Mumgaroo Baby Carrier Newborn To Toddler,Ergonomic 6-In-1 Baby Carrier With Hip Seat Complete All Seasons,Adjustable&Removable Baby Holder Backpack With Baby Hood 0-36 Months(Grey)

It’s not flimsy at all! It was a bit tricky to figure out at first and thought my lower back was going to be in pain (since most of the weight is on my lower back) but after adjusting the shoulder straps, baby is secure and no back pain!

This is a great hip carrier with some pros and cons. Overall it keeps the weight off my back and arms and on my hip and leg winch is way more tolerable. I can hold her for at least twice as long just using the hip carrier.The two biggest cons are 1. It is hard to put on by yourself wear it feels secure, and if you are wearing a jacket it is twice as hard because it gets in the way(not impossible but often takes 1-3 tries) 2. The structure is a little bulky for travelThe pockets are convenient and I love that it’s convertible. I also like the small belt that goes around her when using it as a hip carrier.

better for when the baby’s a couple months old but when i started using this, it literally saved my back! it’s so fast and easy to put on you don’t need any help. if wraps are hard for you to put on then i suggest this, it’s also the same product as all those expensive name brands just for less money

I wanted to get a hip belt seat for carrying my baby, even just wearing around the house, so as to lessen the strains on my hip and arms when taking baby from room to room and so forth. There are so many options on Amazon, and so many with similar price range and ratings, that I decided to test out a variety. I got 12 options to try - All have hip belt option functionality, but they differ in that some also had a supportive shoulder strap for mom, some have added "seatbelt" for baby, some had option to become full-body/hands-free baby carriers, some had more pockets than others etc.I compared them based on look and feel of materials quality; buckle, strap, velcro and zipper quality and function; pocket functionality/practicality; comfort of wearing the belt/harness; comfort for baby (i.e. hip seat padding etc); ease of getting the belt/harness on and off and ease of getting baby in and out of it. The 12 I tested were from the following brands: Sunevo, BabyMust, Cloud Mom Inc., Gabesy, Bebamour, Zooawa, N++A, Tico, DaDa, Talenbeen,Mumgaroo, and Growns.In the end, the one I decided to keep was by brand Bebamour.But here is my review for this belt...Mumgaroo full carrier with hip seatNicely padded baby seat. Side zip pocket no bigger than on the Bebamour, but also has bottle pocket and under seat pocket. Zippers are smooth and can be operated one-handed when carrying baby. The under seat pocket does expose the seat structure when unzipped though, so there's worry of it popping out. Soft material with padding around the leg holes for baby, similar to the Bebamour. Comes with drool bib attachments like Bebamour. There's less mesh material than Bebamour, so maybe it holds up better long term? Full body harness portion secures with zipper and buckles as opposed to zipper and velcro that Bebamour does, so maybe a tiny bit more secure? Strap style is like seat belt material, so very sturdy, but a little slippery. Sun hood has weird clips that it connects to, which leave some slack that isn't adjustable, and isn't very intuitively easy to hook and unhook while it's on you. Neck/shoulder buckle is reachable without assistance even with my short arms. This belt also has bonus safety seat belt for when doing the hip carry only option - but worth noting this is not meant to be trusted as a fully hands free option when hip carrying, and shouldn't create false sense of security! Hip seat's support is a metal or plastic frame as opposed to foam chunk like the Bebamour and a couple of the others. While this allows for there to be a pocket underneath the seat, I found it also puts more stress against the wearer's hip. I tried readjusting the whole hip belt and sliding it down onto my hip bones more, which made the hip seat a little more comfortable against me, but put more strain on my low back when holding baby. I don't believe it's meant to be worn that low. Consequently, the frame of the baby seat is probably too uncomfortable to make it worthwhile for long-term use. Although everything else about it is decent, and I would put it almost on par, for the most part, with the Bebamour carrier.

This carrier always comes to my rescue when my child wants to be taken in hand. I don't leave the house without it, because at any moment my daughter may want to be taken in hand. It is also great when you need to carry some purchases in a stroller, and carry the child in a carrier. Good product quality, it is comfortable. Just love it
