From RockCreek:
"The Kid Comfort II Child Carrier Pack by Deuter is the most successful carrier on the market. With a new and improved frame design and fabric add to the increased carrying comfort. The Wall Street Journal named the Kid Comfort II their "Best Overall" backpack-style baby carrier. It "won unanimous approval" from the Journal's testers: "'I didn't know I was wearing it,' dad James Kolenski said of the nearly six-pound pack after the hike was over. The carrier also had a well-designed kickstand, vents to help stay cool and lots of storage room. And our younger testers? Baby Megan fell asleep within minutes, her head pressing gently into the padded backrest." (The Wall Street Journal, March 10, 2006)See sizing chart for explanation of Vari-quick harness system"

"We got the Deuter Kid Comfort II on the recommendation of a friend and we couldn't be happier. It's comfortable to carry, has a hydration bladder pouch, and enough storage that if I was hiking by myself I'd have enough room for gear/diapers/food.

My husband and I often switch who carries it and it's super easy to change the torso length and adjust the straps."

"Have just finished backpacking around Europe with 4 kids - youngest is 2 and weighs 12 kg. We did heaps of walking and hikes. Stayed backpackers and did Eurail.

The 2 year old spent every day for at least 4 to 6 hours in the backpack
The backpack was excellent."

"We have a 5-month-old boy who weighs in at nearly 7 kgs. We have used the carrier 3 times now for about an hour each time walking on fairly easy bush trials.

Comfort levels for me are excellent. The hip strap carries the 6o% of the weight and the shoulder straps 40% making for a well balanced hike."
