ErgobabyAlta Hip Seat Baby Carrier with Baby Hip seat for Babies and Toddlers from 4 Months (5.5 kg - 20.4 kg), with SoftFlex Mesh, Natural Beige

Tried quite a few carriers, but this one finally gave me proper support without needing constant adjustment. Weight feels better distributed, and it hasn’t given me backache even after longer walks. Getting it on and off takes seconds, which has been a blessing when things get chaotic. I’ve mostly used it for quick outings or going through the park. The baby sits securely and doesn’t squirm as much compared to other ones I’ve tried. Pockets come in handy for throwing in keys or small bits instead of dragging a whole bag. It’s handled a fair bit of use now and still feels just as sturdy. Doesn’t dig into my shoulders either, which made a big difference.

Carrying a wriggly toddler for longer periods used to leave me with aching arms and a sore back. This has made outings far easier, especially during those moments when walking just isn’t on the cards for the little one. It feels stable and doesn’t dig into my side, even when worn for a decent stretch of time. My son seems content in it, and I appreciate how quick it is to get him in and out. It's comfortable even with a heavier child and doesn’t feel bulky or restrictive. Handy bits for essentials also save me dragging around a separate bag. Great for walking through markets or getting things done when a pram’s just not practical. It’s clearly built with parents in mind. Simple, supportive, and genuinely makes a difference to daily life.

This has offered a different way of carrying my little one around. The main attraction is the built-in seat. For quick up-and-downs around the house, just using the hip seat on its own is fantastic. It takes all the strain off my arm and back, allowing my toddler to sit comfortably and securely on my hip without me having to contort my body. When going for longer walks, attaching the full carrier distributes the weight evenly across my shoulders and hips. My little one seems very comfortable and content in it, with a good view of the world. Getting him in and out is not too complicated once you get the hang of the buckles. The fabric feels durable and it’s simple to wipe clean any little spills. It feels secure and supportive for both of us. It has been particularly useful for those times when he wants to be carried but is too heavy for me to hold for more than a few minutes without support.

Handles short outings or longer walks without strain. What I noticed first was how easy it was to set up quickly, even with a wriggling toddler. Weight spreads out evenly and never drags on one side. Feels secure but not stiff, and no awkward shifting when bending or moving around. Used it in shops, parks, and getting up and down stairs without issue. Took a couple of tries to find the best position but once adjusted, everything stays in place. Doesn’t dig into the waist or shoulders. Useful for short breaks too, just to give the arms a rest. The extra pockets help keep hands free, which matters when already juggling things.

This hip baby/small child carrier is such a brilliant idea, which has been very well executed. This hip carrier, is simple to adjust and fit. It is very well made, well stitched and well finished. The seat itself is solid but padded and provides an excellent seat.It can be used from 7.7kg (so using average weights from about 6-7 months old) through to 20.4Kg (around 5-6 years old on average), which gives very good coverage for the years you most need it for covering.The belt is easily adjustable and should accommodate most hips easily. I really like the fact that the belt itself can be folded back on itself and secured via an elastic attachment to save the excess belt from dangling to your side. The belt is comfortable to wear and in use this is so much moer comfortable bearing the weight on the hips rather than dragging on the arms and shoulders (which especially for older people we find extremely tiring). This is great even at the lower weights but I think this will prove increasingly useful as the kids grow.I also really like the neutral colouring which makes this useful for both men and women. The carrier also has two pockets (one zippable) for storage of small items. A superb idea, that has been very well thought out and really makes carrying small children for long periods of time less exhausting. Although quite expensive I think it justifies the cost.

I got this car seat-carrier for my 8-month-old son when we were planning our first long trip to visit his grandmother. We needed a comfortable and safe option that could be used both in the car and for carrying the baby around in shopping centers and on walks.The seat doesn’t require complicated installation—just fasten it using the car’s standard seatbelts. The fabric is soft to the touch, with plush inserts around the head and sides. The cover is removable and washable, which is very convenient with small children. All fasteners are secure, and the carrier locks into multiple positions.It works as a car seat, baby carrier, and lounger all in one. During the trip, it kept our baby safe, and during breaks we easily turned it into a carrier with a handle. At home, we used it as a temporary resting spot.The seat’s special shape reduces pressure on the baby’s spine. After a 3-hour ride, our son was calm, whereas in our previous seat he would start crying after an hour.The reclining angle can also be adjusted, which is especially useful when the baby falls asleep. We could lower the backrest without disturbing him, and he would continue sleeping peacefully.This car seat completely lived up to its price—it’s truly multifunctional and convenient for parents. It’s now our must-have for all trips. Our baby is comfortable, and we feel secure about his safety.

This baby hip seat is very well designed and made. It's firm yet comfortable for both the bearer and the baby. The material is soft and comfy. The stitching is consistent throughout and the finish overall speaks of quality. At the time of writing, 74.90 Flt a tat deer but for a quality baby product it's okay. It does offer additional support when carrying a baby although it might not be entirely necessary - and it does reduce strain around the shoulders and neck.
