Expensive, but worth the investment!

The Bottom Line: Once you figure out how to tie it, it becomes an essential!
My husband and I researched a lot of wraps before buying ours. When it came we were more than confused with how to wear such a long, massive piece of cloth.
However, after being shown how to use it one time, I've been able to master it on my own ever since. This wrap is wonderful, and I can wear it around the house while doing chores, and even gardening!
My daughter fusses, I put her in the wrap and she falls asleep for me within 5 minutes of putting her in our EllaRoo. It's so comfortable, and I can tell that she is happy and content.
The EllaRoos are hand woven in Guatemala with non-toxic dies - which I liked a lot, and also influenced my buying it.
It's best to buy a larger size, rather than a smaller one. The larger ones can be more intimidating because there's more fabric, but you also then have more wearing options. Where as if you bought a small - you'd only be able to wrap if a few different ways.
They can be pricey, but the fact that you can carry a two year old in the same wrap that you carry your newborn, makes this a well-worth investment.
