Read more

It does not worth the money because it does not actually support my back while carrying my baby. By using it for 10 minutes, it will hurt the area underneath the baby seat. It does not just hurt a little. Read more

I got this carrier because it was more affordable and it feels comfortable, the big front pocket its pretty easy to access compared to the big brand one 👀. My baby is 24lbs and the seat doesn’t fold down and feels comfortable against my body. It saved my back! My husband and I love it, I’m plus size and he’s not, but works great for both of us, I just got the extender thing for myself. It’s literally the only carrier my baby likes too, she doesn’t like feeling trap like with the baby wraps and such. My baby is a Velcro babe and wants to be in ur arms all the time, so we use this carrier every day, at home and when we go out. Do yourself a favor and just get it 🫶 Read more
