Evenflo Snugli Review Summary
As an inexpensive option in the sea of
baby carriers, the Evenflo Snuglie Baby Carrier receives mixed reviews from Viewpoints parents. The lightweight Evenflo Snuglie is described by many as “durable” and “soft.” While the Snuglie “may not be as comfortable for every body shape,” such as moms with a more petit frame, it can be a “lifesaver for both back and arms.” With leg holes that may cut into baby’s legs, and straps that can strain mom, the Evenflo Snuglie may not be for everyone. Compare the Snuglie to several styles including the
Baby Bjorn and
Sling style wraps to see which is right for you.

We received the Evenflo Snugli baby carrier as a shower gift before our baby was born. We love it! We began using it when she was about a month old. At that point she would face toward us, and she would often simply fall asleep. We could then do household chores or take a walk around the block. — We began facing our daughter outward in the Snugli when she could hold her head up quite well (about four months). She really loves being able to look around and see what is going on around her. She is now eleven months old and still loves it. She…

We have three carriers: a handmade one similar to a Maya wrap, another handmade sling, and this. My huaband prefers this; he feels more balanced in it than the slings. It isn't easy to adjust, so I never use it, as he's 8 inches and 75 lbs bigger. Our baby really seems to enjoy it. She's fallen asleep in all three positions, and doesn't seem to be uncomfortable. When we go camping this spring, I'm sure we'll bring it; it's lightweight enough that it's not an extra strain, and she is securely held. However, like all carriers, it may not be as comfortable for every body…

I have used other baby carriers and nothing compares to the Evenflo Snugli! I have the Eddie Bauer edition and I absolutely love it. The price is amazing for the quality and comfort this carrier has to offer. I did alot of research before buying this Snugli because all of the other carriers I have ever used have not offered enough back support. The Snugli has a band that goes around your waist, as well as the cross over straps for your back. The material that the carrier is made out of is very soft and comfortable for the baby. — My daughter loved to be…

a first-time parent, loving this product, cost-conscious
I received an Evenflo Snugli as a gift from my mother before my son was born. I used it for the first time when he was only a week old, because I had to travel by bus to a medical appointment quite far from my house. Even when he was that young, the Snugli was secure enough that I didn't have to worry about him being too small...and now that he is 5 months old, facing outward, he still fits comfortably in it. — — I also love the multiple points at which you can adjust the fit of the carrier; my boyfriend and I both use it, and have found the necessary adjustments to…

I bought this product over a stroller. My car had broke down and was not able to be fixed so I had to catch the bus (public transportation) for a while. This was so helpful I could walk to the bus stop with ease and my son was very comfortable in it and I think he actually enjoyed it. I didn't have to worry about folding a stroller or pushing a stoller up and down the street and when I needed to stop at a store for any reason I was in and out in a flash. Plus my son usually fell asleep with no problems on some of those bus rides and it was a lot easier to just carry him like that…

I absolutely cannot stand the snugli, it is a total disgrace to the baby carrying industry. I used one when my daughter was smaller(maybe a month or two after birth) that I had received as a shower gift. I couldn't stand the straps digging into my shoulders, the baby's weight is hanging by the crotch which can cause hip displacia and other hip joint problems and the distribution of the babies body was not even she would often be slouching or more to one side. I absolutely would not purchase this product for a friend or family member, however I do recommend the mya wrap or a mei-tye wrap they…

My daughter loves the snugli, although my back disagrees. My daughter eventually grew out of the baby sling, so we decided to get a carrier that she could see the world in. The carrier does come in handy for those time that you don't wanna lug around a car seat and stroller and is very comfortable for the baby, but after awhile, reallly does a number on your back. On top of that, when baby falls asleep in the front facing position, it's VERY HARD to switch her around. The fold down flap doesn't help much, and most times my baby is just kinda dangling forward. Overall I like this carrier, but…

This product is great! My baby loves to be held, he's almost 2 months so he needs constant attention, so if it weren't for this product I would never get anything done! Its easy to use and adjust. After walking with him in it after a while he falls right asleep. I've only been using it for 1 month but it seems pretty durable and I haven't had any problems so far. Its not too bad on the back either, which I was worried about. I wasn't sure if my baby would like being in a carrier so I just got this one to try out since its only $20, and its been great, no…

I used this product with my daughter until she was 1 year old! She is the youngest of 4 so we are always on the go. This carrier has held up through hiking, days at the park, sporting events and her older siblings classroom activities and field trips. I haved cleaned house and done laundry also while wearing baby. I have also gone on endless walks trying to get her to stop crying, she would calmn down once she saw me put this carrier on and nap every time we went for a walk. — This carrier is soft, durable and reasonably priced! And well worth it…

I couldn't use this carrier. I am 5'2" and weight 100 lbs and I could not make the straps tighter so it didn't fit right. It hung loosly and would give me a bad back ache. — It is a nice, cheap, carrier though for someone with a bigger "frame". —…
