I absolutely love this swing! It detects when your baby is crying, then automatically uses different combinations of swinging, music, and vibration to calm baby down. I highly recommend this swing to everyone!

I was a little sceptic about the cry detection tech, but it really works! My baby likes it a lot.

We absolutely love this baby swing is amazing I purchased specially for the "crying sensor" and let me tell you something IT DOES WORK" It sooth my granddaughter when she was crying and she went to sleep. I recommend this product to every mom buy it you won't regret it.

Got this and my daughter loves it ! She's 5 days old and was horrible at sleeping at night, we got this and she slept longer last night !! She literally loves this product ! I love the soothing sounds, moving choices, and also has a vibrating mode. It's sturdy and over all a good product glad we purchased it!

This swing is beautiful but doesn't soothe my infant as well as other swings do. I'm not sure if it's personal preference or a design flaw. We also cannot use the cry detection because it changes the swing everytime my toddler is playing loudly.

The swing is great overall but if the product can't last longer than 6 days it's not worth the very expensive price Graco asks. I do believe every function of the swing should last longer than 6 days.

I'm a second time mom and I have seen and used my fair share of baby equipments. My second child was extremely fussy and gassy and could only be calmed down if I carried him. I was desperate to find another way so I could get some work done at home. My friend had this at her house and I was truly skeptical but the second I put my newborn down he was quiet. If he cried the swing responded and changed the music and motion until he was calm again. He eventually fell asleep. I was sold. I ordered it immediately. My newborn now naps in it once a day and will sit in it during dinner time so we have family dinners again. Sometimes my newborn would cry when put down in the swing for 5-10 minutes until the machine finds a good rhythm for him and now when he sits in it he is calm because he knows what to expect and enjoys it. However if he cries more than 5-10 minutes I know he is either hungry, need a diaper change, is bored, etc.. But the boredom only happens if I put him in there more than 2-3 times a day. It's pricey but for my purposes its priceless.. However I do wish the mobile on top moved or the toys hung a tad lower so my baby could reach it. He loves batting at things and he's not able to here and sometimes it frustrates him so I have to move it aside so he's not looking at it. Overall, this swing may not be every child but it definitely worked for my fussy baby.

Amazing product. Life saver. Baby stops crying within 2 mins

This is my second sense2soothe in a month. The first one was defective and wouldn't work. Took 3 weeks for them to send a new one which was frustrating because it's such a short time my daughter can use it as it is being born almost 10 pounds. She loves it and the cry detection is pretty awesome but still needs some work. If my 4 year old whines or I have music on the tv it thinks she's crying and changes the setting when she's sound asleep which then startles her. We make sure to turn the cry detection off once she is soothed now

Helped tremendously with our baby who loves constant rocking and movement. Only disappointment is I wish it was made for a little heavier weight. It would be nice to be able to use the swing a whole year for the cost.

Worth the money!! Really helps us especially with my colicky baby!

We bought this two months ago and our baby recently came a month ahead of the due date. And we absolutely love this swing!

So many awesome features in this product. It will calm down any baby. Different sounds, music, vibration, swing direction and cry detection we tried them all, and honestly I can say all of them are our favorites, not just one!

This swing is awesome, it can swing front to back & side to side. There are 4 different motions all with 3 different speed levels (low medium & high) 2 levels of vibration, music, womb & nature sounds this swing really has it all as it also turns into a rocker if you disconnect it from the base. My only complaints are as follows: 1-the base is pretty heavy making it difficult to move from room to room. I recommend leaving it in one room. 2-sometimes if the tv is too loud the cry detection tech interprets that as the baby crying and tries to "calm" baby, cycling through all of the different setting combinations. If there was an option to turn off the cry detection technology that would make this swing absolutely perfect. Other than that, both baby and I love the swing! Highly recommend!

We have owned this swing for about a month now and it's so helpful. I love that if I'm busy cooking and have messy hands that the swing will help soothe my upset baby until I can get to him. I also love that it comes apart for a little seat, rocker so I can easily move him room to room. I recommend this to everyone asking what to register for!

This swing is a life saver. IT has been the best swing that we have bought for any of our 3 children. The cry detection works wonderful and helps me get more done. This swing is something that I feel every new baby would love and get a lot of use out of it. Dont delay but this swing and you wont regret it. Also the best plus it really appeals to mothers who might not be as handy at putting things together it comes basically put together.

Was amazed how this product can replace mutiple others: 1) Rocker 2) Swing 3) Sleep seat

Daughter would always cry and get fussy when I put her down, so she was attached to me 24/7. We heard about this swing from a friend and figured we'd give it a try. First day it was a godsend. I was able to get so much done around the house while she napped. The cry detection is a lifesaver. I wouldn't trade this swing for anything.

