    Love this ring sling. Comfy with the padded shoulder, has a nice zipper pouch for little things, and babe falls asleep immediately. Oct 30, 2023

  • Fabric is very nice, rings are sturdy. Very easy to wash. My favorite part is the padded shoulder to help with the fabric digging. We are still trying to perfect baby wearing in this. Oct 06, 2023

    I used a Maya wrap 9 years ago and LOVED it. However currently I am having trouble with my new one. It doesn’t seem as easy to thread and baby is not comfortable in it. Maybe as baby gets bigger Aug 22, 2023

  • I love a ring sling for all ages! Quick and easy, folds up small, lightweight. May 04, 2023

  • Had a beautiful green one with my middle child and loved it so much! Comfortable for both of us. I really liked the pocket also. May be best part. I was able to fit everything I needed for a diaper ch Apr 22, 2023

  • I love this sling!! Easy to use and great for nursing in as well. Jan 11, 2023

  • Great for really little babies! My daughter loved the swaddled feeling as a newborn, great as a nursing cover, easy to stash in diaper bag. The pocket great to throw phone, keys, wallet, etc. in. Dec 09, 2021

  • Can’t wait to use with my little one. Jul 30, 2021

  • The padded shoulder and zippered pocket make this an obvious win for babywearing! May 20, 2021

  • I know. I know people looove the maya wrap and swear by it. But I find it bulky and super awkward to use. And honestly, it hurts my shoulder! The learning curve is real on this thing. Apr 13, 2021

  • I love this ring sling. We have another color and it may not be as soft as a velvet blanket, but it’s not bad at all. Easy to use once you get the hang of it. Light weight. Still use it with a 2yr old Mar 07, 2021

  • I got this as a gift and loved the pocket, but found other slings I liked better overall. The fabric was a little stiff and scratchy for my liking. Perhaps it would have softened in time with washing Feb 24, 2021

  • Was not worth it! Aug 07, 2020

  • Love this ring sling. Comes in a variety of gorgeous fabrics and is easy to use. There is a learning curve with ring slings, but once you get the hang of it they are a huge lifesaver. Jul 02, 2020

  • It’s surprisingly difficult to use a ring sling with an uncooperative newborn. May 09, 2020

  • I love to ring sling. This saved me with my first. However, it is much harder to maneuver than ring slings made with lighter-weight fabric. The pocket is a great feature, but can also weigh it down. Jan 01, 2020

  • My favorite!! I love the thicker material, so baby feels secure and doesn't slip. The pocket to hold phone/keys/diaper is also a must. I use this for infants and toddlers, and love it! Nov 30, 2019

    I regret this purchase. It was just too much fabric I felt like baby and I were drowning in fabric. It was much easier to use with my toddler but he only wanted to be in it for short periods of time. Sep 11, 2019

  • This is really great wrap I used this for my babies 1 month - 12 months. Aug 08, 2019

    I would not buy this in a do-over. It causes a lot of shoulder pain with even light use and requires too much effort to put on. I barely use it with my second. Jul 30, 2019

  • Uh, it has a pocket! Yes! I love ring slings for ever around the house when babies are new and tiny. It makes things so much better. The pocket is perfect for a phone and/or wallet. Jul 25, 2019

  • This was a great product to have to pop my daughter in to do things around the house. She loved being in it! Jul 22, 2019

  • it was a little more difficult to get the deep seat figured out then a stretchy wrap. As my baby grew bigger I began to favor the maya wrap. It is very sturdy and the padded shoulder is a plus! May 03, 2019

  • My go-to newborn carrier. Still great for quick trips with my toddler. So easy to use and store and take with you. It even has a pocket! Apr 03, 2019

Everyone
  • Q: I have heard that you can breastfeed your baby while using this wrap. Is that true and is it easy to do or uncomfortable for the mother?

    asked by Celeste S. - Mar 23, 2014

  • True! Easy to do once you get the hang of adjusting the wrap. I found the wrap to be super comfortable, even while nursing, but the heavier your baby gets the more weight on one shoulder which can be sore. Make sure to switch it up by wearing the wrap over one and then the other shoulder. Check youtube for videos showing various ways to wear the wrap. Hope this helps!

  • I nurse it in frequently. It may take a few tries to really get the hang of it but it's a wonderful carrier for nursing.

    Laney L. - Mar 23, 2014

  • Sorry you're asking the wrong person - I had this wrap and HATED it. No matter how many times i tried it I couldn't figure it out, and eventually returned it.

    Kristin H. - Mar 24, 2014

  • I really enjoy this wrap, but I've never been able to comfortably breastfeed while my baby is in it. I watched videos, and tried a number of times, and while he was able to eat, it was not a nice latch and made for a lot of pain later.

    Roslyn L. - Mar 24, 2014

  • Sorry, I meant so also say that many friends and fellow baby-wearers have managed to, so it could be that I need more practice!
