Go for it if you...
You want one carrier that lasts from newborn to toddler without an infant insert
You walk or wear for long stretches and need a hip belt that saves your back
You live somewhere warm and want the most breathable fabric
Independent fabric certification matters to you
You want an inexpensive, cozy wrap for the newborn months
You want skin-to-skin closeness at home
You don't mind retightening and learning to wrap
The main thing to know
At full price this is a premium carrier; the breathable mesh and full newborn-to-toddler range are what you are paying for.
It is a stretchy wrap, so it can loosen as you wear it, is not rated for back carries, and needs frequent checks to keep a young baby's airway clear.
Skip this if you...
You want the lowest-cost option for occasional short carries
You prefer the cocooned feel of a wrap for a brand-new newborn
You want a structured carrier with the firmest airway support for a newborn
You want independently certified fabric
You want a carrier that lasts into toddlerhood
Neither of these quite what you're looking for?
