One of my friends was trying to convince me that the Mamaroo (https://www.4moms.com/mamaroo) is the best thing since sliced bread in the realm of parenting.. Does anyone have a strong opinion one way or another? Most of the reviews on their site seem good, but there aren't very many for such a "great" product..

Among my friends it's been hit or miss whether their LO's liked it or not. I don't think I would buy it but if we tried one out after this baby arrived and it was like some sort of miracle worker I might get it! lol!
DD1 didn't like the swing at all so I don't think she would have liked it either.
$400??
No way I would spend that much money on something used for such a short time frame.
That's what it was 2 years ago. I don't know if it is now, and I'm too lazy to check it out, but yea. No thanks.

I was curious so I decided to look. They're only $200-$300 now. Still no thanks.
I have one that a co-worker had for her LO and she never used it due to the child having hip dysplasia. I paid $100 for it and it is brand new.
I hope that my LO likes it. I think that the different movements and the sound machine could provide a much better soothing motion (5 movement options) than something that just vibrates.
They have them in the NICU where my friends son was due to gastrosentisis and she highly recommended it.
I wouldn't have paid $400 for it. At Buy Buy Baby the second generation is around $240. The one I have is the first generation and retailed for $199.
I found a used one on Craigslist here for about $150, and also at a consignment store for similar. It'd be about $200 new.. I'm just on the fence. If it truly replaced the swing and bouncer then great- but it seems like a pricy experiment!
