This wrap was more than what I expected. I absolutely love it. I’m plus size and worried it wouldn’t fit around but it did perfectly. My baby boy is so cozy in it and falls asleep. Even when he’s cranky I put him in it and walk around the house it soothes him. I can now wash dishes and vacuum and still give him the extra loves and cuddles he needs and I want!

Third Boba purchase. Love it. This is the 3rd Boba I’ve bought because they’re just THAT wonderful. It took me about 20 times of watching the YouTube video of how to wrap correctly before I felt like I had baby secure enough but once I learned it I have used it almost everyday. Even in Texas summer, I just put any in a cotton tank onesie or diaper only. It’s even better when it’s raining out, I can finally fit under a regular sized umbrella again while wearing lol I love that I can toss it in the washer and I may have dried it in the dryer a few times by accident…..and it came out just fine(I’m not saying you SHOULD, just saying in mommie stupor it’s okay if one does ;).)
I love this product and I love it’s convenience!

Soooo glad I got this. This is sooo easy to master and so much more comfortable and more secure than the Infantino Carrier that costs more! i got this wrap just to try-i honestly didn?t think i?d be able to figure it out so fast but after watching a few Youtube videos, i had it down perfectly????. there are no big hard plastic buckles, thick ugly nylon or snaps to try to work with-just one long piece of fabric, which is sooo soft and stretchy! and i didn?t think getting it on too tight would be possible but the first time i put it on and put my 13week old son it it, it WAS too tight!!??so retied it a little looser and perfect??my little guy nestles in there so snug and secure! i know this will be a great investment-my son is 11lbs and this wrap will safely carry toddlers up to 35lbs! i?m so glad i got it! well worth the money

Hands down the best baby wearing wrap out there! This was actually my second purchase! I had one before, but didn’t find myself using it a ton. I found myself using my lillebaby carrier more. So I gave my original wrap to one of my good friends who had just had her third baby, and was having a tough time trying to figure out how to juggle daily tasks and new baby. It completely changed her life, and her husband loves to wear it as well! I then had a trip that I was going to be going on, that I thought I would be nice to have a wrap in conjunction with having my lillebaby carrier. I wasn’t sure if I should spend the money for another Boba, so I try to knock off brand. I regretted it instantly as I put the other wrap on. It was way too tight, and had no give to the fabric at all. I’m used to tying tight with the Boba wrap, so I had to completely undo the tie and do it again a little looser, which was just a huge pain in the middle of our event we were attending. I was really bummed, but knew immediately how worth it it was to have a Boba. That night I ordered my new wrap without hesitation. I told my friend that a Boba is gold to have, and I wanted her to keep mine. They are so worth their weight in gold, that I had bought myself another one.

Compared to two other wraps I chose this one. I am a petite mom (4?11 102lbs) so I ordered this wrap and two other wraps (the baby wrap ergo and Keababies wrap- you can find both on Amazon) I wanted to measure them all and see which one would be the shortest so that it wouldn?t be too long.
I got to say all other wraps I mentioned were all great but they weren?t as stretchy as this one. So depending on what you?re looking for each one has its perks.
The Keababies was definitely the shortest out of all of them and there wasn?t so much fabric, it was also a cool fabric so baby wouldn?t get too hot. The fabric wasn?t very stretchy.
The ergo baby wrap was the same length as the Boba wrap it has less fabric on the width though and it is also not as stretchy as the boba, the fabric is also cotton and therefore pretty cool.
Overall the reason why I kept the Boba wrap was because of its stretchy material. My baby didn?t like the other wraps because she felt a little tight in them but she loves this wrap. As for the length it doesn?t seem long at all once you wrap it around you.

Safer than a ring sling, simpler than a structured carrier. I love this thing. At three months, my daughter prefers it to her Omni 360, which is structured almost like a backpack. While I think this will be useful when she’s older, at this age a canvas carrier is overkill. With so many adjustments to be made it’s a faff to get on and off without help, and my baby often winds up screaming by the end of it. Plus, the thick shoulder straps obscure her view as they don’t really sit flat. The wrap, by contrast, is a breeze to use, and since you can do as you like with the fabric, you can adjust it for any kind of view you like.
I’ve also tried a ring sling, and I can’t get on with those at all. They feel unsafe. A ring sling creates a little pouch for your baby’s bum to sit in, and it’s very easy to wriggle out of it. With this Baba wrap, sections of cloth actually pass between your baby’s legs for support, so it feels very secure.
It’s a pretty simply matter to get a baby into this, and super easy to get one out of it (just lift until legs are clear). If you’re at work or trying to get stuff done around the house or even out and about (in decent weather; I wouldn’t wear it over a coat), you can even leave this thing wrapped around you when the baby’s not in it, so you don’t have to keep putting it on and taking it off. The instructions are easy to follow so you don’t have to be Earth Mother No. 1 to grasp it. After a few tries, you don’t need them anymore.
This wrap is super long, so you have to put it on someplace where there is a clean floor, or where you can drape the ends over a piece of furniture. I’m a pretty small person so I just do one extra wrap around my waist toward the end to take up the slack. The color on this one is really more of a taupe than a true grey, but if you like neutrals, this will do. I’m definitely ordering another one to keep at the office. Worth every penny.

