My one month old loves it!
July 6, 2016
I have a newborn and a toddler and only two hands. The Soothing Motions seat has become a second set of hands for me. The "new type of swing", it' mimics my rocking motions instead of just going back and forth. It's a high-end product with a beautiful design and streamlined features: * you can choose up and down motions, side to side, or both. *The seat can vibrate too *You can choose your speed * Choose from music or nature sounds * various sound settings * comes with a plush infant insert *3 point harness That's a brief rundown of general features. Keep in mind that everyone needs different things. I will point out for you the various things I love and the things I would change. I have given it five stars because it has all the features I need, and it has beyond surpassed similar items I've tried. PROS: *I didn't even notice that it had a mirror on the mobile until my husband pointed it out. Nice touch! *Plugs in - no more pricey and annoying C and D sized batteries that you forget to take out between babies... *It has simple lines and a modern, current design. Has a soft pattern that blends in with decor. The mobile has a modern look, and since babies only see simple shapes anyway at this point, it's parent-friendly too. *It's not huge. It takes up little space in my home. *The buttons are almost fun to push - they have a slight colorful glow. It has very streamlined functionality for so many features. My toddler figured out how to use it in moments. *My baby loves it and I have a safe, comfortable place to put him down while I deal with my toddler! CONS: *It's not very deep - really just for very young babies. I don't think my baby will last in it past 2-3 months (but I do have tall babies) *The settings don't save. Meaning, if you switch it off, the next time you turn it on, you need to start the swing/motions/music from scratch. The volume levels do save, but you need to turn on each feature individually. Since I usually use the same settings, this is a slight pain, but not awful. *The mobile doesn't spin - it just hangs. Not a major loss, but could have been nice for baby. THE BOTTOM LINE: It does what it promises and more! It's a great product that my baby loves and that gives me peace of mind. It far surpasses similar products in the market and while there is always room for improvement, this product has all the features I want and need.
