I had a babyhawk and loved it my friend has a Joey and she loves it but it is hard to recommend from someone else.
Each Mei Tai is slightly different and there are some I find more comfortable than others.
The babyhawk straps are very padded and confy.

Oh how old is the baby that it is for.

I love my ergo but I have to say I cannot see past a mei tai. Because it ties and is not buckles it is so easily adjustable every time you put it on.
My personal preferrance of the 2 is the BH TBH the straps are a bit more padded and from a purely looks point of view it is lovely to have so much choice of fabric.
The thing is as well that if you got the BH first and didn;t like it, it is a better known name to babywearers than joey slings so if you didn't get on with it, it does have a better re-sale value.

Go for the BH it sounds lush any links to a pic?

Is it the pink chocolate spheres?
That is gorgeous want another BH I sold mine to try something else and have always regretted it. wonder if dp would notice if I just bought one do you know probably not you know...hmm off to find the credit card whistles innocently

Seriously though i would prbably go for that if I wasn't sure easier to sell on if you don't get on with it.
