  • The swing seat is great and we detached it and used it a lot, but the swing itself is huge and requires a lot of space compared to modern counterparts. May 09, 2023

  • Love this swing! My baby loves to watch the colors on the mobile. Nov 16, 2022

  • Perfect swing because it really makes even the smallest of babies feel nice and cozy with the inserts.. my baby prefers this to the mamaroo. Only downfall is how much room it takes up. Jul 23, 2022

    We love the different speeds, mobile, and that you can turn the chair different ways. The rocker/vibrating option is great to move baby. It is a bit big, but very worth it. May 06, 2022

  • Takes a long while to get into motion. The lights are pretty disappointing in comparison to other swings on the market. It also takes up A LOT of floor space. Dec 23, 2020

  • Little one loves the lights and spinning elephants. Seat is nice and big which I like. Had an incident when seat was turned to the side on swing. Seat snapped off and went flying with babe in it. Dec 22, 2020

  • The seat can turn sideways for front/back or side to side swinging. The mobile lights up while spinning and you can connect your phone thru the a/v jack to play music. There are lullabies to play. Nov 14, 2020

  • Didn't love this swing. It seemed unsturdy when it was swinging if it was turned all the way up. Went with a simpler choice instead Apr 17, 2020

  • Beautiful swing, my daughter liked it. My son not so much. I liked that it plugged in Feb 03, 2020

  • My nephews have this and don’t really seem to care for it Jan 10, 2020

  • My baby loves her swing! You can have it rock back and fourth or side to side. I bought this one because the seat can be taken off and turn into a rocking chair. Oct 24, 2019

  • I like this for older infants but find that even fully reclined, my newborn's head falls into a position that would be unsafe if left for a long amt of time due to his airway being compromised. Aug 30, 2019

  • Quite literally the best baby swing out there. We loved this so much! I recommend it to everyone who asks. My son used the swing daily until he outgrew it and then used the rocking until 9 months old! Aug 25, 2019

  • Love this swing it has great features like the timer and lights with a rotating mobile. Jul 06, 2019

  • This is currently our 2 month old’s favorite activity. The swinging is calming and the overhead display enthralls him with lights, mirror, and rotating mobile toys. Mar 10, 2019

  • I wanted to like this swing as it was cute and had the mp3 adapter, lights, and multiple swinging positions, but it broke after using for 2 months and there are no replacement parts available. Jan 07, 2019

  • I have this in adorable piper. It is absolutely perfect. My baby loves the birds, lights and music. I love how it can go forward & backward or side to side. It’s the perfect swing for baby. Dec 16, 2018

  • This swing could be better, the seat is just too big for an infant, my little one keeps sliding down even when buckled in. I’ll have to wait until he’s biger for him to really enjoy it. Oct 20, 2018

  • Love that I can rock him front to back or side to side. Keeps my baby boy quiet longer. Sep 11, 2018

  • My parents bought this for their house and I have to say, I prefer it to the mamaroo (more affordable too, by a lot!) The vibrations soothe her, but the batteries die very quickly on that function. Jul 12, 2018

  • We have the lamb version. So pretty and we love the variety of speeds and music. Only downside is the "pillow" part at the top of the swing is at an odd place so it could cover his face. Took it off. Jun 05, 2018

  • The idea and options for this swing is great, but my son was not comforted by this swing/motions. It's hard to tell what your baby will like, so this was a waste of money. Apr 12, 2018

  • Baby really loves this, the movement and music made easy for baby to sleep Apr 11, 2018

  • I dont exactly have this elephant themed one but I do have the little bears 2 in 1 swing! I feel its awesome to have because you can switch which direction you want to face 3 ways and you can detach ! Apr 09, 2018

  • My baby hated this swing. Had cool features and loved that it turned and folded but took a lot of space and didnt work for us. Mar 22, 2018

  • Great swing with a lot of features but it takes up a ton of space. My son didn’t like being confined so we didn’t use it much except after surgery when he was on pain meds and needed to sleep upright. Feb 18, 2018

  • It does the job not the greatest swing but definitely not the worst Jan 09, 2018

  • I borrow this from my brother when I visit from out of town. We can’t figure out how to loosen the straps. But my baby loves the lights on the mobile and that it can swing in two different directions. Jan 03, 2018

  • This swing was perfect when he was younger, but grew out of it way to fast! Jan 02, 2018

  • I love that you can turn it so it swings either way and that I can connect my phone to play lullaby’s for my baby Dec 14, 2017

  • We loved this product to put our LO in to clean or cook. He enjoyed looking at the toys and his reflection. You can also hook up a phone to play lullabies. Nov 21, 2017

  • This has a lot of extras that make it worth the cost! The lights and mobile function are great as well as the several swinging speeds and sound options including cord for iPod. Oct 25, 2017

  • I have the InGenuity Inlighten swing "Pheobe". You can turn the seat 360°, have it swing 6 speeds, play music or nature sounds and the mobile can spin &shine lights & plug in your phone! It's awesome! Oct 19, 2017

  • This swing is great! I love that it swings pretty quickly, and can hold a lot of weight! My daughter loves it. It is also great that it can be taken off the swing, and made into a rocking chair. Oct 18, 2017

  • My baby loves this swing! He loves staring at himself in the mirror and watching the mobile turn above his head. I love that the seat unattached and I can take it into the bedroom with me. Oct 18, 2017

  • I love this swing. It's very soothing and helps calm the baby May 18, 2017
