Product Review:
For Mommy ~ The Good:
The best part of the carrier is the lumbar support. After using other brands of baby Carriers such as Baby Bjorn and a Boba Wrap, I feel that the Lille provided twice as much support to my lower
back compared to other brands. As someone who has struggled with back problems on and off, I would HIGHLY
recommend this product to a mom who wants to "baby wear" but is afraid it will
be to
taxing on her back.
Also, I like that this carrier can go up to 45lbs. I
intend to baby wear for sometime, and this carrier would last much longer than
the Bjorn or Boba in that department. In this way I can continue to carry baby up through early toddler years and still have the comfort and support that I have now with my little one.
For Mommy ~ The Bad:
It took me a LONG time figure out how to
comfortably wear this carrier. There are many adjustable straps - which I assume
would be helpful as baby grows - but initially it took a lot of adjusting and
readjusting to make it comfortable for me and for the baby. After 4 tries I
started to feel comfortable sitting this on by myself, but before then I needed
help as the carrier hooks in the back by your neck and it was tricky at first.
Also, it took a bit of time to adjust the seat width setting - and it is
essential for you to do this in order for your baby not to be miserable. The
Bjorn and Boba are heads and shoulders above LILLE in terms of simplicity of
design and user friendliness. I still have not figured out the Side position,
and I don't have enough guts to try the back-pack position. But I have no doubt
that with enough practice these too could prove comfortable for mom and
baby.
For Baby ~ The Good and the Bad:
Once all the adjustments were made my baby seemed
pretty comfortable. Baby sat forward facing comfortably and also really seemed
comfortable facing in. In terms of comfort I would say the Lille is pretty good.
If you are carrying your baby for long stretches of time I would recommend this
over the Boba or Bjorn. I think it is more comfortable for both baby and mommy.
Also the fabric is fairly breathable which helped for Baby not to get too warm
while in the carrier, which can be a problem with the Boba.
Overall opinion:
I would say that overall, the LÍLLÉbaby COMPLETE baby carrier is heads and tails above the rest. For quality, comfort, and length of use (can continue as baby grows) it would be my first choice of carrier. For ease of use, it takes quite a bit of practice and figuring out before I felt comfortable doing it on my own. A great product and one that I highly recommend to anyone wanting to baby wear!
