It also has many convenience and comfort features, including the air-tight Dream drape that pulls out of canopy and attaches to the car seat quietly for security.
Our test baby was perfectly in the urbn at 3 months, and has plenty of space to expand. He's still a bit small for the top harness slot, however, he's close to surpassing the size of the urbn due to weight and height, and has almost an inch of headroom left in the size at present.
