A comparison of the different Ergobaby models available on MaltamumShop
Most probably you have heard that Ergobaby is one of the best ergonomic baby wearing brands in the world, alongside with the sister brand Baby Tula (another blog post will follow ;) )! Ergobaby has been winning multiple international awards again and again year after year, the parents’ reviews are ravishing, and it is fully endorsed by health professionals and doctors worldwide, including the Hip Dysplasia Institute.
Fun fact: the Ergobaby Carriers are the only baby carriers to be listed as one of the ”Top 20 baby products over the last 20 years” by Parenting magazine!
If you are new to baby wearing in Malta, you might find it difficult to decide which Ergobaby carrier is best for your needs. This is why I wrote down a basic comparison of the different Ergobaby models, that come in over 30 beautiful designs:
1) Ergobaby Original
The Ergobaby Original holds up to 20kg. It comes with a large pocket with a zipper for keys, mobile etc. It also has a rain / wind hood for the baby’s head.
3 ergonomic baby wearing positions: front-inwards, hip and back.
2) Ergobaby 360
The Ergo 360 is the only one in the market that offers an ergonomic forward facing position, has a wider waistband, is easier to fasten (velcro and buckle), and can be worn higher or lower to maximize comfort. Particularly handy for women who’ve had a c-section. This one holds up to 15kg and doesn’t have a pocket. It has a rain / wind hood for the baby’s head.
4 ergonomic baby wearing positions: front-inwards, front-outwards, hip and back. With its unique, structured bucket seat, baby will always be in an ergonomic frog-leg, seated position with her spine in an optimal “C” position, which allows you to wear baby facing outward safely and comfortably.
3) Ergobaby 360 cool air (mesh fabric for max breathability)
The Ergo 360 Air Carbon Grey, the Ergobaby 360 Cool Air Icy Mint and Ergobaby 360 French Blue carriers offer 4 babywearing positions like the other 360 carriers but they are made with cool mesh fabric instead of cotton, and do not have velcro on the waistband but a clip.
The Ergo360 cool air carrier comes with a rain / wind hood for the baby’s head. No pocket.
4 ergonomic baby wearing positions: front-inwards, front-outwards, hip and back. With its unique, structured bucket seat, baby will always be in an ergonomic frog-leg, seated position with her spine in an optimal “C” position, which allows you to wear baby facing outward safely and comfortably.
4) Ergobaby Omni 360
The all-in-one, Ergo Omni 360, has all the carry positions and can be used from birth without the need of an infant insert. It’s a combo of the classic Ergobaby 360 and the Ergobaby Adapt carrier. Extra-padded crossable shoulder straps and lumbar support waistband with a clip offer a new level of convenience and comfort for parents. Great for a snug fit for petite moms and those who prefer easy buckling on the front!
The ErgoOmni comes with a rain / wind hood for the baby’s head. A detachable storage pouch is included.
4 ergonomic baby wearing positions: front-inwards, front-outwards, hip and back. With its unique, structured bucket seat, baby will always be in an ergonomic frog-leg, seated position with her spine in an optimal “C” position, which allows you to wear baby facing outward safely and comfortably.
Ergobaby’s first ever insert-less newborn-ready baby carrier gives you the renowned comfort and ergonomics for baby and parent, and an innovative ergonomic seat that gradually adjusts to your growing baby. The new Ergobaby ADAPT is easy-to-use, from newborn to toddler (3.2kg-20kg), no insert needed. Extra-padded crossable shoulder straps and lumbar support waistbelt offer a new level of convenience and comfort for parents. Great for a snug fit for petite moms and those who prefer easy buckling on the front! It comes in two fabrics, cotton or cool mesh, and in various designs.
3 ergonomic baby wearing positions: front-inwards, hip and back.
The use of an Ergobaby Infant Insert is mandatory for the first 4 months (full term babies) whereas it is usually necessary for 6 months. The only Ergobaby carriers that can be used from birth without an insert are the Adapt and Omni 360 carriers.
