BabyBjorn Baby Carrier Synergy

Tested by Shaunna Johnson and six-month-old Taylor, Nanaimo, B.C.

PRICE: $200

RIGHT FOR: Newborn (minimum 8 lbs) to about 26 lbs

POSITIONS: Front inward/outward facing

NURSING: "Taylor sits too high on my chest to nurse comfortably"

FEATURES: Mesh fabric promotes airflow, T-shaped back panel provides lumbar support, all adjustments can be made from the front of the carrier, sliding size buckle adjusts the length four times as your baby grows.

PROS: “The adjustment straps are very strong and support different body shapes and sizes. It’s easy to get on and off, very comfortable on my back and I like the extra straps for tiny babies. Taylor complains when I take her out! A coat would be squished under the carrier.”

CONS: "None really, I wish I'd had it from the beginning."
