The Rose and Rebellion carrier is very easy to use. You simply click together the waist band and tighten, then hold your baby on your front or back whilst you put the shoulder straps over your shoulders and tighten, and then clip together the strap which holds the shoulder straps in place. It is very comfortable to use and there are no trailing straps to get soggy when the ground is wet. My only criticism of this carrier is that it is not long enough in the body for my 15 month old son (who is, to be fair, very tall for his age). I did try it out with my friend’s little girl who is the same age and it fitted her beautifully. Overall, I think it is an ace carrier, but maybe not the best choice if you have a larger than average toddler.
I used the Rose and Rebellion carrier today and have to say I LOVED IT. I have previously been using a macpac carrier with my 1 year old, which is heavy even without my little one in it; you then add a rather heavy toddler and my goodness I used to feel like I was in training to be a royal marine!!! Also with my macpac I could obviously only carry my daughter on my back. The Rose and Rebellion carrier is much, much lighter and more versatile as I can carry her on my back or front. I personally like being able to carry her on my front again like I used to when she was tiny. I totally recommend this carrier to parents who like the straps of a back pack carrier but the lightness and versatility of a sling!
I purchased a Rose & Rebellion (All my hearts design
) before Christmas. The first couple of times I used it I felt that the straps were a bit uncomfortable, the left one felt a bit loose on the tightest setting, however after emailing Rose & Rebellion they suggested crossing the straps rather than using the chest strap. I now have fallen back in love with my Rose & Rebellion. It is easy to use and my baby at 5 months is happy to fall asleep in it. I think my problems lie in the fact that I am short in the body, but I feel this goes to show how versatile the Rose & Rebellion Carrier can be.
