we have a kelty that we like so far. DS is 21-22 pounds... its got a lot of pockets in it for carrying other stuff too and DH wore it for a couple hours one day and was comfortable (he's 6'3"). I think i need to work on adjusting things more for me, because I wore it for only like half an hour before I wanted to take it off. (I'm 5'3")
DH loves our Deuter Kid Comfort II. I think they are on sale at REI right now as well. He said it's really comfortable, easily adjustable, and has plenty of storage too. He liked it more than the Kelty.

Love, love, love my Ergo. I can carry my 30ish lb daughter in it without it hurting my back. We got a couple Kelty's from a conisgnment sale, but we've never really used them.

We were using our ergo for our (then) 35lb 2 year old. They have been tested/used up to like 60 or 90 lb's.
Love It!
