Saves the back and helps baby walk better on her own
No more bending over to hold your baby. This helps save your back. Especially good for grandma so she doesnt have to bend over and dad who is tall. And helps baby learn how to better balance using her arms without you grabbing her under the armpits. Baby has freedom to move and run around and you have peace of mind holding baby safely. If your baby is like mine and is running before learning to walk, this is a good thing to have onhand. It probably isn’t something you’ll use for a long time because once your baby learns how to balance on her own, you probably won’t need this anymore but it will come in handy for a month or two when your baby starts teetering and tottering about. Wish it weren’t so pricey though. That’s why I didn’t give this 5 stars.
Saves the Back
I like this item for assisting little ones in learning to walk, but it must be used regularly to achieve the best results. Little ones should have accomplished their sense of balance before seriously using this for a true walking experience.
Love it
It is perfect because it provides good support for their little bodies so it makes it safer for them to use it.It also doesn’t cut underarms circulations and doesn’t make their hands go up all the time as the ones without the bottom part(like the walking wings that I previously tried as well).It lets them do the work when walking, helping with finding the balance. A physiotherapist told me that we do most of the work for them when their little hands are raised above the head(like the most common thing that happens when we held the little ones’s hands when they are trying to walk :-)).I like the fact that it has Velcro on the back so if you have a very tiny baby you can still use it as it can adjust very small(my little one is weighting only 7.5kg at 1 year old).Easy to use and wash.Definitely prefer this over the Walking wings.
Daughter couldn’t stand being in harness
Our daughter did not like being in the harness. She would just fight it so we just bought her theHape Wonder Walkerand feel this was more of a developmental tool to aid in her learning how to walk. Plus the walker is really a work of art in our eyes. It is simple and beautifully crafted at the same time. It is very stable and my daughter enjoys pushing it around along with all of her toys.
Great carrier/walker!
So easy to put on baby and he loves it!At first, he thought it was a jumper, but caught on!
Wasn’t comfy
I think my girl felt very constrained in this, and she did overheat a lot, so it was a relief when it was taken off. Opt for a belt/walker that just straps them around the chest and arms.
Non-starter for our 1-year-old
Maybe we started her on this too late. She as already walking on her own at 12 months and we just wanted an easier way to hold on to her. But she HATED it. Tried it twice and had to return it. The quality was nice…. I think it was just our kid that didn’t like it at all.
Fun!
Ordered this because my DD likes to lock her legs and stand at 5mo. It is a little big (since it is made for older babies) but we still play in it some times. She loves it.
Leans the baby forward to walk
I love the concept of this but to keep the straps out of the baby’s way they are too far back so it pitches the baby forward which partially defeats the purpose of it. I do like being able to straighten my back for a few minutes while the baby walks… But I wish the walking was more natural/upright vs leaning forward.Separately, this is pretty easy to get the baby in/out of if they are laying down (ideally on their belly). It also has detachable straps if you wanted to keep your baby in the body harnesses while crawling (although why you would do that I have no idea since it is pretty bulky for crawlers).
OK product
The design is good, but for some reason my baby hates it and we do not use it a lot and now my baby can walk by himself pretty well.
