Which swing?

paviwc · 12-29-2006, 05:57 PM

I dont know which swing to buy. my MIL bought us the 3 in1 Smart stages swing by fisher price but it only has two speeds and it doesnt seem to swing at all! so now we need another, and i know my son loveeeees movement so vibrations would be a plus. plus id like a plug in instead of only batteries. PLEASE HELP!

I wish I could help. All I have is a lovely old wind up. Modern technology is too expensive for me.

I wish I had a wind up. How come they got rid of those? Now they suck batteries. I wish I could find one like what my mom says I had when I was a baby.

I didn't even know they made a plug-in version.

I had a Graco open top 3-speed swing. He used it for months, and I only replaced the batteries once.

I had a portable Fisher Price Light and Sounds (or something like that). I didn't like it. It didn't fold up well, and it didn't work well once he got up to 20 pounds. It was supposed to be good up to 30 pounds, but you could hear the motor straining and it wouldn't actually swing.

See if there are any recalls on your swing. If this is a problem that lots of people have had, they might replace it.

I have a Graco Loving Hugs swing - http://www.gracobaby.com/catalog/pro...N&CategoryID=5

We haven't assembled it yet, but it got high reviews.

If you know someone that is an electrician the swings can be converted into a plug-in. My GF BF did this for her,. LOL
