Q: Hello. The swing goes too fast on the lowest setting and I can't figure out a way for it to go any slower. I've tried everything!
Any suggestions? Thank you
submitted by Diane Z - 1 year ago
A: Baby weight may be too low for this swing. Wait until they weigh a little more (still under 30lbs) and then use. I had the same issue when baby was newborn.

The swing has received mixed feedback from guests, with many praising its soothing capabilities and ease of use, while others express disappointment over durability issues. Guests appreciate the gentle side-to-side motion, adjustable speeds, and calming music features. However, concerns about noise levels, motor reliability, and bulkiness have been noted. Overall, it serves as a helpful tool for calming babies and providing parents with hands-free moments, but guests suggest considering other options for long-term use.

I’m very disappointed in this item. We got one from our baby shower and the motor died within 1 week of use. We went in and got another and the second motor only lasted 2.5 months. Definitely frustrating and not worth the hassle

Stopped working after 2 weeks.
Used it for 2 weeks. My baby loved it. It soothed him and he loved looking at the stars while awake. It completely stopped working after 2 weeks. He’s only 9 lbs and I only used it in level 1. Looking at the reviews it seems to be a common issue. Gonna try to return it… also the instructions are terrible. Had to find a YouTube video on how to assemble it.

Longevity disappointment
I’d give the swing 5 stars for the short time it actually worked. My baby LOVED it!!! Unfortunately, the swing completely stopped working after a short time. Complete waste of money. I would look at purchasing a different brand with better quality if you want a product to last for more than just a few weeks/ months.

Wish I could give ZERO stars
Very disappointed in this swing. After just 3 weeks of use, the wires have disconnected from the motor and the swing no longer works. A waste of 135 dollars…. Such a large amount of money now wasted after welcoming our new baby to our family. If I could give ZERO stars, I would

Great swing!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this swing so much! Used it for 2 of my kids and it's held up great! I love the neutral colors as I don't want a big colorful swing in my living room! I can't say enough good things about this swing! Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this swing. Got one to have at my house for my granddaughter because her parents have one for her at home. The baby seems to enjoy the vibration setting. I do wish that the mobile rotated.

This product sucks
The installation instructions are a complete waste of time, the bird button on the machine just makes the swing sound like it’s breaking. This product is terrible. No wonder there are almost more 1 star reviews than 5 star reviews. Don’t buy this thing.

good luck
Bought this baby swing because ive had other variations of it in the past with my other babies and have always worked wonderfully. However this one stop working after a week, I tought it was the weight of the baby but she is 2 months old! Tried turning it on by itself and still no luck on the swing swinging. For the prize I would assume the swing would be working properly for a while but turns out that will not be the case.
