What owners single out
In their words
“SUPER SUPER SUPER LIGHTWEIGHT! It is so soft, doesn’t feel bulky or rough. It is so easy to put on and take off, I bought 4 different carriers before this one and my baby would scream Bloody Mary in all of them and this one she loooooves! I mean we go shopping shopping I just carry her around the house it’s made everything so easy!”
Lupe · verified purchase · babybjorn.co.uk
“Our newborn absolutely loves this carrier! We purchased it after the original one we bought (different brand) was too large for our baby - it said they'd fit but they slipped down and felt unsupported at 6lb 8oz+. This one is easy to use whether you are fitting it alone or with someone else, it's easy to adjust and it's really comfortable to wear.”