I really like the Boba wrap. I really like the Boba wrap. Everytime my baby is in the wrap she falls asleep. I am a first time wrapper and I only watched one YouTube video and learned how to wrap it. This wrap is a bit warm and will sometimes cause my baby to sweat but right now it is still cool where I live. Once it warms up I will probably have to get a thinner wrap.
I’ve also noticed when I where it for an extended period of time my back starts to hurt, but that is to be expected if you are carrying a whole extra person around for hours with just the support of fabric. Overall a good product
Francesca via Amazon.com –
Easy and comfortable and baby loved! I am not at all the type of mom who knows about specific wraps or is super into “baby wearing”, I was simply a first time mom who thought the baby bjorn looked a little uncomfortable. So, I bought this, watched a Youtube tutorial about how to wrap it (VERY helpful!) and my baby girl loved it! Once in a while she would cry for no reason and once I put her in here she would fall right asleep. My daughter is 6.5 months old now and does not enjoy it even with her legs free (there is a different way to place older babies) and I really miss the days of her snuggled tight to me! Very easy and very useful. I machine washed and dried it several times with no issue! Also I am plus sized!
Hetzie21 via Amazon.com –
So happy I gave baby wearing another try with this Boba. I was struggling to find a comfortable wrap for a plus size mom. I’m a dress size 18, and bra size 44D. The last wrap I bought squished my baby into my boobs. This wrap is comfortable for myself and my baby. She is currently 11 pounds and fits fine. Would recommend to anyone.
Jesse via Amazon.com –
This product is wonderful! There is a bit of a learning curve with this. Once you get the hang of getting it wrapped snugly and tucking a baby in by yourself, this thing rocks! We have twins and we can fit both at the same time. If you can get the wrap tight enough, this will securely hold your precious cargo. Another great thing, this wrap is big. If you’ve got a few extra pound, like myself, fear not. It will fit. Again, I’m on the heavy side and can pack twins in here.

Babywearing is truly magical. I’m a grandma who does lots of babysitting and I love babywearing, and the Boba wrap. My only complain is that it gets hot indoors but it is perfect for winter walks. We just got the Mumma wrap, pretty much the same but lighter, so we are set for summer times. Babywearing is truly magical, it is a lovely way to snuggle for hours.

Love our boba wrap. My 2 month old loves this wrap and I take him everywhere in it; the grocery store, baseball games, around the house, etc. It’s helped so much during his fussy times, we cannot live without it.
Corinn Fin via Amazon.com –
Love this carrier!! I?ve been baby wearing my daughter in this thing since she was born. It?s so cozy and all the different wraps you can do make it extremely versatile too! It?s stretchy so it?s not constricting but it does get warm pretty fast so if you?re have a baby around summer I would get something that breathes better. My babe was borin in October so this worked out for me but even then I worried about her overheating. Other than that, this was such a necessity! Couldn?t get through those first few weeks without it. Or go to the store by myself without it!
Also just a tip: tie it tighter than you think you?ll need it because it stretches and it will loosen because of this and the baby?s weight.

This wrap is a life saver! I bought this sling for my infant son (weighs 7 lbs, was 5 lbs when I first used the sling). At first I got frustrated with how to wrap the sling because I struggled with the instructional videos. After some persistence I finally figured it out and I’m glad I stuck with it! Once my little guy is snugly wrapped, I can run errands, cook meals, and most importantly, use both my hands!! If baby gets hungry I can simply remove the shoulder straps, cover him with the cloth that goes over my torso, and let him feed. He falls right asleep listening to my heartbeat every time.
I ordered the black one which I regret because it’s harder to tell if the sling is inside out or not. No problems washing it. Also, the cloth rolls up really easily so it helps to wear light layers underneath so you don’t feel too bunched up. Lastly, it helps to have the little one fed before attempting to wrap him or you will feel his wrath!

