Design & Style

Pros:

• "looks amazing in this color."
• "It's a gift for my friend's firstborn baby girl! She likes it very much! She never thought she could get such a pretty gift!"

• "This carrier is so user friendly, lightweight, and stylish."
• "I love everything about this carrier; easy to use, cute, simple, stylish."
• "I love the colors, it’s very complimentary and not one of your cheesy baby designs."

Cons:

• "The black cotton is a lint magnet!"
• "Maybe the regular material is better, but I do not recommend the mesh."
• "The only slight downside is that you can get pretty hot wearing it."
• "It’s also much harder on your back and shoulders."
• "There is a hard piece of plastic where the baby sits my baby cannot get comfortable or settle in it."
• "color is amazing, more like a peach than a pink."

Usability & Convenience

Pros:

• "Even with daily/weekly use, the BABYBJÖRN Baby Carrier Mini, 3D Mesh, Anthracite is AMAZING!!"

• "Can easily be done one handed while holding baby and he loves it!"

Cons:

• "DO NOT BUY THIS CARRIER!"

• "It’s a lot of steps to put this item on. And very confusing to put the straps on."
• "Baby can only be carried in front of you."
• "It’s impossible to take baby out without waking if she falls asleep in it."
• "Also, the leg openings seemed to cut into my baby's legs and it is not stretchy or soft there and no way to loosen it up so I would not want to have baby in it for any extended period of time."
• "How is there no instructions on how to use this upon receiving!!!! It’s nice but not okay!!!"
