This item was received as a hand-me-down. The shoulder straps are missing. I used it from the newborn stage to the weaning period, but I didn't feel the need for shoulder straps, so I used it only with the waist belt. There are some unavoidable scratches and stains, but it can be used without any problems. Please check the images. Shipping will be wrapped in bubble wrap and packing film, so please understand this before purchasing.
