Looked very premium and was excited to get it set up. Great idea as babies often like constant movement. Was very stable and well built, but also looked like a comfy seat too. Instructions easy to understand and nice and straight forward. Super easy to see and understand all the features. Confident my daughter was safe and comfortable. The adjustable seat position was very reassuring as well. Cry detection, soothing sounds and motions all work really well. All features on this are easy to use and adjust. I liked the white noise and nature sounds, the melodies didn’t quite land with me. My baby girl prefers the quieter white noise. This is easy to store and move around. Toy bar did keep my daughter entertained, although my baby is 3 months old so slightly out of her reach still as she is finding her hands. It would be good if the arm was able to move round to the side somehow. We use this most days. This was kept in our living room. I loved the ease of use and building. Very easy to keep clean. Was ideal for our 3-month baby girl. This is well built, sturdy, neutral colours go well with décor. Great idea for birthday or Christmas gift as it is very useful for newborns and parents. Good value, but although I think it’s a great product, I believe a slightly cheaper price point would be better value. I would buy this if at a slightly cheaper price point. We have already recommended to family who have bought one. Great product, very useful, well built and I feel assured that my baby is safe. Ease of building and the design have made my experience a positive one. Chris Neatherway – Daughter 3 Months

Looks incredible. Practical modern and beneficial. Everything clearly explained. It’s the easiest one I’ve used. The positioning and straps are very secure. It definitely detected my baby crying but it didn’t manage to settle her that’s on my baby not the swing. It was easy to change features and adjust to find something my baby liked. The calming melodies and white noise features were self-explanatory and had plenty of options. My daughter loves the white noise. There’s only so compact these swings can be but it was much more compact than my previous one and also isn’t an eye sore. The toy bar kept her happy once she started to explore fine motor skills. We would use this daily. We used this mostly in the living room. I loved how modern it is. It wipes down very easily. I would say she has outgrown it now but my baby is on the highest centile for weight and height. Good quality felt expensive. This would be an ideal Birthday or Christmas present as it shows thought of all things baby brings and ease of parent’s life. For everything this offers good value. I would buy this as it was a life saver. I would recommend for all the reasons above. Highly recommend it is sleek stylish practical and modern it does not take up too much room looks and feels good holds the baby very comfortably and feels like a second pair of hands.

Huge box, bigger than expected. Lovely colour and design. Lovely cotton fabric, big product but looks lovely set up, very modern and sleek. Easy to set up and understand the instructions. Very easy to use, straight forward buttons and design. Yes confident in the safety. A bit fiddly to do the buckles every time but felt secure when baby was settled in it. Our baby has been settled then started crying in the chair, this didn’t seem to be detected even when in the cry detect. All the swing motions, speeds, vibrations easy to use. Volume control was easy to use, I found the Melodie’s just played all together as one track and it wasn’t t obvious how to select them. My baby preferred the classical music. The base is quite large so I would say it is not very compact to store when not in use. Our baby loved the toy bar and has spent a while staring at it, he was very happy! Currently we use it at least once per day, especially when our baby is slightly unsettled and we need to put him down for a few minutes. This is kept in the living room. We liked the different motions and speeds; these were very calming for our baby. Very easy to remove the different fabric parts and clean them. We put our baby in when he was approx. 3 weeks old, and he is currently 9 weeks. Birth to 6 months seems appropriate. Feels and looks like a high-quality product. This would make and ideal Birthday or Christmas gift. It is a higher priced product we may not have purchased for ourselves, but we are finding it really useful. Good value but would be good if it was adaptable to post-6 months to be more value for money and last longer. We would not buy this as not in our budget currently, but I would love o have been given it as a gift. We would recommend if it is in their budget. Really useful product that soothed our baby. Cry detections was slow to work however. We had a positive experience with the product, our baby loves sitting in it and it serves as a good soother or distraction especially when he is unsettled or a bit fussy. However, the cry detections did not quickly pick up our babies cries or change mode when he was crying. It would be handy if the product lasted longer than 6 months. Matthew English – Son 3 Weeks
