Best purchase all year
By S. Thompson
I purchased this pack online after researching many brands. The price ultimately sold me on this particular back pack and I am SO glad I went with this one! I was kinda expecting a pack that looked "cheaper" than the others because it was so much less. (The other one I was debating upon was $170) Also, the previous reviews made me nervous about how it would fit but they either had big problems figuring out the straps or just never wore a back pack before because I had NO problem with this. I am over 6 feet tall and on the large size for a woman so I usually have issues with things fitting my body size. I have a long torso and this pack actually fits me the way it is supposed to! I also have a chest larger than Pamela Anderson's and I have no problem buckling the chest strap :o) I don't know why the other person had such a problem because I still have room to tighten it as it doesn't even go over my chest but above it. So not only does it fit great but it looks fabulous and really well made! Also, the stand is very easy to collapse and extend. There is no button to push; it simply pushes in or pulls out and is held by tension in the stand arm. My son is 9 months, 25 lbs and about 28 inches tall and he fits great. The first day I had it I took it out on a 2 mile hike and had NO soreness or awkward feelings in my step. I am just so in love with this pack! AND the wind shield is GREAT and not included on many models that are $100 more than this Chicco! The only thing that is lame is the bag on the back of the pack. It's unsafe since anyone could unzip it if you are walking in a crowd and steal your stuff. Not to mention that you can't reach it without taking the pack off but you DO have the option of wearing it as a fanny pack so that's good AND you could use it to store the wind visor thingy when you don't need it. It's really a non-issue but I felt I should include just one con :o) Buy this pack! You won't regret it!!!

I'm 4'11" and it fits me just fine
By Alina
I have been wanting a backpack carrier for some time - one with a metal stand so it would be easier to get my son in and out of. I finally broke down and bought a new one after not being able to find a used one. I purchased this one because it seemed to be reasonably priced and it got good reviews. I was a little nervous about it since some of the people that were petite said that it didn't fit them and that it was too big. I'm 4'11" and it fits me just fine so I am not sure what they are talking about. I also didn't have any problems with it being too tight in the chest area too and I would say I'm a pretty average size. Some of the reviews said that they need someone else to help them with the metal stand - I have not experienced that either. My son is almost 17 months old and he is about 25 pounds and I can take him off of my back and open up the stand by myself. It takes a bit of practice and some upper body strength but after carrying around a child in my arms for over 16 months I would say that I've built up my strength to handle an extra 5 or 6 pounds that comes from the carrier. Right now I'm just starting off on short walks around the neighborhood - it does take a while to build up your muscles but it is comfortable and works great for me. I love that it comes with the sun shade and the pockets that attach to it as well. Overall I'm happy with my purchase and can't wait to hit the trails and lose this baby weight!

Chicco Smart - Baby Carrier Backpack
By Jaime
Great product for its price.After reading so many negative reviews regarding the fit and feel of this product I was extremely hesitant to order it. But then I realized that 90% of the U.S. is a bit out of shape and that these products are tailored to the average somehow healthy/fit body (plus/minus a couple of sizes).So I order it and got it a few days ago.Bottom line: It is the family's new toy. Keep in mind that I have a 15 & 13 year old kids and between them, my wife and I, we love carrying our 1yr old baby princess.Keep in mind that I'm 6ft, 200lbs, semi-athletic figure, and have experience with the old style baby carrier from the 1990's (I'm also in the military). In comparison this Chicco is a Cadilac. Perfect fit for the parent and so far, no complaints from the baby; she actually enjoys it more than her walker. My spouse is 5ft, low 100 lbs., son is 5'10", 150lbs, daughter 5ft, 100lbs., and they all enjoy it.For those of you who have not experienced carrying a baby in a backpack style carrier, remember, you are carrying 20-40lbs on your back. After a few hours, this weight is a bit challenging even for a seasoned soldier. So I suggest taking breaks and/or turns with other family members.
