    Advantages Advantages Really comfortable baby carrier, lovely bright colours available

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Can be very hot in Summer

    We bought this baby carrier/sling on the recommendation of a friend who had one and raved about it. We already had a Mothercare own-brand baby carrier, but found that it did not support our newborn baby particularly well and felt a little loose and unstable. This meant he cried when we put him in it, a problem which continued for several months, as he was quite a small baby and it didn't fit snugly even on it's tightest setting. However, the Kari-me was a totally different experience. It is basically one long strip of stretchy fabric. You have to wrap it around yourself and knot it in a ... more

    Advantages Advantages comfortable,adjustable

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not readily available in high street stores

    I bought a Kari-Me after seeing a very comfortable looking baby sleeping in one. I had a chat to the babies mother and decided to give it a try. I did already own a few slings so carrying my baby was not a new experience. My favourite sling at the time was a pouch sling, which enabled my baby to lie in a cradled position. This meant that I was delighted to discover, when my Kari-Me arrived that I was able to tie the baby into it in a pouch-style position and not just in the upright position usually seen. The sling is a long length of jersey cotton material, which is relatively stretchy ... more

    Advantages Advantages Versatile, fashionable, practical, comfortable

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Takes a bit of practise

    I won't go into too much detail about the benefits and joys of baby wearing/slinging as all this information can be found by searching Google. However, I can highly recommend this sling instead of the more conventional baby carriers available on the high street. The Kari-Me is the only wrap-around sling I have used but I am very happy with it. I chose this sling instead of the Hug-a-Bub wrap-around sling which is very similar because it was cheaper but looked the same and had the same benefits. I bought the old style Kari-Me in purple. The new style has finished edges. The Kari-Me is unique ... more

    Advantages Advantages Really Comfy, Great for heavy babies, adaptable to many positions

    Disadvantages Disadvantages wrapped in a lot of fabric

    I purchased this carrier recently after my baby got too heavy for my Baby Bjorn carrier. I was interested in the weight distribution which claimed to be better than other carriers. Well may I asure you that this really is the case! My baby is 20lbs now (4 months old!) and I can use this for a few hours without getting back ache! The fabric wrap around system means that the weight is distributed around you waist and on your back rather than just pulling on your shoulders. Also by spreading the straps you can lessen the pressure making this much more confortable than any other carrier I have ... more

    Advantages Advantages very comfortable, many positions, excellent for newborns and toddlers, one size fits all

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none

    Kari Me is the forth baby carrier I tried with my two children. I wish I had it with my first baby. It's by far more comfortable than anything else, you just don't feel the weight of your baby at all (mine is weighing 22lb now). the weight is distributed so well, and the fabric is so soft that you can carry your baby for many hours! I have been using it for breastfeeding and calming my colicky baby. Now I use it mainly for shopping and travelling and my baby is old enough to use side and back carry. I love this sling because you can use it daily and it's good for long term, so you don't have ... more
