Product Description

Useful both indoors and out, this safe carrier grows with your baby thanks to an adjustable buckle that offers the ultimate in comfort. The carrier provides safe and snug head support for small infants and versatile inward- and outward-facing orientations for older babies. It's quick and easy to put on and take off, as all adjustments are made from the front. Wide padded straps distribute the weight evenly over your back and shoulders. The carrier can be used from the first week for babies who measure at least 21 inches tall and weigh at least 8 pounds. The removable front lets you put sleeping babies down without disturbing their peaceful snooze. You can even nurse in privacy without removing your baby from the carrier. This Baby Björn carrier is made of 100 percent cotton and is machine washable.

4.0 out of 5 stars Gold for me, Bronze for baby - but still worth it, March 5, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: BABYBJÖRN Navy Carrier (Baby Product)

First I tried a Snugli, then a sling thing and then different brand of front loading carrier that was less expensive. All had MAJOR flaws in the design - the Snugli killed my back, the sling thing swallowed the baby up like a giant fish mouth and also hung too low no matter what I did, and the last carrier was so complicated I just gave up, frustrated. It literally had two pages of instructions and diagrams.

When I finally broke down and bought the Baby Bjorn it was luxurious! The above problems -- all gone! They say this is the gold standard in baby carriers and I must agree.

The only problems other parents and I have had are that: 1) the baby isn't too crazy about it and, 2)one size does not fit all. I think it's either the plastic snap-lock contraption that's rubbing their little legs in the crotch, or that it's too confining or tight for baby. But I was persistent, and pretty soon my baby adjusted. We've been on countless walks with it and he's content for about 30 minutes to an hour max. Also, larger folks will need to get the larger strap system, purchased separately.

I'm going to keep searching for the perfect one, but those seeking a great all-around carrier, this one is worth the money...

There's a reason why the Bjorn baby carrier is touted as the best on the market; it's lightweight, soft, machine washable and comfortable as all get out. I've tried the Snuggli brand before, and was less than impressed. The criss-cross back design of the Bjorn carrier distributes baby's weight better, leaving your shoulders pain-free. I can literally wear this for hours and not get fatigued or sore. This is also the only brand of carrier that will support a baby up to 33 pounds (of course, by then I hope he's walking on his own!)Being a total sucker for anything plaid, I purchased the navy blue and tartan pattern (most carriers I've seen are too cutsie-wootsie for my taste). If you're looking for a baby carrier, look no further than Baby Bjorn. It's worth the extra money- trust me.

5.0 out of 5 stars A "must have", June 20, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: BABYBJÖRN Navy Carrier (Baby Product)

The Baby Bjorn is a wonderful product. My son loves all the attention he gets when I'm out running errands. He gets to see the world rather than just seeing bits and pieces from his stroller. He's 17 pounds now and we are still using it every day. When you use it for a newborn make sure you leave their hands inside to rest on against your chest and they'll be more comfortable and maybe even fall asleep.
