VERY strong & sturdy. Highly Recommend. VERY strong & sturdy product. I was concerned about holding my kids weight, so I tested this with my wife prior to use. The packaging says 50lb limit, but it seemed to hold my 115lb wife with zero issues as well! The real surprise was how much stress this takes off the rest of your body. It genuinely does displace the weight evenly to make carrying effortless. Also super easy to use and comfortable to wear.

My piggyback rider came much more… My piggyback rider came much more quickly than expected, which was much appreciated as it was a gift. My brother and his son are beside themselves, they love it so much. They have been going for long walks every day. My brother says the weight distribution on his back is perfect.

I received it really fast I received it really fast, and it works great, my almost 3 year old loves it, walking around at the ballgame and hiking.

Early Impression My daughter is at the upper end of the weight capacity, she is 4 but not ready to tackle full hikes yet. The pack part is comfortable even with 38lbs riding. I really like that she is right in my ear telling me about everything she sees, it’s a pretty cool experience to be at eye level and just talking. 2 negatives I see: I wish there was a Velcro piece or something to stow the bar when she’s off so it’s not just bouncing off my rear, and a wider bar so her feet could go outside my hips/ obliques would make a comfortable wear as well. Overall great product.

Long hikes with a 4 year old The Piggyback Rider has made a world of difference when hiking with my 4 year old. It allows us to go on longer hikes where she can get off and on easily when she gets tired. I highly recommend getting the hip belt attachment. It really helped to distribute my child’s weight evenly across my shoulders and hips. The customer service is also spot on. They respond quickly and will help you get what you need. The entire company deserves a 10/10 rating. Keep up the amazing work.
