Till today (July 2008) the best model of BabyBjoern available.
However, there are still some things missing:
Variety of colors, better support for back.
In addition, not cheap...
Overall a good carrier July 4, 2008

After doing lots of research between this and the Ergo, I purchased this today to replace my original Bjorn. I decided on this because I like my other Baby Bjorn, as does my son, and didn't like that the Ergo required an infant insert (which seems hot for summer and a bit complicated to use) until the baby has good head support (3 to 4 months) and didn't allow baby to face out (something my daughter loved when she was still using the Bjorn).
Anyway, this afternoon I wore my 7 week old son for about an hour while doing errands in the house. Keeping in mind it is 97 degrees outside and we do not have air conditioning. He seemed very cool when in the carrier and also when I took him out. After being in the original Bjorn for that long, he is always sweaty and I have to change his clothes, poor guy!
I also felt it was comfortable for me as far as breathe-ability, but did start feeling a little "hot" in the lumbar area which doesn't breathe well.
As I stated before, I have the original baby bjorn and used it for my daughter but wanted this one because of the mesh material considering it's summer time (my daughter was a winter baby so the thicker material of the original carrier was just fine for her) and the lumbar support for me as my son is about 14 pounds and my back aches after having him in the original Bjorn for any length of time.
I did notice an improvement in my posture while wearing him and my back didn't hurt, but my shoulders still ached as they do when wearing him in the original bjorn.
I also don't like that there isn't as much head support as you get with the original Bjorn. The material is too soft around the head. Perhaps I just need to play with the straps a bit to get it right...I just felt he was a bit more "wobble" headed in this one than he is in the orignal Bjorn. He also doesn't sit as high...perhaps again another adjustment I need to make.
I wish it came in more colors; I have the white one and suspect it will need frequent washing! Also again, I wish the head support was a bit firmer.
Overall I'm not sure it's a great improvement over the original Bjorn and definitely not worth the $160 price tag - especially considering you can get the orignal for about $50 now and the others (air and active) for about $80! I'm still debating on whether I am going to take it back - not sure it's such a great improvement to justify the price tag.
But it's a good carrier, I do like it, thus the 4 stars, but again, not much of an improvement over the original Bjorn.
 Best invention for carrying baby! July 4, 2008
Wow, my baby rested her head on my chest within 5 minutes of having it on the very first time I tried my Synergy baby carrier. My daughter normally doesn't take to new things the very first time but she did with this carrier. Highly recommend to all new parents.
A must-have (if you have the money, or if you're traveling) June 22, 2008
Lumber support is awesome. Without that, the carrier would only be half as comfortable. So far, using in Texas heat, so the mesh fabric, another great feature. My baby is just at the margin (8lbs and 21") of recommended baby "size", and at the moment I do worry a little if her head is comfortable-- posture wise, and having enough breathing room. If I let her face, face my chest, it seems more comfortable a posture BUT she might not have enough breathing room. If I let her face look sideways so that her one cheek rests against my chest, then she'll have plenty of room around her nose, BUT this posture is not comfortable for more than a couple minutes. I do think that once she grows a little taller, I won't have this predicament. This carrier still is great though.
Great Product June 18, 2008
we love it! the baby loves it! he can look forward and we can turn him around when he falls asleep. we bought first Ergo but it's good for tiny newborns and bigger kids that can spread their legs to the sides...so we went back to the well known Babybjorn. We had one years ago and the new one with the back support and airy material is recommended!
