You dont have to get THAT brand, but mei tai's are all almost exactly the same.

I LOVE my mei tai by CuppiecakeCarrier (on DS & CDN and on HC, I believe). She has great customer service, a wide variety of fabrics and reasonable prices. The straps on her MTs are the most comfortable of the ones I've tried.

Are you on TBW at all? I see them on FSOT all the time for $50+

I find all MT's are made roughly the same, but have vastly different uses. So it kind of depends on what you want to use it for.

My favorite MT's have been my Active Mom Carrier for when DS was littler, but big enough to be put on my back. So cushy and comfy!

I also have one made from a woven wrap that is just heavenly for front carries on any size of baby.

Now I have a Bamberoo MT that will enable DH and I to carry our toddler until he's probably 3! It's rock solid and super comfy.

Its fun to get new carriers! I can't wait to see what you get!

I would love to make you a kangapack :) GCM'ers get $10 off too :kiss

I really think you just need to figure out what type of carrier you're looking for and how you're wanting to use it.

Personally if I were to only be allowed one carrier, I'd want a SSC as well. :yes
