We started with the summer infant swaddleme when she was born and they worked well. Then when she grew out of the newborn size we got the halo sleepsack swaddles (because they were on sale at BRU) and LOVE them! I like that she can sleep swaddled in them at night, but we can also use them as a blanket during the day (arms swaddled out). There's also a lot of room for her legs to kick around in the sack, which is good for hip development (another plus)!
We use the woombie which we love love love! It mimics the womb feeling so that baby can still move slightly but can't startle. It zips so baby can't escape and the zipper is two way so it doesn't have to be removed for diaper changes. DD sleeps 6 hrs or more every night thanks to the woombie.
We use the Summer Swaddle Me's and Miracle Blankets. DD has a habit of getting her hands to poke out of the sides of the Swaddle Me's. She sleeps much better in her Miracle blanket.

I've tried different sleepsacks and swaddles and they annoyed me. We like the lightweight blankets from Gymboree. Plus, it is an actual blanket I can throw over them in the stroller, etc.
Love the Halo sleepsack swaddles. DD is 5 weeks and sleeps pretty well every night in her crib using it. She gets wrapped up real snug and can't move her arms much. I also started using the A&A blankets to swaddle for naps and that has been working well.
