Mamas & Papas Starlight Swing Natural

My husband bought this, impressed with all the fancy features that came with it: i-pod connection, light show, music, automatic swing. In reality we have hardly used it; our son cries nearly every time we put him in it, the straps are very difficult to fasten and the strap between the legs seems very wide and uncomfortable. The lights are too small for baby to see and we've never used the i-pod connection. A real waste of money for us!

We were bowled over by the features on this swing - lightshows, iPod connection, etc. In reality, however, what you really need in a swing is a place where you can sit your baby easily and comfortably while you are making dinner or doing the housework. This swing is not particularly easy to put your baby in, nor does it seem comfortable as the straps always seem to make red marks on my son's legs. The light show is so small that babies cannot see it very well and we have never used the iPod function! Definitely not our best buy!
