Pros: light and cheap
Cons: uncomfortable after prolonged use (more than 2 hours)
Summary: This backpack is lightweight and easy to use. The kick stand makes it easy to get on and off with baby in it single handedly. The attached bag is impossible to reach when the pack is on. There's a toy strap that seems superfluous, but becomes ... read more

Pros: Easily adjustable, lightweight
Cons: none
Summary: The main reason I was in the market for a carrier was so I would be able to do laundry in the basement of our apartment building during the day while my husband worked, instead of waiting so he could watch our son. I have had the Hiker Backpack for only ... read more

Pros: Compact, comfortable, easy to use, very efficient and effective. Great low price!

Summary: Add this to your "must have" list, it is wonderful! After looking at the different types of backpacks around, and pricing them, this backpack is the one to buy!
This backpack may not be the most expensive model available, it may ... read more

Pros: Sturdy frame, easy in & out, secures child well, child can see out clearly
Cons: Make sure you secure the straps well and avoid quick bends
Summary: This is one of those things you say you don't need. Then when you have one, you sigh, and say "WHY didn't I get this earlier???". A fantastic backpack, the Evenflo Hiker model is on the high-end for safety, child comfort, and parenting ... read more

Pros: mobility, stores easily, durable
Cons: watch out for low overhangs and sunburn
Summary: Little did I know, in my pre-child life, that "I need some freedom!" would one day translate to "Buy me a baby backpack!".
When my third child came along, my second was still too young to be dependably cooperative. The day ... read more

Pros: light, easy to get on and off, like a portable high chair
Cons: my son ALWAYS pulled my scalp and hair and kicked me
Summary: Not because it's so great, because my son kept pulling my hair when I put him in it - not to mention all kicking my back and sides.
We got one of these because my first son was a big boy - 9 pounds at birth, 20 pounds by less than 6 months. ... read more

Pros: Lightweight and Balanced
Cons: Minimal Storage
Summary: If price is an issue, the Evenflo Hiker can't be beaten. There are lots of packs out there at twice the price with the same features, but why spend it if you don't have to? If you haven't used a pack like this and are thinking about it, go for it! It ... read more

Cons: Kills your shoulders if you wear it for more than an hour.
Summary: I purchased the Hiker because my husband and I and our son (8 months old at the time) were going on a hike. I also wanted the ability to put my son in something and have my hands free to work.
I love the fact that the baby is strapped in ... read more

Pros: ease of use, lightweight, comfortable, inexpensive
Cons: none
Summary: My daughter loves to be held, there are no two ways about it. If she is fussy at all there is just no putting her on the floor to play. I obviously still have housework and various tasks to do and the Evenflo Hiker has been my savior!
