what parents are saying
It's not the easiest to put on, but once it is on, It takes a lot of pressure off your shoulders and back. It's very comfortable. Has a metal back piece for extra support too. This also transitions to a back carrier too. (Jun 12, 2013)

I like this but it's not my go-to. My husband likes it as it's a bit more masculine looking. Mar 01, 2024

easy to clean in the wash. Lots of color options. Great that it is flexible for parents to use in more than one way. Oct 02, 2023

This just didn’t work for us. Baby seemed uncomfortable, it’s difficult to put together and switch from forward to back facing Jul 12, 2022

I had this and hated it, it was very uncomfortable and not easy to fit. My son didn’t seem comfortable in it and I felt like his legs hung down which is horrible for their hips. Not recommend to buy. Apr 12, 2020

I would like this carrier to be more comfortable when load bearing. The padding is lacking in girth and the material is stiff and non-breathable. The multiple-positions is a great feature. Jan 12, 2020

Did not like this carrier. Did not have the best back support and shoulder support. Made me tired fast and I couldn't carry my kids for a long time. Sep 18, 2019

My husband and I LOVE this carrier. It's easy to put on (not buckle in the back!) and comfortable to wear all day (structured in the back and front!). Fits out petite daughter well! Apr 11, 2019

We got this in place of the lillebaby! Its way easier to use and great for moms and dads. My husband and I both use this and the baby seems to enjoy it. It’s intuitive and clasps easily. Jul 17, 2018

This looks supportive but it is awful!! Very hard to use and baby hangs from crotch instead of being in frog position (better for hips). It also put a lot of strain on my back. I bought a Tula instead Jul 12, 2018
This carrier was very complicated and was not comfortable for me. In the back carry position, the baby was hanging off my back too much. Jul 05, 2018

I was very disappointed in how uncomfortable this carrier is (for me & for baby). I expect more of Stokke (love their products)! May 13, 2018

So easy to use. My baby loves this carrier. Great back support and it doesn't get too hot Mar 12, 2017

Like that the back support has an added metal piece for support for when you have your baby facing forward. They have different colors to choose from. Jan 26, 2017

Bought it because we are impressed with our other Stokke products, have not used it yet. Love that the baby can be put in the carrier begire you put it on. Dec 14, 2016

Nice that it has multiple carrying positions but it's not easy to get on and baby in. A little cumbersome to use. Jul 07, 2016

This is the most complex, least comfortable carrier I have ever used. May 06, 2016
Great for the back but hard to adjust Apr 27, 2015

Perfect for forward facing carry. Takes a couple times to get used to securing the carrier but then it's a breeze & quick to put on, & is so comfortable! Clicks at your side so I can put it on alone Feb 15, 2015

Great! Sturdy, comfortable, and love the option to wear baby facing in our out (haven't used back yet) Feb 13, 2015

i LOVE that you can put the baby in the backpack position and put it on yourself. great support for the hips too! Sep 26, 2014

This is very versatile, and very comfortable for me. It also has one of the highest weight limits so that you can use it longer than most carriers. Sep 25, 2014

Just starting to use it at 5 months. The baby seems to like it now, but at first was uncomfortable. Seems complicated with a ton of adjustment and baby doesn't sit like it does in the picture. Jun 30, 2014
We love our Stokke; there are a number of carrier options! Learning how to put it on the first time was overwhelming, but once I did it for the first time in each direction, it was really quite easy. May 17, 2014

He falls right asleep in it! Way better for my back than a cute sling. May 14, 2014

Works for a wide variety of sized people. The only carrier both my husband and I can wear. Comfy for a long period of time. A bit pricy but well worth it. Mar 06, 2014

A little tricky to put on the 1st (five) few times but very comfy and looking forward to using the backpack feature once baby is a little older. Jan 31, 2014

So comfortable, glad we found this one after trying a few previously, my almost 2 y old fits in it great and loves being on my back everywhere we go (hiking, zoo). The metal rod for back support is amazing and helps so much. Nov 29, 2013
This carrier is really comfortable and I love that it has three carry positions (front facing in, front facing out and back). The one drawback: it is a little complicated to put on the 1st few times. Nov 22, 2013
