 SIDs RISK September 26, 2008
N. Jones (Augusta, GA USA)
This sling is dangerous! My baby balled up at the bottom and was chin to chest which is a huge risk for SIDs.
I recommend the custom fitted pouch style slings from www.slingmommy.com.
You can pick your fabric, they're reversible, and they are made to fit your body.
Horrible September 5, 2008
Crystal (CT, USA)
I returned it the day after I bought it. I felt like my 1 month old was going to suffocate, the strap to hold him in was a joke, it hurt my neck badly, he screamed the 1 time I tried to put him in.. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone!
A lawsuit waiting to happen August 24, 2008
Noteli (New York NY)
I would avoid this carrier at all costs. First, there are SO many better options out there, many of them available on Amazon. [...] has detailed reviews for all kinds of carriers (ring slings, pouches, structured carriers like the Ergo) that are both easier to use and more comfortable that this one. I carried my son in a carrier from day 1, and we found so many great, comfortable options (Moby, Hotsling, Maya Wrap, Ergo, Beco).
Second and more importantly, though, this carrier is just plain unsafe. It puts a newborn baby in the VERY dangerous position of having his/her chin to her chest and risks cutting off air supply. AND then the design is to have this thick fabric over the baby's face. Both of these make this carrier unsafe beyond belief. Please, please look elsewhere for a good carrier for your baby. This one is just a lawsuit waiting to happen.
 Baby likes the sling June 11, 2008
H. Chiang
Got this sling as a gift and is the only one I've ever used so have no other comparison...I like the sling because it seems easy to use and I don't need help getting it on. I think the key to being able to use this is to adjust the strap to the proper length. If you don't then your shoulders/back gets tired really easy. Once I got the proper length, I could use the sling for several hours before I got tired. My baby has loved this sling from day one.
Cons: strap can be difficult to adjust, when putting sling on, baby can seem like he's not supported as well. To compensate, I just support the baby with one hand and then put the sling over my shoulder with the other hand. Wish that the part of the sling where the baby's head is was more padded. (I'm always paranoid I'll not pay attention and accidentally bump something...so I usually put my hand where his head is, just in case.)

I purchased this for my newborn two years ago, and he hated it. I think it must be the sling because he loves ring slings, pouch slings, mei tais, wraps, and more structured carriers, in the cradle positions, upright positions, everything-- in fact I am still wearing him and he is a toddler!
Infantino is fine for shopping cart covers and rattles but after reading safety concerns regarding the Infantino slingrider (not just the recalled version, but the inappropriate position it puts the baby in), I am sorry that I gave it away, I wish I had just thrown it out :(
