BabyBjörn Carrier City Black

Product Information

Some carriers use lower-quality fasteners, zippers, fabrics, and stitching, and don't do well with repeated wearing. That being said, looking at the Ergobaby Carrier vs BABYBJORN Baby Carrier, they both meet some of that criteria in similar ways.

The brand offers enough of a range to suit different demands, baby weights and styles and you do get what you pay for with a BabyBjörn.The Onya pure can support a newborn as small as 7 pounds and toddlers and bigger kiddos all the way up to 45 pounds. Our reviews consider short-term hands-on use, and reviews from long-term use, pulling together a wide range of data regarding these safety considerations. First, for the first few months, you want your newborn infant to adopt the C spinal alignment, which means there is a nice curvature to your baby's back, with legs tucked up.

This feature is amazing for toddlers who can sit up independently and is unique to the Onya carrier.Yes, the strap at the bottom allows you to adjust for the height of the baby and is a really useful feature. For us, the BabyBjorn Miracle was indeed an improvement on the Original, but still didn't win us over compared to more versatile carriers like Beco Baby Gemini and even the ERGObaby Original. Rest assured that as doctoral-level scientists, parents, and the owners of this small business, we have over 20 years of combined experience testing and reviewing over 2400 different baby and toddler products. They’re also machine washable and can be used for a long time; they have a minimalistic, Scandinavian design and are crafted in materials that feel soft and gentle against your baby’s skin and are safe to taste.

Unlike the Ergobaby, the Baby Bjorn also offers a front carrying facing out position, which is the most ideal for some babies. We were also really impressed with the three huge zippered pockets, big enough to fit a modern smartphone. Plus, you get a convenient storage pocket and a hood that can be used to protect your child from the sun or to simply allow him or her to sleep while you wear them in the carrier, which they will inevitably want to do. Full disclosure: Some of these carriers, including the Contours, Beco, Ergobaby, and Moby models, were sent to us as free test samples by the manufacturer.The waist belt and lumbar support did take some of the strain off of our shoulders compared to the BabyBjorn Original, but it still wasn't enough relative to competing carriers. Please use a mild, eco-certified detergent, strictly follow dosing instructions and preferably avoid fabric softener.

The buckles and adjustments were high quality and easy to use, and the fabric and neoprene straps were comfortable and supportive. Putting it on, the adjustments were suitable for both me, a relatively petite mom, and my husband over 6 feet tall and 220 pounds. Not just cool-looking, but also super cool for your baby, with a 3D mesh to provide excellent airflow during the warmer months, and a zip-up panel to maximize warmth in the cooler months. It also has adjustments for the shoulder straps right under the armpits, helping you customize the fit even when wearing your baby.

The Moby Fit goes on like a t-shirt over the head, and then you adjust the sizing by tugging the fabric through two rings positioned at the back sides. Its unique easy on/off design is very quick and simple - all adjustments are done at the front and with one quick pull of the straps. For infants, it supports the neck and head in the very same way as the Moby Wrap, using super wide shoulder straps to let your baby snuggle up to your chest.
