This was the best purchase I ever made. This swing is the Cadillac of swings. This swing can not only swing in one direction it can swing in two directions and has several speeds and sounds to sooth and comfort your baby. The swing also comes with attached toys and a mobile. The swing also has two positions...

I recieved this swing as a gift from my father for my son. It was hard to put together. It took a few people to hold pieces and screw them in. Also it doesn't fit through doors if you're wanting to move it to another room. You have to fold the legs in and once you get through the door it's hard to pull...

I love this swing! I originally had the seat and was so impressed with it...I bought the cradle swing. My little one slept in her swing the first two months of her life. It is very soft, can rock two different ways, has soothing music, and the cover is easy to remove to wash. Also it was very easy to put together.

I've used this swing for both of my daughters now. Both of them really loved it too. The one was very colicky as a baby, so there were nights when the only way she'd fall asleep was in this swing. It does go through a lot of batteries though!

The natures touch swing was the best swing we bought. we got it for our daughter who is our youngest of the three kids. We had so much trouble with the swings we got with the first two kids. This swing is so cute and i love that it can cradle side to side or front to back. The price was a little on the high side we spent 130 plus tax. We never did use the tray because by the time she was old enough to reach it she was to big for the swing. The only bad  thing is we went threw a pack of batteries every week!

helps give me get a break

I really like this swing. It was a Baby shower gift and its great. My only complaint is that its a bit noisy when it swings. But it is a pretty great swing for new borns because its sinks in quite a bit.

We decided to go all out an purchase one of these for our Second Child, our first had a basic swing, no bells or whistles. This has it all, the swinging motion is very smooth, and is great that it can swing 3 different ways, as not all babies like the same swinging motion. The sounds are terrific, my favourite part of this swing has the be the sheer curtain that partially surrounds the swing, couple that with the Lights, its a wonderful way to sooth the baby at times when Mommy can't.

When we purchased we thought it was on the pricy side, but once set up it was worth every penny, I would definately...

Made the mistake of sticking with the traditional swing (foward swinging) with our second even after our first never took to it.  Our second didn't either and in fact because of the seat positioning, she could practically rock her self out of it!  The papasan cradle swing cradles a newborn much better and our third (seems to) love it as much as we do.  Friends have told me they are still getting great use out of this swing for their now eight month old twins (they have two of these swings), so we are looking forward to getting several more months of use out of it as well.

The Fisherprice Baby Papasan Cradle Swing is a must run out and buy for any new mom who's stretched to her limits...being a mommy to twins myself, we went through swings like nobody's business until I found this one...both my boys loved it, and the best thing is, you can plug it in!! No more running out of batteries at one in the morning!!

It has a plush comfy seat that swaddles the baby..soothing sounds to lull them to sleep...and did I mention the plug in option? A God send!

I love this swing almost as much as my daughter did.  She loved swinging in both directions, and this fish eye mirror in the top.  I loved that it blended in with my home decor, had a long battery life, and was easy to take her in and out of.  She was  a premature baby, and even when she was very small, she fit in it beautifully.  It just was so snuggly and cozy.  Her blankets stayed on well, and the fact that the legs could easily collapes made it easy to stash in the corner.

My son just wasn't a swing baby, and I so missed the time I got from my daughter enjoying her swing.  I'd recomend...

I loved this swing!  I was so relieved when my hard to put to sleep son would actually go to and stay asleep!  It gave me time to get things around the house done and he was happy too.  I love the mirror, bugs and tray, itseemed whenever he was getting old with one feature he grew old enough to notice another.  The speeds and different placement options were great too, my son went one way and his cousin only prefered the other, so both could be happy with one product.  We had no problems with overuse of batteries or motors, we used it almost everyday and it is still working ready for our baby-to-be... read full review »
