20 Best Twin Baby Carrier (2022 Updated)

Review I received the Embrace Soft Air Mesh Newborn Carrier through the Stellar Product Testing Panel in exchange for my honest review. I have 3 kids, (the youngest being 2 months old,) and I have a lot of experience with babywearing.

My babies and I have all loved using wraps, slings and carriers throughout their infancy and even toddlerhood – in the house to get things done, out and about running errands, walking and hiking, on all day trips and on vacation- carriers are definitely a game-changer for any parent.

For my 2- month old son, I have been using a traditional wrap to carry him since he was born. Like the name implies, the wrap is a long piece of fabric that requires a lot of complicated (at times) wrapping and tying to put on, but it’s also super cozy and warm to carry my newborn in the colder months in New England.

But as my son is getting a bit older, and it’s getting warmer outside, I’d started looking for a different carrier- something less heavy and thick, and something a little easier, especially when ‘on the go’.

I didn’t feel the baby was quite ready for the bigger structured carriers yet, even with the infant insert. Enter the Embrace Soft Air Mesh Newborn Carrier! This mesh carrier combines all of my favorite features from the wrap with all of the conveniences and support of a more structured carrier.

It keeps my baby cozy and close to me and is great for breastfeeding. Like with the wrap, he falls asleep almost instantly when in the Embrace carrier. It is super lightweight – incredibly easy to pack up and take with me on outings and it takes up hardly any space in a bag.

The material is a lightweight knit/mesh – it’s soft and breathable for me and my little guy and I can definitely see us using this carrier all summer long without either of us getting too hot or sweaty.

I love that the straps are stretchable and wrap in the back – like my wrap, it is comfortable and supportive for me and baby- and the long straps make it so easy to put on by myself too. It is so much easier and more convenient to put on than the wrap- literally 3 buckles and we’re good to go.

The carrier has a padded waistband/belt, and a cushioned neck support for baby, and it keeps his hips in the ergonomic “M-position” that’s so important for his hip development. This means we’re both comfortable, even when babywearing for several hours a day.

Other great features of this carrier: it’s machine washable and once he’s old enough, we can use this carrier for baby to sit in a face-out position. I love this carrier so much that I now find myself reaching for this carrier over my wraps, sling and other carriers – it’s just so comfortable and so easy.

This carrier would really make a perfect gift for new/expecting parents and is a great addition to a baby registry – I definitely highly recommend!.

I received this newborn carrier through the Stellar Product Testing Panel in perfect timing! Having had two other newborns in spring/summer timing and being an avid baby wearer, I have been searching for a cooler alternative for baby number three than what I’ve used in the past.

Overall this is a very comfortable, lightweight, breathable cross between a traditional wrap and a carrier and there’s really nothing I’ve found quite like it on the market. These are the pros that I have experienced with this carrier: 1.

Amazingly soft, stretchy material that is breathable like a sports T-shirt. The stretch is better than I’ve seen in any non-wrap carrier and is great for postpartum mom and newborn. This truly has the support of a carrier with the comfort of a warp without feeling like you are bundled in a sweater.

2. So easy to put on. It is so important to be able to slip a carrier on quickly especially when you’re in a hot parking lot with no space and baby is waiting to get out. This slick two clip system (or one clip if you put it over your head) eliminates frustrating tugging, tying or latching every time you just want to get out of the car.

3. Very adjustable to personalize the fit. This has just three main adjustments you can make plus the shoulders that can spread out. The straps have plenty of length so it can be adjusted to my husband who is much larger than myself with plenty more strap to go.

The shoulders can spread out mimicking the comfortable fit of a wrap without feeling like you are wearing a sweater (also leaving your back open to the air). It’s also good to note that if you are the only one using it, then you don’t have to worry about getting it just the right tightness or height every time you use it.

4. Quick and easy instructions. This may seem trivial since we have the internet, but the instructions are so easily laid out that you can quickly find your baby’s weight and how you plan to wear them (forward/backward) and immediately see how they/the carrier should or shouldn’t look once set up.

No need to search for videos or wonder if baby is safe and comfortable. I have not experienced any significant cons with this carrier. The only con that might come up is that it only goes to 25lbs, and I prefer to stay minimal with what baby gear I own.

But given that newborns are so different in needs and body shape than older babies, and I tend to wear my newborn much more than older babies I think it is worth owning a newborn specific carrier.

I’ve been using this carrier with my newborn son since he was about five weeks old, and I love it. It feels comfortable, it’s very easy to put on and remove, and baby falls asleep immediately in it. This is my third child, and I really wish I’d had this carrier for the first two during their newborn stage.

I tried wraps with them, but I could never make them work outside of the house: how are you supposed to put on those long fabric ones in a parking lot without getting the ends dirty? The Embrace has the comfy structure and support that makes the wrap desirable (especially in the floppy newborn stage), but it’s a million times easier to put on than a traditional wrap.

Just buckle three buckles, and I’m good to go anywhere. When off, the carrier is even smaller than it looks when on. It can easily fit in a diaper bag or hang from a hat hook. I think I want to get a little canvas bag to keep it in since the straps get a little tangled in things in the diaper bag otherwise.

When I’m wearing it, it’s very comfortable on my shoulders and back, as long as I’m careful to spread the straps out wide over my shoulders. The fabric is stretchy, so stretching the fabric over the very upper arms doesn’t restrict my movement.

