BabyBjörn Baby Carrier Harmony
A soft, well-padded carrier from birth with mesh options; easy to put on, but no back carry listed.

We researched the Harmony as an alternative for parents who find buckle carriers with lots of straps confusing. It's usable from 3.2 kg without an insert, comes in a 3D mesh version for warm weather, and BabyBjörn says it's acknowledged as hip-healthy by the International Hip Dysplasia Institute. It's widely sold in Australia and appears on Babylist's list of structured carriers. Honestly, we found less independent testing for it than for our pick, it's rated to about three years rather than four, and we couldn't confirm a back carry — check that before buying if it matters to you.