Easy to use and comfortable for the both of us. We love this wrap! I was hesitant about learning how to wrap my baby but after watching the Boba Youtube tutorials a few times, I was able to get the hang of it pretty quickly.
I originally wanted a structured, more expensive carrier. However, given that I had a premature baby, I quickly did some searching around and came across the Boba. I really wanted the closeness of having my baby on my body as much as possible. He came home weighing 4 lbs and we were able to use it right away. I also love that I can do other things (like eat and drink) while having him attached. This has been so perfect for my preemie baby. He falls asleep almost instantly when he’s in it. Two and a half months later, weighing 8lbs, he prefers the Boba to the Lillebaby All Seasons carrier we have. It is just so much easier to wrap and travel with than the structured carrier! The fabric is amazingly soft and stretchy This is my favorite baby accessory so far! I highly recommend it for moms who want their baby close and their hands free!

After much research, the Boba made most sense for our needs. Finding the right wrap was overwhelming for me. There are pros and cons to the various styles. Ultimately, I chose the Boba. Things taken into consideration:
Pros: It is compatible with any sized adult, unlike the K’Tan, which is sized for the specific adult wearer’s body, and we didn’t want to purchase more than one for each carrier or parent. The Boba also continues to fit the baby as he or she grows, not so for wraps that are fitted for a specific sized or aged baby. For example, the baby would outgrow the K’Tan pretty quickly and it’s not as stretchy as the Boba. Lastly, I preferred a one-piece, as opposed to the K’Tan, which comes in 2 pieces.
Cons: It’s a really long piece if fabric so it is not the easiest to carry out and wrap in public, but not a problem if you have the baby wrapped before leaving the house. But, this was the only con for my personal needs, so it won out over the other wrap brands out there.
Be sure to watch the instructional videos available, it’s a huge help. After practicing once or twice, you get faster and faster at it. My baby girl loves it and passes out in it for hours.

I love this wrap! Grows with your changing body and keeps baby secure! I’ve tried a few wraps out there – but this one – this is the real thing! Many other wraps require you buy a certain size (S, M, L, etc) – this isn’t helpful as your body grows or slims with pregnancy. This wrap is extremely versatile, as it moves and grows with you. I’ve fluxed approximately 60lbs and can still wear this sling snug and tight throughout my body’s changes. Also, the product itself is very well made – the fabric is high quality and there’s plenty of it to securely swaddle both you and your child, together.
I will most definitely be purchasing a second one in the near future! Bonus: so many great color options!

Comfortable for me and my back. A friend suggested this to me and I?m so thankful she did! It wasn?t hard to learn how to wrap, watched a few YouTube videos prior. Comfortable for me and my back, baby looks comfortable. Great for newborns. As they get older, you can do front facing as well. I?ve even see a few videos that show you how to breastfeed with it on. I tried it once but my son is still too young and small. Didn?t feel comfortable. Maybe I?ll try again when he?s a little bigger and older. This was a lifesaver during his first month. I was able to do house chores while he slept in it, I?d relax on the couch with him in it, etc. Cons: because of the length, if you want to go out with it, you need to put it on prior to getting in the car. I don?t recommend trying to put it on while your out in the parking lot. It also seems warm inside so I don?t put tons of layers on my son before putting him in. Even just a onesie is enough. Also, it?s not comfortable for me to wear it with loose clothing. I find wearing a fitted shirt makes it easier to put on.

Versatile carrier! Love this addition for holding my wee one. It?s such a comfortable way to carry her around and still have my hands free. I am surprised how much I like it and that it took my third child to be brave enough to try it. I solely used a more rigid option but wanted to try a wrap out. My baby loves it! It certainly has a lot of stretch and can be used on many sizes and body shapes for all adult family members to have a carrying option. As some carriers can be pretty pricey this one is probably your best bargain! Watch you tube or go to boba site to get your wrapping technique right!

A must have for newborns!!This has been a lifesaver!! Absolutely one of my most used newborn items. My LO is currently 7 weeks and we had to learn the hard lesson (like many new parents) that a lot of his fussiness was due to being overtired. We were quick to blame gas, my diet, reflux etc. but the reality is that he wasn?t taking long enough naps (40 ish minutes in his baby swing ) and was chronically sleep deprived. However we have discovered that he will take epic naps in this wrap. 2-3 hours! Our new protocol is to put him in this for multiple long naps per day. We now have a MUCH less fussy baby. There are lots of YouTube videos to figure out how to wrap. I prefer this stretchy material to the woven non-stretch wraps. I also find this easier to use and more comfortable than a ring sling. This is more forgiving and adjusts to the baby when you put him in. Just tie it nice and snug and it will work fine. He sometimes cries when I first put him in but I bounce and walk around for a while and eventually he crashes and sleeps like a log. My hands are free to fold laundry, walk the dog etc. I think eventually we will graduate to a baby bjorn (it?s faster and easier to take on and off) but he doesn?t like that style carrier yet. This wrap is a must have.
Emma H via Amazon.com –
So I was soo excited to get this! My baby is 4 months and is in 6-9 month clothing. She seems a little big. I got this because I wear the carrier with her at the store and she always falls asleep with her face on the buckles. So I thought this would be perfect. She leans back in it no matter how tight I make it! Like just looking around. So idk how much I will use it… and I had to get the pink because I have a girl but it was more ran then it was pink. Disappointed 🙁 but still 5 stars because it?s stretchy and good quality. Just not for me but I would recommend to others!
Rose W. via Amazon.com –
Love this wrap! I?m only on day 3 of using it and I love this wrap! I have a 6 week old baby girl and she?s very much attached to momma but I couldn?t hold her and do all the things I needed to do around the house and even for myself. I was intimidated by the prices of other wraps but glad I found this one at a MUCH cheaper price. Baby girl is comfy in it and it was SO easy to wrap and place her in it. She falls asleep in it mostly since I?m usually walking around the house with her.
I will add, for moms who have babies that struggle with acid reflux like mine, this helps a lot in that area too. We?ve put her on Zantac, changed her formula, and that was already helping but putting her in the wrap after she?s fed and burped helps to keep her upright for a while so that when I do place her down for a nap, she won?t be fussy or spit up so much!
Kaykay Holland via Amazon.com –
I absolutely love this wrap, and that’s why I give it 5 stars! But I will say, I wouldn’t recommend for uses such as carrying your baby while shopping, running errands, etc. It takes a bit to put on and you need to have plenty of space around you to put on. I use it while I’m doing work around the house like folding clothes, washing dishes, etc and my baby stays asleep in it the whole time. It’s just aggravating to take on and off when I’m running in the grocery store or something like that so I just use the regular one with the buckles. I will say it’s super comfortable to wear, breathable for my baby, and easily adjustable if I need to move her around or adjust her.
Christine Staats via Amazon.com –
This thing is amazing! It took a little trial and error the first couple times my husband and I used it, he always does it too tight or too loose(not losing any stars for that he always makes things difficult!). Once I got it figured out it only takes a minute or so to get it set. Much better and more comfortable than the moby i bought. Some complain about having to put it on or how long it is etc, it is worth all of that. I would much rather have to redo it everything in this easy way as opposed to the way I have to do the Moby, also it is super comfortable on my back, hips, etc unlike others that say the weight is distributed but ends up on my upper back anyways. And the length means it will fit pretty much anyone and all size babies and still be comfortable.
Barton D. via Amazon.com –
BEST wrap I?ve tried!! Waaay more comfortable!! Waay more breathable even the black color one in hot weather compared to Moby but isnt flimsy like Milksnob.
I feel more secure being able to wrap it around my waist to where it ties in front instead of back! This makes it more secure if I need to adjust after its on, allows baby a second ?seatbelt?, and is more comfortable when sitting if I lean back.
I also like that the fabric feels slightly different on each side (not a bad thing) so I know which side is which wirhout looking, this makes it easier to use.
I was even able to figure out how to wrap baby securely after baby fell asleep on my shoulder using this.
Now that I?m getting used to it i find it easier than a ring sling in certain circumstances.
I cannot say it enough, I LOVE this baby wrap sling!!
MommaBear via Amazon.com –
Adjustable and comfortable. Like it a lot; wish it came with a carrying case/bag. Have a relatively small NICU baby who likes and needs to be close, so it is a lifesaver when helping older kiddos. Legs in was very difficult and never could quite get comfortable getting her in that way. Was grateful when baby was ready to go legs out; much easier to achieve and she seems happy. For now it?s comfortable and not hard on the back, but our little is still fairly light. Also, for large chested ladies, this works! 34ddd when not nursing and quite a lot larger with milk… some carriers don?t work well because of that. This one is completely adjustable and stretchy, so we don?t have any issues. Highly recommend.
Bethany Taylor via Amazon.com –
It?s a constant cozy hug with your baby. I LOVE this wrap. After struggling with the painful and tiny arm holes in the Boppy carrier wrap, this feels like a dream! It?s like you?re giving your baby one big cozy hug.
My baby is 5 weeks old so I use the newborn hold. He felt very secure in there. It took a bit to get his head secure in the side panel, but that was just because he was moving his head around and wasn?t quite settled or still yet. Once he settled in, the side panel secured his head nicely. It?s pretty easy to calm your baby down if they get a little fussy since they are snugly tucked up against you. It?s such a nice closeness with your baby.
It?s relatively easy to put on, but I would definitely recommend watching some instructional videos. I watched some before I even got the wrap and it made it way easier for the first time I actually attempted to wear my baby.
There are official boba wrap videos on how to nurse your baby in the wrap, but I have not attempted yet. I do wish the videos showed how to get your baby back in position after nursing. They talk briefly about it, but I?m very visual and wish they showed it.
Overall, I really love this wrap. I am looking forward to using it much more and definitely recommend it to anyone with a little one!

