The BEST carrier for older infants and toddlers! For reference my husband and myself are 5'10 and around 200 pounds. We have used baby carriers since I baby was first born. We have used several cloth wraps and tried multiple structured carriers. Once our son was 7 months we were in search of a daily structured carrier that was fast to put on and could be used till our son was well into toddlerhood. This carrier is very fast to put on and secure baby into. It's solid yet lightweight,baby doesn't overheat in high heat temperatures (we live in desert so summers are 105-115), easy to clean, fits our tall frames, easily adjusts between my body shape and my husbands fast, easily adjust from inward facing to outward facing without needing to remove carrier, and comfortable even after wearing in theme park all day or while traveling. Honestly, this is the easiest carrier to use. I throw it over me like I'm putting on a sweatshirt, clip the waist clip, put baby on chest and with one hand on baby I use the other to clip the four pieces...done! He's secure, comfy, and I'm quickly on my way into the store etc. I recommend this carrier to everyone looking for an easy to use structured carrier. My son is now 18 months old and I still put him in this multiple times per week. He loves being in it and I love how fast it is. I've tried other structured carriers and have sold them or returned most of them. None of the other brands compare to the ease of use baby Bjorne has :) worth every single penny. Skip the brands popular on YouTube and Instagram and buy this carrier.... sturdy, not bulky when worn, design that men will like, doesn't make baby too hot, fits tall bodies and curvier figures, easily changed from one parent to another or from inward to outward facing and simple to keep clean!

Before I had a child I always thought these things looked nuts on people. I only used mine a handful of times with my first but utilized it more with my second because I only have two hands and sometimes you need to be like an octopus and have eight when you have multiple children. I found this carrier to be very comfortable though it did cause my back to ache if I wore a child in it for a prolonged period of time. I also found it hard to get in and out of without help from another adult which does not always go when you are a stay at home mom! I did have a couple of friends who had other carriers and tried their on as well before purchasing this one. The buckles on it where easy to use and to adjust even with baby in the carrier. I also figured out with a little practice how to get in and out of it by myself though if help was around I took it just because it was quicker and easier. As far as carriers go I think this one is a good one and both of my girls loved being in because it kept them close to me while I did anything else that needed to get done or even for walks on a pretty day! Safety no longer in use because baby is older but I was always afraid that if I was leaning over just a bit she would fall out...also wasn't fond of the leg straps Baby's Comfort I think she liked being close to me but it made us both very HOT Parents' Comfort HOT HOT HOT Ease of Use Always felt like an octopus putting it on and more hands would have helped lots Design leg straps and risk of her falling out made me not use it too much Durability still in good shape but we didn't use it all that much either

The Baby Bjorn carrier is appealing to parents because it allows you to have your baby close to you while being hands free. It is also readily available at most chain stores. Unfortunately, this is its only merit. These carriers are not ergonomically designed for parents or babies. The weight distribution is not comfortable for the adult's shoulders, but more importantly, the seat does not promote a natural position for babies. You can see on any ad for this carrier that baby is not supported at all, hence the term "crotch dangler." This position puts pressure on baby's still developing spine and can also result in hip dysplasia. Please do not use this carrier. Do some research and find a carrier that is healthy for you and your baby. In the category of soft structured carriers (with belts and buckles), I like the Ergo.

This piece of baby gear is the single most important item behind my baby's car seat. This carrier supports your child in a firm position to allow him/her to feel confident and safe, thereby relaxing. In the early months you have the opportunity to stare down into their beautiful face and yet still have free hands to get things done. The design of the pack is wonderful to support the back and shoulders to evenly distribute your baby's weight. I wear this pack for several hours every day and my child loves it. As soon as my little girl sees it, she smiles. My house would stop running if I did not have the Baby Bjorn. The price may seem high, but it is more than worth it.

When my little one was an infant, we used the Baby Bjorn everywhere! We went to beaches, the zoo, parks, malls, doctor's appointments, etc. with the Baby Bjorn. My little one loved to be in it and carried around. When he got big enough, we flipped him around so that he could be forward facing and look at the world. My little one has physical disabilities and frequently had casts on his legs. The Baby Bjorn worked well with all his castings. My husband also used the Baby Bjorn to carry our little one around. It wasn't too "girly" for him. ;) The only downside to the Baby Bjorn was that my little one seemed to grow out of it way too quick. We had to get a different baby carrier for him by about 5 months of age.

I love this carrier. It makes my shoulder/neck area hurt a bit, but so does every other carrier I have ever used. Overall this is a wonderful carrier that kees baby close, but hands free. I had one for my children, and am now using one for my niece. I used to do a cleaning job, and I can't count the amount of times I vacuumed with my boy strapped in sleeping. When they were a few months old, I was actually able to nurse with them in it (e.g. when I was in the grocery store and baby was having a meltdown :) The babies always feel secure in this, and I felt secure as well. When they are big enough to face forward it was great, because they could see what was going on, and weren't as fussy or fidgety. Really loved my baby bjorn, and now enjoy having my niece's as well!!

I was super impressed when I first tested the Baby Bjorn Comfort!! I was mainly impressed with the wide padded waist and the adjustable shoulder straps that were easy to adjust. I love that you can carry your baby facing inwards or outwards depending on what you and your baby prefer. It's also made of 100% organically grown and certified cotton which is a plus in my book!! I've carried my 2 year old in it (she weighs 26 pounds) and it still works GREAT!! It's a little more bulky than others but VERY comfortable!!

I never pictured myself as a baby wearing momma but when my second daughter arrived it happened! My baby LOVED it! It gave her a sense of security and she loved being so close to her momma! I was able to get things done around the house and deal with my oldest daughter also without worrying about the baby. I loved knowing that she was right there with me all the time. I also used the Bjorn while out shopping. I use a converitable carseat so I have no carrier to bring with me in places so the Bjorn came in so handy!!! At first, it took some getting use to and hurt my back as she got older. I honestly don't know what i would have done with out it! I highly recommend the Bjorn to all my friends. It was easy to take care of and clean. Also, it was easy to get the baby in and out of. I did try off brand carriers but nothing compared to the Bjorn. When I go to baby showers, this is the gift I give!!!!

Baby Bjorn is a company you can trust who makes wonderful baby products. I have bought the baby carrier, the potty chair, travel crib, bib, dishware and utensils in the past and was very pleased witih the quality and detail to function for all of their products. I highly recommend anything that says Baby Bjorn.

This product is made very well. My son loved to be carried arund in it and it had lots of padding to prevent discomfort for your child. Love this carrier, would never use another one. Worth the price.