This swing is amazing as it helps to keep our newborn asleep a lot longer than the regular crib. The soothing sensors are just an incredible addition to aid a new mom. Highly recommend the swing for new parents.

We bought this for our new baby and absolutely love all the features.

My baby loves to take a nap in the swings, she feels comfortable and cozy. And it's great to choose dozens of combination of mode of the swings so we can customize her needs. Plus the cry detection really makes baby stop crying! Really brilliant!

Bought this a couple of days ago and it was here by the next morning. We were so grateful because it calmed her right down without us having to hold her all the time. It was $100 less than the Mama Ru but had many of the same features. It can play white noise, nature sounds or music. Songs are a collection of classical music. So far we are very pleased with this purchase.

Although my baby isn't here yet, I tried this out with my niece and I love the swing/sway options available. I also love the position of the speaker because the music/sounds are the perfect volume. I can't wait to check out the cry detection technology.

My little one refused to swing in a different swing received at my baby shower. The moment we put her in it she would scream at the top of her lungs and we had to remove her. Feeling exhausted and really wanting 10 min to put her down during the day, I bought this swing. Surprisingly, she loves it!! I'm not sure if it's the multiple motions or more of the forward instead of side to side swinging she loves. I'm able to put her in it and she enjoys it, even napping in it! I will say it's slow to change patterns when she cries and a couple times it didn't change at all so hopefully it's not an issue with the swing. But right now it's been a game changer!

This will put my son right to sleep if he's tired and fussy and he also love to look at the mobile on the top. It's easy to use and I love all the different songs and all the settings. As well as the different way it swing so that I could find the perfect one for my son

We love it !! It's just low to the floor but we love

So advanced in features and looks. Impressive one..wow

I bought this in October, because I knew my daughter would get a lot of use from it. The baby came early and she is using this as a bassinet. They bought a bassinet, but the baby prefers the Sense2Soothe. The system is low-noise, and even the music is not disruptive when the rest of the family wants to watch TV.

I love this swing, the features are all great and the seat is deep enough I don't worry about my son slipping. The only thing I don't love is that the vibrator is kind of loud, with that said it bothers me not my son he stay quite in there. I also love that it was easy to put together and doesn't take up a ton of room in our small house.

Graco Sense2Soothe Swing We received this product as part of the Weespring Parent Panel. Our review is our honest opinion and we were not coerced into a positive review as a result of receiving this product. First of all, what a neat idea to have a baby swing that converts into a rocker. We kept our swing in the living room as this room is connected to our dining area in our split level house and was most accessible to where we were with our toddler playing. I could not easily remove the seat to transition to a rocker, but this is something I will look into doing more often as I have a toddler as well that needs to be in different areas of our home. We loved the idea of having a swing that could respond to our baby crying, changing modes until baby calmed down, however we felt that it didn't kick in until he was really screaming which was difficult to listen to while we"waited" for the cry mode to kick in. The changing motions also was not very smooth and seemed to make our baby cry harder as the swing figured out the "correct" setting to soothe our baby. We liked trying all of the different settings and sounds. Our son preferred the 3rd setting that rocked gently, as this helped him sleep the best. The highest speed setting was too fast for him and made him spit up a few times as we were trying different modes out. The 5-point harness fit our son well and seemed comfortable. The material is easy to clean and/or wipe down as needed for spit up messes. Swing appears comfortable for our little one and we look forward to using it to help manage our daily routine with our one month old and 22 month old. Thanks to the Weespring Parent Panel for providing us the opportunity to trial the Graco Sense2Soothe Swing

So I received this Graco Sense2Soothe for being apart of the weeSpring Parent Panel, all opinions are my own and no way influenced or encouraged by Weespring! As a mom the last thing you want to do is have a fussy baby or have no time to do stuff around the house. This graco sense2soothe swing is amazing! It seemed small since the box isn't bulky but it does take up about the same amount of space as a traditional baby swing which is a bummer for me. I also love that it can be turned into a bouncer which is super cool in my book. The whole point about this swing is the ability to sense when baby is crying and change settings to help soothe baby either back to sleep or to calm baby until the parent comes which is awesome. It is very easy to understand the setting and set up was pretty simple for me to understand. My little one loves it so much!

