Connecta vs Rose & Rebellion?

[grainmum]

Hi, just been along to my local sling meet this morning and tried connecta and rose and rebellion carriers. Looking for something to move on from my Moby Wrap that is a bit more practical out and about and will last for a while, also that my DH might be more willing to wear.

Any thoughts on pros/cons between these two?

Personally I preferred the padding on R&R however I think they are a touch narrower so won't be comfortable for quite as long (I used mine until 18 months but DS was probably too big for the last 4 months of that). R&R are reversible, and also do a lot of dad-friendly designs.

I'm a big connecta fan. I think they are really easy to use (great when you want to try back carries suitable from about 4-6 months) and last really well. I prefer that the straps cross over your back rather than the ruck sack style on the R&R. My partner liked ours and they seem popular with dads.
