We bought this baby carrier at Toys R Us at a discount because it was an opened package. We have had other baby carriers (two Snugglis and a Enfantino sling) and haven't had much luck with any of them. Both of my babies went (and are going) through these phases where they don't want to be put down - I searched high and wide looking for that special carrier that maybe had a little more back support than the ones that I had tried. We really wanted to get a Baby Bjorn - but it really wasn't in our budget.

We ended up finding this baby carrier in the clearance section and only spent $8 on the usually almost $40 carrier. When we got home we of course tried it on and immediately liked the design and the overall "rugged" feel of the carrier. Not only is this rugged, it had two kinds of secure snaps on each side which make you feel a little safer with your newborn baby on the front of you.

Over all, this is a great product but has limited back support. I have yet to find a product that evens out the weight carried in the front as to limit back injury. If you are tall, however, this product will work great - it is a much better fit than the other products we have tried.

That was a great deal just for an opened box, way to go!
