Review on Vlokup Baby Wrap Sling Carrier For Newborns, Infants, Toddlers - Breathable Lightweight Stretch Mesh Water Sling Perfect Summer Pool Beach Swimming Shower Gift Gray. by Amy Dixon

I recommend that after baby's been riding in the carrier for .

I was looking for a light-weight baby wrap made out of mesh material and this was the most attractively priced for quality/design option. I was looking for a summer option for my infant and did not try to take this into the water. I preferred this over some other branded ones due to the fact that I felt it was the right mix of non-stretchy but not overly tight mesh material used to make the wrap and was reasonably priced.The key to wraps in general is the type of material used to make the wrap (let's be honest, the other "problems" are usually operator error) as you need some stretch in the fabric but still have tension to hold up a baby, which is often contradictory to the nature of breathable fabric, e.g. mesh. In this case, this is a lightweight mesh-esque material that's fairly breathable, think basic gym short material. This makes the fabric very slippery, and not always with a lot of slack. I found that the edges of the wrap were a bit more forgiving than some of the other ones I've encountered and my baby was not bothered by the edges riding up on his legs (whereas some other ones he squawked and was visibly uncomfortable), so it became the preferred use wrap.You do need to be practiced in putting a baby in a cotton wrap before attempting this due to the lack of slack and slippery fabric. Further, I recommend that after baby's been riding in the carrier for some time to adjust the material as it can ride up on the baby's butt. I don't think this should detract from the product necessarily because all wrap type carriers require tweaking over time.

Pros
  • Allows for easy diaper changes without removing the wrap
Cons
  • The product may not be suitable for all ages
