A comfortable, practical and secure baby carrier!
Purchased the ergobaby performance carrier for our second child after trying other brands and styles with bub #1. Such a shame that we didn't try the Ergobaby sooner as it is far superior to the others we had tried. It is comfortable to wear (for both myself and my husband), easy to adjust, simple to set up for bub, very comfortable for bub, easy to position front, back or on the hip and suitable for children up to about 20kg. It's come in so handy for travel, and even when we're lugging big suitcases around, you hardly notice you're wearing the ergobaby! I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a comfortable, safe, and versatile baby carrier.

The best baby product I have bought, hands down
I've actually come all the way to this site just to write this review because I love this carrier SO much.
As a dad I call this my 'secret weapon': whenever my little boy (now 8 weeks) is screaming his head off, I get up like Superman, pop on the Ergobaby, and slip him in there. He's silent within 60 seconds — if not, a little short walking and he's out like a light. The ONLY exception is when he's genuinely hungry (and even then, I can usually get him to sleep).
Words can't express how grateful his mum is for this thing. I have him almos...Read more
t more than her — I work from home and constantly have a sleeping bub strapped to my chest (like right now as I write). I use this thing way more than the expensive pram we have. I just prefer having my hands free, and there's something special about having the baby on your chest. The weight distribution isn't bad; if you do it right, 90% of the weight is on your hips (you have to do it up REAL tight). I do get some mild shoulder pain from extended wearing but I think that's an adjustment issue which I'll be able to solve.2 comments

Hi Daniel, Thank you so much for taking the time to come across to this site to leave this awesome review! It makes us so happy here at Ergobaby to hear from parents who are loving our product. Our... Read more
goal is to help make parenting that little bit easier and it's so great to hear that our carrier is doing that for you. In regard to feeling a little hot at times, jump onto our website and we have a few tips on how to keep yourself and baby cool whilst using a carrier and insert. You are right, once you stop using the insert it will be cooler, but until then you may find some of those tips useful.
No worries at all!
I want to update my review for anyone still looking ... my son is now 9 months. The original trip to Japan went as smoothly as can be with my Ergobaby, and we're going again next w... Read more
eek. He's a LOT heavier than he used to be -- but with the Ergo putting the weight on the hips, I honestly cannot feel a difference at all. I can still carry him for hours.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!
Definitely would not reccomend
I did my research and came to the conclusion the Ventus was for me as I live in a very warm area and I was planning on using this carrier while I went to some fitness classes and also teaching some mums and bubs classes too. In the shop when trying on it didn't seam too different to the original so I went with it.
I cannot wear this for over an hour without severe back pain and my hubby gets terribly sore shoulders/back too. Bub also didn't like it. I mean, he would fall asleep in it at first but when he would wake up he would be in a panic ...Read more
screaming. I went to a local baby wearing group where they made sure I was wearing it right and one of the mums gave me the original and it's SO much better. I could wear it for 3+ hours and when bub woke up in it he was relaxed and happy to look around. I definitely would chose the original over the ventus if I were to try again. I've been in contact with customer service and they were lovely but I'm not sure if there will be anything I can do about this purchase.1 comment

Great mesh design but bub unhappy
I love the ergobaby performance ventus as it's so airy for hot climate. Unfortunately the top of the carrier and between straps where baby's face is so claustrophobic and narrow my 6 month old boy who's actually tall enough to have his head above the carrier cried the moment I put him in. I felt like his neck, head and face is wrapped around by the carrier. Wish ergobaby will make it wider here and option to fold down the edge supporting neck for smaller babies so they are not totally covered. Also front facing outward would be great! I love it but it's the only carrier which made bb cried. So I opted for ergo 360. Great product but really hot for tropics. If only you have mesh material.

Good carrier infant insert is trouble
I read a few reviews and spoke to.some friends and their comments were spot on. The carrier is good, supportive etc but given.how fiddly the infant insert is, probably best for bubs 3/4 months upwards. Also, the clips are pretty stiff and I really struggle with the one across the shoulders, you need elastic arms for sure.

Comfy but tricky to put on
I bought a Ventus to use with a slightly older bub (9 months plus) when my babybjorn started to get uncomfortable, and when I wanted a carrier for a back position so we could do some bushwalking. Baby is certainly comfortable in it, and it's pretty comfortable to wear in the front and back positions, so definitely no complaints there. My main issue is that in a front position it's near impossible to put on by myself, as I cannot reach around to do up the back latch (even in its lowest setting), and also in the hip position (which bub loves) it...Read more
is just horribly uncomfortable with the strap digging sharply into my neck. So all up, I'm happy with the ventus because I'm really only after the back carry position, however if I had bought this for a young bub I would have been disappointed, as the flexibility, for me, is not there.Similar opinion?
