Ergo Baby Carrier Compared to BabyTrekker Baby Sling Carrier
The babies in our family all use the Baby Trekker (BabyTrekker) baby sling carrier. Some of our friends use a really good carrier called the Ergo baby carrier. I thought it would be interesting to compare the two beds.

Ergo baby sling carrier

* Padding for the buckles: There is no padding under the buckles.

* Wide straps for comfort: Straps are narrower which reduces the comfort.
* Front pocket: No front pocket.
* Number of positions: 3 positions - Back position facing inward, front position facing inward, hip position.
