Review: Outstanding bag - I haven't tried the other child carriers, but I have a nice Osprey and a nice Thule hiking bag, the kind with the internal frame and all the little features they have these days. I also have my old Army ALICE pack, which is honestly not terrible, but isn't comparable to these things. This Kelty is my first experience with the company. The bag is solid, looks awesome, the blue looks like faded denim rather than a flat color. The most important thing about enjoying this is to read the short manual and get it open and ready before using. If you place the shoulder straps out of the bag, have the height set, put the baby or toddler in, then latch and tighten it up, it is very easy, the child is safe and comfortable. But if you don't do that, it is too confusing to figure out on the fly with a child in the way. The weight is supported well, but not perfectly. My child hangs out the bag moving around, and it's just not the tight center that a well packed bag would have. My shoulders feel fine, my hips too, thanks to the really nice belt and shoulder straps. They are really good. There's not a ton of storage. This isn't that kind of bag. It's not even as much as my diaper bag has. But there's enough for a couple diapers, water, snacks, and a place for dirty diapers or something else. Also space for a water bag, stretchy slots for its straw, stretchy side for a thermos or water bottle. There are also feet straps. My daughter seems to like taking her feet out and playing with them with her hands. I don't really care. My daughter adores this thing. She is all smiles, singing the whole time. The only real trouble is picking the bag up with her in it, and it's not bad at all depending on your upper body strength. The kickstand is easily closed if you have long arms (I am six feet tall) but if you don't you can't reach it. To be honest, I don't think you necessarily have to close it. I get jealous looks at the park hiking around while other parents have strollers. I just seem to be having a great time. My daughter is only a couple inches over my head, but she can see enough and I don't have to worry at all about hitting her head. It's not hard to see your baby wearing this. She doesn't have any marks or really tiredness from the walks. My longest hike is six miles and it's a great workout.
Review: Great hiking carrier - This is a great hiking carrier. My husband has used it three times now with our 10 month old. What we like is that it’s lightweight, there is plenty of pockets, and we especially like that the seat where the baby/child sits is ergonomically correct. It positions their weight evenly across their bottom and legs. No crotch sitting like most hiking carriers. Our baby has seemed really comfortable in it! What we don’t like is that the straps should be more padded, and that this carrier is really made for an average size man or tall women. It’s a bit big on me, and I’m 5’5’ ish. We would also like it if the child seating area was removable and washable. All in all this carrier is a good one!!

## Features

- PerfectFit Suspension for Customized Fit: Easily and quickly adjust the carrier for secure and comfortable fit for moms and dads without the need for attachments. Load lifters, waistbelt, sternum straps evenly distribute your kiddo’s weight
- 5 Point Safety Harness: Peace of mind safety harness system is easy to adjust ensuring your little one is snug and protected – aluminum roll cage frame for additional stability. Fold out aluminum kickstand makes unloading or reloading a breeze
- Cozy Ride for Junior: Internal seat mirrors a child’s natural rest state with a place for little feet to stretch, wide seat allows for big brother or sister to hitch hike when the whining becomes unbearable (1 rider at a time)
- Large Zippered Pocket for Goodies: What’s a toddler hike without snacks and toys? Large zippered compartment has plenty of room for food and drink essentials, with room leftover for hiking souvenirs (Mom I found a rock!)
- Elite: For the frequent little explorers, the Elite model has all the fixins – Zippered dirty compartment to keep the stank separate, side stretch mesh pockets, integrated sunshade, 2 hip belt pockets for mom’s phone, keys, and wallet

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comfortable and Light
*by S***R on October 8, 2020*

This is our first hiking backpack. Our kiddo does great in this pack and my wife and I (both taller than average) find it quite easy to customize the fit for comfort. Having done multiple hikes I can say it's a great pack to go with. Pros: Lightweight Hydration bladder pocket with "straw" guides Easy to custom fit Comfortable Extra storage Waist pockets Cons: Price? Just kidding, this is a great price for the features. Great pack, you won't be disappointed. Also, make sure to watch the Kelty videos for proper adjustment.
