I noticed the spec suggests the carrier is for 2yr old and above. Any idea if It might work for a 1yr old ~20lbs body weight, 30 inches ht. thks

That's close to the size my son was when we first put him in. It worked fine for us and he enjoyed the ride.

I have and it worked fine. It really depends on the child and their head control. My daughter was almost walking at that age and could handle the ride. Would think if the child is sitting up and has good head control it would be fine. I don't know if I would go mountain biking but on the road or dirt would be fine.

The specs are there for protection of the company in case if an accident, they can't be sued. For safety reasons, you should follow the recommended age and weight. That being said, I am a mom and I often disregard specs too because I know what my daughter is capable of. If your 1 year old can hold his or her head up sturdy, the straps are adjustable and I think it would work.

The height and weight are correct for the baby carrier. However, I would always suggest that you ask your pediatrician if your child is ready. He has to be able to hold his head erect, wear a helmet, etc. Manufacturers rightly practice CYA in their recommendations, but each child is different. Enjoy!

It didn't work for my 26 pound two year old, honestly they are safer to use an actual car seat or have the child sot in your lap. They sell straps that can attach a car seat to a rolling carry on that make them into a stroller that work great. My suggestion is to get one of those.

I think it is more of a size thing rather than age. My daughter is tiny, but still on it and has been for over a year now. I wouldn't go more than probably 80 pounds on it.

weight limit for small size carrier is only 10 lbs, not 22 as stated from an earlier answer. The large size has a weight limit of 22 lbs.

At six months my daughter was still in her carrier. I moved her from the carrier to this, but she's on the small side and was in her carrier until she was almost one. It has just as much cushioning as her carrier did, but I would be worried about it being too big.

I used it for my son who was 7mths old at the time and it was perfect he too was small. It should be fine. It is for up to 30lbs

I think it would work - just double check the up to weight. My grandson is 22lbs and does fine in it.

I put a weight limit on mine of 45lbs, the kid is simply too big for the train after that. I'd look at Peg-Perego products that tend to be larger.

I have this travel system in a different pattern. Mine is the 22. According to the title it says 30 but if you read te features section it says 22. So I am assuming you get the 22 with this one also. Which means it can hold up to a 22 pound child versus 30 pounds. However, my son currently weighs 14.5 pounds and I can tell you there is no way I would keep him in this seat until 30 pounds!

The Baby Bjorn will be too small. I recommend the Ergo original carrier (not the sport or performance) which has straps that easily extend to fit most people. Plus you can use it till your child is 40 lbs, vs the Baby Bjorn that only can be used till age one (20 lbs) as it becomes very uncomfortable.

Twenty pounds is a large cat, yet, I say this will work. I like the product. I don't think it would be comfortable for hour after hour, however. Good carrier though. Good luck. CC

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.

I started riding with my son in it when he was 1 year old and up to when he was 4 years old and he surpassed the 40lb weight limit and out grew it. I'd have no problem riding a child under 1 yrs in it either

It's quite a bit wider than a ergo carrier. I carry my 28 pound 2 year old in it.

Yes I bought it for my 2 1/2 mo old and it worked fine. Although my daughter was 11 lbs at the time. Now shes 4 1/2 mo and 17lbs and still has plenty of room!

This carrier is for DOLLS, not for living babies. It fits 15-18 inch dolls only and although it is designed very similarly to the mommy size one for a real baby it is not authorized or safe for living babies, it is only designed for toys. As for the weight limit of the child WEARING the doll carrier, we have one and my daughter began using at at her 3rd birthday and still wears her dolls in this carrier and has just turned 6. If waist measurement is an issue, I would say that it is pretty expandable and that given its straps and buckles a pretty hefty child could still wear this to carry their doll. The Ergo Baby carriers for baby that a mom would wear usually cost $100 or more. Hope this helps!

This would work great! It's seriously the most versatile carrier we have tried. I'm 5ft and my hubby is almost 6ft. We both use it fine. It's got a good wide bottom so it supports the baby properly instead of letting them dangle. Our son loves it and he's 15 months old and still has room to grow in it.