I recently received the Graco Sense2Soothe Swing as part of the weeSpring parent panel, and I absolutely love it! I have an infant and a toddler. So I am super busy trying to keep up with them both. The swing allows me to be able to truly be there for the both of them throughout the day. At first I was worried about the set up and the smart functions. It seemed intimidating. But it wasn't at all! It was quite simple. It's always frustrating for me when I buy a baby gear product. It always takes time to set up the product and lets be real, us parents don't have time for it. For once, it was different. I was able to put it together myself in less than 5 minutes, super easy! I received the swing with the 'sailor' design, which has adorable gender-neutral colors, and material is soft for our delicate babies. The seat itself is deep with high walls with the 5-point harness, which for me is important and the ultimate selling point knowing my baby will be safe and snug. It was easy to remove it from the base and use it as a rocker. This function made the swing really easy to transition from room to room chasing after my toddler. The swing has all of these customizable settings that helps you comfort and entertain your baby. It really works! I had fun experiencing the 8 different soothing motions, with/without the vibrations, the 3 different speeds, and the 15 different songs and sounds determining which one my baby liked. I love also having the option to have the swing rock back and forth or side to side. After some time trying it all out, I have found that her favorite setting is the tight U shaped motion, with vibration, on the slowest speed, with the white noise, and moving from side to side. My only negative issue with the swing is that the cry detection is just sensing for loud noises. So it will change up if you decide to vacuum or have a loud toddler while it is on. For me, my baby didn't mind the change up and slept through it. I recommend if you have a toddler to just set it to your own custom settings in 'Parent Mode' so that it won't change during your babies nap. I would absolutely recommend this swing for any new parent. I wish I had this for my first child and excited to have it for future children! I love how it can react to my baby's cry! It was super effective and helpful like a second hand. I am so impressed with the swing overall!

I was given this Baby Swing to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. This swing is great for customizing to your baby's preferences! There's a variety of of options for position of swing, different soothing sounds, and even has an adjustable vibration setting. I love that the swing has these multiple settings and can respond to our baby's cries, however, the volume on the swing could be louder and the moves between settings could be a smoother transition. While the base is very sturdy, it feels a tad bit cheap - on one of the settings, the swing clanks into the front of the base. It may just be the one I received, but the easy solve is to just not use this setting. One major bonus is that you can detach it from the base and use it as a stand alone rocker. It snaps together in minutes for easy use and would best be used for younger babies. Overall, a great option for a baby swing!

This swing is so versatile, I wish I would have had it in my home before the baby's arrival to use right away. Upon receiving the Graco Sense2Soothe Swing with Cry Detection Technology, I immediately took it out of the box, and I was surprised and quite pleased to see how easy it was to assemble. It didn't require the use of any tools or having to sit and read through a lengthy manual to try an figure out how to assemble it beforehand. It was quite simple,literally a quick snap in place and voila, ready to go. That is such a huge plus when considering baby gear, nobody likes to spend hours trying to figure out how to assemble something, it should be easy and user friendly from the beginning as with a new baby in the home, we're already busy at is. I've owned other swings and none have ever been this easy to assemble; Graco did a great job designing a swing that is very user friendly right out of the box. The swing boasts with different swing options such as swing, rock, cradle and glide and has many added features like white noise, soothing natural sounds, music, vibration, but the star and highlight of this swing is the Cry Detection technology. It is quite impressive to be honest, it uses all these features at different times when active. I place the baby in the swing when he is happy and content or asleep and when he starts to get fussy and cry, the swings cry detection sensor activates and adjusts the setting it is on to one that soothes the baby right away. The buttons on the swing panel are illuminated by a blue light and once the cry detection technology is active the lights turn green and the baby face button is brightly illuminated. I really like this feature, it's pretty innovative and cool. I found this technology to be very effective because it essentially does what you would be doing for you without you having to actually adjust the swing settings. It has been a lifesaver when I'm taking a quick shower. I just place the baby in his swing in the bathroom and if he starts to cry or get a little restless the swing adjusts on its own and the baby calms down. I can actually take showers now without having to have anyone at home to help me. As is easy as it was to assemble the swing, it has also been easy to transition it from a swing to a rocker and vice versa. I like this feature because if the baby is asleep, I like that I can move the baby from room to room as needed and with ease. In addition to the ease of use and the cry detection technology, you also have customizable settings. This is an added bonus as well because once you've used the swing over some time you know what works for your baby and you can program it with those settings and have those be the ones that turn on automatically when your baby is a little restless or crying in the swing instead of the automatic settings that adjusts with your babies movements and cries. I personally love this feature of this swing, it is one of my favorites as I know what works for my baby when it comes to soothing him. Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel and Graco for providing me with this swing to try and keep in return. This is a great product and parent must have.

This swing is extremely versatile and has a lot of options and allows me to find one that fits both of my babies. It is lightweight and easy to move around and the ability to remove the seat and use it as a rocker is amazing! My only dislike is that when it is in the rocker mode it is awkward to remove the seat. I was pleasantly surprised at just how quickly it responds to babies cries and adjusts to a new setting. It's also quiet in comparison to some of our previous seats. Big thank you to Graco and WeeSpring Parent Panel for sending me such an amazing product.

