These are on sale on zulily over the next couple days. I had every intention of getting my sister-in-law a stretchy wrap and an ergo for her baby, due in March- someone has to be the bw-ing advocate in this family. :-) I've been watching baby steals and haven't seen Ergos on there in a while, and then I saw the Snugli seated carrier on sale today for $28. It has the same shape as my ergo and really looks the same, but I know nothing about the quality. Any experience or input? TIA!
Re: Snugli seated baby carrier
I don't know anything about it but...at $28 (even double that), I question the long term comfort of it. Quality carriers aren't pricey just because of the brand name - the materials and construction that make the comfortable aren't cheap!
But like I said, I've not seen one in person...so I could be wrong ;-)

I went and looked at Zulily - it does look like it gives good positioning but no clue on comfort or quality of construction. Do they sell them in stores anywhere you could check them out? Glad to see they are at least making a good shaped carrier now!
If want buckles two other options to consider that I think are more little baby friendly than the Ergo - the Action Baby Carrier (these are about $80 or so new but can be found on sale places for less) and the Angelpack (which is on sale right now here: https://www.angelpack.com/category_2/Our-current-products.php).