The waist belt is comfortable — I really like the fact that it buckles on the side for easy access. The mesh fabric is definitely breathable. It’s thin but strong, which is great—definitely a perfect carrier for summer.

I don’t think baby or I will get too warm wearing it. The size of the carrier is thin enough that it’s easy to put a coat on over it without creating weird bulges on the shoulders. For a newborn mom, a good baby carrier makes the difference between having your hands full or free.

I’m wearing this one all the time now—from making breakfast for my big kids to reading with them at bedtime, and all through walks outside and grocery store runs too. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this carrier to try out!.

Very happy with the carrier. Decided to buy this when our son was a bit over 4 months old as he had full control of his head and neck and wanted to be carried a lot. We have a Boba wrap, but found it a little tricky to use, and use well (I wasn’t very good at tying it tight enough and baby would slowly sink lower and lower over time).

Also, baby seemed to want to look out at things a lot and the option to face him outwards made this carrier very appealing. It was on sale too, so great value for the positions you’re able to use. My husband and I have both used the front-facing-in, front-facing-out, and back carry while doing various things (gardening, walking, eating, working at the computer, doing laundry, doing dishes, even going to the toilet!), and baby has been enjoying it (except when he’s not even happy to be held by us), especially when he’s outside.

Definitely helps when trying to get things done, and is also easier on the arms and hands. Found the side carry uncomfortable for me. It was also a bit difficult to seat baby, so I decided not to really try using that position after one go.

The option to cross the shoulder straps does indeed feel comfortable, and even though it means you need to buckle them each time you use it (instead of just putting it on like a backpack), still doesn’t make using the carrier a chore.

The headrest flap is great to flip up when he’s fallen asleep, keeping his head supported, and also providing some shade and noise-cancellation. Would also be good for supporting a younger baby’s neck, I would think.

Easy to use straight out of the box as advertised. Clear diagrammed instructions (thou as someone has mentioned, slightly difficult to see what’s going on as the carrier in the photos is black) and their instructional videos were also very helpful (though I believe they are for a slightly older version of the Beco Gemini? The safety buckles are not present in the carrier I have: instead there is safety elastic, which works very well).

Quite easy to adjust, and also easy to take baby out (though haven’t tried taking him out when he’s fallen asleep). As the weather’s getting cooler, I’m not sure how hot this will get during summer, but right now it’s fine.

The fabric is pretty smooth and comfortable against the skin. Don’t find the storage pocket that useful as it’s constantly squashed while wearing the carrier, making it difficult to get anything in or out.

Also doesn’t seem great for putting something like my phone in, as it’s rounded from being up against me.

Absolutely fantastic, hubby and i usually argue over who gets to baby wear bubba girl. Super easier to adjust from my large bust to hubbys tall and lanky frame. Super easy to get bubba in there by your self after about the third wear.

Came in real handy when we went on holiday to bribie island we could explore the beaches and the butterfly house with out the need of the bulky pram and it also ment we were able to keep up with the other kids easier.

We are not left feeling like our spines need readjustment after each use unlike other baby carriers. Its a sure fire way to get bubba girl to sleep.

As a plus size woman, I was nervous about baby carriers. The Beco Gemini fits so well with still plenty of room! my partner and I can both use the beco and its easily adjustable. I did have to watch the instruction videos a few times to get set up but once I had the knack of it, it seemed so simple! We have a very active lifestyle and the Beco is great for just walking the dogs around the park or hiking through the waitakeres.

I have a name brand carrier double in price of this one. my oldest loved it for a year but my back sure didn’t. my second by 3 months was already done with it. I need to carry her up a huge flight of stairs for preschool and as she got bigger it was becoming harder and harder.

she is 6 months and 18 pounds and the hip seat has been game changer. it is so nice for quick up and downs- really is game changer for dropoff. tried wearing her to the pool today and not only was she happy in a carrier for the first time in many months she actually took a good nap in it.

the seat gives them a bit more room for babies that don’t love being worn. plus it was sooo much more comfortable than our other much more expensive carrier. downside is it can’t be worn from birth (but our second is 6 months and our last).

and there aren’t as many settings, pockets, etc. but honestly I think the simplicity makes it much easier to use.

I absolutely loved the options that come with the Moby wrap and when I found out it was made by Moby it made me even more curious. When I received the wrap I immediately took it out of the box and attempted to use it before reading the instructions.

I think this was near to impossible. I couldn’t figure out which strap went where, and how to adjust properly. I took some time to read over the instructions to figure out how to use the waist holder and tried this out on my 18 month old, it works like other waist holders, you snap I the back, then use the Velcro straps to tighten it even more if it’s loose, I didn’t notice a big difference between this and other brands.

The other great option is you can use the wrap for more than that, if you have an infant you can have the infant front face or face yourself. This took a bit of practicing. I first tried my 18 month old in this, ever since he was little I “baby wore” him until he was about a year old so I wanted to see what he thought, he loved being able to cuddle up with me while I “wore” him but it was a bit difficult, I think due to his size.

So next was a baby, this definitely fits a baby better for the “wrap” portion. I felt it was secure and I was able to feel comfortable holding the baby, but I still feel it was much more difficult to use this than the standard Moby wrap, I would opt for that any day over this.

The 2-1 Carrier was just much more difficult to use and took up more space than a typical wrap. If you are wanting something that you can use long after the baby is no longer a baby this would due, but just keep in mind there is additional difficulty on the straps, adjusting and the bulkiness.

