This carrier is great and works just as well (literally same concept) as the tushbaby and is a fraction of the price. My sister-in-law showed us her Tushbaby and kept telling us how we needed to get one for our 6.5 month old. After looking at the unnecessarily expensive Tushbaby I knew I needed to find a less expensive option as there are so many other things worth spending your money on because lets be honest, the carrier is nice to have but its not really a necessity.
Here is the review I wish I found when considering buying this carrier:
1. Sturdiness: The carrier has an adjustable velcro waist band and a clipping mechanism making is very secure. It can fit around anyones waist no matter the size. When the baby is sitting on the seat it doesn't feel like it is going to fall down or like it is geting loose at all.
2. Material: The material is as expected. Not cheaply made and put together very nicely. I like the addition of the little zipper pockets to be able to put a pacifier or teething toy in for a quick grab.
3. Support: This carrier offers great back support and relief for your tired arms and back after carrying around a baby all day. 16 pounds doenst seem like a lot until your baby wants to be held for an hour +. This is perfect to get some relief and it really does take a lot of pressure off of your back.
4. Comfort level for baby: My son doesn't seem bothered by this carrier at all. The first time we used it he looked comfortable and didn't complain. It still keeps your baby close to you so that they have the connection they want but also gives you some relief from carrying them.
All in all this carrier is great if you feel like you want and/or need one. It does exactly the same as the other more expensive brands without being over priced.
