I bought this while on vacation with my 9 month old. We were at the ocean and I needed something to keep him close and secure. I felt like he was falling out of it all the time. I also found it to hurt my back and shoulder when I used it for more then 20 minutes. It was not easy to adjust when he was in it and harder to get it right when he was out of it.
