- Baby Carrier for Newborn to Toddler, Ergonomic Backpack Design, Front and Back Facing Options, Blue

My baby loved this carrier! It's so soft and comfortable, and it will grow with the baby. It's a good product for the price too. The only downside is it's too warm for hot weather.

In love with my black velvet baby carrier. After seriously considering investing in a 700$ baby carrier from ARTIPOPPE, a split decision to try this carrier first before such an expensive purchase paid off. The carrier feels weightless with my 9 pound infant while chasing my toddler around because of how much padding and high quality velvet fabric used in the product. Even the buttons are high quality and smooth pretty polished. So grateful for the baby registry discount from Amazon on this purchase as well! Definitely planning on purchasing the baby blue version of this baby carrier for summer! Baby carrier washed just fine in the washing machine but do not dry it obviously. Easy to clean messes on the fabric with Clorox wipes while on the go. Clean sanitary packaging upon order just in case you don’t have the opportunity to wash beforehand. Even the extra material for the straps have a nice organizational band attached too so the excess doesn’t tangle in your long hair! You don’t feel bad about baby’s face rubbing on velvet fabric because of how soft and plushy it is I get jealous.

LOVE LOVE LOVE I was worried about the quality since it’s not a name brand but this is probably just as good as the name brand ones! Super easy to put on by yourself and I am five weeks postpartum and my baby is 9 pounds now and he loves to be put in this. The only thing I will say if your baby has a strong neck like mine and pushes their heads back these buttons will not hold there head up and will unsnap but if that’s not the case then they should hold it just fine! I wore this for two hours in the store and didn’t hurt my back and baby was so comfortable

Buckle up buttercup because here we go! With Two boys under two I have tried all carriers under $100 and here are my thoughts. This carrier is by far the best hybrid (as in semi-structured not a wrap but not a full blown utilitarian carrier) carrier at this price point. Here is why: -Adjustable and offers multiple carrying positions. (forward facing and backward facing and can be a back carrier) -Reduces back pain because of the cross back straps and the width of the waist strap displaces your baby's weight so its not killing your traps! -Stylish Looks like the Mabe and the Artipoppe style of carrier. BUT If you are willing or capable to splurge and get the Mabe carrier or artipoppe I would do so. Only because of two things 1) durability. This carrier is not going to hold up over time. The stitching is just not meant to support my chunk all day everyday like we use it. 2) the mabe and the artipoppe carrier have a structured waist band that helps support your babe and distribute their weight far better than the band on this carrier. ***This carrier is definitely not great for newborns just because it does not keep the baby as close as you would like for there in the beginning and I would go for a wrap in the beginning then switch to this carrier.***

I’ll preface by saying I have the mabe monarch carrier as my regular carrier for my baby (3mo). I wanted something as a backup that was similar/a dupe for this carrier but didn’t want to spend the $130 for another one exactly like it. Enter this carrier. I found it on super sale for $21 so I figured why not. It took ages to ship but once it came in I unboxed it and at first impressions the structure/build of it is identical to the monarch. It has the adjustable head support with snaps, crossing straps across the back (x shape), Velcro adjustable seat for baby, and all the same type of buckles as the monarch. The main difference is the weight of the fabric and the type. This carrier is more velvety and I think might wear a little warmer than the monarch which is more of a linen type fabric. This is also a thinner strap and a much lighter carrier but definitely feels cheaper than the monarch—which it is so honestly that’s okay. The buckles also feel a bit less beefy but seem to do the job. Another difference between the two I will note, it is a little shorter than the monarch on baby. It probably is about an inch shorter on my baby’s back without the head support flipped up but with the head support it’s totally fine. The snaps on the head support are also significantly less sturdy than on the monarch. When my baby arches his back or wiggles aggressively the snaps come undone fairly easily but for a baby with some head control it’s really not a huge deal anyways you just resnap and carry on. I generally just use the support flap to keep my little guy from getting distracted while he’s falling asleep anyways so not a huge deal but something to note. Currently as I write this, my baby is sleeping in the carrier on me as it does its job. Overall I’d say for the price this carrier is worth the buy. I don’t know that I would personally want this INSTEAD of my monarch but as a second one it’s definitely worth it. Additionally if you’re considering the monarch but it’s out of the question price wise I would recommend this one as a very similar option with the caveat that I’m unsure how it will hold up over time. If my opinions change on this over time I will update my review accordingly!

I love this carrier. It is so SOFT, easy to put on, and much better weight distribution on my back! Excellent range of motion, no feeling cramped in this carrier. I prefer more than my $200 ergo baby!!!!

As someone who has tested out hundreds of carriers, this is an ok for the price point option. However, the brand themself is showing images of quite unsafe babywearing practices. Baby's head should never be completely covered and hidden down in the panel. This risks baby's ability to breathe. And as you see, most of the reviewers here are wearing in the way this brand has recommended, completely covering their infant's head. There is also added risk of positional asphyxiation when baby is slumped inside the carrier, which is something else seen frequently here. If you are utilizing a leg's in positioning from newborn, baby it needs to be well supported and their head needs to be free for airflow. With this type of carrier, legs out from birth is an option, it just needs to be adjusted properly and the waistband placed high enough that baby can sit, well supported in the carrier and have their face free to open air. The material is incredibly soft and comfortable. But, it is not going to be a supportive option for a larger baby or child. The stitching seems on par with a lot of other carrier brands. The waistband is incredibly soft and while this can be very nice for not adding unnecessary pressure to the pelvic floor, it isn't going to be as supportive long-term. This doesn't size down as much as most carriers of this type. This can also lead to infant harm for people choosing to continue wearing even though the carrier is too loose. This is not on the carrier itself, but just info for those looking at it and thinking they may be able to get away with a loose-fitting carrier. It adds risk and that should be weighed! I saw someone comparing this to the Artipoppe and saying it's a dupe. It's just a very different carrier and the support is not going to be the same. I would not call this a dupe, but it can be a good option for younger babies when wearing properly!! I would highly recommend looking outside of their manual for babywearing education. They have listed very conflicting and confusing info- like how it's worded with regards to front forward facing, which should be delayed until around 6 months and older, not up to 6 months as they share in the manual. Please do not forward face your newborns, this place is them at significant positional asphyxiation risk! And always turn them in when they get sleepy or if they are falling asleep. They are unable to support themselves and positional asphyxiation becomes a high risk. Image for what you want to look for when wearing a newborn- clear face, panel below mid ear, legs out and in a m positioning.

I want to love this carrier, but there are some major flaws. The price is great, the material is soft but.. 1. The waist will not get tight enough on me (I am 5’3” and 115lbs) I need a good 4 more inches to go in but due to the thicker portion of the waist strap, I cannot make it tighter 2. It is hard to tighten the straps once on 3. The buckles feel flimsy and cheap
