Question 1

Why is this one better than the others that are half the cost?

Accepted Answer

You can reference the infographic in the listing about that and there are several reasons. TushBaby is safety certified and contains no cancer causing chemicals. It’s made with high quality material including memory foam, YKK zippers, extra padding for comfort, double zippers and tons of storage under the seat and 4 other pockets (plus bottle pocket). We pride ourselves on having a safe and high quality product and we are run by two mamas in the Bay Area, California.

Question 2

Can you easily sit down and stand back up again while wearing it? Is it very bulky to keep on while not in use?

Accepted Answer

I have no problems sitting and standing back up while wearing the TushBaby. I have kept it on at times when not using - any bulkiness is ok for convenience of not putting on/off again (especially because of the great 4-part safety features: velcro, a loop the belt goes through, sturdy buckle and a little sliding lock on the buckle). If it's in the way, I twist it to the side or my back. It's very well designed with great added features and comfortable, high-quality materials & construction. Happy I paid more for TushBaby rather than going with a less expensive one that didn't seem to be of same quality and features.
* I'm very happy with my TushBaby! I'm using it with a ~6 month old that I've recently started watching for three consecutive 10 hour days - I'm 55 years old with a 24 and 20 year old, so my baby holding muscles are a bit out of shape. The little guy I'm watching still needs lots of support as he's only 6 months, but just taking a little of the weight off has really been a big relief to my arms and shoulders! Mom and Dad are also using it, as well as a 2nd sitter (full disclosure, she has only used it one day so far and says it's helpful for her arms but did comment she felt it in her lower back a bit. I see how this can happen and I'm fine if I shift the position of the seat on occasion and am conscious of engaging my core muscles when using it:).

Question 3

Is it worthy to buy?

Accepted Answer

I think it’s worth buying. I’ve read reviews saying how it digs into their hips after a while, but I don’t have that problem; Probably because my grandson is less than 25#.  The tushbaby is well made, helps alleviate stress on my back, and has useful pockets.

Question 4

What is the biggest waist size this can work with?

Accepted Answer

I wear a 22/24 in women’s pants.  The Velcro closure does not extend around my waist but the strap does and is comfortable even though the padding doesn’t extend far enough.
