First of all let's use some common sense here. This product is not intended for you to go strolling around with the damn car seat at your side, that's just silly.

Second, DISREGARD comments or opinions from those that don't have this or even use it. Their opinions should carry zero weight, would you take their advice on food to eat which they themselves don't eat?

Third, those that say just take them out and put them in a sling obviously have babies which never wake up and start crying when disturbed. These are the kind of people that probably let their kids scream and cry everywhere and think you should also enjoy their kids too.

I have four kids, 23, 18, 14 and 4 months so I'm not some newbie parent talking out of my arse. This is the first time I've had something like this and let me tell you it is EXTREMELY HANDY. I've been using this since the first month, just bought another car seat and have not transferred the strap to the new seat and what a PITA it is carrying the awkward car seat with your arm or hand compared to having it over my shoulder with two hands completely free. I just bought more velcro and will be transferring the strap tonight, the velcro is simply there to retain the cradle/strap in position, it is not for supporting the load.

It is great for short walks from the car to other people's houses, while visiting the doctor's office so you don't have to wheel around a stroller if you don't wish to, etc. It's not a replacement for a sling or baby Bjorn. I can carry heavy items so the weight is not an issue for me personally but I can see how it could seem a little heavy, my wife says it is a little weighty at times but the convenience is well worth it in her opinion as well. Select a quality lightweight car seat and it'll be that much lighter.

The usefulness of this item was quite a surprise. I wasn't sure how much I'd like it but after owning one for 4 months I am quite pleased and happy to recommend it. You can still carry the seat by the handle if you want but you generally won't after putting this on.

To much trouble to install. Don't like it pulling me down. Felt like I would fall over.

This is a great product, that has made my life much easier in the few weeks I've had it. It is easier to get my kids in & out of the car, and to walk my oldest (3) in at preschool & pick him up after school. I love my sling for long periods out of the car, but taking my now 8 month old out of the car seat & into the sling just to run in to preschool or go into the house was not practical. Now I can put the seat on my shoulder with the flying falcon, and still have both hands free to help my 3 year old in and out of the car, hold his hand in busy parking lots, or just to carry bags & things into the house quicker & easier! I find the weight of the car seat (we have a Graco SafeSeat) much easier & more comfortable to carry with this than with the handle that is part of the seat. My shoulders & elbows were sore, and I had lots of bruises on my lower legs from bumping into them with the car seat before. Now I don't have any pain, though if I try to stand or walk for long with this on, it gets VERY heavy. My 8 month old seems to like this, too. He's got a better view of the world, and a smoother ride than when I had to carry the car seat in my hand. I would (and do) recommend this to parents - particularly if they have one or more toddler/preschooler.