We have loved using the Moby 2-n-1 Baby Carrier and Hip Seat for 9 month old baby! I have been so impressed with this carrier! I used to be a more plus-sized woman and I had a hard time finding carriers that would fit comfortably around the waist without needing to buy an extendor.

Although I am not considered plus size anymore, I noticed that a great benefit of this carrier is how it can accommodate sizes so well with a very lengthy strap. The hip seat is a great feature and really helps to distribute the weight of the baby on your hips, not putting strain on your back.

It’s also much easier to strap baby in initially with being able to balance the baby on the seat while getting the straps situated. I did not have any issues with a sore back with this carrier unlike some others I have tried in the past.

I also felt like it was so comfortable for my baby since she was really sitting on something. She could kick and move her legs around and she was so excited about that! I was even able to use just the hip seat for my 35 pound 3.

5 year old. There are so many different positions you can use this carrier for. The videos online are helpful but I do wish the actual instruction manual that came with the carrier included some more descriptions rather than just pictures.

It still is a pretty easy carrier to figure out. With traveling this summer, this is going to be a very well used carrier for our family! The little pocket on the hip seat that can easily carry my wallet, phone, passport if I’m flying, is amazing! I would highly recommend this carrier!.

I planned to wear my baby way before he arrived and researched all types and brands of wraps and carriers extensively! I landed on Lillebaby because of all the features. Loved all the different ways to carry and the longevity of use.

Decided on the all seasons complete because of the zip down mesh back panel and sun/rain cover because I live in Florida and the weather is unpredictable. No one pulled this off my baby registry so after my son was born, I changed my mind and went with the Complete airflow because I read multiple reviews from users in FL and TX that advised the all over mesh was better than the original for hot weather.

It arrived and I was literally having to carry my son to pick this off the porch and open it immediately. My son currently hates to be anywhere but our arms and I can’t get anything done. One hour with this and I felt confident to take on lunch, laundry, even get dressed and sort some items around the house.

It’s not going to allow you to get everything done. No climbing ladders or constant bending over but just walking about with more than what I can grasp with one hand and make fewer trips between rooms.

I absolutely love the structure – everything is easy to adjust and fit to me. It does feel bulky now but my son is only 8 lbs now and I expect this will be strong enough once he’s larger. This was the only carrier I found that had safety straps in case the clips come undone – one of my favorite features and really the deciding factor once I was ready to choose a carrier.

Watched lots of videos before trying it on to ensure I was wearing it properly and knew how to keep my son safe and comfortable. The color is beautiful! Can’t imagine I’ll need another carrier besides this one but if I do (perhaps a backup for wash day) than I will stick with this brand for sure!.

I bought that this about a month ago for our newborn who is now 3 months. For a product that advertised airflow/ventilation in a carrier, it still gets very warm. It doesn’t keep you and baby as cool as I expected.

Also the buckle straps are difficult to use, the one around the waste is super tight, and I have to put a lot of extra effort into tugging it to tighten it. Also the side buckles and straps are not so convenient to tighten or buckle when you’re wearing it with baby in front, it’s always a bit of an awkward struggle to get situated.

Also we are not confident what we are supposed to do with his feet as a newborn, we didn’t find useful instruction about carrying him with his feet in the pocket. I do think as he gets a little bigger his legs will be able to be spread open more to match the carrier, but right now it’s pretty awkward.

This is all comparing to another carrier we bought for $35 on Amazon. However, we do like that the LILLEbaby carrier appears to be significantly more comfortable for baby than the other carrier we used.

For the price, I expected it to be a lot more easy to use.

You NEED this carrier! Like most, my mom uniform consists of so much black and athleisure. This carrier coordinates perfectly with the majority of my outfits, and fits my active lifestyle. I love the outdoors and I love carrying my baby.

As you can see she’s not tiny anymore; she’s 14 months old and around 25 pounds now, and TALL. This carrier supports her size perfectly! The DLX airflow from lillebaby was JUST released in Feb 2022; and offers thinner mesh for more airflow, more padding for baby’s legs, more streamlined straps (so less bulk, same comfort!), and a GORGEOUS color way.

This carrier still offers a narrow seat setting for babies who aren’t yet wearing 12-18 mo pants or so; so it works great for newborns through young toddler age. Narrow seat is also great for front forward facing starting at 6 months old.

If you’re shopping for an airflow carrier, be sure to grab the DLX in Shibori! Also- jump on Facebook and join the Lillebaby Love group for help with your carrier!.

We tried to be minimalist in what we bought for our first baby, but this thankfully made the cut. From our and friends’ experience, newborn babies prefer sitting in one of these to any other option in their first months of life.

Obviously you can get other brands but this one is safe, easy to adjust, gender neutral for both parents, allows baby to be inward or outward facing, comes with a 2 year warranty and is structured yet soft enough for newborns.

Our baby had silent reflux and HATED lying on his back so we wore this for his naps, carrying him about, loading the dishwasher, to eat our meals, go to the toilet, etc! :-/ Given 40-60% of newborns have reflux we are not a unique case.

Our baby was sometimes OK lying on his back in the pram (not all are) so maybe rather wait with buying a lie flat bassinet for your pram as some friends wish they never bought it) but we would NEVER leave the house without this carrier.

When baby wakes up and realises he’s on his back, I need this to stop the screaming. Our baby is very big and almost 10kg after 5. 5 months but this remains the best money we spent for baby items. I can no longer wear him for hours at this weight but it is still helpful.