I hesitantly replaced my swing (that I loved) with this one and haven't regretted it for a second! I have twins so the variety of movements is awesome because they like different things (one loves to swing, the other to rock). The seat is a great size and I love that the seat can move side to side or front to back. It also takes up much less floor space than a traditional swing and if you have older children they can't swing it around (which was always happening). The sounds are also great, so happy to have the white noise! The rocker doesn't come off very gracefully, but I haven't really wanted to take it off anyway and the swing movements could be a little smoother but it doesn't seem bother the babies! I haven't used the customizable settings because I haven't needed to! I received this swing as a part of the weeSpring parent panel.

I was given this Baby Swing to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. I really wish that I would have gotten this right when my baby was first born because I think that it would have been an amazing swing for a newborn and would have been able to transition with him into infancy! I love that the swing has multiple settings and can respond to the baby cries, however I wish that the volume could go louder. I also think that the fact that you can detach it from the base and use it as a stand alone rocker is FANTASTIC basically making this a two for one. Prior to this we had a swing and a rock in play and we ended up just putting the rock and play and swing away and using this to consolidate space. Unfortunately my son isn't a huge fan of any swing and prefers to be held or just in a simple bouncer but I think that if he had used it from the beginning it could have been a life saver and I am very much looking forward to using it with our second child! Example: I bought this a month ago and am so happy that I did...

Thank you to weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with the Graco Sense2Soothe Swing. I had high hopes for this swing and it ultimately fell short of my expectations. Overall, the swing doesn't look sleek (plain looking plastic base) and is very clunky feeling. The motor is loud compared to the swing we had with our first baby and when it cycles through various motions, the movement is not smooth and can be jarring to baby. When we would manually switch to different motions, the swing took a long time to even move if it did at all. This was frustrating when we had a crying baby and the swing didn't swing (she is well under the weight limit of 25lbs in swing mode and 18lbs in rocker mode). I'm hoping we didn't receive a defective swing because it would have been nice to hit the heart button for our favorite saved setting and know our baby would be soothed. We did not use the rocker mode often since it wasn't always easy to remove. The swing was easy to assemble and use right out of the box and didn't take up valuable floor space. I did really like that there are many options for customizing motion, vibration, swing/recline position, music, music volume and speed. What sets this swing apart from others is the Cry Detection technology, which did a decent job at detecting cries (as indicated by the baby button turning green from blue) and responding quickly. A couple times, it did change positions when baby was sound asleep and woke her up which was annoying. When the swing did swing, our baby was soothed and looked comfortable asleep. The fabric is soft and the seat is deep though the harness strap, specifically the bottom one could be a bit longer. I really liked that it has an AC adapter so that we didn't need to buy a ridiculous number of batteries. My favorite feature would have to be the music. It was not annoying as with many other baby products and the lowest volume was actually not loud which I really appreciated. The mobile is a nice feature, though nothing too exciting and it does swivel so that I could easily put baby in and take her out. The Graco Sense2Soothe swing is a great concept with the Cry Detection and the ability to customize the motion is great, but I wish the motor wasn't as loud, the motions less jerky, and the control panel a bit sleeker.

I never thought I needed an infant swing until I received this one from the weeSpring Parent Panel. Now raising my second son, this swing keeps my infant entertained while I accomplish tasks for my toddler. This swing helps minimize the chances that I have two young kids screaming at me simultaneously. The swing is highly customizable, with a few swinging motions, swing speeds, vibration intensities, audio types, and audio levels. I had no idea that a bottom-mounted seat could swing at all; I assumed these types were all bouncers. However, this is indeed a swing, and my infant finds all of the swinging motions to be quite soothing. The swing is gentle when initializing, slowly starting and then building the motion, rather than starting at the peak and rattling down like a rollercoaster. My son fell asleep within two minutes of being placed in it for the first time, and it was nowhere near nap time. He found this so soothing that it was a few days before I even witnessed the Cry Detection mode in action. The Cry Detection mode is pretty genius. If it hears my son crying, then it randomizes all of the swing and audio settings. If my son continues to cry then it randomizes everything again, and hopefully hits the right combination that soothes him. The genius of it is that it works in the same way any parent does: try anything and everything to stop the screaming. Unfortunately, the technology is not flawless: the microphone was sometimes triggered by the speaker or the swing gliders, so the swing would switch modes to his surprise; this was sometimes jarring to him since switching between swing modes can be loud. The seat is nicely deep, so no worries about him tipping over. Taking the seat off of the base was not easy since the unlocking mechanism is obscured by the seat fabric; I couldn't tell if the mechanism worked correctly, and just jiggled the seat until it was free from the base. Likewise, the recline angle mechanism was hidden, and was similarly confusing to change. The swing and base together are very large. While they are light enough to carry with one hand, the large dimensions make it cumbersome enough to require two hands to carry. This can be frustrating because I have to find somewhere to put my son before I can put him in the swing because I need both hands to move it. The hanging toys are adorable, but are difficult for a newborn to see when looking up at a background of white ceiling. The "Sailor" edition toys included a light gray bear with a mint-blue teething ring and a light gray moon. Like the rest of the swing, the toys are neutrally colored to fit with modern nursery decor. However, my son ignored the toys since the colors had little contrast and were not very entertaining for him. The swing provides variety, imperfect Cry Detection, somewhat cumbersome use, but in neutral and adorable aesthetics. The swing modes are very customizable, but my son does not need so many features since he does OK without the swing.

