As parents, we want the best for our baby. Especially with our first kid, we do a ton of research on what is the best and latest item that is a must-have for our little one. A baby carrier, the ErgoBaby 360<\/a> carrier was one of the baby items we did a ton of research on.<\/p>\n I knew that it was a bit of an investment, but vowed to use it often. Now that we had it for a while, it’s definitely worth it. We brought on our trip to Disney<\/a> and used it everywhere we can (if we remember).<\/p>\n Before we continue, please feel free to check other baby related posts after reading this post:<\/p>\n Pin this for later!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Let’s get into my review of the Ergobaby 360<\/a> and also a quick tutorial on how to fold it back to compact size.<\/p>\n Contents<\/p> The purpose of a baby carrier such as the Ergobaby 360<\/a> is to carry the baby comfortably. What I find with this baby carrier is that it gets better as Baby K gets older. I have a different carrier that is more bamboo cloth based and that suited her when she was younger, but the Ergobaby 360<\/a> is pretty sturdy for her after she turned 5 months old.<\/p>\n Baby K seems to enjoy being close to me and yet look at her surroundings. This way I can put her in the carrier and walk around to do what I need to do. Also, when I go to the park with her, she can enjoy people watching and sitting on the swing strapped onto me.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I also read somewhere online that the Ergobaby is great for a baby’s legs posture and it supports the hip. Though I am not an expert on these things, it is comforting to know that I am putting my baby in the best position for the baby carrier.<\/p>\n This grey one that we bought online is so pretty. It is not just a standard black or beige one. You can choose what colour suits you best. It worked out for us because the grey one was on sale and in stock.<\/p>\n Also, the padding on the shoulder straps is pretty comfortable. Whenever I put the straps on, it does not feel that I am putting too much weight on my shoulder and back. You can adjust the straps and length to fit your body.<\/p>\n In terms of the design and comfort, I really like the Ergobaby 360<\/a> and Baby K seems to be comfortable sitting in it.<\/p>\n The Ergobaby 360 says that you can wear your baby in different ways either front, back, or side. I have only tried the front where Baby K faces me or faces away from me. Both work well and she seems to be comfortable.<\/p>\n I think when she gets a little older, we would try carrying her on our backs. I like that there is that flexibility, though I might want to encourage her to walk by herself instead of us carrying her.<\/p>\n It is a feature that is great if we need in the future.<\/p>\n When we take off the carrier, it can seem really bulky. I was trying to figure out how to put the Ergobaby 360 back into the box and could not figure it out at first.<\/p>\n It just looks like it has a lot of parts to pack away. However, I figure it out how I can fold it compactly. Please see the tutorial below.<\/p>\n I am not sure if this can be considered as a fault of the baby carrier, but I realized that she drools on or bites on the shoulder straps. Amazon actually has a solution for that where you can buy a drool and teething pad<\/a> for your carrier.<\/p>\n We do need to wash the Ergobaby 360 more often because of her drool, but the drool pad<\/a> would definitely come in handy.<\/p>\n Now for the quick tutorial on how to quickly pack your Ergobaby 360<\/a> carrier. When I am done with the folding, it is about 14″ x 5″ in size.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Thanks for reading.