I also expect to use this on an upcoming flight as it’ll be good for naps while seated. A truly invaluable item! If I have one regret it is that we didn’t buy the mesh version as over summer the Jersey one was at times a bit hot for baby, so I should have thought about that he’ll be in it when it is warm.

You can always put on more clothes and then use the carrier if it’s cold. The Jersey one also bobbles so after 5 months’ wear I’ve needed to defuzz it a few times but functionality isn’t affected. Mesh would have been better.

Another item we found invaluable with a refluxy baby was a baby bjorn bouncer (it’s not THAT convenient making dinner or unloading the dishwasher while carrying baby)! I should be a brand ambassador!.

Added this to our registry after researching a lot of baby carriers. Decided on this one and received it as a gift. Very happy with the quality! It is so durable yet light weight. I love how easy it is to put on by myself which was super important to me when choosing a carrier.

Baby stays comfortable and loves being in it. Also, as a plus size mom, I was really happy with how this fit me! I was worried it would be too small but it is perfect! For reference, I am 225 pounds and 5’3.

Highly recommended this carrier!.

I have had this gorgeous carrier for just over a month now, and have worn it almost daily to put it through its paces. I must say its gorgeous, we got so many compliments on it while out and about. And soft, straight out of the box! The panel adjusts with a quick snap at the waist to go from newborn (3kgs) up to 15kgs! It can be worn in four ways, front facing in, front facing out, back carrying and on the hip.

When it first arrived we tried it facing out, as i hadn’t worn an ergonomic carrier that could face out before it was a learning curve. Before trying it i couldn’t imagine how it wouldn’t pull on my shoulders or be uncomfortable but once i got it adjusted it was actually very comfortable and Clover was quite happy in it too.

When forward facing the panel must be snapped to the smaller setting to keep baby in a good position. To change her around to facing in on the front we unsnapped the panel and snapped it to the wider setting.

It supported knee to knee with a nice amount of padding for the legs, but i have found at the end of this month she’s grown enough that its no longer completely knee to knee. Her legs are still very well supported, but as personal preference i like to have a carrier that fits from knee crease to knee crease for as long as possible.

I was also easily able to loosen the straps a wee bit and nurse Clover while continuing on with the day. It was discreet and comfortable for both of us, and once she had finished or fell asleep it took two seconds to tighten it all back up and snuggle her close.

Changing the fit between myself and hubby was very easy. The strap adjustments are easy to do while wearing the carrier, and the webbing is thick enough that it doesn’t twist or get caught in the buckle.

The shoulder straps have comfortable padding and can be worn crossed which i find can mean a better fit for those with narrower shoulders. When Clover fell asleep the snap up padded head support held her head in place comfortably.

Got this carrier to use for longer walks where we need more support, and also for partner to be able to use instead of other carriers I have such as a ring sling. So far, so good – haven’t used it in very warm weather so unsure how cool it will be.

The straps though are very stiff to adjust and it’s almost impossible on your own – it needs another person to help. Hopefully they’ll soften with use, but it’s been difficult to get a perfect fit so far.

I recently won this carrier from The Sleep store competition and I love it! Instructions are easy to follow and I can successfully wear it myself. I used the carrier for about 5hours when I was out one day and it was so comfortable to use! Even when walking up and down hills and stairs.

The waist band distributes the weight evenly on the hips and I didnt feel the pressure on my shoulders or back. Also the cool mesh allowed for better air flow and I didnt feel like we were both overheating.

Usually my little one would be thrashing to get out of a carrier after a while but he looked happy in it and even managed to have a snooze. Love it how you can tie up the loose ends of the straps so it wont look too messy when wearing.

It is handy to have the pocket to store loose items like your phone/keys but I found the pocket quite hard to get to with it being under my little one’s bottom.

I don’t normally write reviews but this is a must. Initially we were going to use our old carrier from our first LO but my DS did not like it so we did our research and ultimately decided on the harmony and trust me, it’s expense is worth every penny.

I have been using this since LO is 3 months old and he is 7 months old and he is so calm in it and falls asleep easily. We use it for camping, hiking, grocery store, and even at times when he is fighting sleep, he will fall asleep quickly in this carrier.

The design is ergonomic and wraps my LO snuggly so it does not feel awkward at all, the straps are easily adjustable. Highly recommend the lumbar support which helps prevent a bad back. I highly recommend the harmony!.

I made the mistake of purchasing a cheaper baby carrier for my little one, and very quickly regretted it. Baby wasn’t happy, I wasn’t comfortable. So I purchased the baby bjorn carrier on the recommendation of some fellow mums.

Not only is the material good quality, but it’s soft and durable. My son loves being in the carrier. It’s supportive and well padded so the straps do not cause any discomfort whatsoever. It’s easy it put on and take off.

Excellent purchase. Well worth every penny.

Bought this as it was advertised as suitable for up to 3yrs of age / max 15kg / 100cm in height. I’ve had the carrier for 1 year now and my toddler is 17months and 80cm tall. The carrier is now too small and the straps puts pressure on my daughters shoulders (she is tall).

Babybjorn falsely advertised the product with max height of 100cm yet my little girl is only 80cm and the product does not work with her height. They say children grow at different rates and it’s unfortunate that my child outgrew the carrier faster than anticipated.

Babybjorn not taking responsibility for false advertising and basically said it’s tough luck deal with it.

Loved this carrier. The fabric comfortably hugged and supported my newborn baby. We used to headrest most of the time. The mesh was perfect for when we walked on hot days. He never got too hot, even when super snug against my body.

