We originally used a stretchy wrap carrier which we adored, but as baby got bigger our backs got sorer and we went in search of a new love. We went to a local shop to try a few different carriers on as we want to invest in a good quality carrier - we tried out most of the popular models and we just fell in love with this one! It’s very easy to use compared to most of the other models. The wide, padded straps along with the waist strap make it so comfortable to wear. The straps are easy to adjust and we had no complaints of back pain even after extended baby wearing sessions. Being able to easily change baby from forward facing to inward facing is lovely! It gives her the chance to get in some sight seeing before having a nice cuddle and a nap. She loves being so close to us and is very settled when out and about. I’ve even taken to wearing her around the house to get my housework done! It’s not a breastfeeding friendly carrier - but this was something we were aware of before purchase and the comfort, ease of use and quality of this sling was, for us, worth the trade off! - Strengths:

I love this carrier. It has good thick straps which makes it comfortable to wear.
The clips are very secure.
Baby can face either way as the back folds down so baby can forward face. - Strengths:

Purchased because we were going on holiday and we are a very active family.
This carrier is so comfortable.
It is so easy to put on, no help needed.
Supports baby brilliantly.
Been using this carrier since my daughter was 12 weeks old and still use now at just over 7 months.
The carrier grows with baby.
We go on lots of walks and this is perfect.
The straps support my back.
Defo a product I will recommend

We got this as a gift and initially felt the design was mind blowing!! It took one read and two uses to realise this was not the case! Easy to get on and get baby in and out.. we used this at times were she wouldn’t settle and now it’s used when we’re out with the dog and for her to look round and explore the world with the security of me behind her! The design ensures baby’s legs are correct too! Faultless!! X - Strengths:

We LOVE this carrier. I use it for walking the dog, doing the housework, going to exercise classes you name it we can do it. He falls asleep in it and can stay asleep through the walk. It’s easy to use and looks great too. It has an extra part that make this suitable for newborns which we found very helpful. I would definitely recommend this product. - Strengths:

I loved this sling, we tried quiet a few and bought a few too, they did not compare to this. It was perfect from birth and as baby got bigger we loved you could wear it on the back. My husband is 6ft4 and he found this very comfortable to wear unlike other carriers. It’s also long lasting we bought ours 5 years ago and have passed it around friends and family and is still in use now. - Strengths:

I’ll start off by saying I won the competition to try this product for free in order to leave a review. I was SOOOO excited! Having looked at the price of it, there is not a single chance that I would be forking out that amount of money on this product, as lovely as it is. To be fair, having used the product, you can see why it’s expensive, so if it’s going to be something that you use a lot so need it to be good quality & comfortable, then you might be willing to pay that price, but I must just be a Scrooge.
The product itself is lovely, you can tell it’s really strong & durable & that your baby is definitely going to be secure in it. It feels strong, the clips feel strong, not at all flimsy & the material is soft & foamy so really comfortable to wear for both baby & parent! We just went on holiday to Center Parcs, first family holiday that was, & I thought “wow! What better time to test this product out!” So we took it with us... now, I don’t know if I’m just dumb or impatient or maybe just a perfect mixture of both, but for love nor money could I work out how to put the bloody thing on. Reading the instructions (there is also an instruction flap bit on the actual product which is really rather clever so you don’t have to take the instructions out with you which is a book which gives The Hobbit a run for its money, although that’s only because it’s printed in every single language spoken on the planet Earth), i gave up. My boyfriend persevered & managed to figure it out although his face didn’t really fill me with confidence as he put it on & tried to do the clips up. We got there eventually & got baby in, he seemed to like it, he wasn’t crying anyway so that’s always a plus right?
It was comfortable to wear, I would never have been able to have got it on myself, my boyfriend had to help me & tighten it once it was on & then he tried it on & needed me to tighten it for him to get it to be comfortable.
Now, this is where I was dumb. I’ve been reading the reviews on here & everyone was saying how great it is & im like okay, no one else has had a problem. It came with a zip at the bottom which you can open either side, which i later found out was to make room for babies legs. Well, I didn’t know this & I cut it off with scissors, with great difficulty might I add. Probably because it’s not meant to actually be cut off. (See pictures) So please people, if you’re dumb like me, don’t ruin it by cutting the thread although if it wasn’t meant to be cut, why make it bright red thread?! It was just asking to be removed. The product still works without it so I’m glad I didn’t completely destroy it before even trying it...
So, to conclude, it’s a brilliant product, especially if you’ve just come into some money. Comfortable to wear & makes life easier if you’re in a busy place where the buggy wouldn’t be ideal. It would be better, for me, if it were easier to get on, & if the thread wasn’t a stupid colour but my boyfriend loves it! - Strengths:

Price is a bit steep however, it is very comfortable to wear. Extremely easy to put on and off and adjust as well as putting baby in and out of. Lovely colour as I have the denim shade which I love. Seems very secure and my baby loves being able to look about and see what’s going on. Would definitely recommend buying one. Absolutely love it!!! - Strengths:

I got this as part of a product test via consobaby. I would pay the money for this carrier. It is fantastic. £95 is a great price. My son is 8 months old and a very inquisitive little chap so he loves facing outward or when he’s tired snuggling into mama. Both ways he’s super comfy. It’s a gorgeous soft material and designed so well, it’s very comfortable for both him and me. Extremely easy to clip baby in and to take off. He is very secure and snug. It looks a lot nicer than other carriers I’ve seen/used. Highly recommend recommend. - Strengths:

I love this baby carrier bag. It’s very comfortable and I feel that the baby is safer than in a sling or in other kind of carriers. On top of that it is ergonomic, which guarantees that the baby is in the right posture for as long as you use it. I also like how easy it’s to wash in washing machine and how quick it dries. Other positive thing is the design and the choice of colours you have. For all the reasons mentioned I would definitely recommend this carrier bag. - Strengths:

Great baby carrier. My baby is quite a nosey one, loves looking around when we are walking so I brought this and I love it. It is comfortable for both me, my partner and my baby. It feels really secure and strong. I have no concerns carrying my baby in this and she loves it. Can look around everywhere without any hassle. Very much recommend this! - Strengths:

This baby carrier is exactly what you need if you are wanting peace of mind that your bundle of joy will be both comfortable and safe in the carrier. I was initially going to go with one of the cheaper brands to save money but I am so glad that I decided to loosen the purse strings because I do not think I would have purchased a better carrier. The carrier itself promotes carrying your baby while ensuring that your back isn't hugely affected by the baby's weight, the waist strap is what makes me so confident in the carrier, the fact that there is that extra bit of support really makes me comfortable putting my son into it and strolling down the high street, infant it is so secure that I often unstrap one side and allow him to have one side unstrapped, with most carriers the baby would then begin to lean to one side however he doesn't, it makes no difference to the position of the baby. I am honestly very impressed! - Strengths:

I have had this carrier and the miracle, i thought i was upgrading and i really wasn't. I mainly use mine to pop into the shops or short walks so it's not too bad but all the weight is on your shoulders and not distributed at all.
My little chap seems very comfortable in it and i have never had any concerns on that front, it's purely my comfort. It's really well made, i like the two different heights for newborns and babies. It's got a satin finish on the inside of the waist strap so it never catches on any of my clothing and it's well padded.
Would defy recommend to try before you buy. - Strengths:

Absolutely love this carrier, I have tried multiple other brands, and this is by far my favourite. We have a family of all shapes and sizes and we can adjust the fittings in no time. When the baby is sleeping, you can easily remove them without having to fight your way through straps as there are multiple clips.
Initially my baby wasn't so keen on inward facing, but once I'd got the settings correct he happily slept. A great tip I was told is to adjust the babies hips after placing them in so they are sitting comfortably and ensure you can kiss the top of their head when in the carrier.
Now he is forward facing he loves it even more and feels like he's involved with the whole family rather than being in his pram.
I've used this carrier to do house work, shopping and out and about - couldn't recommend it more!! - Strengths:

I absolutely loved this carrier. We tried a couple in the past with our eldest son and didn't like them but thought we would try again and this was a game changer. It is so easy to strap baby in and adjust the straps. This has been perfect for all the long walks we do and the simple school run walks. He has been forward facing, rear facing and on my back with no problem at all.
It's only now I'm starting to have an issue. My son is 8 months old and 23lbs. There is a lot of weight pulling at my shoulders and after an hour it is starting to hurt. This has put me off wearing it for long periods of time now - Strengths:

We purchased this as a second carrier when we forgot to bring our Ergobaby on holiday.
It is superior to the ergobaby in many ways - clips are super easy to use and there is no struggle to do them up when you are on your own. Also there is no newborn insert needed. Because of this I preferred to use the babybjorn when my baby was an infant.
However as soon as he got older and heavier it became really uncomfortable to use, and I felt like my hips were not bearing any of the weight no matter how I adjusted it. My back ached everytime I wore it. I switched back to the ergobaby and straight away I could feel the difference - more weight was being carried on my hips. So I started using it again - however it is a massive struggle to do up the back clip each time - I really hate this part of the design.
Note that my husband actually prefers the bjorn, I think this is because it is less of an issue for him to carry more weight in his shoulders. He loves the fact that it is so easy to put on and off.
I wish that the two carriers could be meshed together! - Strengths:

We bought this carrier to use on our trips abroad with our little one. First we had to wait for her to be big enough to use it (it has a minimum weight of 3.5kg), once she was bigger she loved it. We loved the easy set up, no complicated reaching around to do up buckles, it was easy enough to fit both myself and my husband within the same day. As my daughter has grown we have gone from the newborn position to back and front carrying. There are no extra newborn inserts to buy and she is always so comfy. Even falling asleep in it so so many times! - Strengths:

This high quality baby carrier is easily one of the best baby equipment I have ever had! Excellent quality takes the comfort to the next level. I have had three different carriers which I struggled to put on with a very wriggly baby but BabyBjorn has solved all our problems. All the straps are fuss free and an ideal solution for fussy babies. It allows me to go hands free and get the house work done alongside keeping the baby happy and content.
This carrier can be used from infancy till toddler hood which is an added bonus. It looks posh and the straps are very sturdy!
This product is easily a life saver especially for the newborn phase when babies require extra cuddles and snuggles. It is comfortable enough to wear for long periods. An excellent product which I highly recommend to all parents!!

I got this when my little boy was 6.5 months old, I only wish I had got it sooner. I have tried a few baby carriers and he hasn’t really gotten on with them. As soon as I put him on this he loved it, the manual is very informative and easy to follow. I love that you can use this is various positions,.
1. Baby facing you
2. baby facing out
3. Hip carry
4. Back carry
One of the most comforting and reassuring things for me was that one the carrier is on there is a structured piece that baby sits in, they don’t just sit against the waist belt. This carrier is really easy to use if you are on your own, because you put the carrier on so that it is in position before you put baby in. There is no having to put it on and then clip the straps together with baby in situe, I found this reassuring. The shoulder straps are wide & well padded making it more comfortable to wear. It is so easy to use I really love this baby carrier. I feel that although it isn’t the cheapest it is the best value. My little one loves being able to face out and see the world when we walk along. Much quicker and easier than getting the pushchair all ready and great if you are going somewhere with little space for buggies.
I found the straps really easy to tighten and the fit is snug. This can be used from newborn without having to purchase extra inserts which is really good. This baby carrier is very versatile and it is easy to change positions on your own safely and securely. - Strengths:

This is a really good product...saves time getting the pushchair etc ready. It’s manual is very informative and explains well how to use it and adjust every strap. My little girl was very comfy in it and felt secure.
The clips to attach it altogether once the child is in it are very strong and very easy to use. This is a very good quality baby carrier and will last a very long time with the different options of how to use it (on the front or back). - Strengths:
