BABYBJÖRN Comfort Carrier, Anthracite Review
I also own the Original Baby Bjorn, which is great, so I was very excited to give the Comfort Carrier a try. I have to say that I absolutely love it. The color is great. The material is nice and doesn't smell chemical-y, even right out of the box. As with the Original, I love that each strap stays in place and feels very secure. (I never worry about my baby being unsafe when he is strapped into a Baby Bjorn carrier.) I found the Comfort Carrier to be even easier to set-up, lock into place, and adjust than the Original.
It did take me a second to remember that the bottom, padded strap sits right above your hips, not by your waist. At first I worried that this strap would feel awkward and cumbersome, but it is actually very comfortable and, I believe, a great improvement on the Original. With the Original, I noticed that I started getting a sore back and sore shoulders when my son reached about 14 lbs. Nothing unbearable, but it wasn't pleasant. (I am 5'6" and pretty fit for having given birth a few months ago, so I don't think the soreness happened because I am completely out of shape--or at least that's what I tell myself.) With the Comfort Carrier, though, I don't feel any soreness when I walk around with my son. The extra padding on the shoulder straps helps, too.
The big question is, is the Comfort Carrier worth the price? From my experience, I think that the Comfort Carrier sets itself apart from the Original because it is more supportive and comfortable. Since I use a carrier ALL the time, that is an important feature for me, and the extra cost is worth it.

Carrying your baby should be an enjoyable experience, whether you're taking the little one on errands, walks, or anywhere else. Thankfully, the Comfort Carrier's innovative design helps make carrying your baby pleasant and comfortable. Its adjustable waist belt transfers baby's weight to your hips to free your movement and lighten your load. The padded, adjustable shoulder straps can be worn as loose or tight as is comfortable for you, and adjust to fit the Comfort Carrier specifically to baby's size.
This carrier is especially convenient for comfortably toting bigger and older children over longer periods of time.
Flexible Carrying Positions for Child's Comfort
As with all BABYBJÖRN Baby Carriers, the Comfort Carrier lets you carry your child facing forwards or towards you, but also offers two different leg positions. Your baby can be carried facing inwards or outwards with the "normal" BABYBJÖRN leg position.
For those older children who still enjoy being carried close to mom or dad, the new "wide" leg position faces larger children (up to 31 pounds) inward for more comfortable carrying. When baby is facing in, the head support can be left up or folded down. When baby is facing out, the head support should be folded down.
Made of Organic Cotton and Non-toxic Materials
Made from certified organically grown cotton fabric, the Comfort Carrier helps you preserve the earth for future generations. The Comfort Carrier fabric is made from 100% organically grown cotton and meets the GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard), the most recognized international organic standard.
In addition, all fabrics and materials used in BABYBJÖRN Baby Carriers that come into contact with baby's skin are Öeko-Tex Standard 100 Class 1 certified, an international safety standard for textiles, and contain no health-hazardous substances. This means that during your baby's teething phase, you can allow your baby to nibble or suck on the fabric without worry.

Customer Reviews
BABYBJORN Makes a Quality Product - Chris - Montana
I've always been impressed with the BABYBJORN products. This baby carrier is top quality and very well-made. It is not flimsy, but sturdy. The straps and buckles are very "beefy." I would recommend their products anyway but having seen and and tried this one--it is really fantastic. A parent doesn't need to worry about the baby being safe in this product. I highly recommend this baby carrier.
