I bought this for my daughter to use while flying with the grandchildren. She found it very useful. It is well made and I would buy another one if needed.

This was delivered while I was feeding little Nathan. I told him that a cool package had arrived and promised him we would open it after he was done eating. I swore up an down that he would love it and lo and behold, as soon as I put him in it he totally got chill and he's half asleep now as I write this. I only introduced him to this sling 5 minutes ago. I dont write reviews by the way. But this was just to fabulous to now tell everyone. It feels sturdy, my baby likes it, my hands are free as I type this and he doesn't have to be so far away from me, crying because he wants to be held. Its good for baby and for Mommy!!

I am so glad I decided on this sling. I tried 2 others: the INfantino Sling rider (Which only satisfied my newborn for a week) and the HotSling, too stiff and no adjustable straps. I ordered this solely based on the picture and that it's endorsed by Dr. Sears. I got lucky - this sling has been a GOD SEND! IT's my baby's favorite way to sleep. She was very colic-y from the beginning and this was the only way to calm her down and get her to sleep. We would swaddle her and get her in. We'd even lay her down after falling asleep safely in the sling still into her crib. It's been perfect! I'm still using it with her at 7 mos. True, if you have back problems, it's prob not going to be a positive experience for you. Also, baby may not take to the sling right at first, but keep trying it and she'll eventually cozy into it. Take this sling shopping with you, to church, to friends, restaurants - it's perfect for nestling baby so she feels safe. And you can try other positions and styles of wearing it as your baby grows. I rec. getting Dr. Sear's Baby Book as a companion to show different baby-wearing methods that work with this sling.

Ok, we now have 4 ways to tote our toddler on our bodies & this is my current favorite. I had wanted a sling from the start, but couldn't find one I liked. Other rings slings have this massive "tail" that drove me nuts. The Peanut Shell brand is beautiful, but expensive. Hotslings were too size specific (my husband I would have each needed our own). I went with the Moby & then the Bjorn Active while our son was tiny.
When I started carrying him on my hip, I revisited the sling idea & found this one at a local store. It is perfect! Adjustable, neat & comfy. The rails are padded so they don't cut into his legs. The "tail" is just a strip of fabric, not a whole, giant bed sheet. It has a sort of toggle on the end that tucks neatly into a strip of fabric to keep the tail from hanging down. There are 2 little pockets on the outside for keys or change (not too useful, but once in a while they come in handy). I love the fabric & the other 2 or 3 patterns are also very nice and maybe more gender neutral (for dads who care). We've used it constantly for 5 months & it has held up very well. I keep it in the car.
One caveat about slings in general: if you have a bad back or poor posture, think twice before carrying your baby in a sling. It does not distribute weight well. I use this one to free up my hands when I would ordinarily be carrying him on my hip anyway. If I wear him in it for long periods of time, I definitely feel "outta-whack." And my son is 19 pounds at 1 year (shrimpy).
That said, if I had found this sling first, I might not have bought another carrier.
