Who is it for?

You can choose to buy an infant insert but it can be hot especially if you are living in a place with warm climate.
The carrier will fit any adult wearer because of its adjustable straps. Petite moms will have no problem using this carrier.
Pros
- It can be easily adjusted so if you have a few people using the carrier it will take seconds to fit correctly.
- Very simple, user friendly design. You can put the carrier on and off easily.
- Wide leg room for the baby. It positions the baby’s leg in a more natural and neutral position avoiding any possible injuries in the future.
- It is very durable and you should get many years of use out of this if you look after it.
Cons
- It has no frontal storage or pockets where you can put small items such as pacifiers or cellphones and other small items.

Why you should buy it?
The Ergobaby 360 baby carrier is worth investing in because of the quality and versatility that it offers. It is durable and adjustable. You can adjust the shoulder straps and the waist belt according to your body size and height.
It is also lightweight when folded and you can carry this on your travel or while you are on vacation.
Verdict
This carrier is quite versatile. You can use this when you are running errands or even when you are just doing household chores around the house. The fact that you can use this to carry your baby in four different ways is a great feature.
It has all the basic things that you’ll need in a carrier – adjustability, functionality, and comfort. Moms love it but for some the Velcro strap for the waist belt is an issue.
I think they chose to use Velcro straps to prevent buckles from digging into your back and hip area.
The design is sleek and compact, but to be able to achieve this, the provision for storage spaces was sacrificed. This means that you still need your purse or diaper bag with you.
