Frequently Asked Questions
Deuter suits its Kid Comfort carriers to children from about nine months, once they can sit upright without help. The upper limit is a child of 18 kg plus 4 kg of baggage. Every child develops differently, so go by sitting ability rather than age.
The Kid Comfort Active is the lightest at 2,680 g. The Kid Comfort, 3,230 g, adds the ventilated Aircomfort back, a sun roof and a larger chin pad. The Kid Comfort Pro, 3,550 g, adds a fixed canopy, a mirror and a removable day pack.
Yes. All three Kid Comfort carriers adjust across a 44 to 58 cm back length and suit adults from 158 to 195 cm tall, so most couples can share one. Re-adjust the back length and hip belt each time you swap.

When is a child ready?
Deuter suits these carriers to children from about nine months, once they can sit upright without help. That milestone matters more than age. Keep walks short at first, check on your passenger often, and add the KC Chin Pad for a sleeping head.
Walking with a child in Australia
Shade and water come first. In Queensland summer or on an exposed coastal track, plan early starts, use the sun roof or canopy, and dress your child for being still while you work hard. Short loops in Lamington or the Blue Mountains make good first walks.
