The arms slid off too easy for him to be able to wear, the waist/chest was ok when tighten all the way.

I don't think it'll work. My girl is 25lbs and with a bit of a belly and it fit good on her but with strap totally as tight around waist as it could go. Skinnier and it wouldn't have been tight there.

Hello! I hope it will continue to work for my son when he is 4 years old. I had my niece sit in ours (she is 4 and tall for her age). It was fine for her - especially when the canopy is a little bit open or all the way open. But each kid is a different shape, so you may want to find this stroller in the store and measure it or have your son sit in it to see if you are comfortable with the space. The stroller is really great, and I love it, so I hope it will work for your family!

It worked great for my now 2 1/2 year old. She has been wearing since she was 7 mo. She wears it by choice now.

In my opinion it isn't. But I had a bigger baby using it. Always 90th % for height/weight. It's not something they can pull themselves up with then walk. It's more of something they grab when already standing.

I had the same problem! My kiddo is thin and lean and really tall. She is well under the 45 pound limit but she is so long! She's so much taller than me, she can see over my shoulder when I use our BOBA. She loves being able to see! Like the other commenter Lisa mentioned, a bigger kid can have their arms up and over the shoulder straps and it works fine! I am sooooo happy I bought this devise. So much better than the Ergo. FYI. I bought it in the brown color and it is really dark at night when we stroll. I have attached reflector tape and those LED light up orbs that are sold for dog collars. Its made me feel safer walking in the dark. I had the same problem! My kiddo is thin and lean and really tall. She is well under the 45 pound limit but she is so long!

I think it depends on how big they are and how much head control they have. I used it for my first daughter before she could sit up....I loved it. It is something that I plan to use again on my second who is a week old. I will probably try him in it when he is a month or so old to see how he does....it is worth the investment...it also protects the fabric seat well into when they are older.

I have an 8 month old son who is in the 98th percentile for height and weight and he still fits fine. I also have a friend who's 1 year old is also in the 98th percentile and he still fits.

My little guy is 7.5 months old and we had him in the Large about three months ago. It was big but it was still effective and he didn't mind sleeping in it! It wasn't a magical experience as he still is up every two hours to nurse (no fault of the sleep suit of course!) but it REALLY did help with the amount of jerking movements that would wake him up. He is 18lbs and 28 inches and the large still fits his body but his arms and legs have grown out of the length of the sleeves (poor boy goes to bed in high waters but we are still using the sleep suit ;)!!!! So if you want a snug fit go with the smaller size! Hope my babble helps! My little guy is 7.5 months old and we had him in the Large about three months ago.

It's been great for our daughter since she was about 20 months old. The optional padding helped with customizing the size. She still has plenty of room to grow. She's about 6th percentile for weight and her head's pretty proportionate to her body. I hope this helps!

I still have my 2 year old in it at the tightest setting. He is 70th percentile in weight. My 4 year old can still fit too. I tested him out to make sure the chair would work long term

I think so. I am not sure how tall my baby is, but he was about 22 lbs when we started to use this product. I think, it's an excellent product for baby who is still learning how to sit. I also think the design of this product is really nice for babes who learn how to sit.

I used it this summer for my two year old that weighed around 30-32 lbs and he just lounged in it. My sister also used it for her daughter that was a year and weighed around 26 lbs. it worked for both of them pretty well. Best floatie I've had by far!!! The seat goes under the water so it's not a balancing act they can sit comfortably.

my baby was 6lbs at birth and is now 10lbs - they have fit great so far. I would classify her as a "skinny" baby. In the beginning we really had to wrap them tightly and angle the tabs a bit because her legs were so skinny. I used them with GMD- Workhorse clotheze fitteds and they worked fabulous - never had any urine leaks only the occasional EBF diaper blowout. But honestly the cloth did better with big poos than disposables. She is just now starting to grow out of them :)

Did you end up purchasing this stroller or a different one? I am in the same predicament and haven't decided. Concerned that my two kids, 2 years and 5 months, both 100th percentile, will outgrow quickly. Thanks for any feedback.

I think from birth is fine. Our little guy is now 13 pounds, 22 inches, and fits really well. When he was born he was early at 5 pounds and change; he didn't fit well at that time, but sometime in between everything worked out, probably all depends on length. Even when he was was tiny we put him in once for a short walk and just reclined the back so that there wasn't as much effect of gravity. The next time we tried it after that he was around 8-9 pounds and was fine. Hope that helps some.

My daughter was at about the same growth percentage and she wasn't quite able to touch her feet to anything. At about 14 months she was finally able to touch and uses it all the time now.

I think so, my daughter is 5, also tall and skinny and it works great for her!
