    it is described as 3 position infant carrier, well in reality it has just two. The quality is good and seems resistant to me but I would have liked more honesty about the features. You can carry the baby just in the front and towards you or facing the world. There are better carriers out there, please check them out before buying this.

    The good qualities are: very easy to use, very easy to clean (machine washable) light weight.

    hope this helps

    It was tough to find the right infant carrier and I bought this product because I trust the Chicco brand — I have their carseat, stroller, play yard & plan to get their high chair. When I first tried this carrier, I thought it was a great buy but now that I’ve had it for a few days, I have a few critiques:

    #1: It is somewhat difficult to get your baby into and especially out — the mesh creates cling to your baby so it can be difficult to pull baby straight up & out — impossible to do while baby is asleep.

    #2: Although it says for 7.5 lb to 25 lbs, my 5 week old at 10lbs looked like she had been swallowed in it — I had to fold the top down in order to see her.

    #3: Long usage will cause some discomfort on your shoulders & back. I went for a 2 mile walk to the grocery store and on the way back, I could definitely start to feel the pressure on my shoulders & mid-back. I have used this for a maximum of 2 hours and after some stretching, I felt fine but who knows what will happen as my baby grows & gets heavier…

    #4: The adjustable straps on the side are difficult to adjust, especially when you have the baby in your way!

    #5: The cuddle pocket feature is useless — there’s so much padding that there’s no way your baby can feel your touch… I would rather this be an extra pocket for me to store something small, like a cellphone or keys.

    #6: Attached snap-on bib is a good idea but the bib they provide you with is really ugly and BRIGHT WHITE — I would rather this be a universal snap-on for all bibs.

    Chicco has a more expensive deluxe version of this carrier.

    It’s almost twice as expensive but it has these additional features:

    *Opens from front

    *Waist belt and lumbar support

    *Quick fixing attachment points and multiple easy adjustments

    Seems like it would solve a lot of the above problems I mentioned but at twice the price, I hesitate.

    I shopped for the perfect carrier for a long time before purchasing this product. Many friends have the BabyBjorn and other various brands and have complained about the back pain they have from their carriers as well as the heat it causes them and their baby. This carrier is comfortable and caused no back pain. It’s designed in a way to take the pressure off your back and disperse it across the straps. The material is totally breathable and cool for you and baby. It is very easy to get on and off and to get baby in and out without help. Very good product all around .

    I liked this model as it was usable facing forward or back, and my grandson is only two months old. This is a lot jazzier as far as padding and straps compared to what I had thirty years ago. The only thing so far that I really didn’t like was that it didn’t tell her how to put the baby in properly. And it didn’t even mention facing toward Mom, yet it has a drool pad on the top to keep her clothes drier. So for use I would give it a 5, for information/instructions I would give it a 3.

    I bought this for my older brother and his wife who are expecting their first child in August. It is very soft and appears to be very durable and easy to clean. Seems like it will be a comfy ride for my little niece.
