Boba X Baby Carrier - Newborn to Toddler, 2-Position Front and Backpack Child Carrier 7 to 45 lbs, Crossable Straps and Padded Shoulders (Black Beauty)

This is the third baby carrier I've purchased and I've finally found the best one for me.Only wish I'd bought this one first. It's so easy to wear and adjust straps when needed.I didn't even need to look at the instruction manual. There are video tutorials which show you how to wear as front carry or back carry position and it's really simple and quick to do.Highly recommend for any mums new to babywearing!

Bestest carrier ever. Ergonomic, light, many colours to choose from and perfect way to carry your baby near your heart. Dont look for anything else. It's perfect. Second one I'm buying already

Very good quality carrier

My little boy loves this sling and it will grow with him as he gets bigger

I love love love baby carriers and only wish I'd started with my first. I got introduced to them with my 2nd and now 4 years later, I have done tons and tons of research and have several different carriers to suit different situations.This carrier has a really soft panel. It really hugs my baby as similarly to a wrap as you could get. The buckles are super easy to click on on your own and getting baby in or out is really simple and quick. My husband and I have swapped wearing it and it's really easy to do this. He's quite a bit bigger than me too. He really likes having baby in this carrier and the hood panels also helps support baby's head when she's asleep, especially when she was younger. The shoulder straps are cushioned too and the position of the baby in the carrier is just right for that ergonomic fit. I have also managed to breastfeed her in the carrier when needs must but I, personally, found it trickier and it's not an everyone occurrence. It totally depends on your own size, experience and also on baby's age and experience. My baby was 1 month old when I first got it whereas now at nearly 5 months she sits up more and grabs on like a bottle sometimes which helps. A big bonus is being able to machine wash it and then I just hang it over the radiator to dry. So so convenient because babies will inevitably be sick on it!So I've mainly done front carry but have back carried a few times. I'm not as confident putting her on my back and have struggled with the straps which is why more recently I have bought another carrier (a half buckle one) to add to my growing collection. Saying that, she much prefers being on my front for now and when she's older, I know this carrier will be absolutely amazing for her! I used a manduca before for my son when he was 2 and it's a similar style. It unsure, read reviews and watch YouTube videos like I did.The negatives:The straps can rub under the arm if you're not wearing a 3/4 or a long sleeved top. It didn't leave me sore but it annoyed me cos I felt it and it was uncomfortable.The straps and adjustments are really stiff when new. I have loosened the main straps I use to tighten baby when she's on and they're super easy to adjust but to adjust some of the less used ones I have to feed it through or really pull (this needs to be done with carrier off and obviously no baby).

Very comfortable to wear. Baby feels safe as well ! Highly recommended

I have used boba wrap but my 4 months old is too heavy and I ordered this carrier.It does have great support and is comfortable however the fabric looks already worn (black beauty)

I’ve used a bunch of carriers and this is by far the worst. When wearing on the front the shoulder straps are incredibly difficult to close with the shoulder blade clip, any sort of extended wearing (15 min plus) makes your shoulder blades feel like they’re being ripped apart. Back wearing is incredibly difficult, especially on the go and my 9 month old son easily got his arms fully out and started leaning back. Material is stiff and not breathable. An expensive mistake. Adjusting the carrier is difficult and it wears under the arms when walking. The shoulder straps are padded but are so wide (I’m 5’8” and wide shouldered) that they don’t really sit on your shoulders, yet still feel in your line of vision. I watched the online adjustment videos and read the “how to” included… carrier is finicky, painful and just plain awful! I really don’t understand how it has good reviews???This is really the worst I’ve ever purchased, and caused a great deal of disappointment!! I feel like I’ve really tried to get a grasp of how to make this carrier work and yet I still can’t wear it for more than a few minutes before my shoulders feel like they’re getting ripped off, I normally baby wear for several hours a day while walking around, so this obviously doesn’t work for me or baby.

I've tried several carriers including Baby Bjorn, sling carriers, soft wraps, and Mai Dai (spelling?) carriers, but this one is by far the best of them all and most reasonably priced. Have carried my 3 month old all the way up to 3 year old in it and love it, it's the one item I've used most with both my kids. Kid must face you either on front or back. Back carry is great for toddlers (especially if you are travelling abroad or in a crowd and don't have a stroller handy). Front carry for infant/babies is great. Once they have neck control the baby can be carried on back too but if they fall asleep in carrier they should be carried on the front to protect their neck. Legs do proper M shape so they don't get hip dysplasia. No forward carry option as that is terrible for baby spines. Easy access for handsfree breastfeeding while babywearing. Carrier puts baby's weight directly on your hips so I've not had back pain with this carrier unless I'm wearing for extended periods (I'm talking hours and hours in a day of nap walks or hikes) which is unavoidable with any carrier. It's soft and packs up very small, easy to wash. Straps clip together in the back so you're not fighting with criss crossed straps.

I purchased Boba Bliss for my baby when he was smaller and loved it.I decided to purchase their infant to toddler carrier because of the back support as the other one was causing back pain since my baby is on the bigger side for his age.I was worried because in the photo the carrier looks like a dark grey but it is actually the pretty light grey color I liked as the Bliss carrier.It was easy to wear and baby fit just right in it.It provides back support and I like that I can cross the straps for extra back support.I love that it is hip healthy and it will grow with my baby.Price was a little on the pricey side but quality seems worth it.There was a weird smell that also came on my previous carrier but with washing it it eventually went away.Edit: my baby is not 20lbs and almost 9 months and we use this daily sometimes multiple times a day, I started using him on my back when I am cleaning around the house and it is comfortable and he loves being carried, he falls asleep on this carrier almost everytime. I will be sad when he outgrows it, thank you Boba.

Mio figlio è stato abituato al babywearing dai primi giorni di vita e continua ad apprezzare molto i marsupi boba. Il primo che avevamo era a metà tra fascia morbida e marsupio, ora che pesa 7/8 kg siamo passati al boba X ed è meraviglioso. Semplice da mettere, comodissimo per i bimbi e pieno di piccoli accessori comodissimi come il parasole e la clip per la borsetta. Io ho scelto la variante Leopard scura e lo amo, comodo e troppo cool. Usato al mare e in montagna oltre alla città, veramente pratico

Je cherchais un porte bébé pratique qui ne demandait pas trop d’attaches et fixation pour se mettre en route rapidement… celui ci est parfait!Le petit plus sa capuche pour protéger la tête de bébé en cas de soleil, de vent ou pour favoriser l’endormissementLe petit moins je pensais qu’il serait plus compacte pour ranger et prendre partout mais pas dérangeant quand même

Perfect item