A baby wrap is a must have for me! I have only has this wrap 2 days and it has already been worth its weight in gold!
My little guy is almost weeks old and weighs 8 pounds. He has been fussy since he was born, dealing with a few tummy issues so that anytime he was laid down he would cry and often spit up, even though he had been burped. He also typically eats once an hour or more so when I was told to keep him upright for 30 minutes after feeding him I was discouraged… no sleep for me ever. Sigh. I started researching carriers and initially wanted to stay away from a wrap because it seemed too complicated. When I learned about hip dysplasia I became concerned about trying to use one of the more rigid carriers with buckles because my baby is still so small. I was also on a budget and couldn’t justify spending over $100 for something that would only be used for a matter of months. (Note: Now that I have used a wrap for a couple days I would say that it is worth it to spend more for an ergonomically correct buckle in style carrier if you are so intimidated by a wrap that you would go without a carrier. But before doing that I would recommend trying a wrap.)
I asked our pediatrician what she recommended and she said a wrap was the way to go. I researched various wraps and watched a few videos on how to properly use them. I decided to purchase this Boba wrap because of it’s good reviews and price point.
I was able to properly use it my very first try. It was so much easier than I thought! I credit the ease of use to watching enough videos on YouTube beforehand. If you do your research it should be easy for you too. 🙂
Pros:
– Baby is very secure and comfortable.
– Baby doesn’t slip down or need to be readjusted.
– I can finally get some things done around the house and my baby is happy!
– Affordable.
– Much easier to use than I thought.
Cons:
– I get quite warm while using the wrap. I’m glad my baby was born in the fall because the thought of using this wrap in weather over 70 degrees is not appealing. I had seen other wraps that were lighter/ thinner but they tended to wear out quickly according to some reviews. If your baby is born in warm weather months you may want to try a lighter weight wrap.
Final thoughts: Having this wrap has already saved my sanity. It would make an AMAZING baby shower gift! It is certainly something I plan on buying as a gift for friends in the future.
If my opinion about this wrap changes in the future I will update this review. For now, I love it!
Elouise via Amazon.com –
Comfortable and Worth It. I previously bought another off brand moby wrap to save some money. It was less expensive than The Boba Wrap, but didn?t have any spandex/stretch. It got the job done but we never really fell in love. I finally decided to ?splurge? a little extra on this wrap, which indicates having some stretch to the fabric. Totally worth it! It?s exactly what was missing with our other wrap. The stretch is super helpful putting it on, putting baby in, and having the option to help support baby?s head. It?s just more beneficially flexible! The fabric is also quality and soft enough. I?m more comfortable and even baby seems more comfortable. The biggest bummer was how long it took to ship and receive this product (nearly a month), but we were well informed and in need of something new. The wait was long but also worthwhile! We ordered the color, Vintage Blue; it doesn?t seem as light/bright as the picture but still accurate. I think the picture displayed must have really bright/natural light to help, but in typical every day light, I think the fabric appears a little darker. We still love it! Overall, worth the price and wait (if there is one yet). I was also able to register the product upon receipt for a 2 year warranty with their website. Very cool! (Our baby is currently about 11lbs so we have only tried him in the ?hug hold.? They suggest up to 10lbs for the ?newborn hold?).

Love it and baby loves it. I bought a carrier that has the buckles and is more for outdoor use and can be used in the front or back and it was too bulky. Especially to use around the house. I was nervous about getting this because of having to do the wrapping myself instead of getting a ktan or something that was already together. However, since I?m losing weight, I didn?t want to commit to one size, so I got this. I?m so glad I did. I?m a visual learner and didn?t know if I?d be able to figure it out quickly, but I watched a video once and read the directions as I put it on and it was so simple. I put my baby in it and she loved it. She fell asleep within 5 minutes of me putting her in it. The only downside is it?s a little warm since the fabric is thick. I get warm easily and so does my baby, but if I?m in the house, I?ll just dress her in a onesie. I can?t wait to try it out in public so I don?t have to take the car seat in. I definitely recommend this wrap!
