Baby Products Reviews of Fisher-Price Soothing Motions Glider - Butter BunnyCustomer Review: So glad I bought this glider! Summary: 5 Stars
Like everyone parent of a newborn, my living room is full of baby contraptions...swing, bouncy seat, bassinet, glider, but truly the only thing I needed was this glider! My daughter is 12 weeks old and has used this since her 2nd week. She will sleep in this glider for up to 6 hours during the night and naps in it all day long. It cradles her and she feels safe and snug. It's the only thing she can "put herself to sleep" with. We use it everyday and just recently changed the batteries for the first time. Honestly, I do not think the noise level is that bad. If I had to choose between sleepless nights or a bit of noise, I choose the bit of noise! I highly reccommend this to any new parent!
Customer Review: So So Summary: 2 Stars
I received this glider as a shower gift and hoped to have the same great experience that most reviewers have had. However, I find the glider to be overly loud (not the music, but the motor). In addition I find the motion to be jerky rather than smooth as the name suggests. My baby does seem to enjoy the gliding motion sometimes, hence the two stars. However, the motion is so jerky that when the baby has just eaten, I cannot put him in the glider with motion or he'll spit up his milk.
Also, I agree with the previous reviewer who mentioned that the base is so heavy as to make moving the glider or using it on a table impossible or at least not feasible.
Customer Review: Very Happy with glider Summary: 5 Stars
I wanted to find a product in which our 2 month old could sleep in that had her in a comfortable position with a gently rocking motion. The smoothing motions glider is great. Real easy to put together (took about 15-20 minutes for me) and I loved the way our daughter was positioned in the seat, keeping her arms close to her body. She is a little over 3 months and still uses it during the day for naps.
The only thing about this product (which I don't want to considerate negative) is that the base of it is heavy, but it understandable because that is were the main mechanics are for the glider so it can move. We have been really happy with it so far.
Customer Review: Good Night's Sleep Summary: 5 Stars
We've had the Soothing Motions Glider for over seven months now (still going on the same set of batteries) and I couldn't be happier with it. My son slept in it exclusively for the first three months and still occasionally sleeps in it. He slept through the night after the first couple of weeks and the soothing motions glider seemed to help him stay comfortable. If he's tired, it still seems to sooth him to sleep. It has also been nice to keep him elevated while he sleeps to make breathing easier when he's had "upper respitory infections" (colds). I would (and have) recommended it to other parents and wish we had had it for our daughter when she was born.
Customer Review: Great glider Summary: 4 Stars
We started using this glider immediately with our baby. It doesn't take the place of us rocking her to sleep (she still prefers that), but it is very soothing to her. We don't always use the gliding function either. I like that it is small, portable, and not completely flat like her crib. She sleeps on a bit of an incline in this, and that helps her not spit up as often. My daughter is almost 3 months and I'm not sure how much longer we can use the glider- she's a little over 11 lbs. and she's getting a bit big for it. It's been very useful for us though. She wasn't quite ready for her crib right off the bat, and this has been a great alternative.
