Can't decide between the Airflow or Organic Lillebaby carrier? Will the organic be too hot or airflow not as comfortable?

I live in seattle.WA, has mild whether in summer.I bought the organic one. I am so satisfied with it Unless you live in the area, has hot summer.

I have the organic and it isn't hot at all. I have seen the airflow and it is mostly a mesh material. If you live in a hot climate, that might work better for you. I am in CO and we have had a hot summer and the organic has been fine for us.

I live in Hawaii and I love my organic carrier. I choose it over airflow because it is softer and more comfortable. It is not hotter than to have your baby in the stroller. I have noticed that it can be more sweating in area where my baby touches me then in baby-carrier area. You can loosen the carrier and put your hands in between carrier and your baby's back to let air flow from time to time. It works perfectly for us. Love it!

Hi,The lillebaby COMPLETE Organic carrier is very soft and is not too hot. The lillebaby COMPLETE Airflow carrier is made of a 3D mesh material that is soft to the touch, but not as soft as the lillebaby COMPLETE Organic material. We hope this helps.Thanks,lillebaby

Sorry but I only know about the g Luxe which I have. My friends have the mama papas one which was so much cheaper and lighter. Uppababy G Luxe is not good. I regret getting mine.

I honestly haven't gotten the chance to use it that much yet... My baby just turned 6 months, but from the few times I have used it I left the infant insert in it (which comes with the seat) and it is a fleece like material and he did sweat! (It was summer time and hot out so I kind of expected it) but when I felt the material the first thing that ran across my mind is if he was going to be too hot sitting on it. The seats material is supposed to be better and more breathable then the G2 I just haven't gotten a chance to try it out yet. But I think it will be fine! Wish I could help more!

Personally I feel that the Dream On Me Evenflo Baby Suite Selection 300 Foam Mattress with Square Corner (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009RPH72I/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) is a better fit, even though its not as firm. As another reviewer mentioned, the mattress is a bit narrower than the Evenflo Portable Baby Suite, there are some noticeable gaps, not HUGE gaps, but definitely doesn't fit as snug as the other mattress I mentioned.

I have a k-tan breeze and would not breastfeed in it. The baby is in the right position for it, but I don't feel as though there's enough fabric to cover. Would use a secondary cover, in my opinion. The cotton version would probably be a little better for nursing than the breeze version I have though. Hope this helps.

I have both...I have a 6 year old, a 3 year old and a 6 month old. I purchased the newer frontiers for my oldest children and an advocate for my youngest because he's heavy and I knew he would outgrow his infant carrier a lot sooner than expected. I noticed that my 3 year old was struggling to sleep in her frontier on a 12 hour car ride so we pulled over and gave her the advocate and placed my then 4 month old back into his infant carrier and base (luckily it was still in the back of my van) and she passed out within minutes. I find the smaller children still aren't ready to nap in the frontier without looking completely uncomfortable and leaning forward constantly...I've seen purchased another advocate for my son since his sister took his. Hope that helps.

I would say no to two of anything older then 10 week old puppies. I bought my 1st of this carrier at a TJ Maxx. And then came to Amazon for another 5, that is how much I like the style. My Maltipoo flies commercially with me about 1x a month. The carrier fits under a seat, but the top does get smooshed down. My Maltipoo is almost 10 lbs is 16" inches from the base of his head to his tail. He is 10" tall from ground to top of shoulder blades, around his chest he measures 13" inches. He can stand and turn around and loves it. But in all honestly my Maltipoo loves being in purses and carriers. My other fosters, just slightly larger by say 3lbs and 2" length or height are not so pleased with the carrier. Also I caution the opening is small. My guy likes crates and such so he sneaks right in. For the other doggies I have to unzip the sides and drop them in that way. Hope this helps

I have a baby trend. Its a pain in the toosh to get on when the baby is in the seat though. FYI.. I haven't used mine yet.

By all means go with the peapod. My four daughters use them when they are on the go... packs quickly and compactly, is light to carry and versatile. I have bought several for baby shower gifts. I have a pack and play at my home - very cumbersome and heavy and big. My daughters often just bring their own peadpod in and use that instead.

It's simar to the doctor brown. I used both and I prefer the vent air. She had less formula run out her mouth with the vent air. I used these 10 years ago with my older daughter. And my lactation consultant gave them to me with this baby due to colic. So I would try them and see what works best for your baby. In my opinion these work better and take half the time to clean.

Thank you for your reply ... I have actually had this stroller for 11 months and I've been putting the Graco Snugride in the back the whole time. It is completely safe and snug. The weight of the carrier falls well beween the two sets of wheels and is extremely sturdy. I appreciate your warning of "looking like such and incompetant" ... but I would never, ever put my children in danger, even if I don't follow every rule to the letter.

We have two naturepedic portacrib mattresses - one for daycare and one for at home - and we have used both the naturepedic portacrib mattress covers and the American Baby Company Organic Waterproof Natural Quilted Fitted Portable/Mini Crib pad cover. We are happy with both. For the portacrib at home we also have the naturepedic deluxe quilted cover. It fits a little big but we fold it over so it is nice and tight. For safety reasons I would not recommend too large of a fit if your little one is not able to lift his/her head & shoulders easily. Hope this helps!

Not a great choice for either I would say... its not an offroad stroller, and its simply too large to be reasonable at a busy airport. I wont lie, this sucker is heavy and long. I would take measurements of your vehicle before you buy because it wont fit in some. That said for things like zoo days or parks with sidewalks, we absolutely love it. Our 4 year has some physical limitations and the back seat allows her easy in and out and lets her feel like a big kid without being strapped into a traditional mobility stroller. I completely endorse it, but you need to be aware this is probably not an every day kind of stroller.

I used this liner in a Chicco KeyFit when my LO was 5-8 months old last winter. There was still plenty of room for the straps to fit comfortably around her. This year, she is 21 lbs and it is too snug if I put her, with a thin puffer jacket (patagonia puffer or gap thinsulate puffer) and the liner, so I've been putting the liner over her for warmth. and I also used it in the spring in her stroller when it was too warm for a full bunting, but still chilly. They say you can use it when it's hot out, but it was 90 degrees here and she was sweating like crazy when I had the liner in her stroller! I loved this liner so much I got the full bunting for her stroller (I walk in the city a lot) and it's amazing. I think going the natural route is a lot more flexible (and perhaps healthier) than the synthetic. I'd recommend it.

I would return if box is open. I keep the liners in the box until use. If I transport liners, I use a plastic ziplock baggy. Make sure to push out the extra air to close the air gap so baby doesn't swallow air.

Go with Ergo or Boba. It will be more comfortable for both baby and wearer. Those two are very adjustable and also have extenders for bigger wearers.

Well, I have the orange one and heat is not an issue what so ever, special if your child is sitting on it then I guess you should not be worrying about seat getting hot when balck color was chosen specially with all the vent holes that it has...I would go with color that I like and not worry about heat...by the way you'll love it..I got the Plexiglas shield as well that mounts in the front of it which protects the baby form bugs and wind also does not hit his face directly.
