    The product, in the report: Giant Progeny BS-2 Child Carrier BTSC0710 PO#GU318 227C/23809

    RE: Giant Progeny BS-2 Child Carrier (for bike)

    This product does not hold my child in place. It is a 3 point harness and the base of the harness is inches from the trunk/groin area, causing my child to slide forward and down while riding, the shoulder straps to dig into his neck, and his helmet to catch on the back of the seat as he slides down. Now that he is a little bigger/older I have observed that he still slides forward, the shoulder straps (still) cannot be made snug enough for him to not be able to wiggle his way out of them -I guess because the base of the harness is inches out from his groin.

    I purchased the carrier on June 9, 2011. I called the manufacturer, Giant, on September 27, 2011 (my child was 13 months at that time) to explain my concerns about the safety of this product and was told they would not replace or refund the item, and if I wanted to try to take it back to the store where I purchased it I could try that. The store I purchased it at said they would not take it back and the owner said he had the same carrier for his son and had the same issues I do and that “I should just put pillows all around my child to try and keep him in place”...

    Because it is unsafe, we generally do not ride. Because I was ‘stuck with it’, we try to ride periodically -hopeful he may grow into it. This did not result in any more secure fitting or safety, just an older baby who is better at getting out of the ill-fitting shoulder straps WHILE WE RIDE, or simply communicating his discomfort of sliding forward/ having straps dig into his neck, and saying, “Home Mommy”.
