    Bought this as a Xmas present for my husband ready for our baby. He loved it. We both had a go at trying it on and it seems easy enough to use.

    This is a great carrier for newborns upwards. Our baby loved being in the carrier from the start as it meant she was close to us. I used this around the house and also when shopping. She always feels safe and secure. It is also easy to use and put on on your own. Would recommend

    I can do so much easily with this! Wish I had got one for my first baby. Taking the dogs for a walk, going to my allotment to feed my chickens, nipping to the shop. All made easier than having to lug her pram out every time

    Very comfortable to have on with baby in it, especially with a c section scar, doesn’t lean against it at all. Baby very comfortable and chilled out in it. Massive help!!! Easy to use!

    After trying various carriers/slings, this one was so easy to use with simple and clear instructions including step by step pictures. The price is unbelievable compared to others I’ve tried too. So pleased and relieved. 100% recommend.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersEasy to put together and put baby in, however if you have a bit of a tummy then baby doesn’t sit right in it. I also found because I’m short I couldn’t reach the handles to tighten the back straps without my husband. Probably works much better if you’re a bit taller and slimmer. Overall product did look good and sturdy and easy to use though.

    Very good product. Brought two, one for me and one for grandma, both of us think they are comfortable and easy to use. Baby very much enjoys being in it too, front or rear! Really great value for money, highly recommend

    I bought the product as an alternative to bulky strollers to go on walks with my newborn, and it was a great decision. It’s quick to put on and easily adjustable to any size. The best part is always having my baby close to my chest where he’s warm and cosy. It was also one of the only ways to get him to sleep and so I could get things done around the house. It’s easy to wash and is great value for money. I would recommend using it from 3 + months.

    Very good, easy to use, my little one is very happy in it, only downfall is now she doesn’t want to sit in pram, only wants to be picked up

    I love this! It’s so easy to use, comfy for me and my boy! He loves being upright and looking around, he also loves facing me and having cuddles, it helps him doze off being that close to me.
    This makes both our lives easier, if he wants to be with me and doesn’t want to be put down whilst I get on with things, he can be close to me and I can still do the little jobs.

    I bought two for my twins and my eldest daughter is in love with it. It’s is super comfortable and very easy to use. A very good value for the money.

    5.0 out of 5 stars It is Perfect!! Easy to use and the quality is amazing for the price

    Bought this baby carrier as a 2nd option as had purchased another baby carrier but that product didn’t work for me.
    Having previously purchased Redkite baby products before, I was happy with their items so thought the carrier would follow suit.
    Tried this carrier out with my 3month old daughter who does get fussy around daytime sleeping and she seems comfortable and supported in it – yet to have a sleep.
    Feels very secure and fits well when on.
    Not difficult to adjust straps and is very suitable for what I need.

    Received this yesterday.
    I have a 9 week old who gets very fussy in the evenings and likes to be rocked until asleep.
    I put baby into this last night and she did not cry once,actually fell asleep in it whilst I was still able to have my hands free and do bits around the house like bottles etc.
    Super comfy,great design! Best thing I’ve bought yet! Would recommend!

    I bought this carrier to replace our baby bjorn when our daughter was in a pavlik harness as the bjorn wasn’t “hip healthy”

    Great carrier especially for the price. It takes a little getting used to putting it in on your own but this is in comparison to how easy the bjorn was. Our baby enjoys the carrier and appears very comfortable whilst in it and it fits with her harness perfectly. Would definitely recommend.

    Always felt carriers a bit small for me before but this is a great fit, super comfy to wear and easy to put on alone. Perfect for walking the dog, school runs, if baby doesn’t want putting down when I’ve got stuff to do at home and shopping where trolleys don’t have suitable seating (like wholesalers) for a newborn. The price is awesome for such a useful and good quality product.

    Bought this as an alternative to a wrap around carrier as it just wasnt working for my baby. This was a far better choice for use easier to use and looks better.

    Good value for money which makes a difference from all the expensive ones out there! I like the fact that you can machine wash it. It’s also got 3 adjustments where the baby would sit which can be changed depending on the size of the baby.

    Lightweight and easy to use. For me I find it a little uncomfortable at times as it rubs under the arms but it’s bearable. Great fit as I’m a larger woman and it’s hard to find good fitting carriers for plus size ladies.

    Used for the first time today with my six week old and felt one hundred percent safe. Adjustable for your comfort and more importantly babies safety. Baby fell right to sleep and I was hands free the entire time.

    Exactly as described and a bargain Price too

    Amazing price for a carrier, used several times now. Baby is 6 months and she loves it, comfortable for both of us. I’d say if you’re above a size 20 it may not fit though!

    Just had twins. Bought 2 and both myself and hubby are happy with product. Only thing we would say is the expansion could go a little wider for comfort. Mine is fine but wouldn’t suit anyone over a female size 22 I think. So easy to use. Only used with baby facing me yet but I imagine having out will be just as good

    Bought this for baby with reflux to allow to be held but could carry on with home life I.e cleaning. Very comfortable and easy to ensemble. I was impressed to be able to do it myself. Would definitely recommend.

    Good carrier for the price.
    Relatively easy to use, I’ve only used it baby facing outwards at the moment, She enjoyed it. Did find a few days later she had very slight bruising on her thighs, maybe it’s because she has very chubby legs And it was her 1st time in I don’t know, but it never bothered her.

    Golden Review Award: 10 From Our UsersNeeded a new carrier for my 1 year old. This one lasts up to 15kg which is great and is approved by the hip dysplasia institute as being hip healthy. All at a bargain price so really nothing to complain about. Is it top of the range with loads of nifty little details? No but it’s comfortable and does the job and I know my baby is happy and safe in it without spending a fortune on something used occasionally so that’s all that matters.

    This has been a real gamechanger for me and my wife . Our 4 month yr old boy doesn’t like to be put down he was crying a lot . Since we have had this carrier we are able to carry in doing everyday stuff with a happy baby . He also doses of too sleep easier which is also a bonus . This looks and feels better than the other carriers we have seen . Was joking to my wife saying it’s probably the best 25 we have ever spent which probably isn’t far wrong . Worth every penny .

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersGood value for money. Our five month old baby seems happy and comfortable in it. Easy to adjust. Bigger sizing than others and would fit many sizes (I would say up to around a UK 24). Would purchase this item again.

    This made carrying my 6 month old so easy, my wife suffers from a bad back and it has relieved a lot of the strain using this. My daughter seems comfortable in it too.

    Golden Review Award: 38 From Our UsersBrilliant carrier and so comfortable, my baby is 5 weeks old and fits great and she loved it! So easy to put on and put baby in and also easy to adjust why baby is in it. I had a c section so still tender but this didn’t hurt at all.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant!
