3 out of 5 stars

My intention is to give this a fair review. I've given 3 stars to the effectiveness of the carrier to carry my baba inward and outwardly very comfortably for both of us. Some carriers have a bulky bottom strap but overall the carrier is very light. It's also more affordable than some competitor carriers out there.

Where it loses 2 starts for me:
1.) The colour of the carrier on the picture is different to that in person. The grey is very dull and has a light purple undertone which doesn't go well with the very dark beige/khaki colour. Because wearing the carrier out is what I'll be doing, having it go with the majority of my clothes is important. So it misses a star for me in terms of what's shown and what you receive.

2.) The clips have a double button function. In other words, you don't just use 2 fingers to unclip it. You have to push in a button on the clip and then use the 2 fingers to unclip it. This makes taking off the carrier difficult when you're alone because you need 2 hands and somehow have to hold your baba which actually just makes it impossible to do alone. Very inconvenient when your baby is fussing, you need the loo (literally) or you're a single mom/out alone. I know the reason for this is probably extra safety. But functionality and realistic convenience is key for parents when it comes to products like these.

Baby Carrier

Perfectly design.

Good for mother errands

The carrier is decent. Baby is comfortable for short durations. I only use it for quick errands and short periods. I have washed my carrier a few times as babies will be babies and the one I bought in April 2023 is looking tired now. it is worth the price though but know its not an Ergo or Bjorn.
