5 Stars Lifesaver
Yes, this carrier already has tons of 5-star reviews–and it deserves another.

I resisted buying it at first because of the $$$ pricetag, but our six-week-old would only fall asleep while being held or carried. Our hand-me-down Bjorn hurt my back and she couldn’t settle in the Moby wrap. I finally bought it three weeks ago, and it has already been worth every penny. At first she would squall for a while when I put her in it, but now she’s so used to falling asleep in it that she settles down almost immediately. On bad nights I’ve even resorted to propping myself up and falling asleep while wearing her, although I’m pretty sure that’s not a recommended use. It’s great outside the house, too. By now, popping her in it is as a quick as getting the car seat onto the stroller, so I take it on all our errands.

Everything about it is well designed. The cover is great for sun protection, sleeping, keeping grubby hands off of our infant, and protecting her little head from ice cream and salsa drippings. I stash keys, pacis, and my wallet in the zip pocket. Everything is easily adjustable, so my husband can use it too.

The infant insert, however, is not worth the money. It’s a clever solution, and the baby seemed nice and cozy in it, but I found it too bulky and awkward for daily use. Instead, I wrap up my baby, put a folded burp cloth in the bottom of the carrier, and seat her sideways. Everything snugs up to keep her nice and secure. Sometimes I put her in facing me with her legs frogged up, but we both like the sidesaddle better.

Highly, highly recommended.

5 Stars Best $$$ EVER spent!
I love my ERGO and use it every day. I had used a few different carriers with my son when he was younger and once he reached about 10 pounds it put too much strain on my back. I do not have that problem with this one, and my daughter is almost 15 pounds. With other carriers I would have to take my child out to nurse, but I can nurse my daughter discretely while she is in the ERGO. She’ll fuss for a minute when I first put her in it, but she will settle down pretty quickly once she’s in there. She loves being snuggled so close to me. I’ve worn her in it for about 4 hours at a time and it never gets uncomfortable, sitting or standing. The pocket on the front is perfect size to fit my keys, a small burb cloth and a binky (we use soothie pacifiers). I haven’t tried to carrier my older son in it yet, but I’m planning on trying it this weekend when we go to a festival.

2 Stars Not what I expected for the money
I bought this item for my son and because I read so many reviews on it. When I got it I tried it out with my son who is 19 lbs. The carrier itself is very bulky. He did fit in it some what comfortably but wearing it was not comfortable. The chest strap was a pain. What I did not like AT ALL about the item was the waist strap that goes around my waist when carrying him on my back. It digs into your stomach flab and is not very flattering. I returned this item and bought the infantino wrap and tie and it is SO comfortable. I have back pain from both of my pregnancies and I used to use the bijorn but it made my back hurt so much. This infantino is WONDERFUL and it puts absolutely no strain on your back.

5 Stars Love it!
Very user friendly and totally worth the money. I use it everywhere I go and have used it with both my infant and my two and a half year old.

2 Stars Disappointed!
I really had high hopes for this carrier. I searched and searched until I finally chose this one. To be honest, the fabric is way too thick and bulky. I find it causes my 4 month old and I to sweat entirely too much when we are attached! Also, I don’t feel he is very secure in it. I don’t want to make it too tight as that would be uncomfortable for me, but when just right, he feels a little unstable. After only half an hour, I feel my back starting to ache as well, I’m sure from the lack of support. This one is just not for me!!
