The Manduca baby carrier I can not cope, because the straps cut below the chest and - especially if you breastfeeding - is very unfavorable. The Bondolino other hand, is very pleasant due to the relatively wide padded straps for the transferor and cuts a nowhere. Our son is now 4 months old and loves to be worn in Bondolino. If he is restless, cries or wants to sleep, but can not find the rest, we'll take him in the Bondolino and it takes less than 5 minutes until he falls asleep.
In Bondolino babies correct ergonomic posture in the spread-squat-attitude and have a nice round back as Solte be loud babywearing consultant also; as opposed to Manduca, which is in this respect recommended until age seat. The Bondolino, if the child can keep his head independently, be used as a backpack.
Even if both partners should take, but vary in size, which is not a problem because the Bondolino adapts thanks to the carrier, which are bound, and it must not be adjusted.
Partial was criticized here that the web is too wide for newborns. While it is true that the web is wider, but included a band is included, which allows you to reduce the web! Simply bind to dock and fixed nodes and just make sure that the baby is not on the node sits ;-) Later you can also widen the bridge, when the child grows. In very small babies, it is also possible to take these fully into the Bondolino so that the legs do not look out (as you could make it in slings ...).
Others criticize the Velcro that allows the hip belt is closed. I can only say that the real "bomb-proof" sitting and not that the entire weight of the child care there is so evenly distributed on the shoulders because the cloth in the back of the baby especially are holding. I do not feel that the hip belt is heavily loaded, and our son is not a lightweight!
Although we have even a woven sling, but we would never want to miss the Bondolino! The baby is ruckzuck and unceremoniously in a minute in the carrying system, and done! Unlike the sling Eigent the Bondolino also on the go, if you want the baby out of the car and take the portable system. Hang the sling but the ends always in the dirt, you can let the carrier from Bondolino in the car while you enter sets the child. And the carrier firstonce over their shoulders, can no longer depend on the ground.
I usually write reviews barely - and certainly not such a long :-) - but here I had to make an exception! The Bondolino can I highly recommend !! The purchase is worthwhile in any case!
