Moby Bamboo Wrap Review

About Moby

Moby is a leading figure in the baby wearing community. They were my first wrap, (Other than the cat pouch hoodie I sometimes carry my kitty with), and will always hold a special place in my heart. I learned how to baby wear with a Moby (by watching YouTube videos at that time) and will always hold a special place in my heart. I learned how to baby wear with a Moby (by watching YouTube videos at that time). I have since held memberships with my local Baby Wearing International (BWI) group and used many types and brands of baby carriers. When a new mom wants to try to wear her baby with a wrap, I always suggest a Moby for her first wrap. This is because its safe, easy to use, affordable and comfortable. These are key words for any new mom. We are sleep deprived, hungry, exhausted and out head is spinning with questions and thoughts. I can assure you new mom, a Moby wrap is the way to go.

Moby has been around since 2003. They have been rocking the baby wearing community every since. They strive to empower parents. Making sure they are in with trends and child safety, they always have our best interest at heart.

Moby carries many types of wraps, but their newest wrap is the Bamboo. This is such an amazing wrap. Check out my full experience below.

Mama’s Experience

I started off my baby wearing experience with a basic cotton/original Moby wrap. Having the experience of both that original wrap and now the Bamboo Moby wrap under my belt, I can safely give you a nice basic comparison.

Firstly, I want to mention a awesome improvement on this Bamboo Wrap – the middle marker. The middle marker is used when wrapping. This helps you gauge where you are due to the length of a wrap. Before, on the original Moby, the middle marker tag is a physical tag. Like what you would find on a shirt, a label if you will. It was attractive but sometimes would annoy the wearer or the child. A middle marker is super needed and shouldn’t be removed until you really know your carrier and know how to wrap. Now, the middle marker is screen printed on. This makes it smooth and flush against the wrap. No more irritation but still allows you to clearly find the center of the wrap.

Dad’s love to use the Moby. Its soft, easy to move around while wearing and allows them to have a special connection with their child

Benefits of the Bamboo Moby Wrap

 

  • The Bamboo Moby carrier is much lighter than the original cotton version. This makes it more of a “summer friendly” wrap. The material is very breathable and gives you more air flow – making it cooler to wear.
  • It’s very ‘silky’ due to the nature of viscose fiber material. This makes wrapping very smooth, allowing the panels to glide easily over your body and each cross fold.
  • This is not a ‘diggy’ wrap (digs into your shoulders), as some woven wraps can do. Often the breathable wraps don’t have much ‘give’. This wrap is really ideal.
  • Comes in: black, cloud, teal, charcoal, denim & blush
  • Screen printed middle marker – comfortable (no tag irritation) and easy to find

  4. I love my classic Moby wrap, though it took the longest of my wraps to learn to use.

  6. I love baby wearing with wraps. The tag in the center helps a lot with centering and wraps works so much better for little babies than standard carriers.

  8. An awesome detailed review. I love that this Moby is softer. We have an old hand-me-down Moby and it’s our favorite, but I’d love to try the new bamboo material!

  9. This is a stellar review of a phenomenal product. Couldn’t properly mom without my Moby wrap.

  12. I would love to have one of these. I’m about to be a first time mom so having a wrap that is easy to use and isn’t complicated! Plus my baby is due in late May so the breathable fabric will be perfect for taking walks in the hot weather. Hopefully I win the giveaway =]]

  13. My Moby is my only wrap – it was a lifesaver in the beginning. I will definitely get a bamboo Moby when we think about little #2!

  14. I love seeing Daddys wear their babies, and am glad that things like the Moby wrap are easy for them to use.

  15. I love the looks of it and it appears to hold the baby safe and secure. I also like that it has the marker so you know you are putting it on the right way. I also think it is great that Dads can use it also. Being hands free sometimes is a must..sometimes you need both hands and have to hold the baby too..great idea!!

  18. I didn’t realize that they had improved the middle marker. These are awesome but having an easier marker is great

  20. I wish I would have used this with my daughter, I really wanted to wear my baby and I had such a hard time with her when she was a newborn, (shes 9 months now) and I gave up after the second time of trying it.

  22. I have one of these and I was skeptical about it at first, I have to say that I absolute love my Moby! ? It’s so easy to use and me and my baby is comfortable while using it. I actually got rid of my other carriers after purchasing and trying this!

  23. I loved carrying my child in a baby carrier! My mom teased me that my child’s feet didn’t hit the floor till she was two. LOL

  24. This would have been so helpful when my kids were little! Thanks for sharing!

  25. i appreciate your comments like, how this wrap is more breathable and summer friendly and how it doesn’t dig into your body- so important!!

  26. I am a first time mom (due in August) & I’m looking for something to use with my newborn that’s easy to learn & more breathable/cooler than the Tula I have for later on. Thanks for posting this review & helping me decide on a bamboo Moby!

  27. This wrap sounds great. My niece is pregnant with her first child and I think I will get her one of these. Thank you for all this information

  32. A friend of mine used a Moby whenever she took her newborn in public. It cut way down on the spread germs from baby being touched and passed around, without Mama needing to be “the bad guy.”

  33. This is a very thorough Review, I am definitely SOLD 🙂 This wrap is everything that I’d like to have in a wrap baby carrier..I really appreciate the very informative review..

  35. I absolutely love my original Moby wrap. I can’t wait to try the bamboo – the material really does regulate temperature, seeing as my LO is comfortable in his bamboo diapers and sleep sack.

  39. I have heard such great reviews about the Moby wraps, and this helped me feel like I could figure out how to use it!

  40. I live on the gulf coast so I have been eyeing a Moby Bamboo because I think the bamboo will be a little cooler. I would LOVE to try this out!

  41. I learned that the Bamboo Moby carrier is much lighter than the original cotton version.

  42. I found the Moby wrap so confusing with my first child! But after some practice and another kid it was so easy and I never left the house without it 🙂

  43. This looks comfortable. It also looks like it wouldnt get too terribly hot. Nice looking wrap!

  44. I would absolutely love to try a Moby wrap!! I am due in June and would love to have my hands free some of the time 🙂

  46. I learned that the Bamboo Moby carrier is much lighter than the original cotton version and they have come a long way from the original baby carriers.

  49. I love how easy it is to use this baby carrier. It’s also very sleek looking and looks good on a man or woman.

  52. This wrap looks comfy and the baby looks secure. I like that it’s bamboo. When I was having kids they only had slings or uncomfy contaptions. Glad things have changed. Although the sling was amazing for breastfeeding…

  53. My head is spinning with the information. I think these things will make a mother/dad life easier. Wish we had them way back win. I learned so many things but what I really like was that bamboo is summer friendly. And this would be perfect for our needs

  56. I’ve never successfully wrapped my child, he would run every time. Hopefully, I can start early enough with the next one that they wont be able to run. lol

  57. I love that its made of bamboo. With summer almost here. It would be perfect for my newborn grandson.

  59. I really like that it is affordable and comfortable! Thanks for the review!

  61. I like how breathable it is and how great it looks on dads! It’s great for them to get in on the wrap action!
