:yeahthat: PLEASE try to find a local Babywearing group, so you can try before you buy! You can often let the group know prior to a meetup which carrier/s you're interested in trying out, and the parents in the group will be happy to help you out and bring them to the meeting if they own said carriers.But for everyone saying they like one, you'll have someone that likes the other better! It's so personally decided!
ETA: Are there any local babywearing chapters or groups around you (maybe try thebabywearer.com)? That way you could go to a meeting and try some diffrent ones out without buying...or a store that carries several different types of carriers?
I currently work for a baby carrier manufacturer, so I have to refrain from giving advice on any specific carrier/s. I can tell you that my husband and I tried a LOT of buckled carriers once upon a time, because I'm 5'5" and he's 6'5" and our then-toddler was a tall leaner. Most of the ones that worked for DH caused major shoulder pain/pulling for me, and some that I liked didn't fit him at all. So if you're going to share the carrier with another caregiver, make sure they try it on too! Good luck!!!
