Great affordable infant to toddler carrier
We were looking for an affordable carrier that we can use with our 27lb toddler and this was it! We found this to be really comfortable for carrying him on my back. The straps are really adjustable for both me and my spouse and I can definitely see this fitting a wide range of sizes Incase you’re petite or on the larger side. I wish I had gotten this carrier earlier but I will definitely be using this with our next child. The front of the carrier has a sunshade cover which I could see being really beneficial for an infant. The cover didn’t fit over our toddler’s head since he’s a little too big for that but I don’t think he would have enjoyed it anyway but it’s perfect for an infant. My son definitely felt way lighter being carried on my back that being carried in the front. Great carrier!

Great for Florida
Living in Florida, as much as I love my little nugget, I couldn't wear him for more than 5 minutes without feeling like someone dumped a 20 lb bag of hot potatoes down my shirt. I looked at the Lille all weather but still got super hot really fast. Another problem for me is height, at 5'2 most carriers put the baby's head right in front of my face. When I first put everything on (tight) baby was high, but I loosened the waist to rest closer to my hipbones and it worked great.Today I wore my lil guy twice (90 degree heat)! We went to the park to chase after big brother and to the farmer's market. Both instances buckeroo seemed really happy (he slept the whole time at the market).He is 11 weeks and 16 lbs so we used the front carry with the H back. It slipped on really easily and the straps are really easy to adjust while baby is attached. I left the head support down while we were playing, and put it up for his nap. We also tried the hood while I walked from the parking lot and it covered his whole head nicely.I did put a muslin between any exposed skin to minimize our heat transfer and wick away moisture.My only "complaint" is the buckles. They seem really strong and well made, but the waist buckle is impossible for me to undo one handed (it's also on the left side). I have to remove baby and get him situated before I can remove the carrier. This is possibly by design, but as I am also running after a 2 year old anything I can do single handed is a bonus.So far though, I'm really thrilled and think that being able to wear the baby is going to be a game changer in our house.

Comfortable yet complicated
I got a different carrier as a gift and my son hated it. He’s 2 months and almost a week old so he is in the “I need to be handled 24/7 or I will scream my lungs out” stage so I needed a carrier that worked for us.I saw this the other day and read the reviews, saw it was on sale, and said why not?When the box first arrived I had to make sure I ordered the actual carrier and not an accessory because the box was small.The support for his butt and legs are much better than my previous carrier. He’s slightly cranky when he’s initially put in it but when I started walking around he calmed down. It’s very comfortable, shoulder straps are a little bulky but they help support without pain.I wish the manual was a little more understandable. I’m still trying to figure out how to position him correctly in the forward facing. The manual thought it was a brilliant idea to not add eyeballs to the models so I don’t know if the kid is facing forward or not.My other issue is the lower back support clip is on the left side of my body. I’m right handed so it’s difficult to unclip myself alone. I need the help of my 7 year old to get me out. These clips also have the middle button, like a kid proof lock, so you have the press the button and the clips at the same time to release. Makes sense but you may need an extra pair of hands to strap you completely out of this contraption.I’m still learning how to use this puzzle of a carrier but hopefully I can find some videos to teach me. Money well spent for now.

Love it!
My husband bought this for my 10 month old son (currently 25 pounds at 12 months) when we went to Washington D.C. and would highly recommend for anyone traveling with a little one. He would get tired of the stroller and would want to be held, there were also times where I wanted him up close with me and not in the stroller. He was very happy and comfortable in this. I have only used the frontal position, facing me so far, I have yet to try any of the other 3 - but its a great product and he loves it. Its also very comfortable with the wide straps and the strap that goes across the lumbar. My husband who is 6'3" 250 pounds and I who am 5'3" 140 pounds, can both wear this - so it also has a wide range as far as who can use.

Good price, not the best quality. Rough material and hard to use without help
This is a perfectly good baby carrier. It’s ergonomic as far as I can tell and supports baby really well. But I ultimately went with the Ergobaby for a few reasons:1) the fabric is not very soft. It feels like bad quality and I would not use it unless my little one has on long sleeves. It’s rubbed his skin raw!2) it’s hard to use if you’re by yourself. The top strap that goes across behind your shoulders is almost impossible to buckle and un-buckle unless you have someone helping you.It’s much cheaper than comparable carriers, but I use a baby carrier a lot and it just didn’t make the cut.

Recommend it
My husband and I can both comfortably wear it. My son is 4 months now and my daughter is two and half. I’ve tried the carrier with my 2 kids. It works for both. The fabric is breathable, so I can use it in summer also. After receiving the item, I use it every day. My son wants me to hold him all the time. But I need take care my daughter and do things around house. When my son wakes up, I put him in front of me, my son feels relaxed and comfortable in it and my hand is free so I can do other things. I love it and highly recommend it!

Not for me.
I'm 5'2" and 107lbs and my son is 2months old weighing 11.5lbs.The carrier seems too big for me. I cant tighten it enough for my son to be secure when I wear him. It's lose on the waist area so he tends to sink down and he doesn't feel comfortable in it until I put a blanket that would serve as a cushion for his butt and thighs.I'm gonna try a different carrier.
