RE: What is different between the KK pouch and a Hotsling?
The biggest difference is that a hotsling is non-adjustable and a KK pouch is adjustable (has snaps). IMO, it is key for a pouch to fit properly and snugly or you will end up with a backache, and that is sometimes hard to achieve with a non-adjustable pouch unless you make it yourself. With an adjustable pouch, you order the right size range and just use the snap setting that works for you. You also have the flexibility to use different snap settings for different carrying positions (more of an issue when you plan to use a pouch for a newborn through toddlerhood, less so when you start using a pouch for a toddler).
