Cozy little sleep machine
I did quite a bit of research to find the "perfect" swing for my new baby and my lifestyle. I got exactly what I was looking for in this Boppy travel swing!
- safe: no red flags that I have seen yet
- comfortable: something that would be a cushy little spot for my infant
- portable: folds up very easily to slide behind my sofa when not in use. should be easy to take along when traveling by car.
- affordable: priced right for me
- easy on the eyes: my husband's a designer, and this agreed with him. no garish colors or strong patterns to conflict with home decor

I haven't had any trouble with the swing mechanism, and the music component seems to lull my little guy.

Great product!

Not as good as the reviews
I read the reviews and thought I was getting a high quality Boppy Swing. It has a really jerky motion and the toy bar is instable. When in a reclining position it is crooked. I purposely bought the low one so it wouldn't be tippy with a house full of people but it rocks back and forth. Definitely a defective purchase.

Fatal Design Flaw...
I love this swing. The colors are soft and attractive, the fabric is soft, the toys are cute, the swing and music settings are easy to use, it has a nice swing lock mechanism, the seat position is adjustable, and it is ultra portable. Like I said, I love this swing. The only problem is, I'm not the one using it, my son is. The seat is really deep and when my son would lay in it his chin was always smashed into his chest. He was rarely in a comfortable position. I had to put a blanket under him to fill in some of the seat. I got this swing when my son was 2 months old and I ended up returning it when he was 4 months. I kept it for 2 months to see if he would grow into it and he never did. He is small for his age, weighing only 13 lbs in something like the 6th percentile, so perhaps that's why he wasn't a good fit for the swing. I'm giving this swing a 2 out of 5 because it really has some nice features, but no matter how much I like it, my son didn't. And there is no point in having a swing that isn't going to get used.

Whats up with the automatic shut off?
I didn't know that this swing had a timer on it. It has 8, 15, and 30 minutes and even if you don't chose any of those it still shuts off after 45 minutes, which then causes my son to wake up again. After he wakes up for his middle of the night feeding the only way to put him back to sleep is a swing. He also takes a big nap for about four hours during the day. I have the fisher price papasan swing and he sleeps in that for hours and hours at a tim. My parents decided to buy this swing to take less room but he does not like this swing at all. Even when I do manage to get him to sleep in it, he wakes up after the swing automatically stops. I also think another reason he doesn't sleep well in it is that its very exposed. It doesn't cuddle him in. He's even preffered to sleep in his car seat over the swing. Honestly I wish my parents would have never wasted their money on this swing, but maybe I can figure out a way to make him feel more cuddled in this swing. The one huge plus for this swing is that it is practically silent.

Best Baby Swing EVER!!!
When we had our second child, I decided to go portable with the swing so I could bring it around the house with me. We tried a few brands with no luck before finding this gem of baby equipment. First off, the batteries last forever on this thing. We used it for over two months almost all the time before they needed to be changed. There are three different timed periods if you want to use the timer and lots of speed settings. It's so soft with nothing to scratch baby as well. I loved it so much, I bought another for my sister who's having a Baby :)

Perfect!!
This bouncer is soft and comfy. Easy to put together and it arrived very quickly. My son sleeps better in this than anywhere else. The vibration isn't violent or too much, and the music isn't so loud it's obnoxious. I had one for my older son and he loved it too! it is a Mommy Must Have!

Great Bouncer
It is a great bouncer. The fabric is very push and soft. The structure is stable and the seat angle is adjustble in two ways. My new born boy looks very comfortable in the bouncer. I wish there are more songs it can play.Over all I am satisfied with this product.

Not comfortable at ALL!!!!!!
I got this chair when i was pregnant. It was ok when my boy was just born. But when he started getting little older (starting from around 2 month) he didnt enjoy sitting in this chair, his head was never supported and kept going to the side. Toy bar keeps falling off. Never stays in its place. Music is not so good. My son does not enjoy the vibration. It was waste of money. Wish i would of searched more for a better bouncer seat. My advise is do not waste your money.

baby slept here for 2 months!
This was my old review until the baby loved it:

Don't buy this!!! First, while putting this together I noticed some little broken plastic pieces in the bag upon delivery. The pieces of plastic were so small and cheap-looking that I figured it can't be important. While putting this part together I noticed the bar wouldn't click into place like the other bars did. I then proceeded to put the back bar on. I examined it and there were no Right/Left labels, so I figured it didn't matter. Well, it does! Instead of the top play bar going middle to back, it goes middle to feet now and there is no way of unlocking it once you assemble! I took apart over 7 screws and still couldn't unlock it! Due to this, there is no way of getting it back into the box to return! I'm stuck with a piece of crap with no toy bar for the baby!

#2 Actually it works fine backwards. The baby was born with hip dislocation and sleeping flat was painful for her with her harness. She slept comfortably in this chair (without the toy bar) for 2 months and now still sits in it to watch Elmo at 3.5 months old. We love it!

Cheap, cheap, cheap
I had high hopes for this bouncer to aid in helping to comfort our grandbabies who are 8 weeks premature. The toy bar falls off with only a slight touch and everything looks and feels so cheaply made that I didn't want to trust it for the 2 months they will be with us. Don't buy this....
