Baby Sling Ring-style, adjustable length. Used a few times during the newborn period. It was a gift, and the tag says "ma-cocco." Please check the web for instructions as there are no manuals. There are no noticeable stains, but upon close inspection, there may be slight fading and signs of use from washing. However, the material is such that it's not very noticeable. No carrying bag is included; only the sling will be shipped.