I was given this product to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel, and it came at the perfect time. We have a 4yo and a 2yo in addition to our 5mo baby, so we'd been looking for a solution that allows us to put baby girl down happily when we need to focus our attention on the two older kids. The swing did not disappoint - it covered all the basics and had some additional features that were really useful. The idea behind this swing is that it will respond to your baby's cries and help soothe them - it definitely does this and cycles through various settings until it senses that the baby has stopped crying. Once baby is happily settled, it maintains whatever settings helped calm them. However, I will say that it also responds inaccurately to her older brothers running around the house screaming and will change settings then, even if baby was perfectly happy. In that case, I just turned off the cry-detection feature and left her on her preferred settings and it was not really an issue. Another great thing about the swing is that you can remove the seat and take baby with you to another room, so it doubles as a rocker - having 3 kids and ALL their stuff in the house means I'm always looking for multi-functional/minimalist items. This one fit the bill and we were able to get rid of another rocker chair that we'd been using. The customizable settings were enough but not overwhelming, and the fact that you could have the seat rock front-to-back or side-to-side was another plus. My babies have all preferred front-to-back, so I was really excited to see that this swing could do both. The vibration also really helped soothe baby - although it sort of sounded like a loud truck was running, she didn't mind. There are sound options as well but we mostly just used the white-noise. And she also liked the simple hanging toys above, especially once she could reach them. Overall I'd say the highlights for us on this swing were the front-to-back motion, the small footprint, the EASY assembly (took me about 3 minutes), and while I wouldn't say the cry-detection was 100% effective, I do think it helped. The only con is that the movement could be a little smoother but honestly, baby didn't mind and she loves the swing so that's all that really matters in my book! It's also reasonably priced and I will happily recommend this to any future mamas looking for a swing.

When my little boy was born four weeks ago, it wasn't my second child, so I knew that having products around the house that serve multiple purposes is important for time and space saving. Overall the Graco Sense2Soothe swing is really great. The seat feels soft and seems comfortable for my one month old and it even has a very nice modern look to it. I like the ideas behind this swing, the cry detection is a cool concept and it did work. My baby would cry and it would quickly turn green and respond to his cries. My baby in particular did not exactly respond by being soothed quickly from the changes, but it was nice knowing that it was trying different methods to sooth him while I would be on my way from another room to respond to the crying baby. I thought that the control settings were fairly easy to understand after I looked through the manual. I like that the swing can be detached and become a rocker. It was fairly easy to remove and reset back into the base. It would have been been a little nicer if the rocker was a bit lighter but I was still able to move it from one room to another. I did need to bend down to look and make sure I had reattached it properly. I liked that the music options on the swing were not annoying when played for longer periods of time and I also appreciated that the sounds were never really that loud even when the volume was turned all the way up. One added bonus I found about this swing was that the location and size of the controls allowed me to easily change the settings or turn it on and off without having to bend down. Instead I was often able to just use my foot. Usually when I needed to turn on/off the swing I would have my hands full of stuff or with my baby. I liked that I could do this in a hands free way. A funny pro, but still it was great! The swing looks like it might be overly big and take up a lot of space but actually when I had it in position in my house it was easily tucked out of the way and didn't take up that much space. I also appreciated that it didn't have legs that stick out which can be tripping hazards, which has been a problem for me with other swings in the past. On the whole I think this is a great swing that has lots of great customizable features. If you only want to buy one swing/rocker this one would be a really great option. Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this product

Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this product. It is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!! Graco did an amazing job creating this swing. It is small and does not take up much space. I have had swings in the past that were massive and took up so much space. Plus the swing is not bulky either. The fact that the swing responds to my child's cry is quite impressive. I thought my daughter would have to scream at the top of her lungs to get the swing to respond. But no!!!! The sound recognition technology is very sensitive and picks up on even the smallest or most quiet cry. The many "swing" cycles and speeds offer a great variety of combinations for movement. The swing offers the ability to swing up and down or you can swivel the seat and swing left to right. My daughter enjoys the left to right motion with the vibration feature turned on. Speaking of the vibration feature.... The seat vibrates!! The very gentle vibration plus the swinging motion quickly puts my daughter to sleep. A mobile comes with the swing. At first I thought it would get in my way when I would go to lay my daughter down. Luckily, it swivels to left and right. This allows for me to lay her down without bumping into the mobile. Being able to detach the seat from the base and take the seat into other rooms is very helpful. The seat is very lightweight. Only thing is.... Detaching it from the base can difficult at times. The front latch is easy to detach but the back latch always remains engaged with the base. The swing offers three "sounds" that the baby can listen too. A stream of water, white noise, and a collection of various instrumental nursery rhymes. My daughter enjoys the white noise. I have to admit, after a while, the white noise is quite soothing. Overall, I would recommend this swing to anyone who needs one for their baby. It has a very quite motor, doesn't take up space, and the swing taylor's itself to your babies cry.

I like this swing, and it does everything it says it can, that said, it is a little on the bulky side. If you are in a small space I'm not sure this would be the swing you want, it is fine for a larger space. I can also be a little loud, especially on certain settings. I have used other brands of swings that are definitely quieter. Besides these two things, I think it's a great product. My baby is happy with it and we use it everyday, pretty frequently. It really does detect baby's cry and start cycling through the different settings to try to soothe him, I do wish that I could keep the sound effects turned off even when leaving it on the cry detection setting, but you cannot. If it is on cry detection mode it will cycle through the swing styles and speeds, the vibration settings, and the sound effects. I really like that it has the vibration with the swing, my baby definitely likes that. Changing it from rocker to swing and back is not difficult, and I like the idea that you can do that, multiple uses in one product, and you can move the rocker portion to different rooms. I don't typically use it as just the rocker because my baby cries if he is not always in motion. I like the overall design of the swing, the style of the seat, and the height of it, it is a little taller than other swings I have tried, which is nice with two toddlers running around and playing. Baby does lay back in this swing a little more than others I have tried, which is great with my very young baby, but he may not like it as much as he gets older and wants to sit up more. I was given this product by the WeeSpring Parent Panel in exchange for my honest review.

First off, thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this product. We received this item when my son was 4 months and weighed around 14lbs. The max weight for this is 18lbs so we knew that we wouldn't be using it for long but still have gotten so much use in this little time. There were good things and not so good things about this swing but overall we would definitely purchase this as a gift for someone expecting, my son loves it even at 5 months and will probably be upset when he can't use it anymore. The cry activated feature was great for when I was showering or cooking because I didn't need to stop what I was doing to get the swing started. The downside of this feature is that once you select your settings and lock it in parent mode it's difficult to change them, I still haven't been able to figure out how even after referring to the manual. The removable seat was something I really appreciated especially when his toddler brother wanted to sit with him on the floor and help bounce him. The seat is a little difficult to remove especially the first couple of times but you eventually get the hang of using it, I found placing it back to be a bit of a challenge, I kept having to get down to look under to make sure it clipped in place. The fabric on the seat is great, it can easily be wiped or thrown in the wash. The 5 point harness is always a great plus especially with squirmy babies like mine. The colors were nice, warm tones, nothing too vibrant so it matched well to our decor. There are 4 adjustments to how the swing moves, each one better than the last, we especially love the swaying motion. The musical/nature tones were soothing and can be adjusted to a louder volume which was great when I was showering because usually he can't hear anything over the water noise. My favorite feature was definitely the fact that it is NOT battery operated, it plugs in and I never have to worry about having extra batteries, the cord is very slim so you're not tripping over it and it's not an eyesore. Overall we would definitely recommend this product!!

