Love this swing!,
We purchased this swing when my son was about one month old. He loves it! He really likes the bright colors of the mobile animals and used to stare at them in amazement. As he has gotten older (he’s now over 4 months), he gets bored a little more easily, so he doesn’t like to stay in it for as long as he used to. I usually use the swing when I need to get things done around the house and can’t take him along – like cook meals. I’m sad that he’s quickly approaching the weight limit of 20 pounds (he’s a big kid), so we won’t be able to use it for a longer period of time.
We bought this particular swing because of the bright colors, its ability to be plugged in, and because it can swing both side to side and front to back. We also liked the music choices. Most of the songs are easy to listen to and won’t drive you crazy. There is even one choice of just animal sounds (birds chirping, etc). It’s nice for when you really don’t want music playing in the background of your phone call.
Some people have reported problems with the swing stopping, saying they have a faulty motor. After a few days, we thought this was our problem as well. But then we realized that the seat wasn’t aligned properly. Since you rotate the seat to change the swinging direction, you can change the center of gravity of the seat. Rotating the seat very slightly to the left or right and making sure the vertical swinging bar is centered in front of the plastic part (just under the picture of the elephant) will make it swing much better. As long as I check that the swinging bar is centered before turning it on, it works perfectly.

|Motor Lacking Enough Swing Power,
I purchased this swing for my 4 month old daughter. I was enticed by the fact it was the only one I could locate that could be plugged into an outlet and work off household electricity rather than battery power. I imagined this would make the “swing” consistantly a better “swing” as there would never be a weak power source. The first swing I brought home from the store was assembled (which only took about 15 minutes) and plugged in. I was immediately disappointed by the lack of swing, and eventually my wife and I determined that there was definitely something wrong with the swing, because even with no baby the swing would stop swinging then slowly…and barely swing again. I returned it…and purchased another. I agree with the other reviewer that it just appears to take awhile for it to “warm” up. As I sit and watch her in the swing at this moment, it seems to be working okay, but I’m not totally convinced. The mobile rotates and the leaves move up and down. If the motor issue could be improved I’d be more pleased with this particular swing.
