Customer Review: perfect baby sling
I purchased this baby sling because of its adjustable strap. I put my son in the pouch when he was a week old. We both loved it from the start. He is 13 months old and we still use it regularly. Now, he can ride on my hip and both my hands are free. This is a versatile and comfortable sling for mom and baby. The lightweight material is great for any weather. I highly recommend this sling.
Customer Review: Easy to Use and Fashionable
I was drawn in by the affordable price of $29 by the original manufacturer seller here on this site, but fell in love with the ease of use, quality, and gorgeous beauty of the fashionable fabric of this product. This a good ring sling for a beginning baby wearer! It is a hybrid sling with both some of the easier pouch sling qualities, but the adjustability of a ring sling. The partially closed tail makes it that you can't get the fabric twisted and tangled and makes it easy to thread. The sling edges is padded so the baby doesn't get red marks on his legs or head like the non-padded slings, but the padding is very light compared to other padded edged slings which normally are overwhelmingly thick and make you hot. The light padding actually goes through the rings unlike the padding of other padded slings which normally don't, making this sling as adjustable to as tightly small as you want to make it. Besides the light padding not being hot, the fabric was breathable for both the baby and me. Very important when you live in year long hot Florida like me.

Moms and dads can now be hands-free and hip all at the same time with this versatile, adjustable sling. The one-size-fits-all design grows with your little one (6-25 lbs.) thanks to the multiple carrying positions and the adjustable padded strap. By evenly distributing weight across your shoulders and back, it ensures a comfy ride for you and your baby. Made of super-soft fabric, the deep-pocket style allows you to move freely, and the padded elastic trim keeps baby safe, comfy, and cozy. It even has a handy front pocket for stowing cash and credit cards. Convenient for errands or simply bonding with baby at home, it's easy to fold up and pack for trips near and far.
Customer Review: This is what I hoped it would be!!
This was delivered while I was feeding little Nathan. I told him that a cool package had arrived and promised him we would open it after he was done eating. I swore up an down that he would love it and lo and behold, as soon as I put him in it he totally got chill and he's half asleep now as I write this. I only introduced him to this sling 5 minutes ago. I dont write reviews by the way. But this was just to fabulous to now tell everyone. It feels sturdy, my baby likes it, my hands are free as I type this and he doesn't have to be so far away from me, crying because he wants to be held. Its good for baby and for Mommy!!
Customer Review: Worked for my Colic-y baby!
I am so glad I decided on this sling. I tried 2 others: the INfantino Sling rider (Which only satisfied my newborn for a week) and the HotSling, too stiff and no adjustable straps. I ordered this solely based on the picture and that it's endorsed by Dr. Sears. I got lucky - this sling has been a GOD SEND! IT's my baby's favorite way to sleep. She was very colic-y from the beginning and this was the only way to calm her down and get her to sleep. We would swaddle her and get her in. We'd even lay her down after falling asleep safely in the sling still into her crib. It's been perfect! I'm still using it with her at 7 mos. True, if you have back problems, it's prob not going to be a positive experience for you. Also, baby may not take to the sling right at first, but keep trying it and she'll eventually cozy into it. Take this sling shopping with you, to church, to friends, restaurants - it's perfect for nestling baby so she feels safe. And you can try other positions and styles of wearing it as your baby grows. I rec. getting Dr. Sear's Baby Book as a companion to show different baby-wearing methods that work with this sling.
