Having spent nearly the last five decades innovating ideas for infants and toddlers, BabyBjörn is consistently tweaking their products to meet parents' high standards of quality, functionality, and safety. So it's no surprise that this BabyBjörn Baby Carrier Original is an international favorite.  | | Padded shoulder straps make it perfect for dads on the go. | Knowing the strain that can come with frequently carrying a 26-, 15-, or even 8-pound baby, BabyBjörn developed this carrier with wide, padded shoulder straps that help to evenly distribute baby's weight. (You should ensure that the straps are adjusted correctly each time you put the carrier on, as baby's size changes and other users may have moved them.) Taller or bigger parents may want to consider buying the larger shoulder straps (sold separately) or the BabyBjörn Baby Carrier Active that provides adjustable lumbar support.  | | When infants face outward, the built-in head support for newborns folds down in front. | A size adjustment buckle allows BabyBjörn's carrier to grow with baby—from as early as 8 pounds and at least 21 inches (about one week old) to a maximum weight of 25 pounds. Newborns first face inward using the adjustable head support to keep them stable, while older babies face outward with the head support folded down in front of them. The unique design allows the front piece to be easily removed so as not to wake a sound sleeping baby when taking off the carrier. The material is machine-washable cotton and the carrier comes in a variety of colors. Another great feature of BabyBjörn carriers is their straightforward assembly and suggested adjustments based on baby's size and weight. This makes it easy for one person to manage baby and carrier when no one else is available to help.

Comfortable Carrying and Easy Adjustment
Carrying baby in your arms can be a wonderful bonding experience, but it can also strain the muscles in your back, shoulders and neck. That's why the Original BabyBjorn is designed to evenly distribute baby's weight, resulting in less stress and pressure on your body. When adjusted correctly, the padded shoulder straps allow you to comfortably carry a baby weighing at least eight pounds and 21 inches (about one week old) to a maximum weight of 25 pounds. It's also easy to slip on and buckle the Original BabyBjorn, even without assistance, and all the necessary adjustments can conveniently be made from the front. Supports Growing Babies
The Original BabyBjorn offers firm support that holds your baby's legs and arms in a physiologically correct position to protect his or her back and head. When your baby is a little older and has a stronger neck, the neck-rest can be folded down and you can adjust the seat height so that the child can face forward and look around--something curious babies love while you're cooking dinner, cleaning the house, or walking through the neighborhood. The unique design also allows the front piece to be easily removed so as not to wake a sound sleeping baby when you're taking off the carrier.
Easy-Care, Eco-Friendly Construction
The recipient of several awards, including the 1999 Silver Award and Design of the Decade ISDA, which honors the 36 top products of the decade, this BabyBjorn is both reliable and easy to care for. It can be machine washed separately in warm water, with a gentle, bleach-free detergent, and hung to dry. The Original BabyBjorn is also approved in accordance with the Oeko-Tex Standard 100, class 1, eco-certification, so you can trust that it's safe for baby. About BabyBjorn

 On a wish list September 7, 2008
Melissa L. Hamilton (Columbus, Ohio)
My daughter, who is pregnant for number three, put this on her wish list at Amazon. I live in the States and she lives in Germany. I was able to buy it and ship it directly to Germany. When she received it she was MORE than happy. It's such a great carrier. Everyone was happy! Thanks Amazon for providing this service.
 great until about 14ish pounds! September 3, 2008
M. Moore
This carrier is truly a life saver! It is easy to use, comfortable, quite handy. Until your child hits about 14 pounds!! I have tried adjusting the straps a number of ways, it just doesn't fit comfortably anymore. For me, it causes mild shoulder pain and difficulty breathing. It makes me feel like I'm pregnant again!! However, I must say that until about a month ago, this product was so handy, and an absolute necessity. My baby just outgrew it quicker than I expected she would.
Must have !! September 2, 2008
M. Deshpande (Wheeling, IL)
I had always looked at people using those and thought it's a nice product.
Now I say it's a must have. it's comfortable and stands to the quality it mentions in the specifications.
and in time delivery ( that too with amazon free shipping ) made it a pleasant experience.
Transport da' baby September 2, 2008
J. Stapp
I bought this for my brother as a wedding present. A few months later he found out that he and his wife might use it sooner than they thought...
Fast forward a year. I have 5 or 6 pictures of my nephew Oliver in this rig. Most of the time he's asleep. Based on this I would say that the product works very well.
 Easy enough for a guy to figure out! (Father review) August 9, 2008
C. George (Seattle, WA USA)
This review is for the father's out there. I will be honest before my daughter was born, I didn't see myself ever strapping one of these things on (because of many factors: Looks, easy of use, etc). When I first used this thing, my wife had to show me because it seemed complicated but as you use it, I slowly got into it and it really is a great thing to free up your hands with a young one! When my daughter was a very young, I even mowed the lawn (with a pushmower, non-gas) and my daughter slept the whole time.
The carrier is especially nice when the child turns and faces away from your body. It shifts the weight and the burden of weight better, in my opinion.
One issue is the strap adjustment sometimes is hard to get corrected no matter your size and to keep it from rubbing.
You will get urp all over this thing so one thing to consider is easy of washing. Other carriers we tried were not as easily washed as this one. With this one, throw in the wash and it is good to go.
