I am a first time Mom and my baby girl is 6 weeks old. I was looking for something to soothe her during her fussy times...usually in the evening. Well...she absolutely loves this swing. We mostly use it in glide mode (which is simple to switch back and forth from). She likes to just hang out in it and look around and if she is tired she goes to sleep pretty quickly. She looks so comfortable in it...I wish I had one for me.
Our friends loaned us a swing when we first got home but it was too fast and rough. This is great on the slowest mode and I imaging as she gets a bit older we can use the faster speeds.
Plug in is great...save on batteries!

I bought this about a month ago for my 4 1/2 month old daughter and she loves it. I like this swing because it's really sturdy- the base has a front and back while other swings I looked at didn't have that. The color goes well for either boy or girl also. Another thing I love is that I can plug it in and I don't have to worry about wasting battery pack after battery pack. It's a really great feature. Like the name suggests, it's more than a swing but also a glider which is pretty cool, my daughter likes the change up every once in a while. I would've given it 5 stars instead of 4 but the mobile on the swing seemed a bit too simple. It looks like that part of the swing had more potential to entertain baby but well- it fell a little short. Overall, I would recommend this swing. It's sturdy, safe, enjoyable, and has cool little features.

I just absolutely LOVE this swing! We have been putting my son in it since he was 2 weeks old, and it never fails to put him straight to sleep! His favorite is the glider selection. We looked at a lot of swings, read plenty of reviews, and decided on this swing.
The selling points of this swing are mainly the fact that you can plug it in (saves a TON of money on batteries!) and that it has two types of swinging action- the regular swing mode and a glider swing mode. it also reclines enough for our newborn, and he didn't need an extra head support, it comes with one! The lowest speed is PLENTY fast and strong, it's all we've used so far. Any time he gets fussy, we just plop him in and he falls instantly asleep! It's a must-have swing!

First let me tell you we are expecting Baby # 6 in just a few weeks and this was the last thing on our list that we needed! I searched store to store looking for the right swing and I am thrilled with this one and I know it will be perfect for the baby!We have used the battery operated ones in the past which eat up batteries...and I have not been able to find the old Wind Up ones which we thought worked just as great! The colors are very cute...practical for either a baby boy or girl( light green, light blue, and peach)...it can work on batteries ( 4 size D) or you can plug it in to your wall outlet and not use any batteries at all!!! Which sold me right away! I put this together myself...no husband required...easy to follow instructions. It has two modes for swinging...one is the standard back and forth swinging mode and you can also put it on a Glider mode...which I think I like much better! Imagine yourself on a glider swing and how comfortable it is...this is sure to put your little one right to sleep. It plays like 16 different songs...traditional as well as relaxing spa music. Has a removable tray, and a slide away mobile. I think this really is the Perfect Swing!!!!

After we saw how much our baby liked her swing downstairs, I wanted to get a different one for our upstairs room.
The glide option is great, and so is the fact that it plugs in. I like the mobile that moves out of the way, but it would be nice if it were motorized and moved or something other than just dangling above her head. I also wish it came in other colors since this one is kinda boy-ish.
The swing does not go slow enough, so we have to drape a blanket or something over it to slow it down (it even suggests doing this in the manual!). It's also pretty noisy, and it takes up a lot of space.
Other than that though, the baby likes it!

We bought this swing mainly because of the fact that it plugs into the wall instead of having to have batteries. It is definitely the best investment that we made in baby gear. My 3 month old son LOVES it! When he's tired, he likes it in Glider mode, and when he's awake and ready to look around, he likes the Swing mode. I love being able to switch back and forth depending on his mood. I would definitely recommend this swing to anyone!

We received this as a gift when our first baby was 6 weeks. It worked like a charm with soothing him or putting him to sleep. Our second child does not like this swing. I've owned this swing for almost 2 years.

Stuff I don't like:
- Relining the seat takes practice. (There are 2 large buttons that need to be pushed in, on either side of the seat, at the same time. Meanwhile you also manipulate the seat into pos 1 or pos 2)
- The mobile doesn't do anything.
- The tray's base that is attached to the seat (Newborn's legs do not sit comfortably. It's unnatural to put them in the seat and then separate their snug legs to fit around the base)

Stuff I do like:
- Seat cover is easy to remove and wash
- Mobile moves out of the way (Great with an over stimulated baby)
- The tray is an extra security (Knowing they are secure and safe you can fall back asleep at night)
- Music stops after 15 min or so (By that time the baby is asleep anyway. At night, I would not want it going non-stop. During the day, I can turn it back on)
- The fabric is gender neutral

Stuff you should know:
It says there are 16 songs. You have the choice of these 8 songs that play continuously or another set of 8 songs that play continuously. There are 2 volume choices. Low or High.

I can clearly say that this swing is great the motor is quiet, the music is clear and clean sounding not tinny. And the padding is so easy to remove, clean, and to reattach. Babys love this thing, it's the next best thing to rocking them yourself.

This swing is so cool. I like the gliding option, which was more suitable for my tiny baby. He loves it and never gets bored of it. It does a wonderful job putting him to sleep. I also like the plug-in system, you don't have to worry about batteries or their cost. The music is quite soothing as well. Sometimes I put my baby to bed and he won't sleep, so I just play the music for him, and he immediately stops crying! Couldn't be more satisfied with my purchase (especially that I a only paid $60 and got free shipping at babies r us!)

After about 2 weeks of use, this swing got weaker and weaker until it wouldn't swing at all, even with brand new batteries. What a waste! It's cute, but worthless. I was upset that I'd spent over $100 on something that stopped working almost immediately.
