I have a moby and a mei tai. I like the mei tai a lot but more for once baby can hold their head up. So I bought a ring sling too. Not the biggest moby fan but I might use it, we will see.
I got the Agility carrier for a shower gift and it looks easy to use. Today we went and looked at other carriers and got a Maya Wrap ring sling so DH can baby wear too. We'll probably get another carrier too when baby gets older...Beco Gemni or Tula.
I have the Moby and the Ergo - I love them both for different reasons.
The Moby is great for infants. It's very comfortable and inexpensive. It does require some time and practice to tie all that fabric up right, but it's easy once you get the hang of it.
The Ergo is great for when they're older(I don't have an infant insert). It's very comfortable and a bit easier to use than a wrap. They do cost more than a lot of other carriers.
Registered for a k'tan and a boba wrap. Will use whatever is gifted (if anything is at all). Our shower is this coming weekend. I plan on wearing the baby all the time but the k'tan seems nice & quick for when they're itty bitty.
I've got a linen blend Didymos woven wrap coming my way this week (woohoo!), and I have an Infantino Sash Mei Tai that I love so much more than the Ergo.
I've also got a maya wrap, but never used it with infant stage.
I've got an ergo too with insert, which I hated! In fact, I've never really used my ergo. I don't care for it, and neither does my husband. He prefers my ktan.
I have a k'tan that I'm planning to use for the infant stage. We didn't use it much with DD, but that was only because it was July in Texas and it was just too hot. It was super easy to use, though, and DD liked it. Once she had some head control, we used a ring sling (the Maya Wrap ring sling was my favorite), so I'll probably do that this time, too, but I also wouldn't mind trying the Ergo with the infant insert. DD hated the Ergo with the insert and didn't like the Ergo until she was around 7 months old. I'd like to buy the infantino mei tai or the beco Gemini, but I probably won't since we already have the k'tan, the ergo, a moby, and two ring slings.
I have a ring sling for the newborn stage then a Tula for once baby is a big bigger. I might get a woven wrap too (they're just so pretty!) just to have another option since I plan to wear baby as much as possible.
I have a boba wrap and I loooove it. I also have a ring sling which I'm going to try out. I didn't use it with my son until he was older (4 months). I have a boba 3G as well that I will use when it fits well. My son only liked having his legs out so I had to wait into he was large enough.

I could hold you for a million years
to make you feel my love.
I already have a Moby...it didn't do well for us the first time because DS didn't like being contained (didn't like swaddle either), but I'm willing to try it again... I hate having to wrap it but hoping it'll become easier as I practice
I'm also going to get the Ergo with the newborn insert though... if that works well from the get-go, will probably just stick with that instead of wrapping/tying the Moby..seems easier. Aint nobody got time.
Re: Carriers & Wraps
I also love the Ergo, but have never used the infant insert.
