Bjorn mini is a narrow based carrier. Classic cheap easy and good you can't have all three.... Cheap or cheaper.... But not that good in the long run I've never had my son world facing , personally. Tula free to grow is a good solid workhorse carrier that is built to last and doesn't need an insert under a certain weight like lillebaby essentials does. Kinderpack is a good one that's more based on child's pants size than it is minimum suggested weight. Sturdy. And made in Illinois, not far from st Louis Missouri.
And a woman owned small business.... So supporting a made in America woman owned business. All these carriers mentioned ( lillebaby , tula, kinderpack) hold good resale value, so you can find them used in good or extremely good condition at decent prices in local groups among local moms and on things like mercari as well
( I just noticed that you're across the pond 🤦.... Well, kinderpack I'm pretty sure does ship across the pond. ....) I know beco Gemini is a reccomended structured carrier, I'm not sure where it's based out of but it's a pretty reputable carrier and trusted by many babywearing educators and those well knowledgeable often suggest that one
Lenny lamb is a tried and true carrier company. They have a lightweight carrier called Lenny light
See if you have a local sling library (do slings and carriers) then you can try out what would be best for you x
I love the Tula explore It can be used as a backwards and forward facing and you can carry them on your back too And lots of nice patterns
