MINIMEIS G3 Ergonomic Baby & Toddler Shoulder Carrier Backpack | Ultra Lightweight - 3.3 lbs | for Kids 6 Months – 5 Years

Not that I didn't trust my husband when he would carry our son on his shoulders, but I would just die a little inside as I freaked the F out thinking he was going to fall. Since shoulder carrying is the preferred method of transportation for my husband I was so excited when I found this awesome carrier! I can now relax when my precious little guy is happily riding in this very secure and comfortable carrier. I love it, my husband loves it, and my little guy loves it!It is also very light weight, folds up pretty small, and is quality made. Totally recommend this to anyone!#shutupandtakemymoney

I realize I have broad shoulders, but every image of this thing you see online is of a thin person. Add any bit of muscle or fat and it is snug, cutting off circulation under the arms. In addition, the leg straps are too small (short) for my 2.5 year old and the buckles were not child proof enough. My son could unbuckle himself as well as unhook the velcro on his legs. My Deuter hiking backpack provides better lumbar support and although my kid sits on my back vs. shoulders 100% safer. I reached out to the company to return but they did not respond. Amazon did the right thing and credited the purchase even though the seller/manufacturer didn't back up their own product.

As my husband and I are dramatically different sizes, we ordered this hoping it would fit either my narrow shoulders and slender frame, or his broad shoulders and barrel chest. No such luck. While the carrier is clearly high quality in terms of materials/craftsmanship, the design wasn't great. It didn't' fit either of us. We could get it on alright but the second our kiddo wiggled it was thrown off-kilter and really uncomfortable. I wound up with a big gap between the back of my shoulders and the carrier straps/arch and my back was KILLING me after a short walk with my ~25lb 18 month old. Couldn't use the strap across the front (the instructions advise "moms" to leave this unbuckled to accommodate breasts). Husband had an issue wherein the the metal bars supporting the seat back went diagonal and were digging into his back - ouch! Toddler did seem to enjoy it, but wasn't losing his mind with happiness so I think we'll stick to the standard backpack carrier for our hiking needs. If you're built like the people in the advertisement and/or your kid demands shoulder rides I can see where this product could be functional.Now, the return process is ongoing but it's been a full week and nary a peep from the seller after submitting my request. I'm now stuck with the A to Z process on Amazon to get my money back and this contraption returned. The whole experience has been thoroughly underwhelming.

This product is Amazing. Fits my 6'4 husband with room to spare.Made for Dads by Dads and it shows. All of the detailing that most companies put into baby carriers for Moms are put into this "carrier" for Dads.I can see how this product will grow with my baby as well. He is 8 months old in this photo and fits into this carrier very securely. I can see how this will work up until he is around 5 years old so I truly feel that I am getting my money's worth.Husband says that this is very comfortable even after having it on for an extended period of time.Out of all of the carriers out there, this is THE must buy. We returned our other $200 highly rated carrier that we had because it just sat in the closet. Baby didn't love it and it was kind of a pain. This one is used every single day. My kid can't stop grinning ear to ear when he is on top of Dad's shoulders. When we bring it out he lights up!Folds up way more compactly than I expected too.I can't say enough good things about this. Just buy it. You won't regret it.

I got this for my husband for Father's Day but he didn't want it. I submitted a request for a return and followed up 4 days later but they haven't responded in over a week. So, I guess I will find a friend who is interested in it I can give it to.

I myself found this very uncomfortable on my neck and shoulders, but my husband loves it! It was his Father’s Day gift, and he still tells me it was a great one. So, it seems to be a bit of a subjective experience using it, but I’m happy I got it for him (I myself prefer the hip seat, which he hates).

I bought this for my son and my one year old grandson. My son says it is awesome and he and my grandson go for walks on a regular basis. He says it is very easy to use.

Perfect for a vacation full of hiking. 1 year old loved it!! Doesn’t have a lot of room to adjust for adult. Perfect for average sized adults, tight on my 2xlt husband.
