I recently received this Bandy Baby carrier and couldn't wait to try it out. The baby it is meant for is not quite here yet(not my baby!) so I borrowed the baby of a close friend. There are nice illustrated instructions within the packing when you unroll your carrier. I was already familiar with how to wear this type of carrier, but for a newbie, the illustrated instructions will be very helpful. It also comes with a nice carry bag! Fold your carrier in half and roll up to get it back in!
I was happy to discover that the fabric is single stretch. It only stretches one way which provides a more secure fit. It does not require as much adjusting as you wear baby for longer periods of time.
I am a size 12-14 and there was lots of tail left and I could even wrap around and tie in front. It would fit a person who is maybe up to size 18/20 tied in the back.
It is very easy to use once you are familar with the technique. When you are getting the carrier on while out and about it is easiest to keep the long tails from hitting the ground if you do it outside your car and leave the tail on your car seat while doing the other. Some times when I am using this type of carrier I will put it on loosely before leaving the house then tighten it when I put baby in while out and about. I love babywearing since there are sooo many benefits like promoting social interation, preventing flattened head, it can help relieve gas if baby is positioned in the froggy position. It is way easier than carrying a car seat around and much safer than sticking a car seat in a cart at the store(DO NOT EVER DO THIS BY THE WAY!).
This carrier is light weight and will be comfortable in the summer. It is lighter weight than other carriers of this same style that I have tried. It is also very soft!
I received this Bandy Baby at a discount for my honest opinion and review. The opinions in this review are my own!
