All in all the Beco 8 is a great choice for anyone looking for a long lasting, multipositioned carrier. It similar too the Ergobaby Omni Breeze and Tula Explore but offers a different fit and feel to these, and is significantly cheaper so worth exploring along side these options or as a cheaper alternative. Or if you are looking for a lighter weight, more streamlined carrier, check out the Beco 8's little brother the Beco Gemini and see my video comparision of the Beco 8 and the Beco Gemini here.
