We received the Kangaroo as a gift when our daughter was born and used it almost immediately. We loved having her in it until she weighed more than 10 pounds. from Childcarriers.com I purchased the Kelty Kangaroo carrier when Ewan was born. He was only 6lbs 4 oz, so we waited til he was a few weeks old and 2 pounds heavier. from Childcarriers.com Worthless back support, rough velcro rubs baby's legs, too many straps! The Bottom Line: Save your money and buy a Baby Bjorn! This Kelty may look more robust, but it can't hold a candle to the Bjorn in terms of ergonomics. from Shopping.com Worthless back support, rough velcro rubs baby's legs, too many straps! The Bottom Line: Save your money and buy a Baby Bjorn! This Kelty may look more robust, but it can't hold a candle to the Bjorn in terms of ergonomics. from Shopping.com Cons: These are quite complicated to put on - the adult portion and baby portion are connected by 4 straps and 2 pieces of velcro - which have to be undone every time baby comes on or off. The velcro is loud and sure to wake a sleeping baby. The waist strap sits at the lower back and does not distribute weight on the hips as other Kelty carriers do, so all the weight is on the shoulders. The front part folds down very clumsily and one of the little red loops holding the front flap down in the forward facing position broke after the second use. from Amazon.com With my first child, I tried 3 different front carriers before a friend recommended the Kelty Kangaroo to me. The Baby Bjorn, a Graco front carrier and an Evenflo...and none of them were comfortable and I found them very confusing! from Amazon.com Ok, with my first baby, I tried a Baby Bjorn carrier and an Evenflo front carrier and didn't like either one of them. Then a friend suggested that I try her Kelty Kangaroo, and I loved it. I bought my own right away and used it constantly for everything from hiking with the baby to just carrying her around the house, while I cleaned. from Amazon.com we were just in new orleans with 7-week old ewan (now probably about 11 pounds) and it was easy to manoeuver him in the airports and on the flight (he stayed hooked on to me for takeoffs and landings) from Childcarriers.com this is the best baby purchase we have made. from Childcarriers.com find out what its like to be a mama marsupial with baby in pocket in this aptly named front carrier! from Childcarriers.com