It was perfect for our daily hour walks, the carrier straps did not hurt my shoulders at all. The only thing I disliked was the way I had to put it on, I felt like without help it would be a little difficult to both, put on the carrier over my shoulders and hold my baby.

Over all great carrier and will continue to use it until he outgrows it. I also liked the little pocket which was big enough for me to put my key and phone in so I didn’t have to take anything extra on my walks.

I received this carrier free in exchange for an honest review.

When we had our first kid, I got a different, cheaper carrier because I wasn’t sure how much I’d actually use it. I used it a few times but wasn’t a big fan. I knew this time around (3 yrs later. ) I’d need a good carrier since having a 3yr old and a new baby would be crazy.

I’ve used this more around the house since we’re not very social during the pandemic. This was recommended to me in a Facebook group I’m in and I never heard of it before that! I live in WI so I was drawn to this All Seasons one specifically.

I love how sturdy and secure this feels. It doesn’t dig into my waist (like my other one) or my baby’s little legs and irritate them. She seems to enjoy it as well! I also bought the waist extender since I wasn’t sure if I would need it or not, but I ended up not needing it! I’m still wearing my pregnancy jeans 3 months later (still have that belly) and about a XXL in pants.

I love that there is a little pocket, that it folds down if babe gets warm, that there is a little “sun shield” or as someone else mentioned a germ shield and it’s in a fun pattern too. The lumbar support is nice too! I’m very happy I decided to spend the extra money and get a good quality carrier.

I have became a mom of two last month and bought it hoping to carry both of my children. I love baby and toddler wearing so I was pretty excited when I found this beautiful and versatile carrier. To be even more happy, along with the All Seasons I have received Dragonfly Wrap free (thank you Lille)! What not to be happy with? Since I am using the Dragonfly for my newborn now (we both love it- the best wrap so far) I tried the All Seasons with my toddler and it felt really comfy for both of us.

We tried front and back carry (yes, my 2 year old loves to be carried in the front facing inwards). I can’t wait to use it more! Wish I have had found this carrier when my firstborn was a baby!.

I am fortunate enough to be able to bring my baby to work with me now that she’s seven weeks old. The last week, however, was a struggle without a good carrier. We tried a wrap, which worked, but it’s like wearing an extra layer (or two) of clothing, and tying it is a pain.

I tried a soft structured carrier (SSC) that I picked up at a yard sale many years ago, but the straps would loosen over the course of a few MINUTES, it was such a pain to get the baby in and out, and it had no support.

I fell in love with another brand of SSC which I ordered, but shipping will take two weeks and I need something NOW. Enter the LílléBaby! I ran to target and picked this guy up and I am SO HAPPY with it! It’s crazy comfortable and supportive, it’s easy to get baby in and out, easy to put on and take off, and my (12 lb) newborn is snuggly and comfortable in it.

Additionally, the neutral color means that my husband will feel comfortable wearing it too (the other carrier I ordered is pretty frilly and girly). I am so glad I bought this carrier. It’s perfect! One small tip I will offer: play around with the straps until you find your sweet spot.

Initially, the plastic strap adjusters were digging in under my arms and it was uncomfortable, but I was able to fix that problem by moving the chest strap up farther, which made the whole carrier more comfortable!.

THIS IS THE BAG! After extensive research and comparing between product sites, reviews, and blogs, the Deuter Kid Comfort came out the unanimous front runner. We have an active lifestyle and zest for travel, so needed something comfortable for not only us parents, but our baby too! We are more than impressed with the Kid Comfort! So far used for strictly hiking purposes, it has lived up to the hype! Great design, generous storage space, a sturdy kickstand, and of course COMFORT for both wearer and rider! We are heading to France in September and cannot wait to explore without the restrictions of a stroller!.

Good mix between wearing comfort and size/weight. I also tried the deuter and mountain equipment coop counterparts and this one is clearly more comfortable. Can’t comment on baby comfort comparison since he looked the same sitting on all of them.

Lots of strapping and other adjustments which complicates things at times, but the customizability makes it comfortable. Compared to the other bags of tried weight distribution is a bit farther back, which means I need to lean forward more to reflect the centre of gravity shift.

I’ve been rather into this babywearing game for about a year and a half now and throughout that time, a multitude of carriers have arrived in white envelopes and boxes. I’ve gasped and squealed as my hands have touched silk and various blends and I’ve ran my hands over fabrics in ways I never thought I would.

But buckles find their way in amongst those fabrics and for good reason. They are easy. They distribute weight with minimal effort. And when you get into the up, down, up, down, nap stage, well, buckles are the easiest way to keep your sanity.

I’ve tried many different ones and I love my Beco. I love all of the storage space, best of both other buckle carrier brand worlds, with the detachable big pocket and the waistband pocket as well. It’s comfortable and adjustable.

It’ll last us for a long time. (Though I have my eye on some toddler prints that my tiny girl will be too small for still. ) I also love the ring on the strap to clip keys.

I have been using the moby for my infant, but found he was starting to pull against the fabric, and it was difficult to get him into the moby quickly. I decided to purchase this product, and have not been disappointed.

The Soleil is easy to get on, the shoulder straps are well cushioned and the fabric is very nice. Also, it is a light weight carrier, I hardly notice I am wearing it. The only negatives are that until your baby reaches 3 months, they get swallowed up by the carrier, dog/cat hair is easily attracted to the fabric and you have to purchase the infant insert.

Overall I love the pocket at the waist, the additional hood, teething cushions and feel of this product. I would highly recommend!.

