Question 1

For a hot climate is the cool mesh really that much better? I got the Omni before the cool mesh came out and now feel regret :(

Accepted Answer

We live in Texas and I used this carrier this weekend (80s-mid 90s) and it was a sweaty mess for both of us. I ended up ditching the carrier in the truck and just carrying her on my hip. I’ll let you know when the weather is in the 70s if it’s any better :/ Super comfortable though, she did nap in it when we ducked into an air conditioned shop. The cross strap carry I find distributes the weight the best.

Question 2

How do I know if the Ergobaby carrier I am buying is real and not a counterfeit?

Accepted Answer

This is the baby carrier I bought. I didn't know they made counterfeit ergobaby carriers. Mine can with the correct box and all warranty paperwork. If you buy a fake anything the box is usually a huge way to tell. But also if the materials look cheap or it's not well made that's also a huge indicator. I can tell you this seller is selling real ergobaby products and mine lasted well over a year with everyday use.

Question 3

Advice on color choice?  I cant decide.  Worried grey color may stain. Black shows lint and spit up?  Black hotter in summertime?  Help me choose.

Accepted Answer

It's easy to wash.  Don't worry about stains. I recommend a big garment bag to keep it from flailing everywhere.  Get the grey, stays cooler in the hot car and it goes with more clothes without instantly clashing.  We love ours.  I also recommend getting the spit guards for the face area.  Babies drool.   Saves having to wash it after a long outing. Cheers!

Question 4

Hi there - does this model need the infant insert for babies under 12lbs? Reading up on it - and doesnt seem so....
