what is it about the boba that makes it more comfortable than the ergo?

The Boba sits higher on the waist than the Ergo. Of the two, I prefer the Performance Ergo. It's more durable and better for hot weather. The Boba is canvas and doesn't hold up too well after a washing. Hope that helps.

Boba washes very well, but it is best to spot clean it. The foot straps make it more comfortable for older babies. Helps prevent the pins and needles feeling in their legs. Very often you see parents holding their child's feet anyway... this way you don't have to. I found this link helpful when I was deciding: http://www.theportablebaby.com/carrierfeatures.htmlI also like that the Boba wraps up on your waist (like a fanny pack). Not too cute, but practical.You have great support too.Good luck!

The Boba works better for petite people. I think the Boba holds up really well, in regards to what another reviewer said. Also, the ergo requires an infant insert right? The Boba doesn't, which is a great feature.

I havn't tried the ergo, but I have heard that because the strap is higher on the back of the neck that there is less strain on the back. I've also heard the ergo is not as confortable for shorter women. Good Luck.

For me, the boba is more comfortable since the straps have a contour and the adjustments are in two spots for the shoulder straps and the waist buckle is in the center. I also like the body which is higher up for baby which means more support and less strain for the wearer. I have never had a carrier that is not canvas, but I do like the material, it feels very durable and is not slippery and is quite durable. (I hope this helps)

The Big Agnes air mattress I had was comfortable but terrible slick. I spent half the night sliding around. Much better to get a Thermarest sleeping pad. It's bulkier when rolled up but much more comfortable, especially on a concrete floor. Go with a Thermarest pad!!

I tried both the Onya and the Boba 4G. The Boba was more comfortable by far for me due to the padded straps and construction. The Onya was a nice carrier & had some interesting features, but for comfort we went with the Boba.

Thanks so much for your interest in ergoErgo!There is no cushioning - rather, the ergoErgo has a domed seat that gives in a bit once you sit down on it. Once your body becomes accustomed to active sitting, you'll see why you don't need cushioning or back rests to be comfortable. We recommend sitting on ergoErgo for a few hours a day to start, and then gradually increasing that amount. After experiencing the benefits of sitting on ergoErgo, you'll never want to go back to an ordinary chair!Best,Kelly RennergoErgo

I have found it very comfortable; the indentation in the middle is larger at one side than the other, so you can turn it whichever way is more comfortable for you.

Hi The tanda Me Smooth feels like a quick zap of static shock on one and a rubber band snap on two. I haven't had to use it on anything higher yet. It also depends on where you are using it. The underarms will be slightly more sensitive than the legs. Hope this helps.

I have an organic ergo and have to use a waist extender. I am an XL woman. It fits very comfortable, but you do get a little pudge/muffin top effect over the wasteband, if I'm being honest. It's not the most flattering thing in the world if you have any excess in the middle area. My husband is not able to use the ergo carrier, even with the extender, because it's way too tight around the waste. He prefers the baby bjorn for younger baby because it has no waste strap. Good luck to you.

It is comfortable. I think it is easier to have a better grip, because it curved nicely inside the hand.

My Wife likes the new Ergo 360 vs the older version. She uses it every day.

In spite of the great reviews on it, this seat has more padding, but not so much more that I am totally comfortable on my bike. It does feel more comfortable than the original one that felt like steel on my backside; however, please note that I weigh 105 lbs and my bike rides do not last longer than 30 minutes which are two factors that may affect one's comfort level. I hope this helps.

I haven't done a complete analysis other than the reason I chose the Ergo 360 over the Bjorn, was that the ergo keeps my daughter's bottom cradled in a natural frog position in her hips & thighs and doesn't cause the hip & thigh dangle that the Bjorn does. I was also told for boys in a Bjorn it would be the equivalent of straddling an arm of a couch for a long period of time with gravity & walking I can't see how that would be comfortable.

This one is slightly more solid over all the the qanba. It has a standard square gate and the buttons are slightly smaller and smoother also. I own both a qanba and madcatz te stick and if I had to just one for lasting quality and performance it would be the madcatz te. It feels the most comfortable and is the easiest to mod if you so choose.

Well I'm not sure the technical answer but either way is comfortable for me and my husband. Ive had mine for a while and since my husband keeps taking mine I finally got him one!

I would definitely go for the graco! I hate my joovy ergo. It is extremely heavy, you can't fold it with the sunshade attachment and was a huge waste of money! The only positive is that the joovy is compatible with any carseat.

I'm a huge fan of Ergo Beads. The most comfortable of all the wrist cushions out there. Everyone has their preference, but I like the really soft feel over the rubbery kind. I also bought Contours To Your Arms & Elbows - Helps Reduce Pressure Points - Provides Extra Cushion for my arm wrests. Fantastic addition to your workstation chair.

It doesn't need an insert, it fits more snugly than the ergo. Much simpler!

I have had both, the regular strap was uncomfortable, did not register as well, and broke. The softstrap is more comfortable, does not slide down and therefore registers better - hopefully, it will last longer!
