Artepoppe carrier - worth the cost?

[miniworry]

As the title suggests really, they look insanely comfortable but are they worth the £350 price tag?

Currently PG with our second child and have a 3 year old at the moment. Feeling this one will need to be in a sling a lot more so my hands are free to continue parent/stopping ww3. Most things for this baby are 2nd hand from our first so want to treat myself to something nice this time!

We have an ergo360 from DD1 still but I never found it hugely comfortable.

I don't have an Artepoppe as I didn't know of them until months after I'd had DS but as an alternative to the ergobaby, I have a Tula Explore and it's been brilliant.
I used a sling and the Tula with my first but the sling didn't suit my second (just wasn't comfortable for some reason) so he's mainly been in the Tula. He's almost 11 months and still in it.
It's a forward and inward front carrier plus a back carrier. It lasts until they're about 4 I think.

I've only come across Artipoppe more recently; we have a Beko Gemini which is so comfortable other friends who tried ours went and bought their own - all at about half the price of the Artipoppe as well.

Similar to the Tula, it lasts until they're about 4 (unless your child is a proper chunk like mine) and can do both front inward and forward, and back carrying.

@miniworry worth it absolutely! The easiest carrier to put on and wear! And I tried LOTS

I have one and I think it’s worth it - there is something about carrying your baby and being super tired but in a comfortable but stylish carrier which makes you feel way more put together than you are.

It’s worth the splurge for me just for that. I have a referral code for money off of you decide to take the plunge ☺️

I didn't think it was worth the cost... There are many easy and nice looking carriers out there.

We had a Tula which looks similar in style and I loved it.

A friend of mine has one and says she wishes she hadn’t bothered, she found it rather impratjcal and not as comfortable or hard wearing as the Tula or Baby Bjorn she’d had with her first.

It did look beautiful, though.

And she wasn’t trying to sell me a referral code 😅