I was excited to receive the Graco Sense2Sooth swing to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. The main feature to set this swing apart from others is that it was designed to be a "smart" swing that changes it's settings when it senses the baby's cry. It can be used in "Graco Mode," which cycles through 8 preset sequences, OR in "Parent Mode," which allows the parent to predetermine the settings based on their baby's preferences. The cry detection feature only worked about 50% of the time for us. I like the idea, but it seems hard to put into play with the assumption that the swing will be placed in a busy room with other noises to filter out. Regardless, there are other aspects that make this a great product. To me, the most important feature in a swing is whether the motion is able to keep my baby happy. This swing provides awesome movement and instantly calms my 5 month old every time we use it. There are 4 different motions and the maximum intensity level is quite high. There is an optional vibrate feature as well, all powered by an outlet with no batteries necessary. The swing can face towards the front or the side, which provides even more options so baby doesn't get bored. The seat can be removed from the base and used as a rocker (not attached to a power source, so there is no electronic motion). The whole unit is quite bulky/heavy so it's nice to have the portable seat to move room to room instead of having to buy an additional piece of baby gear for that purpose. It was difficult for me to get the hang of removing and replacing the rocker. The back part always seemed to get stuck, which made me nervous that I was going to damage something when trying to move it. The swing has a modern aesthetic with a nice pattern. This is important to me because I like my baby gear to blend in with my home. The material feels soft and comfortable and there are 2 cute toys on the little mobile. There are 10 different songs, 4 nature sounds, and 1 white noise option. The swing will cycle through the 10 songs, but you can also skip through them if desired. The swing itself is a bit noisy as it moves. It can also start out jerky or too slow and sometimes needs manual directing to get the motion going at the right pace. Despite the few glitches, this is a great option for someone who wants something with lots of movement options and more features than an average swing.

I was excited to test the Graco Sense2Soothe Swing as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel, since I had just had a new baby. I received the swing a couple of weeks ago and took it out of the box immediately. I was pleasantly surprised by how nice the swing looks, the neutral colors especially. It is also a smaller footprint than most swings, which I was very happy about as well. I have another popular compact swing and it was not much larger than that, which was good since our living room is small. What I liked: - Neutral colors, small footprint - It seems very comfortable for baby, with a nice bucket seat, bonus that it can recline - There are many motion and sound options, including vibration - I love that the seat can come off to become a standalone rocker - The toys are cute and attractive - Very easy to assemble - The seat can face forward or rotate to either side, which then doubles the available motions - My 6 week old loves it! What I didn't like: - It's pretty loud. The TV drowns out the sound but if it's a quiet room you can definitely hear it. - The movements are kind of jerky. Baby does not seem bothered by it though. - For a tech-driven product, I was surprised that it doesn't have an app to control from your phone. It would have been very convenient, especially if you're across the room when baby starts to fuss. - I haven't yet noticed the sense2soothe activate, and my baby has cried quite loudly in it a couple of times. I'm not sure exactly how it is sensed, but I was a little disappointed that it doesn't seem to recognize when he needs to be soothed, at least not before I go comfort him. I wasn't initially sure if I was going to keep using the swing after I tested it out, because my baby did like our other one pretty well. But he's slept for several hours at a time in this one, which is so nice when I'm trying to clean or eat dinner or give attention to my toddler. I really do wish the swing had an app, but otherwise I would recommend it to a friend for sure.

I was super excited to receive this swing as part of the WeeSpring Parent Panel. I was very intrigued by the cry detection technology and interested in testing it out. My 3 month old son absolutely loved the swing from the minute we put him in it. I love that you can select from music or white noise/sounds. The different swing patterns are really helpful as well. My son likes this swing MUCH more than the other swing we have. This swing helps rock him to sleep or sometimes he just lays there contently looking at the mobile and enjoying the swinging. We tried testing the cry technology and at first it seemed like it didn't work at all. He would be wailing and the green light wouldn't come on and nothing would happen. After a few days, it started picking up his cry and would adjust the swing pattern and change the sounds. It calms him down sometimes. I do think that the variety of the swing patterns are helpful in soothing him. It is very convenient to be able to remove the seat and transition it from room to room. If you are looking for a high tech swing that is very versatile, this is the swing for you!

Thanks to WeeSpring Parent panel we were able to test this swing out with our baby girl! Pros - It was very easy to assemble, about three pieces. I love the colors and my baby loves the design of the seat. The seat makes her feel safe and snug, unlike other swings we have tried. I love love that you can remove the seat and take it with you wherever......we even took it to a friends house! I also love that you can rotate the seat so the baby is facing you or facing the side so that the swing motion is front to back or side to side....most other swings do not have this feature. While I really love this swing and so does my baby Iam not sure if my model is defective or if this is how its supposed to be. The movement of the swing is very jerky and not smooth, to the point where i shut it off because she looks like she is getting whiplash. Sometimes when i choose a motion setting it moves to a position and then just sits in one place and doesn't move. I love the cry detection feather ( when it works) if my baby squeals or coos it changes settings when really she was happy....or sometimes it dosn't change when she is crying. I really do think that maybe something is just wrong with this model and despite it being jerky and shaky my baby does love it! I would recommend it to a friends, but maybe suggest calling the company to get some tips.

