This is the best sling i have used. I have fibromyalgia and am always in a lot of pain but this sling is so comfortable that you don't feel as if you are wearing it (just the weight of the child ; )) The weight is evenly distributed and the straps are very comfy.

My husband likes to wear this one too. Our son is 2 now and he still fits in it very happily and goes straight to sleep or just enjoys the closeness of being in it. I'd highly recommend it.

I've had my Kozy (well, two) since my daughter was around 6 months old and found it a very easy carrier to put on. You tie it around your waist like an apron, bring the panel of fabric up through your babies legs and just tie the straps around your back, then under your babies bottom!

My daughter always falls asleep within around 10 minutes of putting her in it. The straps are padded and it's easy to tighten the straps if you need to.

Highly recommended and there's a lot of pretty fabrics too!

Have been using my Kozy MeiTai since DD 3 months and I love it. Find it a lot kinder on my back than the ring sling and Tomy carrier I tried.

The straps are wide and comfortable and the weight is so evenly distributed its easy to carry my now 9 month old DD even in front carry.

Fabric is sturdy and even though secures with knots the canvas ties very securely, fits in my change bag and I pop DD in and out with only a tiny adjustment to loosen or tighten. Still looks new after 5 months daily use and a couple of washes.

Was reasonably priced as bought direct from US and conversion rates were good at the time, but would happily pay more as feel I just clicked with this sling.

I couldn't breastfeed in it but have read of people doing so.

Fabulous sling with a great range of fabrics from very girly to very suitable for blokes and everything in between! and very versatile. I got mine when baby was 8 weeks old and she was asleep on my front in it straight away. When she woke up my 3 yr old got in it on my back and its been our main sling for ages now. Different ways of tying it make it excellent for new babies and huge pre-schoolers.

The padded straps and the stiffness of the fabric make it comfy to wear and provides little ones with a bit of head support too.

My husband wears this as his favourite sling (though our ring sling is used quite a bit as well) and I find it so reassuring that he could get, and keep, baby asleep by himself and he could still do the housework! Our baby basically cried if not cuddled/held, and as our big girl needed life to continue, slings literally saved out sanity.

I had this sling recommended to me by someone and I can't thank her enough.
