I really like this sling, we have been using it since our baby girl was born and she is really at home in it too.
When she was tiny we used it in the nursing/hamock arrangment, now we mostly use sitting up facing in and I am just getting the hang of sitting up facing out. Grace loves facing out but I find it a bit harder to put her in without her slipping to one side, but I think that is my fault for not getting the straps the same length.
I love the fact that it is so easily adjusted, my partner and I are very different sizes (much easier and quicker to adjust than the baby bjorn). It does hold her very tight to my body, which I like, much better than the baby bjorn where she feels stuck out the front. My partner finds the tightness a little uncomfortable but he is 6ft 4" and to get her head at kissing height as is recomended the adjustable rings are a bit uncomfortable. I think this is due to his height as it is not a problem on me. I wouldn't recomend it for anyone taller than 6ft 4".
Grace is 8kg now and it is still comfortable, it is a great way to hold her when she she just wants to be cuddled, and now she can face out it is a great way for her to be involved in what I am doing

This was sort of a disappointing product in the end. I was excited about it because it looked to be basically the same as the "ultimate baby wrap" that I had been using, but without all of the wrapping steps involved in my other one. It looked to fit the same, wear the same, etc, but only had one step - putting it on and tightening each side. However, after using it several times, I've realized that even though it looks to fit the same and is better in idea, in that the straps just have to be pulled to adjust, it simply does not fit as well as my other one. I don't really like having two separate pieces to use, and it doesn't fit as snugly as the ultimate baby wrap does. When I walk, it has more of a tendency to "bounce" because I cannot get it tight enough on me, without being too tight on baby. to get it to fit snugly enough on the baby, it makes it ride to high on my back, so in general i don't think it is as good...the ultimate baby wrap fits better, but i was hoping this one would allow me the same type wrap but without 9 feet of fabric to have to loop around me...in the end, i have used my old one, even with the hassle of wrapping it just so, in order to get the snug fit - this is a good idea, but needs to be improved...
