Light but not worth it

As you have probably read, yes this is a very light carrier. But that doesn't necessarily make it a good carrier. You have to have 2 people load the kid in because it won't stay open by itself, and keeps falling over if you try loading it by yourself. Second, the kids legs get so spread apart because of the bag in the middle, that they are not comfortable and lastly, they may be tight in the pack... but they are able to rock forward and back because there is no frame above the kids feet. Its hard to explain but it is a factor. The Kelty, for example, has a frame around the child that keeps them from being able to fall against your back or go the opposite way and it keeps it open for easy loading and allows them to sit in it more comforable and their feet hang straight down and I have found that makes them more comfortable as well. This pack is built very well, just not well thought out. I took it back after one use.
