InfantinoCarry On Active - Ergonomic Multi-Pocket Infant & Toddler Carrier, 8-40 lbs, with Padded Straps, Lumbar Belt Storage & Pacifier Loop

Wonderful baby carrier. My baby girl and I love using this carrier. We go for long walks and I put her in it to go shopping which is so much easier than anything else. She's so cute in it and happy. She so comfortable she even falls asleep in it easily and stays asleep. Sometimes during evening walks she wants to be facing in half way through the walk and I'm easily able to undo the buckles, turn her and snap her back in with one hand while holding her. I can get it on and snapped in the back without any assistance which makes going places a breeze. I haven't tried backpack carry position yet but that would definitely require someone's help. I had a wrap that I used a few times when she was a newborn but she didn't like the other positions once she was big enough so I bought a carrier that was pretty inexpensive and a strap broke the first time I put it on so I sent that back and decided to finally buy the Infantino Advanced Flip 4 in 1. I saw this carrier right after I purchased it. The zippered pockets had me wondering if I'd like this better but the Flip had so many reviews so I wanted to try it out. It was good but after reading the reviews for this one I started comparing and decided to purchase it to try it out. This one is much more comfortable especially for long periods of time. I walked her in both for a mile and half way through I started to feel it in my back with the Flip but this one was a breeze. I've worn it for extended amounts of time shopping and still don't feel a thing. It's comfortable and distributes the weight well. She's comfortable and has room. She really enjoys being in this and with the others she got fussy. I also realized I really did want and need the zippered pockets on this one which is lacking on the flip. I don't have to carry anything else while I'm using it. It doesn't bother her to use the pockets nor does it look bulky. It's also not hot. I live in Tampa, Florida and I have not had any issues with sweat or heat except at the completion of our walks I feel a little heated but that is to be expected when two bodies are next to each other and getting excercise. Other than that it has been breathable. While I haven't tried any more expensive carriers I am very happy with this one and don't see the need in anything more than the cost of this one as it works perfectly. I wish I had this from the beginning as it's much more practical than the wrap. I definitely recommend this carrier and while it doesn't have nearly the amount of reviews as the flip, I've tried both and this one is by far better and doesn't cost that much more but the price is worth it.

This was acquired for an upgrade from the new born size carrier for a longer child. We tried multiple carriers, including much more expensive models of other brands (we found that those other carriers had the child in a very uncomfortable wide leg sitting position and our grandchild did NOT like that style).The harness provides a bit of waist support which is critical if using for a long period of time. The shoulder pads could use a little more padding if used for a longer period of time. However the pricing and efficacy of this carrier makes it an attractive and functional baby carrier.This carrier can also be used as a backpack or front pack - which makes it more versatile.Highly Recommended.

My husband and I both love using this carrier on outings with our little one and for contact naps when we want to be hands free. This carrier has excellent support, isn’t very bulky, and seems to be comfortable for our babe!

Great quality, very durable soft fabric. It’s also very lightweight although a bit heavier than some others on the market. It works well for the purpose but has left my baby’s legs red if he is wearing shorts in this. Also the clasps have pinched him on occasion and I would have preferred it to have a bit better head support. This did stain very easily. When wearing this my baby is very secure and I’m able to do tasks using both my hands. Overall I love being able to do tasks hands free and for that I would say it’s worth the value of the money especially with all the pockets provided but I do hope the company is able to look into some of the other issues specified. This is a good item to use for busy moms who need to take out the trash, or go grocery shopping etc.

I love this carrier. It is comfortable, easy to adjust, and (dare I say?) stylish. I chose this version over Infantino's basic one because of the pockets, extra padding, and sturdier weight allowance for long-term use. I wear this all the time--around the house, at the store, out walking--and my one-month-old loves it and will nap while I have my hands free to do what I need. The buckles make it easy to get on and off, and I like that the straps roll up and secure with the loops at the end so they stay out of the way. I noticed other reviews commented on the long straps, but if you roll them up as intended this is not an issue and in fact it feels and looks less "strappy" than other carriers I've tried that didn't roll up like this one. With my first baby I used a hand-me-down Baby Bjorn, but it was a bit uncomfortable, didn't adjust as securely, and didn't have a backpack carry option for older infant/toddler. I also recently borrowed a KatyLand carrier from my sister to try, because she loves it, but for me it was strappy, chafed my arms, and required the use of a newborn insert which (aside from the added cost) was bulky and awkward. I'd had my eye on this one and decided to go for it. I'm so glad I did, this is definitely a keeper!

I like this one better than the base model infantino carrier. It feels more sturdy and secure and has better padding. It’s very adjustable and when I put my son in it he falls asleep right away. I’m a 5’5”, 155 lb mom and it fits me with plenty of room to spare. Love the pockets for phone, keys, snacks. I do wish they had included a snap-on piece of fabric that goes on your chest between baby’s face and mom/dad - if your baby is pukey or drools a lot you may want to put a washcloth or burp cloth there so you don’t get your shirt dirty. I plan to take this with me on a flight next week and i don’t expect any issues.

It is easy to use and pretty comfortable for both baby and I. Easy to adjust and supports baby well. Lightweight and easy to pack in a diaper bag. Good value.