This is my exact baby carrier, and while it is beautiful and I love it, the only thing that I wish it had was the ability to have a front facing option. My daughter (and other kids I cared for) would’ve loved this even more if they could’ve been looking forward.

We bought this carrier when our lil babe was about 6 months old and it couldn’t have been more perfect. We looked at all of the competitors and fell in love with the juno because of its aesthetics as well as its practicality.

It worked well for both my husband and I, and was easy to transition back and forth quickly. I loved the hands-through feature for snuggling up, the stashable hood feature was great for napping or as a sun shade and it was handy to have little pockets to stash my debit card or phone.

We used it around town, on beach walks and mountain hikes. I am a florist and it was perfect for making hands free deliveries – people loved my little tag along! Our lil pal has always been on the larger end of the size spectrum but the juno held him comfortably through many stages.

Now he’s 2, just over 30lbs and our time with the juno is coming to a close BUT I can still sneak him in the carrier if he falls asleep in the car and I need to keep moving! I would absolutely recommend this product to anyone considering a more structured carrier option and will definitely use the juno for any future babes!.

I was given the opportunity to try the Mountain Buggy Juno and I must say that this is a great product that trumps a lot of other carriers on the market. I tried on several others in the store but this particular carrier was not only comfy for me, it was also comfy for my baby.

I have had her in the Juno with the adjustable infant insert (included in the price which is a bonus) and without. Both seemed to fit her very well. The magnetic clip is awesome. Putting her in without having to fuss much with the clip in the back is so good, especially since I still have “mommy thumb” and can’t move my wrist as much.

As for the material. I love it! I was worried about it being too hot for her but it wasn’t. In fact, we used this on our travels to Arizona and Utah, as well as walking around humid DC, and it wasn’t bad at all.

The material is super soft and the pockets are great. There is a deep pocket in the front (I don’t know how to quite use that yet) and two side pockets. I can fit my iPhone 6, cash, and some keys and go for a nice walk with my hands free or tucked into this little pocket area in the front that allows me to cradle her.

I bet that keeps your hands warm for fall walks Overall this carrier is definitely a gem and I highly recommend it. I am definitely a mountain buggy fan after using the Juno.

We tried the Juno at a baby show along with a number of other baby carriers, it was much easier to put on than others, a lot more comfortable and was a carrier that both my husband and I would be happy to wear.

The newborn insert is great as it supports their head and you know they are safe but it can be a bit of a faff to put on while on the move. Love the pockets either side which are really big and easily fit phone keys and a few other bits in.

It’s very easy to adjust which is great as my husband and I are different sizes. Also the little cover is amazing when it’s sunny or windy. It’s not the cheapest of carriers but I think it’s well worth the investment and you only need to see it up close and feel it to know it is a luxury product with super soft fabric, sturdy clips and a really sleek design.

People are always asking me about it too. For us it has been an essential item, our baby falls asleep in it without fail so great if she’s overtired or just being particularly fussy. I really don’t have anything bad to say about it, definitely a must-have!.

Loving my JJ Cole Luma 4 position carrier. I’ve been using it almost daily for a few weeks, wearing my grandson mainly forward facing. At 5 months, 15# and wriggly squirmy, I feel safer wearing him rather than having him in his bulky stroller, and this carrier has eased my mind with it’s strength and durability.

The straps don’t dig into my shoulders or slide even after wearing him for hours. I’m 5’5″ 140# short waisted and barrel chested due to scoliosis and the easily adjustable straps don’t cause any fatigue or pinched spots on my back or waist, something that even a backpack will hit me wrong.

We went to the zoo for Mother’s Day and I was able to walk and wear him for the better part of the day other than a snooze in his stroller and I honestly didn’t “feel” the weight of him pulling on my shoulders or back, super super comfortable after adjustment.

Also neither one of us got sweaty or felt hot from the soft breathable fabric, so much better than the other nylon carrier we had! And this fabric also doesnt cause any marks on his legs or make his feet turn colors from dangling, I can tell he’s comfortable from his happy little giggles and also the way he is supported with comfort to me.

I haven’t had any problem getting him in or out of the carrier, he slides in and out easily with help from my daughter now that he’s getting heavier. Since he’s teething with constant drool, I’ve tossed the carrier in the washer and dryer numerous times and it still looks and performs as new.

And I really like how it easily folds into it’s own little pocket(that is also handy to hold a couple little things while we’re out), much better than having ugly straps getting tangled in his bag or my purse.

Very pleased with the performance and durability of this carrier and am looking forward to wearing him for many more months with confidence.

The first thing I love about this carrier is how lightweight the material is. Baby wearing in the simmers can be a bit miserable if your carrier isn’t light weight enough. It’s thin and breathable- perfect for hotter climates.

The instruction manual is THICK, so if you’ve never baby worn before, it may be a bit confusing. I al sue find the easiest way to learn is finding a YouTube video specific to your carrier aid then practicing.

It isn’t the easiest to put on and put baby in, even for an experienced wearer. It’s kind of tricky at first but you’ll get the hang of it. I love that there are two ways you can wear the straps to make sure the load of baby is evenly distributed across your back.

The material is soft, breathable, and a super cute gender neutral pattern. The little pocket in the front is a nice added feature. It’s also nice how it folds up to save space while storing. What I also love is that once baby is big enough, they can be worn facing in or out.

Overall i would recommend this product.

