COMFORTABLE Pack!

Date of Review:  Nov 20, 2000
Review: The Kelty K.I.D.S. Kangaroo pack is WONDERFUL! The pack is truly comfortable to wear for long periods of time and my son loves it. He is thrilled to be carried all over and does not fuss while in it. He is even comfortable enough to fall asleep.

Horrible ergonomics & worthless adjustments!

Date of Review:  Aug 22, 2004
The Bottom Line: Save your money and buy a Baby Bjorn! This Kelty may look more robust, but it can't hold a candle to the Bjorn in terms of ergonomics.
Review: Even though it cost less than a Baby Bjorn, this carrier was the biggest waste of money we encountered as new parents!

Forget all of the features Kelty is touting. The people that designed this obviously never actually tried carrying a...

Good enough for a real hike

Date of Review:  Jul 17, 2000
The Bottom Line: The best infant front-pack I have seen or used.
Review: Our Kangaroo Pack made the difference between a good summer and frustration last year. When our first baby was born, we had a hand-me-down front pack (manufacturer's name mercifully lost in oblivion) which was absolute torture to wear for more than...

The best for my baby!

Date of Review:  Jan 8, 2002
The Bottom Line: I would definitely buy this product again. It is comfortable for parent and baby and withstands a lot of use and abuse.
Review: I bought this carrier after my baby started to get wiggly in the NoJo Sling.

I did try some cheaper carriers, and being a large person they all seemed to tight and they dug into my shoulders.

This carrier distributes the weight...

godsend!!

Date of Review:  Nov 15, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you're frustrated about poor fitting frame carriers, get this one! Short folks, rejoice!
Review: I am in love with this carrier! I'll start with a little backstory (pun fully intended): I feel very strongly that babies should be carried as much as possible. And I have a rather nasty hip injury from a car accident. Enter (finally!) the Base...

Let's Go

Date of Review:  Oct 18, 2001
The Bottom Line: For everyone who loves to take care infants and go for walks, get it and find out how easy it is to use for yourself.
Review: This is too cool. I used this for both of my kids ( they are a bit older now...but I did use one )
I prefer this brand over the others for many reasons and the first being comfort. I found that this is much more comfortable than the other name...

Kelty Kangaroo - So liberating!

Date of Review:  Nov 7, 2000
Review: I purchased the Kelty Kangaroo carrier when Ewan was born. He was only 6lbs 4 oz, so we waited til he was a few weeks old and 2 pounds heavier.

This is the best baby purchase we have made. I personally HATE strollers as they are so hard to...

Good for larger babies

Date of Review:  Sep 11, 2000
Review: We purchased a second hand Kelty Kangaroo from eBay after our baby got too heavy for the Baby Bjorn. The trouble we were having was a lot of shoulder strain from his nearly 20 pounds basically hanging off our shoulders. The Kelty Kangaroo has a...

Date of Review:  Feb 20, 2005
Review: Purchased online because of the Kelty name. Have had a Kelty backpack for 20 years now so felt this would be a safe bet.

Basic and HUGE problem: The waistbelt attaches to the frame via a strange all-in-one-connected arrangement; first...
