Must Get Item!!!
This baby swing is perfect. I like the swing eventhough my two month old doesn't really like to swing. The batteries last long. The only improvement would be that it would be great to be able to turn on the music without having to activate the swinging motion which is the only way you can listen to it. The infant seat is great....my baby loves to be wherever I am so I put her in this and carry her around the house and put her next to me when I shower, fold clothes, make dinner, etc. She loves the incline of the seat too when its in a rocker position because she hates laying flat on her back and this lets her sit up and see everything around. Also it has no side walls so she is able to see off to the sides. This is a definite must have and I will definitely put this item in storage for future use :)

Great all around value
I think this is the best deal because it grows with the child. There are so many other pieces of equipment that the baby will only use for a few months and cost as much if not more than this swing. My baby enjoys it with or without the music. Can't wait to see her using the rocker when she is a toddler.

The variety of the stages is key
Every baby is different when it comes to likes and dislikes. You never know what they will like until you try it. My little one doesn't care for the swing but he loves the chair, especially in infant seat mode. At 3.5 months of age he will sit in it and play for 15 to 20 minutes. This is especially great when housework needs doing, because I can take the seat to the area I am working in and still interact with him while I work.

Pros:

* Assembly is mildly easy.

* Bright fun colors.

* Seat is soft and smooth and pleasant to my baby.

* Swing has folding mechanics that work good.

* A bit pricey in my opinion but the quality of the swing seems good.

Cons:

* Only 2 stages of swing. Both seem a bit fast for my child's disposition.

* Music will play only if the swing is rocking.

* Music has 2 settings that are both a bit loud.

Overall I think it was a worthwhile purchase.

I'm in Love!
This product is fabulous ... very sturdy ... excellent quality, great price! And i love things that are multi-functional. The hanging stuffed toys are very cute. not just babies but kids of all ages love it. it'll last many years and can be passed down for use in family or friends.

My baby loves this swing
I liked the swing's multiple functioning ability. My baby loved the rocking chair rather than the swing. We have a bouncing chair and he likes it more than the swing. When the swing is in maximum setting he is afraid as it swings really fast. I wish there was a lower setting. And the music doesnot play without the swing. Sometimes he just likes to sit in the swing and listen to the music which is not possible with this one. And one more thing its really hard for me to put the chair back into the swing with one hand carrying the baby. And for me it always take some effort even with 2 hands. Thats the reason i gave it 4 stars. Otherwise overall its good.

GREAT SWING ..WORTH THE MONEY
This swing is great,very calming for my 5 month old grandchild,she's been swinging since she was 3 months. The music is just ok,my granddaugter usually swings without it.I compared many different swings before deciding to try this one. The swing is quiet,haven't had to replace batteries yet, previous Amazon reviews influenced me to buy this swing..plus free shipping.. it was 79.00 when I brought mine.. The fact that it's a 3 in 1 was the draw. MY granddaughter is already 18 pounds at 5 months so she doesn't have much longer to use the swing,but she will able to use the rocker until she's 40 pounds. GREAT SHOWER GIFT.

My baby didn't like that much..
The features are good.. assembling it is very easy if you follow the manual correctly. Looks durable as well.. But my 6 weeks old baby seems doesn't like that.. May be she will like after a while.... I am neutral recomending this product.

Awesome product.
This swing is awesome. It is a quality product compared to other items in the price range. It was a lot cheaper here on amazon. Free shipping. The baby loves this. Easy to set up. Its a 3 in 1 so you save space and money rather than purchasing separate items.

Baby gift
I ordered the Rocker Swing as a gift for a new baby in the family, so I cannot review it first hand. However, the happy mom and baby, are raving about hours of swinging fun! They are certainly enjoying the swing and are very happy with the gift.

Best Deal for a Swing
Compared to the rest, this swing is the best deal! Well made parts make it sturdy and durable. Volume has two settings. Melodies are five soothing popular nursery tunes. Seating is easy to lift off of the swing base to use in the other two positions. Three-point harness keeps baby secure and padded seat is removable to wash. The fact that it can be used as a rocker throughout toddler years makes it practical. However, I could not find a weight limit in the manual or on the box. After further online research, I found that the swing accomodates birth to 25 lbs and the rocker up to 40 lbs. Not mentioned in the description, it is battery operated (4xD batteries) which is good for transporting and placing anywhere. A plug-in option would have been nice. The two speeds have a nice momentum. Neutral colors are suitable for a boy or girl. The toy bar is easily removable and is simply two stuffed animals - enough to mesmerize an infant. I could not find a better swing for under $100.

Update six months later:
No regrets. Baby still falls asleep in the swing but requires some head support with pillows or rolled blankets. The velcro animals still entertain her and we are entertained when she pulls them off. I saw this product now stocked at Toys-R-Us.