We used this carrier for the first time on a shelling tour in SWFL. It was 86 degrees outside, and I have to say – Wearing this in the heat and sun without feeling like death after 2 hours has me sold.

The mesh fabric kept us from overheating, and our 6 month old seemed comfortable as he didn’t fuss a single bit. We switched to this carrier from one that I had been gifted, though it was complicated and uncomfortable.

I was able to put this on, and get our little one strapped in within a minute or two, and it was super easy to adjust on my own without needing help. I have really wide hips and this fit comfortably with room.

One of my favorite features is how compact it is once you’re done using it. It folds up easily and isn’t “clunky” to store. I will definitely be packing this away for our next little one!.

I love the Ergobaby carrier I bought a few years ago for my first baby, so I decided to reuse it for one of my newborn twins and buy another Ergobaby carrier for the other twin. After reviewing all the different carriers, I decided on the Omni Breeze, thinking the mesh would work well for my hot-bodied husband and baby boy.

It was delivered super fast so that was a plus, but I was extremely disappointed by the carrier. The “SoftFlex” mesh was rough as sandpaper! I brushed it on my inner thigh and there was no way I was putting my baby boy in that thing even for a minute.

I instantly put it back in the box to return it and when I went to look for her return policy, it is definitely not as costumer friendly as other brands. You have to email their support email letting them know you’d like to return the item, wait for them to respond with a return item number, instead of issuing you a prepaid label which they could discount off your return (for which most companies deduct about $5) they just give you a return address and ask you to go to figure it out yourself with a carrier and REQUIRE you pay for shipping that includes a tracking number which you have to email them back with in order for them to accept your return (UPS charged me $12 to return this thing!).

I still like their carriers, just definitely not THIS ONE, and definitely not buying directly from them, so now I’m just going to order the Omni Dream from BuyBuyBaby or Target so if there’s any issues I can just return to a store location.

As part of the Stellar Parent Panel, I was provided the Omni Breeze Baby Carrier. I was so excited to test this product with both my lightweight nearly 3 year old and my newly one year old little for trips out and about or for clingy moments while around the house! This product most definitely did not disappoint! This baby carrier has many wonderful features.

One of the features that I enjoy as a parent is the easy to adjust, color coded, velcro adjustment waistband to comfortably carry your child as they grow. The color coded aspect makes it easy to determine which fit is most suitable for your child to carry safely which made it easy to transition between multiple children while I was testing.

This feature also took away one worry as a parent that I may be carrying uncomfortably or unsafely for my children. Another feature that I loved on the baby carrier was the storage pouch on the front waistband for storing things that I needed while carrying my littles.

This pouch was perfect for placing my cell phone and either a small snack or pacifier for my children. I also like that this pouch was removable if I didn’t need the feature. Another feature that I liked on this carrier was the breathable fabric which made activities with more motion (like hiking, yard work around the house, or cleaning) more comfortable for both my children and I.

In other carriers that I have used, this is certainly not the case which makes me prefer this carrier over others I have tried. Another feature that I really like is the storage compartment for a small shade.

I used this shade on a few occasions when my little was forward facing and in the sun or when our family had unexpected rainfall while hiking! Along with this feature used for forward facing resting children is the easy to transition neck support feature that I could easily put up or fold away when not in use.

This helped to keep my little’s head from flopping around while I moved about. Yet another feature that I liked about this carrier is the back support strap that rested comfortably against the bottom of my back.

This feature helped me to carry my children for extended amount of time comfortably without having a sore back afterwards. An additional comfort feature that I liked as the parent was the well-padded shoulder straps.

This kept the straps from digging into my shoulder or moving about causing chaffing on my back and shoulders. The straps were also easy to clasp shut and adjust on my own while preparing to carry or removing the carrier at the end of use.

Overall, I was overly impressed by the careful attention to detail and design and the many features that this carrier had. I am so glad to continue to use this product as my children continue to grow!.

I received the Omni Breeze Baby Carrier to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel – it is a great carrier! It is light weight, the pearl grey is a lovely color and will be great for summer (as compared to a dark color), my son seems very happy and comfortable in the carrier and it felt great on me, too.

The straps are padded nicely for comfort and I had zero strain on my back or irritation anywhere! I have yet to test the carrier in warm, humid summer weather but I think think the fabric and mesh will make it cool for both my little one and me.

The pockets and pouch were a very appreciated touch, moms never have enough hands even when carrying a baby so I love being able to stash my phone, a kleenex, etc. in the carrier so they’re easily accessible without having to carry another bag or struggle to reach in to my pants pocket.

My only criticisms of the carrier are that the instructions were incredibly confusing and making adjustments to fit is a little tricky – especially if you’re on your own and trying to make changes while holding/carrying the baby.

The instructions were largely picture based and were so hard to follow for my husband and me! I knew there were videos available, but I didn’t watch those figuring surely it’d be easy enough to use and I didn’t need to watch.

Instead I spent far more time trying to decipher what in the world the arrows in the instructions pamphlet were trying to point at or indicate. I did also have trouble getting some of the buckles done and adjusted on my own.

The buckle on the waist fastens on the left side, which I had a hard time with since I’m right handed. Some of the adjustments with the straps, loops and other buckles were also tricky to do on my own while my husband was away while holding a squirmy 9 month old little boy.

I’m reluctant to let my husband use the carrier because of the need to reset all of the sizing! My 9 month old son is 21 lbs and about 29″ long and fits very comfortably in the carrier – for both of us.

