[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our baby is 4 months old and we received this product to try as part of a testing panel. Our previous swing is over 5 years old and didn't have near as many fantastic features as this swing! Our baby loved it from the first time we put her in it! We have used at least 10 of the 16 different soothing settings and she likes them all! It has been great to have and keeps her comfortable and entertained when I need to get things done! The fabric is soft and the cushion for her body cradles her nicely! It has been very nice having the portion detach with just the rocker so I can easily bring the lighter piece into the kitchen with me when I'm cooking or baking. She seems to enjoy the swing whether she's rocking a bit or on the base and swinging in one of the 16 modes. The different modes and music are nice as the speeds, volume, and even the vibration of the seat all have more than one setting, so figuring out which one your baby likes is easier. It is smaller in size than our previous rocker, but still solid and stable! I appreciate that it doesn't take up too much space. The only thing I wish it had maybe was a timer on it if one needed a timer. Thank you to Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending us this dual purpose swing/rocker to try!! Our baby girl and I sure have enjoyed it's conveniences!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this product and highly recommend it to parents. This would also make an excellent gift. It takes up less space than a traditional swing with different speeds and reclining options. It is convenient when the baby is asleep because you can remove the rocker and take it with you around the house without waking up the baby. It plays lullabies and other sounds and the material is soft too. This is a must have for any parent in my opinion.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can't say enough nice things about this swing! I wish we'd received it as a baby shower gift, so that I could've used it from day one with my baby. As it is, my husband and I have found various features that we like about it, and most importantly, my baby loves being in it. To begin with, it was so easy to put together. It took me a full 16 minutes to put the Soothe My Way together, after I'd removed all the parts from the box, and then only because I installed both base legs before attaching the connector to the first leg. I had to take one out, and insert the connector, but it wasn't difficult to do. Once I'd finished construction, we could see the advantages of this swing. We were gifted a different swing, but the slimmer profile of the Soothe My Way immediately made it a better fit in our small apartment living room. It doesn't look bulky and it hasn't gotten in the way like other baby items have done. Most importantly, with its pad and enfolding seat, the swing is so comfy that we've developed a new routine; I place my baby in the seat, turn on a baby video, and get about 20-30 minutes to make dinner while my LO coos and laughs. We played around with each of the different motions on the first day. While my LO was surprised and giggled at every change, we eventually settled on the half circle setting: it seems to be the most comfortable for him to watch TV and relax. His other favorite setting, while watching me cook or sitting next to me in the living room is the figure eight. At almost six months old, my baby is growing fast, and we were only able to use the pad for a few days before the straps felt too tight around his shoulders. I could fit a finger between his shoulder and the strap, but I really had to pull to fasten the five point harness. That was one thing I wish could be improved: straps that were a little longer to accommodate my little bean pole! Maybe if there was a mention of it in the instructions, that would be helpful for parents whose babies seem to be reaching the upper range of the weight and height limits. One feature that I haven't tested out is the rocker, since we haven't weighed our baby recently, and I suspect he's past the 18 lb. limit. Once we confirm it, I would love to be able to take advantage of being able to move him from the living room to the kitchen, so that he can watch mama finish dinner after he's had enough of the TV. This way, the SMW would eliminate two separate items that we received to each serve those purposes. Since I can't have baby on the floor in my small kitchen, the rocker would make the best accessory to keep him company and a safe eye on. This swing has ticked a lot of boxes for my little family ; it's stylish, compact, comfortable for my baby, and fills multiple functions that have helped us to eliminate too many products in our home. Although the straps seem to me to fit a little snugly, I'm looking forward to finding a solution so that we can continue to enjoy using it! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this swing, which I was happy to test and review!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this swing to test as part of the stellar product testing panel and my only compliant is that I didn't get it sooner! What a great product for your little one! Plus it is super sleek and takes up minimal space compared to other swings we have used which is a lifesaver (you don't realize how many things your little one will need!). Tons of options and settings for different movements and sounds to accommodate and entertain any and all babies! My little one was so comfy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We absolutely love this swing and rocker. Anything to make a parents life a little easier is amazing. The best part is that this swing is a 2 in 1 combo so not only does it save space, but it gives you options if your baby prefers one over the other. I would be surprised if your baby doesn't like this swing because there are 16 different motions. My son is a month old and he pretty much loves them all. I also love the different sounds it has. I REALLY love the removable rocker because it allows me to bring our son with us to other rooms or spaces easily. We also have a toddler who is always on the move so the rocker has been great. The swing itself was easy to put together. The seat was very cozy and my son looked really comfortable in it. My favorite feature is actually the vibration setting. My son seems to enjoy that, with the sounds of nature the most. Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending us this swing to try out!

Absolutely loved this swing and my baby did too, but it's lasted three months and now it does nothing. when you click the power button all the lights just flash blue and it does nothing else. I was gifted it and did not keep the gift receipt, but am so disappointed that this expensive swing didn't last longer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this swing to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I was worried that my 3 month old would not like this swing since he wasn't a fan of the one we had originally purchased but he LOVED it! The large, padded seat provided him comfort while he was swinging. The motions of the swing are pretty compact so it doesn't have to be too far in the middle of the room. I love the compact frame because it does not take up a lot of space and it doesn't look bulky in the room. The many motions provide a relaxing but changing routine to my baby prior to naptime. His favorite motion was the figure 8 while listening to the white noise. Also, the removable seat came in handy if he was sleeping and I wanted to move him to a different room where I could keep an eye on him. Assembly was very simple and took maybe 10 minutes to complete.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received as a gift from my baby shower a few months ago. And it's very smooth and quiet! My baby is only a few weeks old so we hadn't used it a whole lot but from the times we have, I really like this one because of its comfort.

I'm the most indecisive person ever so picking any baby items for my registry took forever, but the swing took the longest as in my eyes it was one of the most important items to choose. I spent HOURS researching different swings, reading reviews, watching videos and more. I am so glad I went with this one. I was a little nervous about some of the negative reviews about the noise it makes and the quality of the music, but ultimately picking this one was for-sure the best option for me. Pros: 1. You can just take off the top part and use it as a rocker so you don't need to buy two separate items. This was important to me so that I could take her around the house with me (shower, etc..) 2. So many different settings for movement. I just realized that if I put the top part (rocker) sideways it added even more ways to move. (Should have read that in instructions). 3. Doesn't take up much space at all. 4. Very soft and comfortable for baby. 5. Reasonable price considering it's a swing and rocker. Cons: 1. It is a little bit loud, not enough to bother me or my baby but all babies respond differently to noises. I just don't think it's loud enough to not get it for that reason only. 2. The music option is not the best, the songs are actually quite bad and don't sound so good. The other sound options isn't too bad though, and I do use that. Either way, It's not too much of a problem for me as a I have a sound machine anyway, and you can always play anything on your phone so it should be the thing that keeps you from buying this great swing. 3. The pad has some fuzz balls already. Again, easy fix with fabric shaver. Anyway, to me the pros absolutely outweigh the cons. I just recommended it to my pregnant best friend and might just buy it for her for her baby shower. I'll keep recommending it as it's a great product.

Graco has long been my favorite brand for anything baby. Almost all of our baby stuff is from this brand; from car seats to high chairs. This swing has served us greatly over the past couple of years (bought in 2021) but unfortunately, even though mechanically we are still working great, the plastic has completely yellowed after only 3 years. We never took this outside or let it sit in direct sunlight so I am so disappointed as I was looking forward to using this with our next baby in November.
