Baby Products Reviews of Fisher-Price Rainforest Open-Top Cradle Swing
Customer Review: The Name Says It All...Rainforest!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I absolutely love the different speeds of this swing and the different sounds of nature that this swing provides; it also has one or two of the standard baby nursery sounds...
My grand daughter also seems to be fascinated with the leaves and animals that move in a circle above her head as the sound of the rainforest and motion of swing help her go to sleep everytime that is truly a plus for me when I have to babysit.
I thought the swing had broke but there is a reset button on the swing that needs to be pressed from time to time nothing major...
I also like the fact that you can use batteries or use the ac adapater...
It also folds easily if you need to take the swing to another room which is great...
The bottom line is this is a great product and I see swings have come along way from cranking a handle every 15 minutes or was that 10 minutes...
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: 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...
Customer Review: Good investment, study model
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for my newborn. When he was less than a month the he enjoyed the swing for a bit, but it gave him hiccups and he soon got irritated, so I stopped using the swing motion for about 3 weeks. I just placed him in it with the music and mobile on with a bottle or binky. He stopped associating the swing with a bad feeling (hiccups) and now, at 6 weeks he happily enjoys the mobile with the swing. Great sturdy model. plugs into the wall or takes batteries. great for many stages. folds up to if you want to move it once in awhile. Not exactly portable. You will need to designate a space for it. Takes up about 2.5 sq ft of floor and stands about 4 ft tall. Good item. I think it will outlast the baby and be useful for the next one.