I have yet to try it out with our 40 lb almost 3 year old, but I love that it’s an option for up to 45 lbs in case we need it in a pinch! We look forward to getting years of use out of this carrier. Overall this is a great carrier and once you get familiar with it and size it to your body, it is very easy to use for both you and your baby.

My husband and I needed to run errands and left the house with our baby. When we got to the store, we realized we forgot to bring the stroller with us so we ran into Target and bought the cheapest baby carrier we could find.

The baby seemed to like it and it was comfortable for me. Upon leaving one of the stores, something slippery was on the floor and I slipped falling face first to the ground. Luckily I caught myself before my baby hit the ground but she was safe and snug in the carrier the whole time.

She didn’t have a single scratch ch on her! My baby is a little over 20 lbs and this carrier kept her buckled in and safe. I am so great full for the sturdiness and safety it offered!.

I received the carrier as a gift. My daughter was born breech, and the doctors had concerns that her hips were not developing properly in their sockets. She had an ultrasound at 9 days old, we were told to double diaper her and come back for a follow up.

At 8 weeks, we were told her hips had “fixed themselves” and we didn’t need to worry anymore. Meanwhile, as our baby grew we learned that she loved being in the Ergo. It would have often calm her when she was fussy, and put her to sleep.

We used it almost constantly for quite sometime. Fast forward to her 9mo well appointment and the doctor ordered a final X-ray to follow up on her hips. Her left hip showed mild hip dysplasia, so off we went to the children orthopedics specialist at UVA.

The specialist was dumbfounded. The radiologist who told us her hips were normal at 8 weeks was wildly incorrect. Turns out Imogene should have been placed in a Pavlock harness to correct her hips as a newborn.

And yet, based on the X-ray at 9mo her right hip was miraculously normal and her left hip showed only mild, and quite treatable hip dysplasia. The doctor said it was nothing short of a miracle that we had arrived at this X-ray after seeing her 8weeks images.

She asked if we used a carrier frequently, and we said yes, we used the ergo almost constantly before she was able to crawl around on her own. She said in using the ergo we had unknowingly braced her hips in the correct position and ultimately prevented the dislocated hips and the need for surgery that was expected based on that 8wo ultrasound.

I want to thank you so much for your product that not only comforted my baby, but seemed to treat her as well. This product truly does hold baby in the proper position for healthy development.

We purchased our Omni 360 carrier when we were expecting our first child, in addition to a stretchy fabric wrap I thought it would be a practical option for my husband (who was less likely to go for the stretch wrap).

Initially I thought I was being a bit luxe and maybe it was a bit extravagant. Friends who also have one rated them highly, this supported out decision to purchase. What I liked about this carrier was the age/size range that it catered for (quite wide) and that it didn’t require an additional newborn insert – so while expensive, it would see us through a good period of time.

The carrier proved to be a practical option for walking along the beach with a newborn – my husband was able to carry our baby, and we didn’t need to worry about sand and our pram. I enjoyed the Omni 360 for our newborn as it was easier for me to get on and off, and a more seamless transfer of a sleeping babe – for context, I am on the shorter side.

As our daughter has grown, she is now 17 months, I have found it a great option for doing the groceries (especially during these covid times) as I haven’t needed to put her into a shopping trolley, she has a great view of what we are doing and can participate.

More recently it has been a great option for fruit picking and allowing her to participate in the process. For us, this has been a great investment piece which we have utilised in conjunction with our pram, it allows us to do things hands free while still including our daughter.

Fairly solidly made but not particularly well designed. There’s no way to adjust for torso length and the one-size-fits-all approach creates a really disappointing product. I’m 5’9 1/2″, not a particularly tall guy, and have to have the “hip” belt way up around my mid section to keep my baby at the recommended carry height.

It just slides down as we walk since there is no hip supporting it and also keeps the carrier from distributing the baby’s weight well. The padded section of the straps is also very short. I get it. This product was probably designed mostly with women in mind.

I have broader shoulders and some muscle and the padded section of the straps only goes an inch or two down my back, leaving only the webbing for back straps, neither comfortable nor particularly secure.

The straps that adjust the length of the shoulder belt are also the only straps that adjust tightness on baby. Basically I have to cinch the hip belt as tight as possible around the bottom of my rib cage for proper ride height and then cinch the shoulder belts only as tight as I dare, being mindful not to draw them too tightly for baby, and then just sort of keep hitching my son up as we walk.

I’d bought the harness in hopes of also using it for light, low impact activity like snow shoeing and cross country skiing, but that is totally out of the question. I was also very disappointed to find out shipping on returns was at the buyer’s expense.

That’s not particularly indicative of a company that stands by its products. Bottom line is this could have been a solid carrier with another piece of fabric between baby and adult with baby security adjustment straps separate from the shoulder adjustment height straps and a simple Velcro-closing height adjustment strip for the hip belt.

Without those, it’s really just not appropriately constructed for men, taller women, anybody with a little more body mass, etc. Construction is sturdy, hence 2 stars instead of 1.

It’s my first baby carrier. Therefore, i don’t know how the other baby carrier’s are. Its bit expensive but i feel it’s really helpful and usable.

I tried Manduca from a friend before buying so I knew what I was going for. Ive got it for my nearly 1-year-old daughter and Im hoping Ill be Using it for at least another year. Its really comfortable, doesnt make your back tired and even on hot days feel ok.

My little girl loves this. She has faced forward and back and both seem very comfy for her and certainly for me! Other slings have hurt my back but this one is great!
