Thule Infant Sling

I have been using this since my daughter was 3 months old and it has been wonderful. The YouTube video was easier to follow than the instruction book!! I run and found the support fantastic as she doesn't feel a thing and jostle around which is perfect. Well worth getting so you can utilise your chariot to the fullest.

As a parent of twin infants (9 1/2 months old) who have been strapped into these infant slings in our Thule Chariot Cougar 2 many times, I have to say these things have been fantastic. Admittedly, getting the assembly right was a little confusing, and as another person commented, it's a lot easier to follow using the video online than reading the instruction manual; however, when properly done, at least in my experience, the infants are very secure in the harness and we've had no issues. Once the installation sequence is understood, they're also easy to remove for washing (as we've had to do once or twice after diapers have failed to perform adequately).So some can better understand how this sling works with the Thule carriers such as the Cougar 2, here's a little explanation of how it works: when the infant is secured in the properly assembled sling and harness, the infant will be secured in the sling by what is effectively a five-point harness, with one strap coming up between the legs, one strap from each side around the waist, and one strap coming down over each shoulder. (In actuality, the shoulder and waist strap on each side are one and the same, with the side buckles creating the delineation once clipped in to the center buckle.)The beauty of this system is how quickly and easily the straps are operated and adjusted. It's so easy to get our babies in and out quickly, and the sling provides great support for their little baby heads.Until the snow started falling in December, we got plenty of use out of the slings on walks, jogs, runs, over broken and bumpy sidewalks and grass, gravel and dirt, and never once worried about the security of these slings.Considering that the expensive child carrier is useless without this infant sling until the baby is older, the money spent here is very, very worth it in our experience. Think of it this way: you're not only buying the sling. You're buying fresh air and sunshine. You're buying exercise and escape. You're buying freedom from being cooped up in the house with baby all day. If you're going to spend hundreds of dollars on the Thule carrier anyways, you may as well spend a little more so you can begin using it that much sooner! Anyways, we're very happy we bought ours, and we think you will be too.

Baby girl is 8 months and still riding in this. Used it when she was 3 weeks, she has been so comfy. I love the whole set up, the Chariott (Thule? Cougar 2) is the most amazing stroller. I had the Bob jogger for my first and never really liked running with him in the carseat. I am not a big "leave your kid in the carseat" person anyway, so I hated that I would drive somewhere and leave him in his seat, we'd run and I'd leave him in his seat to drive back...the kid wouldn't get picked up, that's terrible! So with chariott and the sling, baby is comfy with a soft ride and truly seems happy with the situation! My kids have always loved running in the stroller, so I am pretty lucky!

I love this for the ease of use and comfort for my baby. We use this daily and baby loves her rides! She’s comfy and it’s so perfect for her and provides stability u til she can safely ride in the stroller without the sling.

It's a gift, so we haven't used it. But the item arrived quickly and is what we ordered.

Seems small... There is no center chest clip, just over the shoulder that buckles at the crotch so my baby ends up leaning to one side and in 2 instances, almost falling out (of the sling, not out of the stroller) since one of his shoulders slipped in between the 2 straps. My other son (riding with him) noticed it which prevented the fall

If you have a baby and like to bike with your trailer, you NEED this! It is like a little recliner for them. My daughter loves the sling and often times falls asleep. I have been able to bike my older daughter to school with my baby in the trailer with no problems. Very secure and soft. Great product.

The straps in the cheetah are not long enough to work with this sling. My kids butt doesn’t seat right, everything is way to tight.
