We love our Rockaroo!
April 7, 2014
We bought Rockaroo for our third child. With our first we bought a tiny, fold up travel swing from a well-known brand. We all, baby included, hated it. With second baby, we bought a full sized, flat motion swing (thing swinging like a door swings open) because the traditional swing had been such a dud for us. While this one seemed to soothe our little one a little better, it was *huge* and still a dud over all for longevity as baby decided he wanted nothing to do with it after about 6 weeks of age. So enter baby three and the Rockaroo. We've been using Rockaroo since the day he came home from the hospital and he loves it! He naps in it every morning and will happily sit in it for decent periods of time (he's still a newborn, after all!) I love how simple it was to put together, how easy it is to move around, it's small footprint and low profile. Oh, and how easy it is to clean! We've already had a couple of diaper blow outs and cleaning the swing was as simple as unzipping the cover and dropping it in the wash! Oh, another great feature - auto-stop! I don't know what the real term for it is but, when I swaddle baby at night, he can't be buckled into the swing so he progressively wiggles his way down the seat. **I am sitting right next to him, he's never left alone, so he's perfectly safe the entire time.** The further down the seat he wiggles, the less the swing moves. Once he hits a certain point, where his weight is too far forward to be safe, the swing stops and turns off. Amazing feature. If you were to forget to buckle baby in and baby wiggles down to the bottom of the seat, the swing will stop so that the motion doesn't assist baby in falling out of the seat! LOVE it! Again, I never leave him when he's swaddled and unbuckled but I love the safety feature because it is just another way that 4Moms has thought of everything with this swing! Great product, awesome company!
