4.0 out of 5 stars Baby has love/hate relationship with mobile, May 4, 2007

By 

E. P. (Cambridge, MA) - See all my reviews

When we put together our nursery we bought a very charming little mobile with a wind-up mechanism. The baby loved it, but she began to start screaming when the music stopped after about a minute. I found myself constantly winding the thing in order to keep her quiet, which seemed to defeat the purpose of the mobile. These Symphony-in-Motion mobiles seem to be some of the only battery-operated mobiles out there. Compared to our other little mobile, it is huge and garish. It is also kind of sinister looking because the way it moves and the black-and-white spirals on it give it the appearance of a 1950's brainwashing tool. I don't know if that description makes sense, but if you saw it you would understand.

When the baby is in a good mood she can be transfixed by the mobile for about 5 or 6 minutes. Then she starts screaming. If she is in a bad mood she whimpers and won't even look at it. When I put her to sleep I try to keep the mobile as far from her line of vision as possible, because it is too stimulating and will keep her up. This isn't easy, because it's enormous.

Although I don't like how it looks I'm holding on to it because I have a feeling that the mobile will ultimately be capable of yielding 10-15 minutes of baby bliss. At only 2 months, it's understandable that the baby would be a little freaked out by it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Make sure it fits your crib, August 19, 2007

By

This mobile looks neat, but make sure it fits your crib before you buy it. The control panel is made to hang off of the railing in your baby's crib, but if your railing is to thick, then you will not be able to secure it to the crib.

If you want to see what I'm talking about, look at the picture of the mobile. Go down to the control pad and just above it you can see a yellow hanger that goes over the railing. You need to have a railing that is small enough to let the unit hang on top, while also letting you screw the panel on in the back.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quirky, FUNctional and durable!, July 25, 2006

By 

Fiona Bessey-Bushnell "tnsconz" (VA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Tiny Love Symphony in Motion Farm Animal Mobile (Styles May Vary) (Baby Product)

This mobile is great! It is age appropriate, FUNctional and not a clone of all the other "whimsical" mobiles that are out there. This quirky one fit the bill for us. Our baby loves it! After he could reach it, we removed the mobile portion and he still listens to the music. And since the buttons are easy to press, he can turn it on himself! I guess this feature could also be considered a drawback!;)

In my opinion the bright colors would be appropriate for a boy or a girl (the animals do have pink accents but not an overwhelming amount). We were a little concerned that our baby would have a somewhat distorted understanding of animals since the animals look so funky - definitely not the traditional Old Macdonald stuff! But that doesn't seem to be a problem and he was mesmerized by it, so that works for me! The batteries last a long time and the volume control is another nice feature. Also, the classical music has a relatively good sound quality.

This was also very durable, because even with moving the "arm" of the mobile around several times a day and my baby pulling on the animals before we moved it out of his reach, all was still well on the farm!
