I had three carriers but the artipoppe one I got gifted was the single best thing we got! My best friend splurged on it for me but honestly, I would've bought it myself if no one else did. I still use it and baby is 13 months old.
'Single best thing we got' out of three carriers; would have bought it themselves; still using at 13 months; enthusiastic superlative
I really really love my artipoppe. It's a large price point but I totally think it's worth it. I've used it for 2 babies and I have no complaints. I bought the Mabè at a backup and I have to say I love it as well. It has a little more fabric than the artipoppe and is a way more affordable option. I leave one in my car and one at home so that I always have the option to wear my now 7 month old
'Really really love', used for 2 babies, 'no complaints', worth the large price point; keeps it accessible (one in car, one at home)
I liked the solly wrap when younger. Went to mabe and then splurged and bought Artipoppe and sold the mabe pretty quickly afterwards
Upgraded from Mabe to Artipoppe and sold Mabe 'pretty quickly' — demonstrates clear superiority over alternative; willing to splurge
I have tried 3, my baby likes my artipoppe carrier the best
Baby prefers it over 2 other carriers tried; specific preference outcome with comparative context
I think it really depends on personal comfort, and body type, etc. Little Zen one has a try before you buy program, which can be really helpful. You can try a bunch of options and see what fits you best and what is most comfortable for baby. I love my Hope & Plum Lark, and got an artipoppe Zeitgeist with my first daughter, and it has lasted a long time and served me well through two kids, although people have strong opinions about it. People seem to love the happy baby OG, Lenny Lamb, and Tula.
'Lasted a long time and served me well through two kids'; acknowledges controversial reputation ('people have strong opinions') but personal experience is clearly positive
I was gifted an artipoppe and it is my favorite thing ever. However it ripped and I had to replace with a mabe will it got repaired. I grew to really love the mabe! I'm not sure why I haven't seen it on here yet.. it seems a lot more supportive than the lark IMO. But if it's in budget I would go for the artipoppe lol
'Favorite thing ever' but it ripped requiring repair — strong positive sentiment tempered by durability concern; still recommends if in budget
