I bought the Cross Country baby carrier for my 17 month old daughter who likes the outdoors very much. When I was first deciding which model carrier to get, I considered the Kelty KIDS carriers, but I didn't like their kick stand designs which won't stay... more
Pros
Kickstand that stays open, inexpensive (relatively),
Cons
Adjustability is limited, ventilation is not so good
Bottomline
The Cross Country is a good carrier for most uses. It's construction is sturdy but isn't like the ones designed for overnight backpacking trips.
The perfect carrier for hikes less than 3 hours.

We took the Evenflo Snugli framed carrier with us on a 6-week, 6,000-mile trip on my maternity leave with Child #2. Child #1 was 20 months old by then, and we were concerned she would be too big for a backpack. Fortunately, we received this backpack... more
Pros
Sturdy, comfortable and easy to use. Passenger loved it!
Cons
A few more outside pockets would have been nice.

We bought this product in the winter of 2002 when our son was a few months old. He loved it! We enjoy carrying our children when out, and this was perfect for so many reasons. The biggest being that there is a pouch below the backpack for diapers,a... more
Pros
Attached "pouch" for baby items that makes a diaper bag not needed when out.
Cons
Began to rip after 2 years of use.

We researched the available carriers and found that this one fit the bill. We had started out with the Baby Borjn (sp) carrier, which my son outgrew by 7 months. This carrier has good adjustment for both me (6-ft) and my spouse (5"9"), as well as my son... more
Pros
Carrier has good adjustment for both me (6 ft) and my spouse (5"9"), and child.
Cons
One defect noted, one of the bolts backing up the lower strap attachement.

We bought this because it was lightweight and fairly inexpensive. My 6'2 husband primarily wears it and it "just" fits him. I don't think it's really made for big men. The baby LOVES it. It soothes her stomach and gets us exercise at the same time... more
Pros
inexpensive, convenient, baby loves it, storage pockets
Cons
boring color, large men may not fit
