I can't comment on the Graco one, but I got the Fisher Price one for DS and he has loved it, and I think it was money well spent (well spent by his doting granny anyway). It's really comfy, and he has been known to have daytime naps in it, and babies can set off the music and lights on it by pulling the animals at the side. It is still very useful for settling DS.

Ds loved the fisher price one. It was a godsend for putting him down for naps etc in. Also for shipping him to relatives!
He loved the pull toys and the lights.

I got ds' swing when he was about two months IIRC - it's very supportive and definitely fine for before they can hold their own heads up. The music is reasonable enough - not gone insane yet! I think the swinging speed is fine.

Has anyone had experience of the Graco swing, please?

Fiher price one fantastic from birth till baby can start twisting himself/herself. Friend had the graco one- i didn't rate it compared to the fisher price one. the music could keep her entertained for hours- a must in my opinion. plus i sold mine on ebay for £40 so in reality it only cost me £30.

We had a Graco one, DS2 really liked it. I felt it was sturdy and good quality (although it didn't like rechargeable batteries). I bought it from kiddiecare.com at a very reasonable price.
