Description of 4Moms Mamaroo Infant Seat, Green
mamaRoo - It moves like you do. We've never seen a parent vibrate like a bouncy seat or swing like a swing. But we've seen thousands of parents scoop their little precious ones up in their arms and bounce and sway. And that's what the mamaRoo does. It moves like you do. The mamaRoo bounces up and down and swags from side to side, just like parents do when comforting their babies. Hundreds of people helped develop the mamaRoo. While medical experts pushed for speeds that would really stimulate a baby's inner ear, some moms preferred slower movements. So, we made the speed adjustable. Slow down for sleep or speed up for play. Of course every one is always safe. We love the monkeys at the zoo, but not in our living rooms. Our plush toy balls are black and white on one side for infants. The other side is for babies can see color (around 4 months). Perfectly sized for little hands, they easily pop in and out of the mobile so babies can chew...err...study them. Babies love white noise machines, so we built one in. Choose from one of five nature sounds, or for something a little more rockin', connect any MP3 player. The mamaRoo's seat reclines to any position along its axis. The machine washable fabric removes easily. It's an easy to clean as it is to us.

Customer Review: So far, so good!
Summary: 4 Stars
When we were shopping for a swing/bouncy seat, we were disappointed by all the baby-ish looking ones in the stores. We wanted something that would fit the style of our house, and not clutter the room with silly bears or nursery prints.
We were excited to find the Mamaroo and ordered it without even trying it out in a store first.
So here's the scoop:
Pros:
It looks modern. The sleek white base has a great design, and the bucket seat support is smooth and sturdy.
The movement motions are relaxing, even for adults to watch, because of the way the pod moves out of the base- another great design.
Our baby (who is just one week old now) enjoys the slowest movement setting, and we can speed things up once she is older. The vibrating is so very slight, but enough to be calming. She is actually napping in it RIGHT NOW and giving me time to check email, etc.
The ipod feature is awesome, so we can also expose the baby to all varieties of music that we like and not tiresome nursery tunes. Nice range of sound volume too.
The built-in nature sounds are good- especially the white noise.
The bucket seat cover is easy to unzip and wash.
The whole pod reclines for tiny people, and sits up for slightly larger people.
NO BATTERIES needed. It just pugs into an outlet. The cord is about 5-6ft long.
Cons:
It is LARGE. It takes up about a 3ftx2.5ft space on the floor and is about 3 ft tall.
The motor that runs the base movement is louder than I expected. White noise though... this alone is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. I wish I had known that the motor was as loud as it is. BUT STILL A GREAT CHAIR and not enough noise to be a deal-breaker, for sure.
Our one-week-old is too small to fit by herself, so we have to pad around her head with rolled up washcloths. I wish it had come with an extra head support for tiny people, like infant carseats have.
The Art balls at the top are removable, and even though they are way cooler than most hanging baby toys, they are mostly stationery and purposeless. Small pro: the whole arm that holds the balls is removable too.
All in all, I highly recommend this seat to sophisticated, modern parents, who don't want a winnie-the-pooh chair, or the likes, in their living room, or for parents of babies who are bored with just one type of movement, either swinging back & forth or stationery vibrating. Everyone loves options and some variety, right?
