what parents are saying
I actually just bought the 4g but more or less the same thing. I got this in the mail yesterday and have used it twice so far. I like that this one hubby can wear too (Aug 21, 2014)

This was given to me as a hand me down and I've used it more than any other carrier. Not over complicated and great to keep in the car. Only downside is that I can't get the baby on my back by myself. Mar 10, 2023

Comfortable and not hot to wear. My favorite aspect is how the hood rolls up into a zippered pouch and doubles as a neck support when not in use. May 20, 2021

I liked this carrier alot aesthetically, and it was great for shorter outings but not my preferred for longer carry times. Nov 12, 2020

I enjoyed this carrier when my son was small and it fit my body well (petite person). The lack of a required insert for infants was also super helpful. Jul 31, 2020

Carried my 3 month old in this for 10 days in Paris, walking miles and miles. She slept almost the whole time. So easy to use, no crazy features. Still use it at a year old with her on my back. May 12, 2020

THE. BEST. Fit me at 5' and my husband 6'2 very comfortably. Baby loved it, and was very happy even when in it for long periods of time! May 27, 2019

I actually own 2 of these. Great for even an otlder child also you can put a newborn without an infant insert which was nice and it was easy to put on. It distribute the weight nicely. Jan 31, 2019

This is the carrier my husband uses as I prefer my moby. He says its not the most comfortable thing in the world but we are planning on using it more as the baby ages. Mar 24, 2018

We have gotten tons of use out of this. It has been great since LO was just a few days old up until she was 2 and I could still use it with her on my back. Bought one for a friend she loves it too! Dec 01, 2017

I have the 4G version. It was great when my child was less than 20 lbs, but started hurting my back later. I wish I had bought a Tula Nov 08, 2017

Fits easily in my diaper bag, baby rides in comfort with proper support that makes it easy on my back for front and back carry. Wish child had the option to forward face in this. Oct 24, 2017

The carrier is just fine and love that it doesn't need any infant inserts. I get the most use from this early on but seems a bit too tight and rigid in there when kids start moving more. Oct 19, 2017

I like that this comes with a newborn insert, is at a good price point, and has a high back for neck support. My husband uses this as his carrier and likes it a lot. Oct 18, 2017

love this carrier! I started using it when my daughter was about 6 months old and used it well into her toddler years. Its great for front of back carrying and very trim. Highly recommend this carrier Sep 23, 2017

Good quality ergonomic carrier. It's comfortable for mom and babe. I just prefer another brand of soft structured carrier over this one that is more comfortable to me personally. Mar 11, 2017

My daughter didn't like having her view so obstructed by all the material, and the fabric rubbed the back of her thighs until she got a rash. It was really easy to put on, though. Feb 03, 2017

The BEST carrier for my back! Aug 18, 2016
It's lightweight and more breathable than a wrap, but still holds my little baby close. Aug 17, 2016

Great for taller kids. The stirrups are lovely. I was so sad when my first kids finally grew out of it! Great for travel too. Apr 16, 2016

Very comfortable. I loved that the newborn seat came with the carrier instead of buying it separate. My son loves to go shopping in the carrier. Really easy to put on and adjusts easily Jan 25, 2016

I ordered and tried a bunch of SSCs before settling on this one. Comfortable for both my husband (6'7") and me; baby is relatively content. Love the moveable clasp in the back! Pretty color, too! Oct 07, 2015

GET THIS! Seriously, love this carrier. Comfy, great patterns, and no infant insert necessary. It's easy to adjust, and put the child in. Insanely comfortable. New 4G version is out as well. Love it!! Jul 28, 2015

Excellent carrier. Needs extra support for small infant but holds larger child well. I used for special needs daughter until age 6. Comfortable for mom and child. Washes well. Buckles strong. May 24, 2017

Love carrying my baby & toddler around in this! It's comfortable to wear, has a diaper bag snap strap so it won't fall off your shoulder and you won't need to buy an infant insert with this carrier! Oct 12, 2016

I love it. It is not as supportive as a Tula, but has a wider seat than an Ergo. It also has foot straps. I wish it had pockets. Aug 20, 2014
- Margaret M.

This was a great find! Easy to adjust and supports the weight on my back. The shoulder snap really holds a bag or purse well. We travel with it and use when the buggy doesn't navigate as well. Jul 29, 2014
