My favorite baby swing.

5

This creative baby swing for Fisher-Price has saved me a ton of sanity through two babies. I was never much of a baby accessories person and did no think that I would ever use a swing for my little ones. When I received this swing as a gift for my first baby shower, it went right into the storage and I did not give it too much thought. Fast forward to when baby was a couple of months old and I realized that carrying her everywhere was not going to work out for house cleaning and other tasks. I broke this swing out and easily assembled it myself. The first time that I put baby in it, she did not make a peep for almost two hours. The songs and motion of the swing was more soothing to her than anything I had tried. the different swing directions are a brilliant idea, and it is so easy to wash the seat cover if there is ever an accident! I love that it can be plugged in to save battery life, and also how collapsible it is when I want to hide it away.

Great Baby Swing

My daughter loved this swing so much. We bought everything in the rain forest jungle theme to keep things neutral since we knew we wanted to have another child after her. I am very glad we went with the Fisher Price line of rain forest products. They have all shown to be durable and really good quality. This swing is one of my favorite products from them. This swing is capable of swinging side to side or front to back giving you more options and variation for your baby. The seat has two recline positions and there is a three point harness that will keep your baby secure. The features that made mereally happy with my purchase were the things that made it unique. The mobile is one of those features. My daughter thought it was amazing and kept her entertained all the time. The mobile moves in and out from the center to create a "peek-a-boo" action for baby. The mobile can also be swung off to the side making it easier to get your baby in and out of the swing. This swing has twelve different songs that can be played in addition to nature sounds. My daughter really liked the nature sounds the most, so we hardly played the music. Another nice thing about this swing is that it can be operated on D batteries or by using the included AC adapter plug. Making it flexible in where you are able to use it.

My parents said they wanted to buy one baby item that I think my kids would like to keep at their house. I recommended this swing and my parents purchased this swing. This swing is very versatile. The seat can swing front to back or you can rotate and swing side by side. There is also different sounds you can set the swing to. There is also a mobile that rotates in a circle and moves. A really great feature of this swing is that is can be battery operated or plugged into the wall. My parents have a pool and we bring the swing in and out of the house. It is easy to fold up and transport. The seat on the swing adjusts to sitting straight up to laying down. All three of my kids sat very comfortable in this swing. Great product Durability We have one had this swing at my parents house for the last six years. We use this swing inside and outside and take down to the beach in the summer. Ease of Use The swing is very easy to program. There is a dial and you select speed, song, and motion.

Love this swing!

When I had my first child I could never get him to sleep in his bed. This swing was a life saver! He was the type of baby that loved to be held and rocked. When I put him in this swing he would stay quiet. He loved the music and the mobile on it. I could fold it up when not in use and store it in the closet. But he always wanted to sleep in this swing . I bought another one for my second baby. And he has been the same way. Both swings lasted for a long time. The only thing I didn't like was having to buy the batteries. I recommend this swing for any mother. I didn't want it because of the small space in my house but I got it anyways and I was so glad I did. Durability Both swings that I bought like this lasted a long time. Ease of Use It was extremely easy to use! Safety It is very safe. I liked the belt, it made me feel better if I had to walk out of the room for a minute. Features The features are great. My son would always stare at the mobile and fall asleep when I had the music on. I also like that it folds.

