like the ergo baby carrier, but this one broke
February 15, 2013
I had used a friend's ergo carrier and loved it, and when she had another baby I decided to buy an ergo of my own. So I recently ordered an Ergo Baby Carrier in Black with Solid Camel Lining from AlbeeBaby.com. It arrived, looked fine, and I used it to carry my son several times. However, the second time I wanted to use the nap/head support hood, I found that one of the snaps was broken-- the (male?) part of the snap that's attached to the shoulder strap. While the rest of the carrier works fine for carrying my son around while he's awake (which I do on a daily basis, as we do not own a car and it's impractical to use a stroller for most of our errands), it's a bit wearisome to have to support his head with my hand when he falls asleep, as well as very disappointing that it broke so quickly. I emailed Albee two weeks ago and have yet to hear back.
