Great Design, adjustable and modular to allow for easy ingress & egress of Baby.

We found the Lascal M to be light weight and high quality. Did compare to the Bjorn's, but Lascal was by far better, in almost all aspects. The Lascal M Carrier opens up completely and 'front contraption' can be removed and placed on the bed while the straps are still on. Just put the baby on the contraption, & lift it to clip it on .. its that simple.
No hassles of struggling to put the baby's legs into the Carrier, which believe me is really a struggle if the baby is not in a good mood !!
You need to read the instructions to understand operations for the first time, but after that is a 'cake walk'
Good quality & an acceptable price. Design (both appearance and functionality) are fantastic !!

This is by far the best carrier I tried, much more comfy than the Baby Bjorn and so easy to put on.

easy to use
very comfy
width + length adjuster for baby means it adjusts to fit the baby really well
spine support for baby
bamboo top cover great for sheltering baby from wind or sun
a bit pricey but worth it
I tried the Baby Bjorn and a couple of other cheaper carriers before trying the Lascal M1 and this was by far the best. The very first time you put it on it was a little fiddly working out where all the straps went but after that it was so easy to use. The back support means that it was very comfy for me to carry baby (my husband also found it comfortable) and the built in spine support for the baby gave me peace of mind that I was not harming the baby. Other great features for the baby are the width and length adjuster which meant that I used the Lascal M1 from newborn to about 9 months (it says you can use it up to 14kg but I switched to a back carrier after that). Another great little feature is the top cover which you can pull up to shelter the baby from the wind and cold or the sun and this can be taken off for washing if (or when!) baby is sick on it. This is made from bamboo so is lovely and soft as are the other parts of the carrier around the legs and arms. It's really easy to put baby in and out and it looks great too (it comes in all sorts of colours). If you're not sure which carrier to buy get this one - you won't regret it!
