Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is a great baby carrier that compares very well with the Ergobaby 360. I have both and will compare them in this review. General Design: Both the Ergo 360 and this BabyBjorn use roughly the same design, i.e. a thick hip-belt connected to a large fabric flap that has two shoulder straps that keep the flap (and baby) from falling forward. I was actually quite surprised in how similar the overall design of the BabyBjorn was to the Ergobaby. Because of these similarities, the way the baby's is distributed on your body is very similar and feel very similar to wear. So how are they different? Key Differences: The BabyBjorn has quick-release clasps at both the front side (front when wearing the baby in front) and top of the carrier. The Ergo 360 doesn't making the Bjorn easier to get in and out of. With the Ergo you place your hand over baby and then slip your arm out of each shoulder strap. It's very doable but just much easier to work the latches on the Bjorn than it is to wriggle out of the Ergo. Hip belt on the Ergo is Velcro with a safety buckle. I know many aren't a fan of this design, but I found it very easy to use. The Bjorn uses a hook-and-latch system that is easy to get in and out of but also requires either sucking in your tummy or loosening and retightening when you put it on. Adjustability: The BabyBjorn has a height adjust for infants of differing ages. When open you unzip the front flap from one position and re-zip it into another, longer/taller position. By default, it is set to the smaller child position. The Ergo does not have this adjustability. Seating position adjustment: The BabyBjorn uses two zippers at each side to adjust how babies legs hang, (very simple) while the Ergo uses two sets of buttons. Both systems work well. Material: Both are finished in soft and comfortable material but the front flap of the BabyBjorn has some stiffening reinforcement in it. Weight: The added clasps and reinforcement add to the weight of the BabyBjorn making it heavier to wear than the Ergo 360. I didn't notice the difference while wearing it, but if you're looking for the lightest load possible it's something to consider. Finally both have a front flat that can be folded down when baby is facing out. summary: Both are excellent carriers with the difference coming down to weight, simplicity, features and ease. I doubt you could go wrong with either and would recommend trying both on to see which works best for you. Finally, if you are like me and are a little confused by the instructions, both companies have YouTube videos on how to properly use these carriers. They take a lot of the guesswork out of strapping them on and I recommend those as well.
