Lovely sling, very comfortable and sturdy. Baby comfy too. I prefer to my old ergo 360 original that I had with first baby. Staff so helpful too

I love this carrier, itis so lightweight, easy and versatile to use. I have no issue carrying my 2 year old on long trips. The carrier makes it very easy. Even when she is walking its less noticeable to wear than a rucksack and it’s easy enough to pop her in when she is tired.
The staff were excellent ag advising a suitable carrier.

Comfortable to wear, and fairly easy to put on in a hurry when out. Loving the versatility of the options of how to wear it so far – very helpful in adjusting with a fast growing newborn. Tammy was very helpful with her care and advice too.

We have three carriers but the Manduka is by far and away the best of the lot, and the only one both parents find comfortable to wear. It’s the only one we recommend to other parent friends!
Kitty (verified owner) –
Purchased this after borrowing the same model from our local shopping library, so I knew we would like it, but after a few weeks it’s exceeded expectations – easy to make comfortable for hours of use for either parent and for our large six-month-old, whether around the house or out on a long walk.
Hannah Wallace –
So happy to hear that, Kitty!
