Product Name: AP Adjustable Baby Carrier
Company: HotSlings
Age Range: 8lbs-35lbs
Product Overview: The easy to use Hotsling just got a whole lot easier. Introducing the new Hotslings AP™, an infinitely adjustable pouch-style sling that remains true to the Hotslings brand through its innovation and sleek design. Adjustable pouches are seen as the “holy grail” of pouch-style baby slings, and the AP is at the top of its class.
The Hotslings AP™ is a safe continuous loop – it cannot detach or break apart. Two strategically placed buckles allow the AP to adjust and fit comfortably on multiple users. The shoulder design is wide, yet sleek without excess fabric. Sleek padding is included on both sides of the pouch providing more comfort and support for baby in all three carrying positions. Parents and caregivers will now have the benefits of a Hotslings® pouch without the worry of buying the wrong size and/or needing to buy multiple sizes for breastfeeding on-the-go, post-partum body changes or sharing with caregivers and partners. The one-size-fits-most design makes gifting the Hotslings AP™ a no brainer allowing parents and caregivers to just adjust and go.
The new AP is packaged in a matching drawstring bag that offers storage for the sling itself or can be used as a coordinating, compact diaper bag and more. From HotSlings
Review: The Hotslings AP is an adjustable baby proof carrier that is suppose to be ‘dummy proof’ and is a one size fits most. We are a fan of fashionable items that works for both mom and baby. We loved the colors and feel of the fabric from the Kyoto design. We like that the sling can be worn on either shoulder, is washable and has great padding, where other slings hurt your shoulders. We like that fact that the sling can be used for infants to toddlers, making it a great value for the amount of use you will get out of the carrier. The sling is suppose to fit users up to 220lbs. We found that it was a little snug on our plus size moms. But it was a great sling overall. You can even throw a small pet in it to carry around (if you must, we don’t think this is the most fashionable thing to do unless your Paris Hilton). Now, I don’t think this is really dummy proof, if it is, we’re dummies. We just find most slings awkward if you are not an avid sling wearer. For first time use be sure to read the instructions, watch the helpful videos and have an extra set of hands handy to help get the hand of the Hotsling AP.
MommyReview’s Recommendation: Soft fabric against baby and mommy’s skin, great design with superb padding. Runs a little small for plus size moms.
Overall Rating: 3.5
Where to Buy: Fine Retailers and online stories; Diapers.com and Amazon

Thanks for the great giveaway! I've never heard of this brand before, but it looks like a really cute and comfortable sling. I love that there isn't a ton of excess fabric like a lot of other slings/wraps on the market!

I really liked my Hot Sling with my first child but was frustrated by the lack of ability to adjust it. It seems the buckles have taken care of this and I would be delighted to get to try it out with Baby #2 that is on the way.

I would love to win this! My sister is pregnant and due in April – this would come in handy for her!
I love that there is padding in the shoulders! I can’t wear my baby now because it hurts in my shoulders and back! This sling looks awesome and I would love to try it! Wearing your pet is a big no-no! :)
