Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Anyone have an Infantino baby carrier?

My mom's very sweet co-worker wants to get us something for the baby.  She offered to actually buy the Baby Bjorn on my registry, but neither my mom nor I want her to spend that much.  Both of the Infantino carriers are significantly cheaper and have a pretty good track record on the BRU website, but I'd still like to know if anyone here has used them?  Do you like them?  TIA!

  • Had it, hated it. ?We got the Bjorn instead. ?It's much sturdier and easier to use, imo.

  • I have and it works great for me. Maybe I just don't know what I'm missing, but I can't spend as much as a Bjorn is.

  • I don't know anything about the Infantino, but we're using a Moby wrap as a carrier and LOVE it. She's asleep in it now, which is why I can type! Granted, it won't last as long as a structured carrier, but if you're looking for something cheaper for now, you may want to look into it. I know a lot of people who HATE the baby bjorn, so we went with the ergo for our expensive structured carrier for when she's older.
  • There are MUCH better option on the market than the carriers they sell at BRU.  Look for a carrier with a full waist band that can be used in a front or back carry.  My personal favorite is a Connecta, the Beco is also a good one.  One of the more mainstream ones is the Ergo which people also love but I found that other carriers were more comfortable.  I can still use them with my 2 year old.
