When you're choosing a baby carrier or sling, the big question is whether you need a structured seat for an older baby or a simpler fabric sling for a newborn. Two adjustable options sit at slightly different price points: the AXEARTE Baby Sling Carrier for Toddler, Adjustable Hip Seat Carrier for Babies 12-45 Lbs, and the Grey Adjustable Baby Sling Carrier Newborn Toddler. Both are sold as new, but they take different approaches.
Quick verdict
If you're shopping for a toddler and want a carrier that gives more structure, the AXEARTE option is the right call. If you prefer something simpler, the Grey Adjustable Baby Sling is a solid pick.

Where the AXEARTE Hip Seat Carrier wins
The AXEARTE has a built-in seat, making it a good match for carrying a toddler who can sit. The title explicitly calls out a seat and gives a weight range, so it's easy to see if it's meant for your child. It's listed as new, with AXEARTE as the brand and a UPC.
Where the Grey Adjustable Baby Sling wins
This sling is the lower-priced option of the two. It's a sling-style carrier rather than a carrier with a built-in seat, which is an important distinction if you want a structured seat for your toddler.
Product notes
AXEARTE Baby Sling Carrier for Toddler, Adjustable Hip Seat Carrier
This AXEARTE carrier has an adjustable hip seat, so a toddler has a supported place to sit while being carried. The title lists a 12-45 lb weight range, which is helpful if you're buying for a specific weight. It's marked as new and has a UPC. At the listed price, it's the higher-priced of the two options. The 12-45 lb range means it's aimed at babies who are at least 12 pounds, so it may not fit a newborn in the earliest weeks. If a hip seat is your priority, this is the one to choose.
Grey Adjustable Baby Sling Carrier Newborn Toddler
This grey cotton sling is listed at the lower price of the pair. It's intended for newborn-to-toddler use, and the buckle closure makes it easy to put on and take off. It can be machine washed and tumbled dry on low, which is helpful for daily messes. The design includes thickened shoulder straps and a wider waist belt to distribute weight across the abdomen, waist, and shoulders. If you're after a hip seat, though, this sling doesn't have one, so it's best for parents who want a fabric sling-style carrier rather than a structured seat.
Final choice by use case
For a toddler who will benefit from a built-in seat, the AXEARTE Baby Sling Carrier for Toddler is the one to pick.
For a simpler carrier that works from the early months, the Grey Adjustable Baby Sling Carrier is a solid alternative.
