Win a Chicco Smart Support Backpack

chicco-smart-support-220pix.jpgCan you tell Olivia is more than happy to take a ride in her Chicco Smart Support Backpack? The minute we slip her into it, she breaks out into smiles and kicks her little feet with excitement.

Since Olivia doesn’t like to miss out on anything, she is thrilled to be hoisted into the air and watch the action from her perch on Daddy’s back!

My husband, who for some strange reason resists wearing wraps or slings, prefers to carry our kids in a backpack.

When Jackson was three, Phil borrowed our friend’s backpack and hiked up Diamond Head on Oahu with Jackson on his back. So when I saw Chicco makes a very affordable backpack carrier, I thought it would be great to try out so Olivia can have a turn to go hiking with Daddy.

But Olivia loves it so much, Phil even puts her in the Smart Support Backpack to tote her around while he does chores! If she is fussy or bored, he buckles her into the Smart Support and she is good to go!

We brought the Smart Support up to my family’s cabin last month and Olivia got to be the test baby while I got Phil and our friends, Crystal and Sean, to all give me their opinion on the Chicco Smart Support Backpack. Olivia thought it was wonderful to get to ride all afternoon while each one of them took a turn carrying her. (Sean is carrying Olivia in this picture.)

So what did our test group think of the Chicco Smart Support Backpack?

Everyone agreed that it was a good, lightweight carrier that was super easy and convenient to use.

The light aluminum frame opens up to form a stable stand for easily loading and unloading your child. This freestanding feature enables the wearer to safely load and unload baby without any help.

The sun shield, quick zip ventilated rain guard, fanny pack and cell phone case are all great features too.

chicco-smart-support-2.jpgThe height-adjustable seat supports the child as they grow and appears comfortable – Olivia has no complaints. I also like that the the straps hold her in securely.

Our three adult testers found it reasonably comfortable. They thought some improvements could be made with the straps. Phil, Sean and Crystal all vary in size and each one thought the small strap that goes across the chest would be more useful if it were adjustable and could slide up and down since they all had a different preference for where they wanted it. As well, they thought that the lumbar support could be improved if it were slightly lower and gave more support.

The general consensus was that for the price, this was a good backpack carrier with nice features that children between 6-36 months will love!

Product Features

  • Three-position, height-adjustable seat to support your child as they grow
  • Lightweight, aluminum frame, weighs only 6.5 lbs!
  • Padded straps and energy-absorbing lumbar padding to keep you cool and comfortable
  • Zip-quick weather shield to protect your baby from the weather
  • Freestanding and stable to make loading and unloading virtually effortless
  • Flat-fold to make storing and transporting easy

The Smart Support is for children between 6-36 months and up to 40 pounds.

  56. I was just going to start researching baby backpacks! With another one on the way, I went into our baby stash and remembered our sad, well used backpack that gave me splitting tension headaches because it did such a poor job distributing weight. Well, due to the cost, we always made due, but as I was fiddling with it, one of the straps finally gave up the ghost! Thanks for the amazing give-away 🙂

  214. This would be perfect for carrying my 17month old to the grocery store and back. It is a 1+ mile walk each way and I would have more space in the wagon for groceries!

    Reply

  218. I’d love to win this for my growing little guy. He’s just too big and wiggly to put into a soft carrier anymore, and I miss the convenience of being hands free. Would be great for the zoo too!

  232. My daughter is 1 and we are rugged campers in the Adirondacks, and I have been trying to find the perfect backpack to wear for our hikes up some mountains. I would love to have her join us on our hikes, but the backpack I have is VERY uncomfortable and a yard sale purchase. I have heard wonderful things about this pack and would love to be able to have one. I just want my family to hike as a group and not leave the baby behind with a babysitter.

  236. We would get A LOT of use out of the Chicco Smart Support. We are an outdoorsy family and I wear our little girl every day. We have another one on the way and this would be perfect for my guy. It looks like it would be cool and comfortable, and having the baby be protected from the rain in unexpected downpours (like the one we actually got caught in the day before yesterday…lol) would be a bonus !

