Active Oasis Baby K'tan Baby Carrier Wrap: #1 Easy Pre-Wrapped Baby Sling Gift | Breathable Sport Blend | UVA/UVB Infant Sun Protection | Promotes Safe Hygiene | Newborn up to 35lb (See Size Chart)

Our son is a little hot body and so while we had prepared for his arrival with a Babyhawk and a Boba 4g, we quickly realized that we'd have to save those heavier carriers for the fall/winter. After some searching, we discovered the Beachfront Baby Wrap and thought all our prayers had been answered. The beachfront wrap is amazingly light and kept our little furnace from overheating and we love the idea that we can eventually use it to take him swimming in (I'd suggest it over the k'tan for water adventures and please read and obey the safety warnings re: use with an infant)....however, its still a wrap. 15 feet of fabulously bright green mesh fabric that, while versatile enough everyone from myself to my husband to my parents can use it, still takes quite a bit of fiddling around with and isnt ideal for quick trips or to load a suddenly fussy baby into.Enter the Baby K'tan!! I initially tried the Breeze because I thought it would provide better ventilation and comfort for me and our little man, however the fabric was still just heavy enough that it wasnt optimal for us (and it only came in black or white on Amazon....white anything with a baby is asking for trouble and black would get WAY too hot in any type of sun) so we swapped it out for the Active carrier and love love love it. On top of being super lightweight and compact, the ocean blue is fun and very visible (the safety nerd in me likes bright colors so that when we go on walks we're visible to vehicles) and its insanely easy to use. I was skeptical of this sort of carrier because I felt there was no way it could measure up to a traditional style wrap, but I was wrong!! Our little guy is a snuggle king and generally doesnt sleep during the day unless he's being held so this allows me to actually get things done while still keeping baby happy and content. I also have a terrible back and this is comfortable enough that i'm able to wear it for hours and a time with little to no back pain or fatigue. The fabric has just enough give (not as much as a traditional or breeze carrier) to be extra comfy but still feel very secure. This has made all the difference in our errand running as well; we opted to not use a travel system with a 'baby bucket' carseat so we still need to carry our lil guy when we're in stores and this is perfect to throw on really quick before getting him out of his car seat and I dont have to worry about the ends of a traditional wrap dragging on the ground of a dirty parking lot.The only cons I have with it were that it took a few order and returns to get the size right (i'm 5ft5in and currently 180lbs but I have a smaller upper body) so I thought I'd be a medium but I turned out to need a small. Also, because the carrier is so personal in sizing, my husband is unable to use the baby k'tan and so for the price, it is rather limited when compared with other wraps/carriers.

First off i would like to say that i do not have a lot of experience with different carriers, i own a ergo baby 360 All Positions Carrier (which i love), and now this Baby K’tan Active that i bought by the recommendation of a friend/fellow mama. I decided to give this carrier a try because i wanted something easy i could just throw in the diaper bag and go, something that was lightweight and simple to put on for daily wear, and for the low price point the quality is unmatched! I am 5'2" and 150lbs and I ordered a size medium and it fits me very comfortably. My little one is 4 months old and around 15 lbs and I absolutely love this carrier, for MANY reasons. First of all this carrier is so easy to just put on and go, unlike other wrap style carriers i have seen there are not buckles, extravagant or time consuming wrapping, rings or belts. You can quite literally just slip it on like a t-shirt and put baby in and wa-lah! Second, i love how soft and breathable this fabric is (and a beautiful coral color, accurate to the advertised photo), i wish i would have had this when my baby was a newborn as i feel this would have been much more comfortable for her vs. my bigger bulky ergo baby carrier, and would have soothed her in times when i needed both hands but she also needed to be held. Plus, it is machine washable!! Anybody with a baby knows how important that is, between spit up, poopy blow outs, etc. babies are plain messy. Lastly, this carrier feels very secure with baby in it when positioned correctly, i cooked a full meal wearing my four month old, chores around the house, grocery shopping, absolutely no issue, she was very comfortable and so was i. This carrier comes with very clear instructions on use, but there are also tons of YouTube videos how to wear it that can be helpful, but it is SO easy to put on, i did it one time and i already had the hang of it! I would recommend this carrier to any of my expecting friends or friends/mamas/dads that are already a parent. I foresee us using this carrier as long as we can as our go to until my girl outgrows it!

Vale lo que cuesta, mas practico y fácil de usar que andarte enredando en fulares kilometricos, la tela de alta calidad y nada calurosa para mi BB que suda tanto.... Lo recomiendo al 100

I was looking for something like that since my baby was born.I've found lot of sling and had one but is so uncomfortable to wrap specially for me now...I'm going on holiday by plane and was looking for something more wearable and confy for both.I just opened now the package and tryed it. Soooooooo nice. Beautiful color and exactly my size!I will recomand this K'tan to my mums group

Already had the standard K'tan but both me and baby were getting too hot in it.This is excellent at keeping both of us cool in the sun and is much tighter than the standard one which means I don't have to keeping pulling down the cross at the back or redoing the separate band every 10 minutes.Excellent product and highly recommended from a babywearing Dad!

Easy to use, baby fits so snugly and stays warm. Instructions manual is also explained in an easy to understand method. Fabric is also very soft for both mother and child. Thank you!!

The sizing was completely wrong. Followed the guide and was extremely loose. Tried to contact for a size swap or further info but never got a response. Bought a different brand which was much better.
