I have a really good one from Simply Mei tai - http://www.simplymeitai.co.uk/
The quality is amazing, I got it really quick and they are just oh so pretty. Plus if you chat with the girl who makes them, she will alter the design to your preferences. I needed a toddler sized one with extra long straps

Ooo I used a maya tie which was gorgeous, I loved it. This is a link to it: http://www.littlepossums.co.uk/slings/soft-slings.htm I had it in the stripes. Didn't get it from that site though. It was very comfortable, but I have a scoliosis so had to stop wearing Michael. He is a huge baby though, and the maya tie was lovely to wear.

Not a mei tai but I also have a Pikkolo which is one of the buckle carriers. It's on that link Gingerpig posted. It is brilliant and so easy

I used a wilkinet, (also on the link from gingerpig!) with Marianne whos now 10! I also used it with Aeryn and Willow. Its fantastic for newborns one of the best ive treid, especially when out and about - the head support is great. I found it a bit too uncomfortable though when babies started to get heavier-that could just be my buggered back though!! :iconredface:

A big thumbs up for the lovely Kerry at Ocah & Maria at SMT, they are both talented mamas, but busy though so you need to get on the waiting lists
Natasha do you have a Sling Meet going near you?
I know I have tried alot
of different MT's & found some worked for us & some didn't
