I have had this carrier for over a year now and have zero complaints! We have easily hiked over a hundred miles with it. It doesn’t have as much cushion as an Osprey, as to be expected with the price difference. However it is comfortable to wear and for my little to ride in. The stage area is big enough for diapers, wipes, a change of close, small water bottle, and the all important snacks! Over time and lots of use the carrier has held up and only has minor wear. I highly recommend it!

Love this backpack!! Have had it for three years now and it’s holding up great! I love all the adjustable features and how lightweight it is. The shade cover is awesome and the rain guard is fancy! I’m always amazed at how much I can stuff into the storage pocket too! The kids love it and will fall asleep in it. We use it for everything, hiking, shopping, vacation, you name it!

Our 19 month old was skeptical at first, but got used to the harness quickly. It was awesome to have him walk on trails with us, as we normally are limited to paved paths with a stroller. The back pack was very adjustable and had various pockets/storage that I didn’t realize it had. My son is about 28 pounds, so it definitely made the walk harder. You just have to mess around with the shoulder straps to get it comfortable for you. Start small with a short walk to see how long you can go before jumping into a 5 mile hike. For the price, you can’t beat this model compared to the other brands out there that are $300 plus. If you plan on using this once in awhile for the kiddos, I’d recommend it. I believe it’ll hold up well over time if taken care of.

This thing was a life saver. We went on a family vacation to Chicago. We have 4 small kids and really wanted to utilize public transit and also keep up with our older kids while we explored, without lugging a stroller. We aren't new to baby carriers, but this was our first framed carrier. We love it. I think anyone who has a baby/toddler and likes to get out and DO things should own one. My only complaint is that the chest strap snapped on day 2 of our trip/3rd use. I used a strap from my diaper bag and a carabiner clip to keep the straps together on the chest and that worked fine for the rest of the trip. I haven't replaced it permanently yet but I'm sure I'll find something. Our 2 year old LOVES this thing. He asks for it constantly and if he sees it, he demands to get in. He didn't complain about being in it at all and was very comfortable. He likes to get up and go so I was surprised but he had a great view and a comfy seat. He used the sun shade all the time and as long as it was on properly, it didn't interfere with his view (he called it his hat lol). He took at least 1 nap in it every day and was in the pack for 6-8 hours a day (minus breaks). We walked about 15-20 miles per day and neither of us felt weighted down, even though we had his change of clothes, jacket, diapers and wipes, snacks, extra cup, our water bottles, and probably some stuff I'm forgetting inside this pack. We even got caught in pouring rain once and the rain shield kept our toddler and most of the carrier dry. His rain jacket was barely wet and all the stuff inside the zippered area was dry (meanwhile, I was soaked, but that was okay). I hate it took us this long to get one of these. It was life-changing, and even with the broken strap, I'd buy it again.

My husband (6'2" , 250lbs) and I (5'4" , 155lbs) both needed good, durable backpack carriers to carry our twins around during hikes and long outings. After hours of searching and researching, we decided we would get one of these and see if it was worth getting a second... We bought our second the day the first got here after we both tried it on and realized how perfect they are. Very adjustable for size, very comfortable and well padded. Lots of pockets and the canopies work great. The bars are well placed and didn't dig into my husband or mine sides. We were easily able to do our own babies seat and swing the pack onto our own backs and let the bar in and out on our own by reaching around the sides. It takes a moment to find the buttons to release the bar to fold, but you get used to it quickly. Our twins are 12mo size now and will absolutely still fit them 2 years from now still. Even the foot stirrups are height adjustable. Be prepared that this is a hiking backpack carrier, not a sling, so it's gonna be a little big. But overall (even for me at 5'4") I feel the size is perfect and not overwhelmingly big like some carriers out there.

Let me start off by saying this was the best amazon purchase in a while(and i purchase from amazon a lot-haha). We were looking for a secondary hiking back pack since we have two kids now. I was little skeptical since this was much more affordable than the packs from REI etc. This pack was more comfortable, versatile, efficient than our other expensive name brand pack. It comes with the extra long changing pad, over head cover and plastic cover (which was helpful when we hiked in the rain or near the waterfalls. We have a 32lb 3 year old and a 21lb 7 month old. The pack was super easy to adjust for both kids and our 7 month old how no problem sitting up and fell asleep numerous times. Probably the best part about this pack for our family is that it VERY comfortably fit my husband and I. I am barley skimming 5ft and my husband is 6ft2in! Like wow! Being 5ft I have a hard time finding regular hiking backpacks, none the less a baby carrier! I carried my 3 year old with ease!! The pack has plenty of pockets, cooler pocket, zipper and side pockets. Also the packs lays flat- unlike our expensive one and the bottom stabilizing bar adjusts in for when you are using or setting the pack down. 5 starts!

I am surprised at just how comfortable this pack is. For reference, I am 5’3”, 180 pounds. My son is 21 months old and about 28 pounds. The pack is adjustable depending on your height. I saw another review that a shorter woman said it was uncomfortable for her stature, and I disagree. I could imagine that wearing any weight on your back for a couple miles would become uncomfortable. Our first hike was a mile and a half just to see how he would do, I felt no rubbing into my back or shoulders, and he didn’t complain a single time except for when the wind picked up for about 2 mins. I very seriously recommend this pack to anyone. Very easy to use. I do agree it’s a little awkward to buckle your child in once they’re in the pack, but it’s absolutely not the worst experience. It’s a wonderful pack.

I bought this to replace the dumb little infant carrier we had. I like to hike a lot, so this was purchased to bring my little dude along. We got this one because it has the higher max weight rating, and I wanted one that would last as long as possible. Everything works the way it's supposed to and I really have no complaints other than the hip belt pockets could be placed closer to the buckles, or could be able to move so they're not so far off to the side. I also should probably lose some weight, which would solve that problem. It's hard to stick to a healthy diet sometimes. In the moment when you crave something you probably shouldn't eat, it's so easy to justify it to yourself by saying "This is the last one." or "I'll start dieting seriously tomorrow.", etc. The way I have been successful with eating healthier is to tell myself Nothing Tastes Better Than Being In Shape Feels, Your Brain Is Stronger Than Your Stomach, and What You Eat Today Is How You'll Look In A Month. I hope these mantras can help you make healthier choices and enable you to live a happier and more fulfilling life.
