The Beco 8 suits parents who want one soft-structured carrier to adjust from a small infant through toddler carrying, with a zipped panel that uncovers mesh and shoulder straps that can cross. Its 3.2-20.4 kg range is not one setup: snap the infant insert closed at 3.2-4.5 kg, leave it open at 4.5-6.8 kg, then remove it from 6.8 kg. Front inward carrying starts at 3.2 kg. Facing out requires at least 6.8 kg, six months, full head and neck control, and only limited awake periods. Hip carrying requires at least 6.8 kg, four months and full head control; back carrying requires 6.8 kg, six months, full control and independent sitting. Keep the baby upright, face visible and chin clear in every position.
