Baby K'Tan Baby K'tan® Baby Carrier in Black

This carrier for mom or dad is an ideal ergonomically designed blend between a sling and a front baby carrier, offering eight positions including twins and preemies, all without complicated wrapping, buckling or complicated hardware. The double-sling design holds baby securely and distributes weight on both shoulders, with adjustable back support, like a structured carrier. It also assists in breastfeeding, with the second loop acting as a nursing cover. Includes a matching baby hat and sash with pocket. Made of 100% natural cotton that is machine washable and dryer safe. All sizes support babies from 5 to 42 pounds. Extra small fits women with a dress size from 0 to 4. Small fits women with a dress size from 6 to 8, and men with a jacket size up to 38. Medium fits women with a dress size from 10 to 12, and men with a jacket size from 39 to 42. Large fits women with a dress size from 14 to 16, and men with a jacket size from 43 to 46.

Love!

This is an amazing product. It is so easy to use and my baby feels so secure in it. I got a size smaller than I thought I would need and I am glad I did because I never feel like my baby is going to fall out. There are a lot of different wearing options. Love it!

Some Things to Consider
Date:July 17, 2011
My wife and I ended up returning the K'tan because we found it too difficult to use. We watched the video instructions several times and simply found it to be frustrating.
Also, in some positions (particularly newborn) the baby is completely wrapped in four layers of thick black cotton with the exception of her face. Not great in the summer time heat.

Great Carrier
Date:December 30, 2010
This is my third carrier. I have a hotsling, a baby bjorn, and now the baby k’tan and the k’tan wins hands down. The baby bjorn is nice, but my baby always looked uncomfortable in it. The sling was great when she was a newborn, but really strains your back and shoulders. I love that with the baby k’tan the weight is distributed on your back so it’s very comfortable. My baby loves it. I was going to buy a Moby wrap, but after seeing my friend putting it on, it just looked like such a hassle, so I decided to buy the baby k’tan which is way easier. This is a great carrier, you won’t be disappointed.

Comfortable and Practical!
Date:November 30, 2010
I cannot imagine why anyone would buy a different carrier!! The Baby Ktan is fast and easy to use, comfortable, adaptable, and costs less than many other carriers on the market. Aside from the carrier, the box also includes a matching sash and baby hat. It is also sanitary, since the whole carrier can be thrown in with your laundry at the end of the day. It is lightweight, painlessly distributes the weight evenly across your back and shoulders and has a fantastic weight capacity of up to 35 lbs! This brand of carrier is the first that I have purchased and will be the last! My husband has already purchased one for himself and I plan on purchasing another to use while my original is washing.

love it
Date:November 3, 2010
I can't believe I only just found the Baby K'tan carrier with my third child. I hear it's somewhat new, so I guess I can't blame myself! It is amazing product that I can now NOT imagine living WITHOUT. I use it daily. my son falls asleep the minute I put him in. the most amazing part is that I spend about 3 seconds putting it on and adjusting it, I used to spend 5-10 minutes putting on my wrap and my Bjorn. I also LOVE how great it feels when I wear it. My shoulders and back do not ache. I am gifting every pregnant friend with this carrier! Kudos to the creators!

great for twins
Date:June 8, 2010
This baby carrier is comfortable and has many positions to hold your baby. It held my twins at the beginning. Now only one at a time. My kids are 4months and like the cradle or hug-position. Sizing: I ended up getting a 2nd carrier because the first one was to large. If you are in between sizes....select one size down. Super soft fabric. I highly recommend this product.
