Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Allows you to move freely
The waist and hip belts have pivots that flex as you move your body. This means you can move around freely without being restricted by the heavy, rigid baby carrier.
Pro Secures your baby
Your baby is secured with shoulder straps that click into a central buckle between his legs to create a secure five-point harness. There are also side panels that you can tighten in place, protecting your baby from any possible bumps and falls.
Pro Has a headrest for added safety and comfort
A high, padded headrest provides better neck support which allows your child to lay back, rest and even take a nap. It also protects your baby's head in case you fall backward.
Pro Large storage capacity
The Poco AG Plus has a very large storage capacity- 26 liters. The generously-sized main storage compartment is located under the cockpit and another storage similar to a backpack is located at the rear of the carrier. It has zipped belt pockets and mesh side pockets spread throughout the carrier, maximizing storage and accessibility.
Pro Geared for the great outdoors
It is equipped with an SPF50 sunshade that provides your child’s head and upper body excellent coverage from the elements. You can take this carrier out in any weather.
Pro Good levels of adjustability
The Poco AG Plus has a butterfly harness to keep your child extra safe. It can be adjusted for a snug and comfortable fit to keep the torso movement of your child to a minimum, helping you to maintain a more stable stride while still allowing your child to enjoy the ride and not feel trapped.
Pro You can carry it on the front or the back
Cons
Con Expensive
The Deuter KC III may be too expensive if you only plan on using it occasionally. It's still a great product if you hike a lot with your baby.
Con May not be comfortable for a tall child
Unlike the Deuter carriers, the backrest on this carrier only goes up to the neck of most children 2 years old and above. There's no place to rest their head on or a cushion to protect their heads from falls.
