Osprey Poco LT Lightweight Child Carrier Backpack - Compact, Travel-Ready Kid Carrier with Sunshade and Adjustable Fit - Lightweight, Comfortable Hiking Carrier for Toddlers

For the outdoorsy parents.... they love this for the baby/child... this pack is easy to use and has loads of convenient bells and whistles ! Used all the time. Shade umbrella is wonderful but doesn't block any view!

This child carrier backpack has been amazing! We take it with us on hikes, walks, and bike rides, and it has made outdoor adventures with our little one so much easier. One of my favorite features is the built-in storage space, which is perfect for carrying diapers, wipes, snacks, and other essentials. I also love the canopy that provides excellent sun protection for my child while we're out and about. This carrier has definitely been worth the price. We've had it for two years, and it's still in great condition. Our daughter sits comfortably in it and often ends up falling asleep during our outings. It's durable, practical, and well-designed—I highly recommend it!

I feel overall a good carrier. I am no expert in hiking backpacks, and haven’t taken it to trek in the wilderness, but have been trekking in the urban jungles. Without a doubt the pack is large, and if you do decide to carry it on your sprawls through the streets, you gotta be mindful of people and things around you. Definitely almost knocked into people and things over. For flights, it can certainly fit in most standard overhead bins, but mostly horizontal or diagonally folded down. I was allowed to take it on flights, but then again, it definitely doesn’t fit in the sizer for domestic flights. I’d be for stricter airlines, they’d probably make you check it. It can fit one stuff folded down, but not a whole lot. It’s comfortable, but carrying a 20-ish pound baby with all the accoutrements will wear on you shoulders, back, and legs. Again, I’m not experienced backpacker/hiker. If you’re used to wearing a 30 lbs rucksack and marching for hours, I’m sure this will be a breeze. The sun canopy is toggles and gets velcroed into the back, wish they were snaps. The rest, quality osprey bag stuff that they are known for.

This child carrier backpack was an absolute GAME CHANGER for our trip. It’s insanely lightweight (like shockingly light), folds up really well for packing, and has SO much storage space. I was honestly impressed with how much we could fit in it. The built-in sun shade was a huge win! My daughter loved it, and she was super comfy the entire time. She loved it so much that she would literally ask to “sit on the backpack” all the time 🥹 We took this on a 2-week cruise through Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and Singapore, and it allowed us to do things we absolutely would not have been able to do with a stroller and a 1.5-year-old. We climbed temples, went on hikes (with monkeys), explored uneven terrain, and even rode an ATV…and she loved all of it. Bonus: everywhere we went, people stopped, stared, and smiled at the baby in the backpack, which made the experience even sweeter. She was happy, comfortable, and secure the whole time. If you’re traveling with a toddler and don’t want to feel limited, this is 100% worth it. Comfortable, practical, and honestly made our trip possible. Would buy again in a heartbeat.

Got this on a good deal. Have not had a lot of opportunity to use for long hikes. Product feels nice and quality for the most part. There were some things that I felt was a bit cheap like the foot straps. The bad would be the mechanism to adjust the backpack for different torso height. The velcro is tedious.

Tested out a few different carriers. This one was our favorite. Small enough for petite women, but still comfy for my husband. The configuration is so nice for the kids. Just a well thought out carrier AND light.

I dont hike but I want to now! I got this because it started to become a challenge to carry my baby on my chest all the time. Couldn't really do chores or anything since id have to try and dodge him. Haha Now my hands/arms are free to wash dishes or do laundry. I do wish there was more padding in the lower back area or some type of accessory I could get for that. Might just find some foam or pillow. Its not the worst, but more padding would just be nice! Its much better on my hips than the front carry was. Since i dont backpack/hike its takings some getting used to since im using muscles i dont usually use, but thats alright too! My baby loves to go in and walk around outside. He really likes the sunshade too, like a little fort. Very easy to use and has a lot of storage too. Feels like a really well made carrier and I dont worry about him falling out, so it feels secure too. I did look into a bunch of other back carry options before deciding on this Osprey one. The others were either too bulky looking or looked like I would have trouble getting my 9 month old in it. This one seemed large enough and small enough. I walk around my house with it on and dont bump anything. Very happy with the purchase and would buy again.

Perfect for outdoor adventures- my boy even falls asleep in there sometimes! Family loves it so much even grandma wanted to rock it!

Perfect

On a hésité avec le modèle plus gros, mais ce Poco LT est parfait pour notre usage. Il est impressionnant de légèreté tout en restant super confortable pour le porteur et pour le petit à condition de bien le régler. Le vrai plus, c’est qu'il se replie presque à plat, ce qui est génial pour le ranger dans le coffre déjà plein. Le pare-soleil intégré est super pratique et se déploie en deux secondes. Seul petit bémol : l'espace de rangement est un peu limité si on veut emporter tout le matériel de puériculture, mais pour des randos à la journée, c'est le top. Bref, la qualité Osprey est au rendez-vous. Je recommande sans hésiter !

This is an incredible piece of gear if you love hiking, and so does your baby. Our toddler is a 15kg heavyweight champion and they were a happy hiker for good long 45-60min walks throughout the trails. We took short snackie breaks, obviously. The backpack has enough pockets for you to be handsfree, and a super nice sunshade tucked in if its a harsh sunny day. We traveled through the Canadian Rockies with it and absolutely loved it! BY THE WAY the color name (Deep Peyto) of this backpack is actually from Peyto Lake (in Banff) and I can 100% confirm it is exactly the same color as the lake. I went there to make sure Osprey wasn't fooling us so that you don't have to :D Quality is unmatched. It is as good as, or better than, Deuter. Happy Hiking!

We couldn’t be happier with the Osprey Poco LT! It’s incredibly lightweight yet sturdy, making it perfect for long walks and hikes without feeling bulky. The comfort level is top-notch—both for us as parents and for our baby. She was so cozy in it that she even fell asleep without a single fuss, which says a lot! The storage compartments are super handy, allowing us to carry everything we need without an extra bag. And the built-in sun visor is a game-changer—it provides great protection and peace of mind on sunny days. This carrier has truly exceeded our expectations. If you're looking for a reliable, comfortable, and well-designed baby carrier, we couldn’t recommend the Poco LT enough!

Perfect carrier for young children. Comfortable for the parent and for the child. I would highly recommend this baby carrier.
