I was registered for the "Little Lamb" swing, but I read this post on the Indiana Moms board, and now I have taken it off of my registry. It was the highest rated swing on Target.com, and now I don't know what swing to put on my registry. Does anyone have a swing they really like or have heard good things about?

Warning!!!!
I get on the November 2010 board and two mommies have posted just this week about how their FP lamb swing has come apart while their LO was in it!! Both babies had concussions and were rushed to the ER. I guess that after repetitive swinging the screws are loosened causing it to fall apart. Both babies landed on their heads. If you get on the Nov board the latest mommy posted pics of her poor LO's face that is bruised. I am freaking out b/c this is the swing that I have. I just wanted to pass this info along!!!! I think I'm going to call FP tmrw to see what they have to say.

This one

We have the Graco Silhoutte and just set it up the other day. Different speed settings, great classical music selections (and nature sounds), volume control, and the seat has the ability to recline or sit up (good for different ages). I'm no expert, but we like it so far!

We got this one, I like it because it plugs into the wall (no batteries, unless you want to use them). The reviews were pretty good,
I love the swing... Please do not allow someone's lack of tightening screws be the reason you miss out on the best thing that we registered for... Our DD slept over 6hrs from the beginning ( and I bf) because of this swing, it is a lifesaver the batteries lasted a long time as well.
It is more comfortable than the rain forest swing by far...
