I donated all teh swings and other things after I started using this glider – its FANTASTIC. I loved it so much I bought three for our home (I keep in various places in the house) I have also bought another DOZEN for gifts. I have every baby product imaginable…from Bugaboo to SilverCross, etc. I have a $4,0000 pram and NOTHING compares to how fabulous this is! Its not too loud and it maybe a wee heavy you wouldnt want it light it wouldnt be safe for the baby! This is from now on the first gift I send!!!!

We bought this for our 1 week old baby. Here are our findings:
1. Babies cry – thats the only thing they do. If a baby has to cry, she will cry even if u put her in this glider. If u want to buy this glider to calm ur baby, then its an absolute NO. If ur baby is crying, do pick her up and she will stop instantaenously. Putting a crying baby in this glider does not work at all.
2. Too slow to put a baby to sleep – If u want ur baby to go to sleep in this glider – then let me tell u – the trick is not going to work. This glider is too slow to put a baby to sleep on her own. You want something faster to put a baby to sleep. Best of all I would recommend, hold your baby, put her to sleep and then put her in this glider.
3. In our 1 month usage, we figured out that this glider does help extend the sleep time of ur baby by about 30 minutes – if she is in her sound sleep – not when she is dreaming (babies tend to do this more). May be it will help older babies sleep for longer duration but that is it.
Advantages:
Sound is not too much. At least it doesnt disturb a sleeping baby.
Looks really good.
We never felt our daughter ever liked this because she was in it only when she was sleeping. When she is awake, she doesnt want to be in inside it.
We finally ended up buying a swing from Fisher price. In the swing, the baby does go to sleep. Best of all, even if she wakes up, she will go back to sleep on her own. The noise is much lower than the glider. Its fast and does serve the purpose.
I would recommend a baby swing over this glider.
Thanks.

First off my newborn son hated this glider, my wife and I also disliked the glider. This glider took up to much floor space, and was to heavy which made it difficult to move it from room to room. our son grew out by 4 months. We hardly used the glider, maybe 7 times, and now its broken. this was a complete waste of money !

Haven’t had the baby yet, but have played with this. Is is easy to set up. It does make a noise but a low mechanical noise, which may be soothing to baby. I’m not sure if it is suppose to make that kind of noise. It is not as noticable with the music going. It moves steady and slow. I think baby will like it, I hope. I rated it 4 because of the noise.

Buy the Bobby travel swing. There is one for a boy and one for a girl. It is low to the floor. It collapses a stores easily. I bought that huge swing that had all the bells and whistles on it. It was the baby soothing center. I had it ready for my little girl when we brought her home and she hated it from day one. We tried for months. I took her to my sisters house and put her in my nephews Boppy travel swing and she fell asleep like that. I tell you it is between 50 and 70 bucks and goes every where with you. A great thing to have that doesn’t take up a lot of space. All these other swings are a waste of money.