I was given the Graco Sense2Soothe swing by the weeSpring Parent Panel and I'm surprisingly IN LOVE with it. I say surprisingly because my colicky baby hates most baby gear. She loves movement, but she wants ME to hold her all day and bounce her around the house, and I just can't do this when I'm also trying to meet the needs of my three year old. When the swing arrived I was excited but skeptical, and I am officially a big fan and promotor of this swing. To begin with, the swing is visually appealing. Its clean, white, and light accent color scheme design prevents it from being an eyesore in the living room. Off the bat, this was a huge selling point for me, because Baby gear has recently taken over my house, and for the most part, it's all loud, vibrate colors that scream, "welcome to the circus." The irony is uncanny. Prior to receiving the swing from weeSpring we were the owners of a basic, generic swing, a baby glider, and various other electronic rockers that simply collected dust in the corner, because my daughter would only last about 3-5 min in them before becoming extremely fussy, and by the time I got her strapped in, I was having to unbuckle her and get her out. The Graco Sense2Soothe swing bucket seat is deep and adjustable in position, which creates a cradle like hold for Baby, much like momma's arms. The seat can be reclined or inclined to meet baby's sleep needs, or his or her desire to look around and engage with their surroundings. The seat can also be removed and reattached perpendicular to the base of the swing if Baby prefers more of a side to side motion versus a front to back motion. The seat itself can be removed from the base of the swing and it becomes portable if Baby needs to be transported to a different room. This is a very nice feature if Baby falls asleep and you don't want to jostle him or her when moving into a new room. This is also nice when momma needs to move about the house and she wants to keep Baby close. When removed from the base, the bucket seat acts as a manual rocker as well. The swing has 4 different motion options, and 3 different speeds, which is nice, because for one, not all babies like the same type of movement, and for two, we all know babies can easily need a variation in movement to remain content in the swing. In addition, the swing has a vibration feature, which is an ideal feature for most babies, but most definitely colicky babies. The swing also has 3 different sound options (nature, white noise, and music). The music sound feature has a variation of tone songs, all of which are calming to both Mom and baby's ears. There is a volume level increase and decrease option on the swing for the sounds, and the top volume level is still not very loud. Since most babies sleep in a variation of loud white noise, this could be seen as a disadvantage if the swing is used for sleep. However, in my opinion, the low volume level on the sound feature would not be enough of a reason to deter me from purchasing this product. The baby cry detection feature is probably the coolest thing about this swing, and what separates it from the rest on the market. Since my little one is general pretty fussy, I knew we would surely see this feature in action in no time. When my daughter was having an "overtired and I've had enough" moment during the witching hour of the day, I placed her in the swing to see how the cry detection worked. When she started to fuss on and off a bit, the blue face remained blue instead of turning green, to detect cry, and I was confused by this, but once she started to really wail, the detection jumped into action. I was a bit surprised it didn't detect her on and off fussing, but the more I thought about it that made sense, because Baby fussing, cooing, and talking is sometimes not something that needs intervention, and it appears the swing is programmed to agree with this idea. The cry detection can be programmed to respond two different ways. Graco has a preprogrammed suggestion (the star button) of what it believes would be most soothing to a baby in distress, or the parent can manually program the swing (the heart button) to operate how he or she believes Baby would be best soothed when upset. My husband and I have both agreed that the programmed Graco button seems to provide a great combination of movement, sound and vibration that is most soothing to our daughter, and so we've had no need to program an alternative option, but this is definitely a nice option for particular babies. I must admit, again, I was truly skeptical if this feature would actually soothe my baby when she was upset, and i can honestly say it did. I couldn't believe it. I said this previously, but we've tried several different Baby swings and rockers, ranging from inexpensive to "this better be worth the money" expensive, and my daughter has disliked them all, with the exception of the Graco Sense2Soothe. Well done Graco. My little one is a tough critic and your swing has passed the test. I will definitely be recommending this swing to my mommy friends in the future. Thank you to the weeSpring panel for bringing this swing into our lives. This tired momma needed some mini breaks throughout the day.

I was super excited to try this swing given all the features it comes with but overall disappointed with its performance. The cry detection initially did not detect my son's cry. I'm not sure if it's because he's a newborn (he's currently 4 weeks old) or the sensitivity of the sensor. Once it did detect his cries, I feel like it shuffled too quickly thru the options when attempting to calm him. The swing would also kick into the highest speed at times which was more alerting than calming. Honestly my son likes it best when it's not moving, with some vibration and white noise. I like being able to save settings that he has responded well to. That is my favorite feature. The rocker is easy to remove and although I don't move it around to different rooms yet, I can see this as a perk as he grows. I'm hoping that as my son gets older, my opinion on this swing improves. Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this Baby Swing.
