Which would you choose and why?
They're about the same price over here and appear to do the same kind of thing. I'm planning to wear baby #2 a lot as I will have a toddler to see to as well.
Advice and ideas welcome

I don't have an Ergo 360, but did have a classic Ergo. The lumbar support on a lillebaby (which I just got several months ago) is UNBELIEVABLE. Seriously. I sold my Ergo because I realistically was never going to use it again, ha!
-
Classic Ergo wearer here! We loved it, it was safe and comfortable, gave her great neck strength... and was the only way she would sleep (!)
-
I'm sold on lille for the lumbar support. After trying my friends lille I sold my ergo and my tula
-
I love me Lille! The lumbar support is great. It's so comfortable to wear.
-
Love my 360.
-
I really dislike my Ergo, and would love something else, so I vote Lille on that alone.
-
Ooooh, Lille is winning! I hadn't even considered other brands. We had a second hand, cheap carrier with E and I was so certain I wanted a good carrier this time and, in my mind, good = Ergo. It was DH who discovered the Lillebaby....

@coopsmama: What don't you like about it?
-
@Cherrybee: I hate the newborn insert. It's a serious PITA and runs warm and I've had summer babies so it's not been ideal. It's uncomfortable, too - something about it just puts pressure on my back in a weird way and I've had it looked at/adjusted and nothing has helped.
-
@Cherrybee: I think Lille is more versatile but they're both good carriers!
-
Lille!

When I was pregnant w LO2, I knew I wanted a better baby carrier and I kind of obsessed over making the right decision. In the end, I got a Lille and now I've bought a second. I have an Airflow and an Embossed.
Lille just seemed to have everything I wanted--no infant insert needed (I've had two summer babies), narrow and wide seats, ergonomic forward facing option, and cool fabrics because I am always hot. The last thing that sealed the deal for me is that the ergo 360 has a Velcro waist and the Lille has a clip--I worried that if the baby fell asleep and I wanted to take them off, the loud rip of the Velcro would wake them.
Anyway, I've been happy with my Lille so far but I recommend trying a few in store or through a lending library because it's kind of personal preference. My husband claims to prefer the original "baby dangling" baby bjorn because he thinks the Lillebaby is too complicated. I don't think it's complicated at all and think he's being deliberately obtuse. All I know is that the Lille has been magic for sleeping for LO2.

@Anagram: Our first carrier was a dangler. I didn't know that was even a thing until well after E grew out of it! I was worried my DH was going to be difficult about this (spending big money on "some imaginary problem I got from the internet") but he did his research and he found the Lille. It means he can override my decision with his infinite wisdom
while I still get what I want in a carrier - total win all round! -
I love my Lillebaby! I could use it at 2 weeks and I got the Air so it's nice and breathable.
-
Thank you all so much for your advice and votes. We just bought our Lillebaby! We got the Tokidoki one - squee doesn't even cut it! I'm so excited!
-
I didn't have a Lillie; I had the Ergo 360 and I liked it! Tho I've sold it now since DD is past needing to forward face so I wear her mostly for naps.
