Cons

• It lasts a short period of time, and is used for babies who are in their first months only.
• Not recommended for use for people who have spine problems, as it could have a negative effect on their back.

User experience

• Made with high quality material that’s yet affordable. I use it with my son and he feels comfortable in it, and whenever he sees it, he gets excited to be carried in it.
• In different feedbacks, users said that their experience with the baby carrier was not pleasant, and the dimensions were not adjusted for newborns. I felt that the waist belt was narrow and tight, while the areas of the shoulders and back were very wide. So the baby is not well-adjusted in it, which means I had to support the baby with my hand most of the time by holding the carrier. Therefore it is recommended to use it for babies younger than 4 months.
