I cant decide, and I've actually been dreaming about it!

I cant decide, and I've actually been dreaming about it!

So DH and I got the Baby Einstein swing for the shower and when he put it together he felt that it rocked too much (in an unsturdy manner) and was a piece of junk.

We had a BRU coupon so we bought this swing instead, but have not set it up yet

BRU Swing

it was only $89.99 with the coupon.

THen we went to BBB and saw this swing

http://www.gracobaby.com/catalog/product.aspx?modelNumber=1B00JCR&subCatId=107

We really liked it b/c the swing actually comes off to be a bouncer! You just push in the two red tabs on the side of the swing and you can take the baby out and carry it around or set it on the floor.

It was 119.00 in BBB which is more than the other swing, and we already have a bouncer so its not like we REALLY need that feature, but I find it to be pretty cool.

Which would you get?Chat Icon

I got the Graco Lovin' Hug swig. It looks very sturdy compared to many that i have seen.

My friend has the one where you can take the seat off and she loves it!

I would probably buy the combo swing, since it seems like that's the one you really want. You can always return the bouncer you have, that way you can use the credit from the bouncer to cover the additional cost. Or if the money isn't too much of a concern and you really like the combo swing you can always leave the other bouncer you have at your mom or MIL's house.

I like the swing/bouncer combo - it looks really neat. If you can/want to take back the bouncer you originally got, get the one from BBB.

Otherwise I'd just go with the other swing.. Very nice choices though!

The combo swing looks cool. I never saw that one before.

I have the Baby Einstein and LOVE IT!!!! I even got one for my parent's house.


ETA: When I just went back to really look at it I noticed that the toys seem pretty far away up top.

It is hard for babies to see that far. Can they be moved down?

honestly I thought the baby einstein was fine, but he was insisting so...

That was a complaint I saw on another teddy bear swing that was similar, the mobile is too far back for the baby to see...

Is that a good enough reason to get the one I dont really need?Chat Icon

I like that 2nd swing (greenish one). I like the look of it a whole lot better and if it is more functional - you win!

i like the both of them but the idea of the 2nd one is kinda cool.

does it come off easy enough where if she falls asleep and u want to move her u can take off the bouncy part and carry it with you?? that would be nice.