    Reply

  238. Oh my Little girl loves to ride on my back this would just make things 10 times more easier Thanks!

    Reply

  241. What little one doesn’t like to be carried and to be carried at your height?! These are fabulous!! Either the newest baby (when it is big enough of course) or my Jakey would be perfect for this. My oldest, since he would love to be included in this, who is 16 would be perfect to carry Jakey since I am pregnant and can’t wear it just yet… So all 3 kids can benefit!!

  423. My hubby is resistant to the ring sling and sleepy wrap that I have. This would be great for him to wear our Miss Pea. I think this would be great for the both of them! Thanks for the chance to win1

  435. My daughter just turned one (yesterday!) and loves to be outside. This would be great for summer adventures that we go on. I love the sun shade too as she refuses to wear a hat. 🙂

  437. I’ve got a front carrier for my daughter and she is getting too big for it. She loves it but my back doesn’t. This would be perfect!

  440. I would love one of these. I couldn’t afford to purchase 2 so if I won one I’d only need to purchase one more. Fingers crossed.

  442. This looks fun! We have a new baby coming in a few weeks, and a 2 year old (5 year old too, but she wold be too big!). So we can definitely use something like this, DH would love it!

  444. This would be fabulous for our 9 month old–he loves to be up high and see all that we see. Thanks for hosting this! 🙂

  445. I would love this. I have very cheap one from a yard sale but it is just about too small for my 25 lb 10 mo old and it has no sun shade. I am all over the shade!!!

  449. I know my twin boys would love to be carted around in this. Thanks,

  466. We are heading to South America this fall for some traveling and this would be perfect for my dd. Where we are headed the stoller simply wouldn’t work. This would be great to win!

    Reply

  467. This would be so cool to win!! When ever we go for walks we pull out the stroller but this would be great to use too!! It would be perfect for my 14 month old on our camping trip this summer.

    Reply

  468. Oooh me please! My mom used to have a backpack like this when we were kids and I would love to have one now! My 2yo is getting a little heavy for my mei tai, the extra support would be wonderful! (I linked you!)

    Reply

  471. This would be a wonderful way to include our daughter in our love of hiking! I love the sun/rain shade!

    Reply

  472. i wonder if my husband would prefer this one – he’s not a huge fan of the mei tai, although he’ll wear it.

    Reply

  474. this would be great . i love to go on hikes and i have 2 kids one still wants me to hold her but she is big enough to walk on her own but the other cant walk so i have to hold him. i would love something like this.

    Reply

  480. This sounds like a great product. My husband hates the sling so this would work great for our new addition coming soon!

    Reply

  482. My brother would love this. I think that backpacks are just a little more manly than slings. Pick me!!

    Reply

  486. I would love one of these! this would be perfect for our 16 month old! What a great giveaway! thanks!

    Reply

  488. Oh my gosh! My son Noah would LOVE this… and don’t even get me started on how much I would love it. GREAT giveaway. Now I just have to start visualizing me winning it!! THANK YOU!! 🙂

  489. Hey yay!! So excited for this giveaway. I didn’t know they even made a baby backpack. Awesome! Thanks!

    Reply

  490. Amazingly my 2 year old is still small enough for this and we are expecting another this summer so we would put it to great use.

    Reply

  498. Oh man!! I wish I would have seen this before I got my hubby his father’s day present. I would love to win this for him!!

    Reply

  504. this would be great for my six month old. we go up to our grandparents cabin and it;s so hard pushing a stroller through twigs. this would help

    Reply

  505. This would be so great to carry my 8 mo. son on hikes, or even just daily while running after my 3 y.o.! I’ve had my eye on a backpack for a while now.

    Reply

  506. OH I would love to win that! I have been looking for something great for my husband for father’s day, and that would be just perfect !And he would love it even more if I could tell him it was a free prize!!!

    Reply

  508. Wow, would this be great for our trip to the other side of the U.S. in september! Nice! My little girl would love this, and I bet it would be great for the airport and for walks…

    Reply

  509. This is a great idea, i though these devices were much more expensive than this. My daughter loves to be carried up in the air, she would really like this carrier.

