What we say about it...

The Beco Gemini is a great carrier.

I love it as a second carrier to have around for the early months and for those times when baby wants to front face carry.

Our son is now 22 pounds and I am finding it isn't the most comfortable for longer walks and the lack of sleep hood is quite annoying on those sunny days.  Overall however this carrier is very sturdy and quite the keeper.

I can easily nurse my son in it, the straps are super easy to adjust due to the placement of them (you adjust by pulling up from the base of the carrier as opposed to down from the pits like in the Ergo).

My son loves this carrier and if he had his way he would still be riding in it.  However we have now switched to a wider based carrier.

The base of the carrier seems to lack the width that the other carriers have,  but if your not intending on carrying your child past a year and a half (or about a year for taller kids) then this would suite you just fine.

Overall this carrier is a great buy and recommended in your baby wearing stash for those that really want a front facing carrier option.
