Product Information

As a (new) parent, we know you can never get enough of holding your little one. But with everything you need to do around the house, sometimes it’s nice to have both hands free. Since it weighs 25 pounds, moving this swing is a two-person job. However, the bulk of the weight is in the seat, so removing it makes the job much easier. Despite this, we actually think this swing is a space saver since it has two products in one, which was the biggest selling point for us.

Ingenuity AnyWay Baby Swing, Portable Foldable Infant Seat with Vibrations, Nature Sounds, 5-Speeds, Multi-Directional Movement, Suitable for 0-9 Months, 6-20 lbs (Spruce) This Bright Starts Swing is a great option for families who live in a smaller home or are always on the go. We found it to be lightweight, easy to carry, and are convinced that it can fit inside the trunk of any car. It’s also convenient to store, given that it stands up on its own or lays flat when folded and weighs just 4 pounds. This Munchkin swing moves in a smooth side-to-side motion that seemed pretty relaxing to us. It plays 12 different sounds and the noise level ranges from 55.5-71.7 dBA. You can also stream your own music on this swing via Bluetooth, and we liked that the settings could be operated by the remote control. Although the seat doesn’t recline, Barrett confirmed that it was the appropriate level for a baby. The swing comes with a removable toy bar that includes one bunny plush toy, which helps to keep your baby entertained. The GentleTouch control pad allows you to easily adjust the music and volume without having to press any buttons. The swing also includes a timer function with options for 30, 45, or 60 minutes of swinging, and it automatically shuts off after 2 hours for safety. In addition to looking nice, this swing felt safe and sturdy when we tested it. It has a five-point harness that feels secure and the mobile is hung far enough away that a baby can’t reach it. This swing is also super quiet; without the music on, it was almost silent, and with the music on, the sound was only 40-50 dBA, which is quieter than the hum of a refrigerator.

As long as you dedicate space in your home for it, we think you’ll appreciate this swing’s wide, supportive legs that provide a safe and stable experience for your baby. Features: 3-direction swaying motion, 2 modes of use (stationary seat or swing), soothing vibrations, 19 melodies with nature sounds, WhisperQuiet technology, compact fold design, machine washable seat pad, removable toy bar.

Overall, this swing felt pretty sturdy during our testing process. It has a five-point safety harness, which did a good job of containing the 15-pound sandbag we placed in the seat. It moves side to side in a pretty smooth manner and has five different speeds. However, the sound reached 79.7 dBA at the highest volume (louder than a vacuum cleaner) and 66.1 dBA at the lowest volume when we tested it. We know you could look at your baby all day. Cassia rotates 360 degrees, so wherever you are in the room – you never have to miss a smile. In terms of design, this swing has several unique features. The first is the seat cover, which was super soft and felt like it was made from minky fabric. The second is the optional bug net, which although we didn’t test, we could see how this would be useful for parents who want to bring the swing outside in the summer months—which would be a breeze because the swing is pretty compact and lightweight. While the bouncer portion wasn’t the lightest, we think a parent who is recovering from childbirth could carry it without trouble, especially because it’s equipped with a handle. Just be sure not to carry the bouncer while your baby is in it and only use the bouncer on the floor. Using this swing was easy to do, too, because the dials and switches weren’t fancy and felt very straightforward.

Compared to the other products we tested, this Munchkin Infant Swing is very compact—especially in terms of vertical space. It stands 15 inches tall, which is the same height as a bowling pin, and weighs as much as a gallon of milk. Although it required two people to remove the seat from the base, we could easily move it from room to room and store it under a bed or couch. One of the key features of this swing is its ability to play soothing music and sounds. With ten built-in melodies and five nature sounds, you can create a calming environment for your little one. The swing also includes a convenient toy bar with two toys, keeping your baby entertained and engaged. The three-point harness system ensures your baby’s safety while using the swing. The swing offers two adjustable recline positions, allowing you to find the perfect angle that suits your baby’s needs and preferences. The automatic motion detection responds to your baby’s movements, adjusting the swinging motion accordingly. This feature helps to maintain a peaceful and uninterrupted sleep for your little one. According to Barrett, the MamaRoo is very sturdy and safe. She also complimented how smoothly it moved, which we think is this swing’s main selling point. In terms of noise level, its sounds range from 46-68 dBA, with the lowest being the hum of the motor. However, its frame is rather bulky and it weighs close to 20 pounds, which could make moving the MamaRoo challenging for parents who are recovering from childbirth.

