The Lotus innovated with two features: backpack carry and side-zip door. The backpack design is game-changing for airports—hands-free with crib on back. The side zipper lets you lie next to baby's level or reach in without lifting. GreenGuard Gold certified for low chemical emissions. Mesh sides for breathability. At 13 lbs, it matches BabyBjorn's weight. Setup is truly 15 seconds. The mattress is thinner than we'd like for regular use (upgrade available). At , it's comparable to BabyBjorn. Some parents find the zipper door a safety concern once baby is mobile (they can unzip)—Guava addressed this with a lockable zipper.
