Good swing
I got this for my niece and her mom says that the baby really likes this swing. It's durable and easy to clean. It sleeps the baby and keeps her entertained. The plug in saves a lot of batteries!

Great for newborns, and nice for older babies...
I love this swing. Mainly because I can plug it in, no batteries, no having to wake the baby winding it like the older swings(not to mention bumping them on the head). They can swing all night if you want. It says it has five speeds, and as I can tell a difference between them there isn't a whole lot of difference. The speeds it does have works perfectly fine though. I have a two month old and I still leave it on the lowest speed for him, any higher and he sort of freaks out. The thingy that comes down for him to look at isn't really in the best place for him to see it very well, that is a negative, but I just hang other toys from it that light up and stuff. Its better then little stuffed animals anyways. The one other thing that isn't so wonderful is how much is reclines. It has three positions and again their isn't much difference between them. But again I can work with that, i just prop him up with one of those little cushions you use to hold them in place when they sleep in their crib. Basically if your looking for a PERFECT swing, it has its problems, but I gave it five stars cause of the plug in feature. That makes it perfect enough for me. Its best if you intend on your kid swinging a lot (or if he is like mine and thats the only thing he will sit in if he isn't being held).

My girls loved this!
My only complaint is it doesn't recline far enough for a new baby. My daughter loved this! I take monthly pictures in this swing so I am keeping it out untill my daughter turnes one. My older daughter loves it too! Before her sister was born (she was 14 months old) she would get in it on her own and swing. At around 20 months old she climbed in all by herself, turned the swing on and fell asleep. So even though she was about 27 lbs the swing still worked great!

Love this swing
Our baby loves motion and had bad colic for 2 months. This swing was a lifesaver and our daughter loves it. We do not use the attachment with the toys because they didn't captivate our daughter at all. The music is indeed loud but we took another reviewer's advice and put tape over it which made the volume much more pleasant. We love this product and don't know what we would have done without it. Amazon, thank you for shipping this larger item to a military APO address.

Brilliant idea, may be too big for tiny newborns
I wanted this swing for the plug in feature and I like the neutral colors. My baby was born an average 7 1/2 lbs but the swing was too strong for her at first. Her head was fine with a towel roll, but the swing swung too fast or hard. She didn't like it at all. However, now that she is older and bigger (around 9 lbs now), it's perfect. The lowest setting is the perfect speed and amount of "swing" for her and she definitely likes it now. I don't know what the other reviewers are talking about when they say it swings too slow even at the fastest setting. Over all would definitely recommend for someone who wants to save on the batteries!

Must have for Baby
I just had my fourth baby in October and really researched prior to choosing a swimg for this baby. Here are a few reasons why I LOVED this: 1) hanging mobile (swing w/ mobile GENIUS) 2) plug in (save $$$ on batteries) 3) Colors (decorative and able to coordinate!)
Well worth the money - Take it from a mom of 4!!!

will not swing with baby 14lbs. or larger
I have a 4 month old boy, I shopped around on the internet looking for a Plug-In Swing and did not find but 2. I chose this swing for it's, looks, 6 speed, 10 songs, mobile can be repositioned out of the way , and of course the plug-in capabilities. It sounds nice, but I find that it does not swing my child!?

my husband had to have this!
my husband saw this swing and had to have it for our newborn! Our first daughter 5 years ago had a hand crank...no way, not this time! We love that it plugs into the wall, what an awesome idea and I can't believe it's just coming out now! We have moved the swing to several different areas in the living room, currently we have an extension cord running under the couch to have the swing where we want it.
The print design could definitely be better, there was only 1 at the time we bought ours and it's a muted color but that's ok.
Highly recommend a plug in!
