I give this sling top scores, except when the weather is hot. It's particularly comfortable when they are little. When they get heavier and facing outwards you have to be careful to place the fabric correctly between their legs. Also in hot weather the fabric is so insulating that I think it's best not to use it. But, despite appearances, it's very easy to put on and comfortable for you and the baby (it spreads the weight so nicely across your back). Also, as a word of warning, don't buy second hand as after a while the lycra loosens and it may not be supportive enough.

Why did I not discover stretchy wraps until I had my third baby?! This sling transformed my life in the first 4 months of DD3s life; I used it daily.

It took me about 5 minutes to learn how to tie it, then about 3-4 days of using it to refine my technique to the perfect tie for me. Thereafter, I would get dressed then tie the sling and in she would go. I found it particularly good in wet weather as I could tie it at home, then just pop her in when we arrived in the car park wherever without the sling trailing in the wet. Judging by the maount she slept in it, DD3 found it as comfy as I did.

Having tried the baby bjorn and my baby being too fat for it after about a month I bought the Kari me. All I can say I wish I'd bought it sooner. It was so much better on my back. As I say my son is heavy and I really felt it with the baby bjorn but not with this sling it's wonderful. It's a bit daunting when you first see it and look at the instructions but I literally put it on once with the instructions and then could do it straight away - believe me I am not technically minded so it must be easy! It's comfortable for you and for baby only slight difficulty is trying to get it over babies legs without bending them too much sometimes but small price to pay

I love this sling. It's the best thing since unsliced bread.

It's comfortable to wear because it spreads the weight across the whole of your back.

It's extremely flexible - I've worn it 5'5", my husband has worn it 5'10" and my father has worn it 6'5" and every single one of us has found it comfortable and easy to use.

It is a bit daunting when you first take it out of the bag but a couple of practice runs and it's on and baby in within a matter of seconds.

My daughter loves it she can watch the world go by while I get on with housework, shopping etc.

We've used cuddly, tummy to tummy and facing the world so far. It's fabulous for calming when baby is fractious.

I like this sling, it's very soft and comfortable. I find it makes your clothes ride up at the back but I think this is more a case of just getting used to how to wear it. My son loves it and falls asleep every time in it. It's very good for holding him in the upright position after his feed and for when he has hiccups. But I find it a bit of a pain to tie and untie.
