    Product Description
    The classic original from Baby Bjorn. In our famous Baby Bjorn Original Baby Carrier your child is safe and close to you, while your hands are free. The Baby Bjorn Original Baby Carrier is a comfortable and easy-to-use baby carrier ideally designed for use during everyday activities, both indoors and out.

    Baby Bjorn Original Baby Carrier provides excellent support for your baby?s back and head and guarantees that his/her legs and arms are in a physiologically correct position. When your baby is a little older and has a stronger neck, the neck-rest can be folded down so that the child can face forwards and look around.

     LOVE IT!, 2010-09-06
    I love the BabyBjorn! I thought it was ridiculous to spend this much money on a carrier that I probably wouldn't be using for very long but after trying a friend's I was convinced. My infant falls asleep almost everytime he is in the carrier and he seems very comfy when riding. I feel like he is secure when I am carrying him which was obviously very important. I will say that after using the carrier for more than an hour, I do feel some fatigue in my shoulders. The only thing that I would like to see is a pocket or something that I could use to put my phone and keys in.
     it's not a NEW one!, 2010-08-20
    I bought a baby bjorn from this seller. It says "NEW" , however, when I got it, it said "used only once" and had no package.
    Who does know it's really used only once...
    If I had known that it's a used one, I might not have bought it.
    I feel so awful.


     Inconvenient to use, 2010-08-11
    I guess I can understand why some people like this carrier. Once you have the baby in it, it is comfortable to wear. However, if you are taking the baby out and putting him back in repeatedly (say, for example, while running errands) for short periods of time, you will get sick of it quickly. It is not easy to balance a baby, especially a larger baby, while attaching the sliders and buttons. I also got uncomfortably hot wearing this carrier, which is padded and almost feels insulated, holding the baby's body heat against me. Furthermore, my baby was unhappy in it, but that is primarily because he never liked being confined in any way.

    To sum up:
    This is a good carrier to wear with a small baby, for extended periods of wear, in cool weather.
    This is not a good carrier to wear running errands or for short periods of time, for a larger baby, or in warm climates.
    If your baby hates confinement like my son did, you probably won't find any baby carrier satisfactory.
     Two babies later - still going strong, 2010-08-05
    We really enjoy the baby Bjorn carrier and have had this classic style since 2008. We recently brought it back out for our four month old and often use it in lieu of a double-stroller when we're on the go. I have used it to take both of my children to the grocery store. I find that less people try and touch your child when you're holding them close in a baby carrier! plus it allows me to place my toddler in the seat and go shopping without waiting on someone else to come home.

    Our only complaint with this carrier is that as the child grows the pressure on your neck and shoulders can really take a toll, which is why we will probably put this away by the time she's 20 pounds. It is really just too uncomfortable to carry them for long periods of time once they pass that weight mark. I would still consider it a good buy though.
     Good for the first few months, but quickly grew out of it, 2010-08-04
    I registered for a Baby Bjorn (the classic version) like many other parents out there, as it seemed to be the top choice. This carrier worked out for about 3 months at most -- My daughter is 4 1/2 months old now, we didn't use it the first month (as she needed to be 8 lbs) and now at 13 1/2 lbs and 25" long, it seems she is growing out of it (granted, she is perhaps a bit longer than other babies her age, but still). Her head comes WAY above the supporting piece, especially if she has cloth diapers on, but even with disposables the carrier seems to be too small.

    Additionally, I've started to get serious shoulder pain that lasts well after I've worn the carrier -- I'm 5'4", in pretty good shape considering I just had a baby, and several of my new mom friends have had the same experience.

    Pros:
    -Feels very secure to have baby inside
    -Relatively easy (I think, anyway) to get baby strapped in
    -At the current list price on Amazon, much cheaper than other carriers

    Cons:
    -Doesn't seem to last very long as baby has grown out of it quickly
    -Shoulder/back pain, as there is no hip/back support in the classic model
    -Gets pretty toasty as it doesnt seem to breathe well

    I have to say I would not recommend this product to anyone planning to wear their baby around a lot. If you just want something quick and easy for the first few months, this could work, but any extended use (i.e. if you like to hike, or if you would like to wear baby for longer) I would recommend looking into another model of the Bjorn, or perhaps a different brand. Be sure to check the length adjustment of the carrier you end up with to ensure it will grow with baby -- the Bjorn classic model only adjusts to 26" so that has seriously limited how long we could use it, and we will probably end up buying the Ergo.
