We bought this swing for our second child. I had a three year old and a new born. This being my second child, I didn't have the time to just sit and hold my baby like I did with my first one. He loved it so much and was very content with swinging and watching the fish. He didn't like sleeping in his crib and sleeping in my arms all night wasn't an option, so we tried using the swing. It worked and he slept in it for about the first three months. This baby swing saved my life and made the transition from mommy of one to mommy of two that much easier!
This is a great swing! Our son LOVED IT! We put him in it as soon as we came home from the hospital and he spent a lot of time in it for his first 4 months or so. There are some cons to the swing that I would like ot point out:
1. You have to be careful on how you pick the baby up out of it. There is no way to avoid the part that hangs over the baby.
2. There is no way to have your child sitting upright and swing in this one. Once my son was 4 months he wanted to watch what was going on, this swing kept him too reclined so at 4 months he no longer wanted to spend time in it.
3. The light...

It can also lay back or sit up which was nice when my son wanted to play and look around while not swinging. The only complaint I have is that it has to have batteries and can not plug into the wall.
my son really liked this Fisher Price Ocean Wonders Aquarium Cradle Swing. My mother in law got it for me and it is wonderful. I can keep my son in there while i am busy doing working or doing tasks[of course i watch him] he loves it and he keeps it entertained.
I have a 4 month old baby who can't stand for me to not hold her. I love doing so- but now and then I have to cook dinner!! This swing allows me to do that. It's the only way I can set her down when she is awake!! We LOVE this swing. It buckles up safely, is lightweight, easy to clean, and all around great!! We also love that the battery life is long with it.
This swing really does wonders. My daughter loves this swing maybe just a little too much. While shes swinging she pays much attention to the lights and fish which keeps her attention while I can get some housework done. I love the different position you can put it in to swing which is very easy to do. It is very easy to clean and sanitize when not in use but it does go through batteries very quickly. I find it worth the money to keep your baby occupied safely while you get some time to catch up.
My granddaughter loves this swing. Without it I wouldn't get any sleep. She loves to watch the mobile go around and the motion has different settings which makes it nice to be able to increase the speed as she gets older. The swing seat also has a adjustment so you can lay her back or sit her up. The mobile lights up and plays music. I love this swing for her. The swing can be set to swing either front or side to side.
I love how you can change the positions of this swing! Due to extreme colic, my son slept in his swing for the first 4 months. He could not lay flat and did not like his bouncer.. only his swing. I love how the seat cover is very easy to remove and wash (even the fish come off and can be washed).
This swing was a blessing for both of my little girls when they were babies. Not only were they mesmerized by the fish patterned fabric, the mobile and the lighted dome with swimming fish, but the music would instantly calm them. The swinging motion combined with the ocean sound (my favorite because it's good white noise) would lull both of my girls to sleep. I would often use this for my girls to nap because I wouldn't have to spend 20-30 minutes rocking or swaying my babies to sleep before setting them in their crib. A lifesaver and timesaver! They both loved swinging up until probably 6-8 months....

This swing saved us! My daughter loved this swing - it lulled her to sleep. It had a cute design as well. A neat light mobile, pleasant music, and the swing itself is not noisy.
This has been such a great swing! We bought it when we had our first baby six years ago! We are still using it now with our third baby. All three babies have loved it so much. Its great to put the baby in there so you're free to cook dinner etc... The quality has been great, after all, its gone through three kids and still works and looks like its brand new.
The right colors, the lights, and the music keep babies entertained as well. I love that the seat cover comes off easily and can be thrown into the washer to clean up any spit-up mess.
If something happened to mine I would replace...
read full review »This swing is awesome. It can swing two directions. It lights up and has music with a mobile. My son loved watching the fish go around and around. He would cry if the music stopped. The only thing is, if you use often, be prepared to go through 4 D batteries every 2 weeks or so.
I love this swing, it is very cute and a very good swing. It is a little expensive, but will keep baby occupied and get him to sleep very easily.