Great Swing

5

This is a great swing, my baby loved it and fell asleep in it almost every time we put him in it. I've used other swings before, but the Fisher Price Cradle 'n Swing is awesome because not only does it go back and forth like a basic swing, but it goes side to side, which some babies need. One of my babies would not go to sleep unless he was rocked, I put him in this swing and it worked like a charm. I also really like the fact that this one plugs in. You don't have to worry about replacing batteries; but then it also restricts where you can use it. The hanging toys are neat when your child is little, but as soon as they get bigger, they try to pull them off. But overall, its a great swing to use. Versatility This swing is great because it reclines and you can use it from newborn stage as a cradle, and then as your baby grows, you can adjust the seat and he/she can sit up and swing back and forth. We used this almost the entire first year until our baby was too big for it. (I forget the weight restrictions, sorry!) Durability It has lasted through two babies and seems fine. The buttons for the pre-recorded music and sounds seem to have a mind of its own, but the music still works, you just have to press them a few times. The swing is still in great shape. Ease of Use This swing seems a little wider than some (because it swings from side to side) and you are limited to putting it where you have a plug outlet. It is light enough to move around though, and its pretty easy to use. Its suppose to fold somewhat for storage, that is a little annoying, but doable. Safety The seat was always secure with a seat belt, and I never had any safety concerns. However, as my baby grew older though, he was able to kick the tray off the front and has caused his fingers to get pinched a few times. The tray is suppose to lock in place, but doesn't always do so. My son also always tried to grab the overhead toys which pull down, but you can swing the mobile up and away from the baby as well. Features You have an adjustable reclining seat, a swing that goes back and forth as well as front to back; a moving toy mobile, and a variety of songs from slow to upbeat. What else could you ask for?

I love this swing. I owned this cradle swing, and I also owned the other rain forest swing that wasn't a cradle swing. I preferred this swing over the other one for a smaller baby. The legs on this swing are very sturdy. The colors are bright, and the music is nice. A lot of baby toys have music that's loud and annoying. This music is very soft, and it also has rain forest sounds that are really nice. The swing is a little large so it's not great for small spaces. Durability This swing is very durable. I used it with two children, and both of them used it for about 4 months each. It held up very well, and then I passed it down to a friend. It still works! Safety This swing is very safe as long as the baby can't sit up on their own. Features This swing has music, and it has some toys that hang down from the top of it. The only thing I didn't like about the toys on the top were that they can be removed. My first son had taken them off when he got bigger, and then they couldn't be found when my next son was using it.

Best swing ever!

My son love the toys loved the noise and just loved everything about this swing. And of course I loved it because as it came closer to nap time I could lay him in the swing, turn it on and after about five minutes of playing he would fall asleep. This swing was given to us by a friend and my son was the 5th baby to use it. It took 5 babies before the swing died! Durability 5 babies over 5 years before it died

My Kids Loved It

I loved this swing because of all the different things it does. My daughters would fall asleep in this with no problem. The noises it makes are cute and fun also I love that you can swing your baby 2 different ways. But the absolute best thing about this swing is that you can plug it into the wall so you have no need for batteries and do not have to worry about it stopping while your child is trying to fall asleep. It was the best thing I think that I bought my children. It outlasted my 2 children and I had gave it to a friend and she loved it. This swing was easy to keep clean and you felt safe putting them into it. I could clip them in as I was doing dishes and not have to worry. I highly recommend this to every parent. Versatility This product is light and easy to move. I used it constantly. My daughters loved the noises it made. It would put them to sleep almost instantly when they were tired. This swing was really a time saver. Durability It outlasted my 2 daughters and another child. It is worth the money Ease of Use You can plug it into a outlet or use batteries. So If you wanted to take it outside it is no problem it works anywhere Safety This swing gave me a piece of mind. When you have to do dishes, fold laundry, clean the house ect. you know your child is safe in the swing Features It swings 2 different ways makes noise has the little animals hanging it is everything you want in a swing for your child. It has it all.

They are very handy and you can chose what way you want them to swing on how your baby likes to swing. Durability my kids Used these swings till they was about a year old. The one i had went threw both of my boys. Ease of Use The buttons was easy to read and even easyer to use. i compleatly recommend this swing. My younger sister was able to turn it on but reading the pictures for each button. I absolutly loved using this swing for my kids. Safety They have the straps to buckle them in and the tray to help hold them in. I think they are very safe. Many of my friends use these swing to because they are safe. Features You can switchs the way the swing swings. Has differnt songs it plays, and it even makes diffrent noises.
