Ergo Carrier - Sport Model

Hi ladies,

does anyone have this carrier and if so, is it significantly cooler than the standard Ergo? My DD2 is a little heater and i trialled a friends standard Ergo and it was just too hot for both her and so i was wondering if the Sport model is actually cooler as stated on their website?

any info greatly appreciated!

I have the sport. DH tried on all the models at the preg&baby expo & yes it's much lighter. It's great, we love it & have used it from birth. It's really comfortable & easy to use! We went for the sport because you can always dress bub warmer but much harder to keep them cooler on a hot day.

I have the Sport, too. I haven't used it much yet, have been using the Breeze Baby. Am I the only one who feels like you need to be a contortionist to put the Ergo on? I have a lot of trouble with the strap across the back and even the studs for the sleepy hood seem very far back and difficult to reach?

Nickle - I just leave the hood attached to the snaps and it tucks into the pocket when you aren't using it. As for the strap across the back, I can't do it either, but have never really needed to either, DH does it for me if I want it done up if he is there.

Negrita - yes, it is much lighter and much cooler than the original.

Have you tried loosening the strap all the way out before you put it on? I don't have trouble with mine but maybe I have bendy arms :)

lol to bendy arms babyluv, I am the same.. I can do it up but I have flexible shoulders...

I have the original Ergo and it is a bit hot but not too bad. I probably should have gotten the sport cause we should be getting posted to Townsville after here!! oops.
