  • Meh. Not safe if you don't reconnect the bouncer just right, and the bouncer alone is a bummer. My reflux baby liked it because of the angle. Oct 09, 2023

  • Love it! My baby loved this swing so much I bought a second one to keep at my moms house! Also being able to remove the seat to use as a bouncer was great! Jan 03, 2021

    Had this for my first kid. Sold it after as it was bulky. Was looking for it again and found that it was no longer in production. Bummer. Oct 14, 2020

  • I love that this is a two in one piece. It saves so much space, and the bouncer is so soft on baby. My son is 8 months old and we still use this from time to time. He loves his swing and bouncer. Sep 26, 2018

  • Perfect swing for infants. This swing put my baby to sleep many times. It has 6 speeds to chose from as baby gets a little heavier you will start to increase. It also has music and sounds. Jun 22, 2018

  • Swing, bouncy chair, vibrates, plays music...all in one! Kind of wide and bulky, but worth it because of all it does, you only need one thing instead of a bunch of singular things that do all of this Apr 13, 2018

  • Bought this for a niece and now its ours! Loved using this for my niece, can't wait to use it on our babe. Mar 26, 2018

  • In a small apartment this was a perfect 2 in 1. I loved how baby could be sleeping and I could pick it up and bring it while I showered. I also find the gliding motion more soothing than swinging. Mar 12, 2018

  • Perfect for baby, cozy and the canopy helps with nap time. I loved that you plug this swing in so never a dead battery. Also great is the vibration and bouncer option Mar 02, 2018

  • This glider served both of my girls very well. It's great for putting your little one down for a nice snooze, or just to help your baby to relax for a bit. The music is awful, but it doesn't matter. Feb 12, 2018

  • Great swing/bouncer! Haven't had any problems in 6months. Super easy to clean. Love that it has a pretty high weight limit for the bigger babies. Bummer when it's in the wash and you're without though Feb 07, 2018

  • Love everything except the size. It’s pretty bulky but I love that it’s both a bouncer AND a swing! It’s fairly noisy but I find that it’s actually soothing to baby so I don’t mind. Oct 20, 2017

  • Saved us! we had a super fussy baby and this was a life saver! It has been great because now he is getting the the point where he can bounce around. Convenient to transport the bouncer for naps! Oct 18, 2017

  • Little one would only sleep in this in the nursery so we bought one our first day home. He either loves it or hates it now depending on the day. Love the 2 in 1 functionality of it though! Aug 11, 2017

  • While this swing has a giant footprint, it was great to have the option to pull the bouncer out and take my son with me from room to room. We used it daily until he began pulling up to a sit. Jul 16, 2017

  • Puts my gassy baby to sleep. very good to have if your baby likes to be rocked. Jul 10, 2017

  • This was so cute and useful, it was able to put my LO to sleep very quickly, CON - my LO grew out of it very soon Jun 15, 2017

  • Baby seems to love that natural glider rocking feel, and it's a two-for-one with the removable bouncy seat. Have the Pierce collection and love how the neutral colors match other nursery items. Jun 09, 2017

  • Both of my kids have preferred this over the much pricier Mamaroo which does not go back and forth. It also plays sounds and has 6 speeds and can easily recline. Apr 14, 2017

  • I have the sylvia fashion. Seemed to work well in the beginning, but baby seemed to outgrow the seat way before the weight limit. She also got bored with it after the first few months. Feb 22, 2017

  • I love this! Can't live without! I love that it is detachable so I can bring the seat with me wherever I need it so I always have my baby close. She loves the vibrations on the glider,helps soothe her Jan 09, 2017

    My 3rd baby was very uncomfortable in this chair. The "velvety" material gave her a big bald patch in the back of her head. Big and bulky Dec 16, 2016

    Love this space saving chair! 2 in 1 exactly what we need for our small house. Love that it can plug in too. Dec 14, 2016

  • I'm still torn, she either loves it or hates it. Nothing is consistent Oct 08, 2016

  • It doesn't take up much floor space, it is quiet, has six levels of swing intensity, and doesn't require batteries. We like the ability to take the seat off and use it as a bouncy seat.. Oct 05, 2016

  • i lovee this! when ever my son was fussy i could put him in the swing and it would help i loved that i could easily detach the bouncer and have him near me when i needed do get stuff done Mar 03, 2016

  • I have had this swing for 2 years now! Its been amazing for all 3 of my boys. It really helped my two year old when he was a baby with his really bad gas! its a awesome swing! Feb 27, 2016

  • Lots of nice features with this product: swing and bouncy seat in one, can plug into outlet or use batteries, seat can recline or be more upright, and baby can hear music as well as nature sounds. Feb 24, 2016

    I have this in pink for my daughter. She loves the vibrations and soft seat. The multi level swing speeds is great. The only thing is the music is not soothing at all and is very loud! Jan 28, 2016

  • Love this! It doesn't take up a lot of room in the house and i'ts been so convenient to take the bouncer seat around the house as needed. One of our best baby purchases! Jan 14, 2016

  • This swing was fine when it worked, but that was the problem: the buttons got jammed all the time, so we just stopped using it and put it in the basement. Who's got the time to get it fixed? Feb 12, 2015

  • Could not make it through without this swing! Nov 12, 2014

  • I loved this. Could be a little creaky when you put he swing on 3 or higher. The music/sounds could be weird sounding, but good variety. I loved this, but my baby didn't as much to my disappointment! Nov 11, 2014

  • didn't seem well made. Noisy. Horrible sounds/music Oct 28, 2014

  • LOVE this swing!! Being able to remove the bouncer was super convenient. Baby loved the 2 toys that hang down. The white noise and nature sounds were also very helpful. Oct 23, 2014

  • Could not have lived the first 4 months without this! Oct 06, 2014

  • Awesome product! Great fort reflux babies with the multi position recline! Cute print too! Jul 29, 2014

  • My LO fell asleep almost immediately every time I put her in here. My only regret is that we set it up sort of late, and put it in a room that we don't use often, so I think it was underutilized. Mar 27, 2014

  • 3 in 1 swing/vibrator/bouncer AND it plugs into an outlet or uses batteries. Our newborn loves this. Great space saver. Pricey, but worth every penny. Mar 01, 2014

  • My newborn loves this! Feb 13, 2014

  • Baby loved this glider/swing but it broke which was a nightmare. We took a big chance and bought another one and after a week, it was broken too! They both just stopped working (and when we needed them most). We ended up taking both back and were extremely frustrated. Jan 13, 2014
