Baby Products Reviews of Fisher-Price Rainforest Open-Top Cradle Swing
Customer Review: Versatile swing with really good music
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this swing for my 2 month old. He likes the music a lot. I use the slower music for naps. Now when he hears the music, he knows it's nap time and barely fusses. I can see him start to relax and go into sleepy mode. I also like that the swing moves front-to-back and side to side. It gives our baby some versatility in what he's able to see and aloows me move the swing to lots of spaces. I love that it also plugs in! My baby uses the swing a lot so this really helps save on batteries. It seems comfortable for him and it's also easy to clean. The only con: He's 4 months old now and rarely looks at the overhead mobile and when he does, it's not for long. I think it doesn't sit in a comfortable position for him.Customer Review: Best Money Spent on My Twins!!
Summary: 5 Stars
My twins LOVE this swing. We never attached the tray. We always buckle them in, but the tray seemed too confining. Also, someone complained about not being able to take off the tray once you put it on. My daughters love to perch their feet on white bump between the legs.
One girl has reflux, and the lower seat setting gives her relief from the reflux pain. She sleeps in it at night (near her parents.)
Make sure you register it in case the motor goes bad. My motor hasn't had problems. We've owned it for almost 8 months. It doesn't swing as high as other swings, but I'm OK with that.
It's like having a helper to hold your baby for you whenever you need an extra set of hands.
Customer Review: Good But on 2nd Try
Summary: 4 Stars
After reading the reviews we desided to go ahead and order the swing even with some of the complaints on power. Our first swing when we started it empty rocked however as soon as we put our one month old son in it there was no movement. After that we couldn't get it to swing empty either. We returned that swing and received the replacement which has worked perfectly so far. Plenty of power and it's what we hoped for. I understand the complaints about the noise from the mobile however our son really likes it and with music on it's not so bad. Overall it's a good buy but be aware there's a chance you may receive a dud like we did. I would have given it five stars if it wasn't for the need to return the first oneCustomer Review: I love the plug in option... No batteries.
Summary: 5 Stars
We have 3 month old twins - a boy and a girl. We have 2 fisher price swings - one Rainforest for the boy.
he just loves the swing. We set it at the lowest speed and is always plugged in - no batteries. He loves the music.
Spends atleast 5-6 hours a day on the swing. Its been a month since we bought it and the moment his body touches the swing, he is fast asleep.
Its very comfortable. Easy assembly. looks strong too. I would very highly recommend this product to anyone. don't buy less expensive ones. This is actually 3 toys in one: the swing, working (powered) go-mobile (the rotating thing on the top) and the music. All of these 3 can be turned ON together or individually.
Customer Review: Not for heavyweights!
Summary: 3 Stars
I have a big fat baby (20 pounds at 3 months. I know, I know...)
Well, he didn't like to be in the swing when he was first born, and by the time he DID like it (a few weeks ago), he was to heavy for it! The swing would go at first, then slow down quickly, then almost stop completely.
So we only got a good week or so of it actually semi-working. Also, there was always a faulty wire connectors in the back where we would have to squeeze them together through the fabric.
We liked the a/c adaptor option, and I think ALL swings should be able to switch back and forth between plug in and batteries.
With all of that said, we're off to return it. Sigh...
