Our son was with 3100g still too light and too small for others carrying systems. But as he, especially at the beginning, wanted to be worn much, the cloth was a great solution. Even if you feel a little uncertain beginning, you quickly realize that the baby is safely secured in it and it has very cozy. In particular, the elasticity has awarded me because I had nothing to worry about whether I have it possibly laced too tight. In the summer I switched on the Manduca because I just felt a cloth as too hot and now he is with 10kg a bit much in the springs. I have it still very often used and can only put every mom to my heart.