Now that you have an overview of the Ingenuity Soothe ‘n Delight Compact Portable Baby Swing, you can make an informed decision about whether it meets your needs and preferences. With its convenient features and soothing capabilities, this baby swing offers a comfortable and enjoyable experience for both you and your little one. The modern and stylish design of the Maxi-Cosi Cassia Swing, Essential Graphite is another reason why we are big fans of this product. It fits seamlessly into any home decor, allowing you to keep your baby comfortable without compromising on aesthetics. In terms of portability, we could easily move this swing from room to room since it has a small footprint and weighs only 10 pounds. However, it doesn’t fold, so it requires some space commitment (albeit temporary). Despite this, we like that the seat rotates 360 degrees and thought it was really easy to change the incline, even though it requires two hands to do so. Lyndsey Garbi, MD, co-founder and chief medical officer of Blueberry Pediatrics and medical review board member at Verywell Family The Graco Simple Sway Swing offers a compact design and gentle swaying motion, making it a great option for small spaces. However, some users found the swing to be noisy and the speed options to be limited. Ingenuity Anyway Sway 5-Speed Multi-Direction Portable Foldable Baby Swing & Infant Seat with Vibrations, Nature Sounds, 0-9 Months 6-20 lbs (Spruce)The sleek look and feel of this swing was appealing to us, and we loved the cozy, reversible seat cushion. And in addition to being compact, with just two parts assembling it was a breeze and took only three minutes. To begin testing, we gathered a team of 10 Verywell Family editors (most of whom are parents) at the Verywell Testing Lab in New York City. We evaluated each baby swing according to the following key criteria: The fact that we could operate the Jool Baby Nova swing with a remote control made being a busy parent a whole lot easier. From the comfort of the couch, we were able to adjust every feature on the swing, including the speed, volume, music, and timer. We also liked that we could stream our own music on the swing via USB or Bluetooth. The MamaRoo has five swing modes, five speeds, and plays four different sounds. Its sleek, white design gives it a modern, space-age feel and its mobile ornaments can be removed and used as baby toys. Although the touch screen on the control panel took some getting used to, we think it’s pretty cool that the seat reclines for a younger baby and sits upright for older babies. We also like that the harness and seat are padded and can be removed and cleaned in the washing machine.

Now, let’s delve into the details of each of these baby swings and see what makes them stand out from the rest. Trust us, with all the options available, finding the right one can be a bit overwhelming. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! Graco Easy Swinging Swing direction swaying motion, 2 modes of use (stationary seat or swing), soothing vibrations, 19 melodies with nature sounds, WhisperQuiet technology, compact fold design, machine washable seat pad, removable toy barMaxi-Cosi Cassia – a stylish and smart electric swing for babies from birth to 9 kilos – was developed for moments like these to lend a helping hand. The biggest selling point to this swing is how lightweight and compact it is—moving it around and storing it is a breeze! We also found the music to be quiet (noise level ranges from 59.6-67.6 dBA) and the music is sweet and soothing. Another plus: the fabric is removable and machine washable. Parents and caregivers should also make sure their baby does not fall asleep in the swing. “If a baby falls asleep in the swing, he or she should be moved to a flat and firm sleeping surface as soon as possible,” says Lyndsey Garbi, MD, co-founder and chief medical officer of Blueberry Pediatrics and medical review board member at Verywell Family. This is because swings are positioned at an incline, which could cause a baby to position their head in such a way that they can’t breathe. One of the reasons we like the Ingenuity Soothe ‘n Delight Compact Portable Baby Swing is its compact and portable design. This swing easily folds up for compact storage, making it convenient to take with you when visiting family or going on trips. You can even bring it to your grandparents’ house and beyond without any hassle.
