Do not buy the fisher price luv u zoo swing...

We received it as a gift and put it together yesterday. Makes an awful loud clunky sound and doesn't swing well. Thought maybe we had a "bad" one. Took it back to BRU and turns out that they've had many returns on these. Fisher Price has been sending replacement parts out to those that can't return/exchange them. There are lots of poor reviews online. Don't have a pic, but it's one of the travel/space saver swings. I blame myself for not doing research on this one, but it's a freakin' swing. Was really the only thing I didn't look too closely at. Picked b/c it's small and we have limited space. Just wanted to give you other ladies notice. On the plus side, BRU was great and let me put the amount on a gift card until I can figure out what else to get.

On that note, anyone have any suggestions on a small swing?!

Re: Do not buy the fisher price luv u zoo swing...

  • I feel like most swings always have some reviews complaining about noise. Every swing i'm sure makes a noise - some just worse than others. I have heard cradle swings are better than the regular swings. I have the Graco Sweetpeace which is pretty quiet. It's expensive though (I wouldn't have bought it for myself it was a gift). I don't think I really helped. I'm sorry.

  • I got the Luv U Zoo full size cradle n' swing last week. I set it up and turned it on and it was not loud at all. Hopefully I don't have any problems with it because I don't want to have to take it down and return it, especially since I threw the box out already.

    Are you talking about the Spacesaver swing or the cradle swing?  Both exist in the "Luv u zoo" style.

    We got this one too.  It makes some noise, but I didn't think it was too bad.  From the reviews I've read of swings in general it seemed like many of them make some noise.

  • It's the space saver swing. From what I'm hearing this is the only one that does this. I didn't find anything negative about the full sized one. I was going to get another one until the employee at BRU told me they had gotten a lot of them returned recently. When I got home I looked at the reviews one the website and there were quite a few that had the same problem and some of them even stopped working altogether after while.

    Thanks for the suggestions ladies, will check those others out!
