I think its scary looking. It probably would work ok and be supportive though.

Ha! I have to agree on all points.

[emamum]

i thinks funny looking but looks like a pouch at the same time

Carry On pull-over sling carrier is the only carrier that completely frees both arms while baby remains safe and secure.

i dont think thats true?

[MarcyC]

Thanks...I thought it looked scary, too!

Umm, number one, scary. Number two, definitely false advertising that it's the "only" carrier where you can be hands-free. And number three, if it really is so hands-free, why has the lady got such a death grip on her baby??!!

[tynme]

That doesn't look comfy at all!! Plus, all carriers free up BOTH arms. I can't think of any carrier that has fully restricted movement of both arms. Nice try though. :

[limabean]

Yeah, what's up with the crazy-false advertising? Very strange.

[confustication]

So, ALL the weight is distributed across the tops of your shoulders? I don't follow....

1. To me it looks like a fur coat gone terribly worng. (yes, snark, sorry)
2. Apparently you can use a cradle hold that's way above your breasts- seems silly to me.
3. The baby doesn't look terribly well supported- there's a lot of open fabric there with a much bigger than average newborn. I wonder just how adjustable it really is?
4. No rings or buckles is safer for baby? I don't know- the rings in our ring sling haven't attacked at any point yet.... and they're very sturdy... I think I'd pick them over a drawstring any day.
5. Please give me a mei tai, ssc, or wrap for real 'hands free' carrying.

I think it's hilarious. I want to buy one and keep it in the vintage stash with my 1981 Infantino.

[almadianna]

i think that it would be hard to get a real good fit with that thing.

[musiclady]

a fur coat gone wrong? that's hilarious.

I was going to post the exact same comment. I hate pouches anyway, but I like this one even less!

[MarcyC]

The same company also carries this:

Is it just me, or in the bottom two pictures, does that look completely unsafe? It looks like she's got it draped over both shoulders, no arm places...I don't know....just looks like an accident waiting to happen!

[lotus.blossom]

Looks like something my tacky MIL would wear!

[maymorales]

it does look a bit odd. hm...
