Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
We bought 2 of these...one for each of our 15 mo old twin girls. They seem to be very comfortable in the carriers, and one even fell asleep on our very first hike with the new packs. There is a head rest for them to fall asleep on if need be, which I believe is washable. The straps on the packs are able to be adjusted for your comfort, and such that you will feel no weight on your shoulders. Cell phone pocket on waist band is easily accessible. The kick stand frame locks and is very sturdy and pack will not fall over while loading your child. It is possible to reach back and pull frame in once child is on your back (if you have long arms), but is much easier if someone does it for you, or you can back up against a tree. Deuter just makes a far more superior product than other companies out there, and have a higher safety standard than other products out there. I doubt you would be dissappointed in this child carrier.
