What swing... discouraged about the two I selected thus far

Hi all-

I wanted to get Carter's Safari Friends swing but it had a few bad reviews.

I then wanted to get the Fisher Price Lab Swing which swings both ways and seemed nice.  However, there are reports of TONS of motor failures, kids slipping out of the swing, and the back "glowing".

So, what swing will you/do you have?

Thanks...

  • FP Zen - so far so good on it.

  • I just ordered the FP I-Glide Cradle and Swing.  There were mixed reviews for this one too but I am hoping for the best. 
  • FP little lamb and we never had a single problem with it.  Also, we only had to change the batteries once!  They lasted forever!

  • I got the FP Lamb swing.  The family I nannied for got theirs used, and used it for 2 years and never had a problem with it.

  • I recommend a Fisher Price swing that plugs in and goes both directions.  I think the plug is a must.  We have the rainforest, it has been great but I think it's pretty ugly. 
  • I got the gracco 2-in-1. It's a bouncer and swing combination. I really like it so far.

  • We had the FP Butterfly Papasan Swing. It's just like the FP lamb swin. It swung both ways, and plugged in and used batteries. DD loved it! It lasted forever and we are lending to a friend right now who's DD was just born. We've never had a problem and neither has our friend.

  • Thanks ladies!!!
  • I got the Graco Lovin Hug swing. It was the same style my sister had with both of her girls and they loved it.


  • Graco Sweetpeace!

  • I wanted the Sweetpeace and was discouraged from it by some bad reviews, so we registered for the Little Lamb, which has better reviews. I think there are lemons out there for all swings, so you're always going to hear something bad about one.
