The design of the Moby Wrap uses your entire back, as well as your shoulders, to carry the weight of your baby. Unlike other carriers, which have narrow straps or go across one shoulder, the Moby Wrap is a wide piece of fabric that is wrapped over both shoulders. It is amazingly comfortable and easy to wear. There are no buckles, snaps or other fasteners. It is easy to adjust the fit of your Moby Wrap by varying how tightly you wrap yourself and your baby.

A Must Have for Active Moms!
I LOVE my Moby wrap! My daughter is 6 weeks old and she loves it as well. She cries whenever she is put down and will only fall asleep while being held. My husband & I disagree with the "cry it out" philosophy, so the Moby Wrap allows our daughter's needs to be met while we still have two free hands. There are several ways to tie the wrap ([...] has instructions) and, unlike some carriers, it will grow with the baby.
Winter has come early in NY, yet I can still take her out for walks or shopping. If we're heading out in the car, I put the wrap on at home (don't want the long ends dragging on the ground as I try to put it on in a parking lot). When we arrive at our destination, in the warmth of the car, I slip her into the Moby wrap, pull the fabric up over her, and wrap my coat around her. She is protected from the cold as well as germs from those who want to stroke her cute little cheeks and hands!
Although I feel like I couldn't live without my Moby Wrap, there are a few drawbacks:
1) The fabric is a thick cotton -- great for keeping mom & baby warm in cooler temps, but seems too thick for summer. At home, I keep our thermostat lower when I'm wearing my daughter because it generates quite a bit of heat.
2) As with any baby carrier, it can be difficult to maintain good posture while wearing your baby. In someone prone to back pain, this may not be the best option.
That said, I feel the Moby Wrap is a must have for active moms! It's a great way to bond with your baby, maintain a sense of freedom (& sanity!:), and help a fussy baby be content.
comfortable, easy to use
Review:
It was easy to use. The video from the website helped the most, but the instructions were easy to use. It' looks really complicated, but after doing it once in front of the instructions and once without the instructions, I never looked at them again.
It was comfortable. With miles of walking around all day, my back didn't hurt. The only time I had to readjust and tighten is after the 6th hour of carrying him through the zoo and museum, but I did so easily.
Also notable: If baby leaks, you get wet. It's really hard to use a public rest room alone. If you drink or eat, baby can reach it. The baby stays really warm against you and under your coat if needed. This may not be a good thing in the summer, but it was great in the winter.
As a heavy set child-rearing grandmother, I was worried about my 41-year old back while carrying around a 25lb 7-month old. We were going to NYC with a 19-month old and a 7-month old. Dbl strollers don't mix with the subway system so I bought an umbrella stroller and this Moby wrap. It worked through the miles of walking and kept him warm against me in the cold. We went through museums, zoos, shopping, subways, restaurants, etc. I wish I would have bought this a LOT sooner.
Absolutely the best
I purchased the Moby for my daughter for Christmas. It has been the best gift I've ever given! She uses it everyday, not just when out and about. Our littlest grandaughter is just now 2 months old and sits (and sleeps) very comfortably while wrapped snugly to her mommy.
I highly recommend the Moby for all moms and babies. I wish I had one when mine were little!
