A REALLY GOOD ALROUND CHILD CARRIER
a versatile, well made, intelligently designed child carrier that can be used in a variety of outdoor situations The pack fit is adjustable. It can be set on the ground for feeding baby as a kind of portable high chair. It has a rain/sun canopy. It also has a reasonable amount of storage space as well
Heavy but all child carriers are especially with children in them! No other weaknesses for me
Used this for both my children. Weight aside, it was really comfortable and indespensible for me when going out and about. Best thing of all was the kids loved it and were able to enjoy teh outdoor experience much better than in a buggy

A GOOD QUALITY & COMFORTABLE CARRIER
Good value for money compared to other brands. child is very stable and secure in the seat and teh leteral suport means thehy don't wobble around at all. Comfortale for the adult to carry. Adjusting it to fit differnt adults only took us a few mins so it was good for one to carry before luch, then cahnge teh height and one can carry after lunch etc. The pull out stand makes it easy to load and also works well if you want to feed your LO in the child carrier (which is great when it's a mudy field and they want to crawl around)
My mate has the macpac possum and her LO des look slightly more comforatble when sleeping in the possum than my child does in our jollycomfort - however my little one can and does sleep in the jolly comfort. The possum works out nearly £60.00 more by the time you have brought the sun and rain canopy and that was too much for that little bit of extra sleepng comfort. I did by the extra head rest for the jolly comfort that made it a easier for her to have a nap. I also invested in the longer rain cover (it comes complete with samll raincover but as it's oftern windy on walsk I thought the full length one more secure.
A very good quality child carrier that will be comfy for you and baby. If you inted to take your child on walks during their nap times then you may find other carriers are slightly more comfortable for sleeping or you may need to but the additional head support for the jolly comfort.

EXCELLENT
Very well constructed and totally adjustable. Very stable in the ground with the sprog in it. Great storage space for nappies, pottles etc. Even comes with a chaging mat.
Some of the adjustments are tricky to make until you get used to it. the rain cover that's included is a little flimsy and could blow off. They do an elasticated one that fits around the bottom of the sack for greater security. If shared between two people of greatly differing heights, adjusting the height between the hip belt and shoulder straps could be fiddly. Best advice is practice.
The best one we could find. Worth spending the extra cash on one that is comfortable to you, otherwise you'll hate it and not use it.
Shop around for the best deal, there's a big difference in prices. We got ours from Gear-zone.co.uk for £90.

WORKS FOR ME BUT MAY NOT FOR YOU
Very comfortable for me to carry, stable and a good fit via the (fiddly) back length adjustment. Both kids have been happy using it untill dad said they were big enough to walk!
What works for me may not for you. The fiddly back adjustment meant it was set up for the day for me or for Sarah, we coudn't comfortably share the load.
When you go to buy one of these try to borrow a kid of about 3 years old (or as big as you are likley to carry). Yor kid will be heavier every time and a dead weight dosn't simulate carrying a kid. Put the big kid into a few modeld and carry them round the shop and go with the one that suits you best.

AS STABLE AS A RUCSACK
Excellent back system giving good support and stability. Good sun shade and shower cap. Good size change mat provided with it which is very useful!
The sun shade and shower cap is a pain to fold up and stow - so it is usually just left on
I've been using this for the past 8 months and have been very pleased. Ewan, my son, is very comfortable in it and the compression straps ensure that he is going no-where without me!
