Mom's Deluxe 3 in 1 Plus Combo Carrier - Black

This is not my go to carrier. First of all it is a crotch dangler, which is not a great position for your baby to be. It also places baby on your hip, not your chest or back, so baby is just kinda out there in the world without a lot to grab onto. Plus sitting on a persons hips provides a much bumpier ride than laying on their chest or back. This is not the type of carrier you could have a baby fall asleep in (while on the move). I have larger breasts and there is no way I'd be able to carry my baby in this carrier facing toward me. His face ends up in my breasts, and they knock baby's head around a bit. I feel like you have to keep at least one arm free to help support baby, and keep them in place. On top of all of this, this is not the easiest carrier to get baby into and out of.All of that being said, I am really happy that I own this carrier. I recently used this carrier for air travel with my five month old (and no one else). I feel like this carrier made it possible for me to get through the airport and on the airplane with minimal hassle. Yes I could have used another carrier for this, but you are not allowed to wear those while in the plane. I'm not sure why but the baby is not allowed to be strapped to you during the flight. Using this carrier I simply undid the waist belt and removed the shoulder strap when I sat down. When the flight was over I buckled the baby back onto me and got right off the plane. This aspect was much easier than another carrier would have been since space is so limited when everyone is trying to de-board. I was able to wear baby through security (with an additional hand swab) making getting through relatively quick. The waterproof surface came in very handy, as my baby spit up all over the carrier as soon as we got out of the car (of course). Also, if you are a little crafty (and have a changing table), you don't have to pull baby all the way out of the carrier for a diaper change.I also like that this carrier does triple duty. It works very well as a shopping cart restraint. It will do in a pinch for converting a regular chair to a "baby chair". And, you can use it to carry baby while going in the water. All of this while folding up to a smaller size than any of the other baby carriers I have tried, except some wraps. So while this carrier is not my favorite it is the carrier I choose for getting through airports and playing by the water. I also keep this in the car during outings when it is possible I may not get a high chair.

I really like this carrier because it helps ease the tension in my upper back from carrying around my infant son. It also makes it possible for me to handle my toddler daughter and infant son in public without feeling like I'm going to lose my mind! It takes a little practice to get used to putting it on and taking it off, but it is well worth the effort once the baby is situated. I found that my son really couldn't use it comfortably until he was 4 months old, which is the recommended starting age, anyway. My son really enjoys riding in it, too (a lot more than the front carrier that I used for the first 4 months).

I ended up selling it after a month. did not particularly like wearing it and it was uncomfortable for me. Baby liked it for about 30 minutes tops and then was done. This is okay for a trip to the grocery store, but I would not go to the zoo or something like and expect to walk around for a significant amount of time. The complimentary leg cover things are ridiculous and I did not like them. They fit the bottom of the leg great, but were way too tight toward the top.

The `free` leg warmers never came with the package.The buckles were supposed to be colored but came in black only.The instructions manual is not very clear.

This sure comes in handy with a grandbaby who likes to be held all the time!!She can see out and I can get things done with two hands. I would recommend to others.Kind of pricy however and the straps were somewhat difficuty to find where they belong the first time you put it on but after that it's OK

I purchased the Combo 3 in 1 carrier a few months ago. I do not know how I got along without it. It is lightweight and very comfortable, especially on my shoulders and back. I also love the additional features other carriers do not have like how it convertts into a travel chair(great for us at Nana's house)and shopping cart restraint(love those broken straps in the cart.) Really pleased with this product, highly recommend.