    Reply

  510. This looks like the perfect contraption for when my son outgrows his Baby Bjorn which he loves. He’s already 19 pounds at 4 months, so we’re getting close.

    Reply

  511. My husband would be all over that!! He’s a hiker and can’t WAIT to get our son (who’s almost 7 mos.) out in the woods! He, too, refuses to use the slings, but has become a fan of the baby bjorn but has commented so many times how much he wished he had a backpack to carry Micah in when he’s working in the yard, etc. PLUS, June 26th is our anniversary – what a GREAT gift it would be for our little family! 🙂

    Reply

  512. this one looks great!! i love the cover…perfect for the summer sun and heat! my little one loves the front carrier and i know she would love to be on her daddy’s back in one of these!

    Reply

  513. That is so neat! I have never seen one with such a cool cover over the baby. That will be perfect for summer hikes and out door craft fairs. We are always having such a hard time driving the stroller through the crowds. This would be perfect. Thanks for the find. And the contest!

    Reply

  514. I know my little one will be as happy as Olivia. She loves riding on dad’s shoulders. This will be great!

    Reply

  515. Oh my land, this would be great to win! Just this Tuesday I took the kids to the park…the park that is 4 kms away. My 4 month old was in the snuggly while the 2 year old was in the stroller. It would be so much better to have the Chicco Smart Support Backpack and save my back this summer! Thanks for such a great giveaway!

    Reply

  520. Wow. I’ve been trying to talk the hubster into buying us one of these for our son. He thinks it a good idea but it costs too much. I’m happy to be entered in a drawing to win one.
    YAY!

    Reply

  522. Oh boy! I am so excited about this giveaway! My husband and I love to hike, but have been unable to afford a pack for our little one. We could definitely put this prize to good use:)

    Thanks for the giveaway! Keeping my fingers crossed that I am lucky winner:)

    Reply

  524. Looks great! I use a wrap but my hubby would love to cart our little ones around in this!

    Reply

  527. That would be AWESOME!! Seriously, I was just pricing these today to use w/ my 13 month old. He’s so fair-skinned, I wanted the shade, as well as my dh is hopeful for one. Thank you for this opportunity!!

    Reply

  529. Oh wow! This would come in so handy as my hubby is of the variety that’s not so keen on the sling/wrap/pack thing too!
    Will post on my blog hopefully this evening!

    Reply

  531. My husband would totally love this. He will use the front carrier but complains that he looks like a girl wearing it. He has even said I wish we had a backback type carrier many of times.

    Reply

  533. I have a girlfiend who has this exact carrier and they love it. Its great for the price. We have one made by a different company but we love it. Its great when your baby is too big for a front carrier but still unable to walk around for a full day. Once your baby gets bigger and wants to walk some and be carried some you can keep it on your back without the baby in it and it works great. We like it for places where its hard to get access. When we were in Germany for a while it was great because elevators are far and few between. Good luck everyone!

    Reply

  534. My husband is the same way, he doesn’t like using the slings. This would be great for him. I know he would love wearing her around on his back. Thanks!

    Reply

  535. We live right near the gorgeous mountains and would love to go hiking. Problem is we can’t afford a backpack. This would be so awesome to have.

    Reply

  536. This sounds great. I’m addicted to baby carriers (slings, pouches, backpacks, etc.) so I’d love to add this to my collection. 🙂

    Reply

  538. i have two expecting friends and this would make the perfect gift!
    thanks!

  541. As the mother of a 10m old and a 2 1/2 yr old, I would love to have something that makes toting the 10m along easier when her brother wants to do everything ‘me-self’

  542. Oooooh, this looks wonderful!!! Would LOVE to win this for my first time mom, friend!! 😀 Thanks girls!!

    Reply

  543. I love the hood/cover! That’s the only problem I have with the backpack we have now. Since we are going to have 4 kids aged 5 and under in November, this would really help us out a lot.

    Thanks for hosting this great contest!

  544. I have always wanted one of these wonderful devices… but could never justify the cost…but now you are featuring the affordable version… THANK YOU!
