Angel Pack .. " Just a Kiss away " baby carrier A real review from a real Momma

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~If your like me you prefer to "wear" your baby than tote around a heavy award car seat or stroller .. when your just popping in or going into a place where the location or shopping is tight.. or you have a baby who wants to be held all the time ...

About 3 months ago Nelly from Angel Pack sent me an e-mai lon Face book asking if I would be interested in one of their pack that was inadvertently seven together with the wrong colored straps and lining ... and being a "non fussy" momma I said SURE... I didnt know she would send it to me free of charge and I didnt know it would be one from her new line...

I received the beautiful Cherry Blossom , on her site its shown with a solid plum coloured body and straps with a BEAUTIFUL mint green print with little birdy's and cherry blossoms... mine arrived with the same print but with Navy blue body and straps.. and honestly.. I dont care the body and straps are the wrong colour.. its so freaking pretty...

the style is that of a soft body carrier, large waist strap with a nice strong buckle , Very adjustable and I like that the clip is in the middle of the back rather than the side or hip ... the padded shoulder straps can be worn two ways .. either criss crossed or you can use the chest clip in pull it tight...
you can also put baby on your back too...

The Angel Pack carrier is a baby facing you only style pack so baby can not front face out in it ...

The carrier also has an interior pocket that contains the sleeping hood.. this is also great for discreet nursing , or blocking the sun ...

this carrier is beautifully made, with great love an attention.. the fabrics , belts , clips and straps are all of the highest quality..

and have I mentioned how pretty it is to look at ....

The Angel Pack Sell for $138 dollars (USA dollars ) .... which is a reasonable price for such a high quality carrier ...

the carrier is weighted for children 4.5 - 18.2 kg's (10-40 pounds) Mr K is nearly 3 and 38 pounds and I popped him on my back and he thought it was a great ride... and my husband said.. Yeah I will wear that one .. My Ergo is Pink so he has never worn it...

You can hand wash or machine wash on the delicate cycle and hang to dry.. I love a product that can go into the washing machine !!!!

STAY TUNED for a "real life wearing" review .... as it has just arrived today I haven't actually had a chance to wear Lil L.. (20pounds and 10months old ) in the Angel Pack yet...
But as soon as I have had some experience with it I will write up a review... I just wanted to share this new pack ASAP so the whole world .. or who ever is reading this blog review a chance to check out Angel Pack quickly... :)


ok, so Lil L finally woke up from her nap ( I know right.. I'm so excited that i nearly woke her.. note the word "nearly" ) anyhoo she LOVED it.. she giggled and liked being in the carrier on my front and back... and I thought it was pretty comfy too....

right off the bat I prefer the straps over my shoulders and secured using the chest clip .. I didnt really like the criss cross position as it didnt fit right on my body....
and I wish the chest clip wasnt "free" is can easily fall off if the straps are un clipped... and if there was a way to "snap" the chest clip in place I wouldnt need to reposition it each time, or worry about loosing a piece....

the waist band is awesome.. I like how I can adjust it easily when waring it ... and I do like how the shoulder straps are adjustable in two places to get a very secure fit...

the shoulder padding is decent.. It didnt cut into my shoulders or give me shoulder fatigue or pain ...

I love the sleeping hood, it fully tucks away when not in use and is easy to put on when needed

and I like how the top of the carrier "rolls " down a bit when baby is awake or is shorter, and is higher when baby sleeps or gets bigger

all in all so far this carrier seems pretty great... I've only done a little "running " around the house in it for about 45 mins ... and it was very comfortable on, supported my baby and didnt make my back sore ....
I'll do a more intensive review once I get a chance to wear it for some walks or trips to the mall :)


Ok so We went for a walk after dinner tonight and I wore Lil'L for our walk.. about 40 mins on flat (ish) ground... and I have to be honest... if I didnt have an Ergo to compare this pack to I'd say this pack has thought of just about everything ... I adjusted the straps and they defiantly worked best for me un crossed , with the chest strap clicked in the middle of my back,, i needed to get my husband to adjust the chest strap so it was in the right spot.. and once it was put there it did slip up wards slightly but not more than about 1/2 and inch ... there was enough padding that the straps didnt dig into my shoulders and the placement of the waist belt was great for support ... My daughter LOVED it... well I think she did. .she fell asleep in it so thats always a good sign.... I will try back carrying her next ..

stay tuned for the Back carry review coming soon !!!!
