Cradles Baby in Soothing Comfort The unique nestling design of the Soothing Motions Glider helps baby relax and rest, while a gentle gliding motion moves from side-to-side or front-to-back at two calming speeds. The deep cradle seat properly supports back, sides, and head, and a canopy provides a secure, enclosed feeling without preventing you from seeing your child. 16 total songs--eight that soothe and eight that entertain--set the mood and keep baby engaged, allowing tired moms and dads to rest their arms and backs while knowing baby is safe and comfy.
Helps Encourage Healthy Development When baby is cranky and holding her doesn't seem to help, the Soothing Motions Glider gives you a simple option to help smooth things over. The removable toy bar features two plush toys that dangle and delight baby while helping to strengthen her gross motor skills. The varying melodies also stimulate her auditory sense, so she's developing key skills while playing or resting. Several options keep things cozy, fun, and convenient for both parents and baby: a plush insert ensures additional head support; carry handles make for easy portability; and a machine-washable seat makes clean-up a snap. Finally, the seat rotates 360 degrees so you can easily position it to keep baby facing mom or dad.
The Soothing Motions Glider measures 7.4 x 19 x 24.5 inches (WxHxD), weighs 15.8 pounds, and requires four "D" batteries (not included).

Slightly less than expected, but serves the purpose,

My wife and I were deciding between a Fisher Price two-way swing or this two-way glider as our "tool" to help put our newborn to sleep when she's less than cooperative. In the end, we decided on this "glider" because of the ability to pick it up and move it around. Here are my thoughts: (1) at first, I thought it was more like a solid infant car seat with a motor attached beneath. It is not. It's just a hammock draped over a tubular metal frame--quite flimsy. But it gets the job done. (2) The arch from which the toys dangle is NOT a handle that you can use to move it; it's just a non-weight-bearing tube from which the toys dangle. To move it, you grab two handles at the ends of the seat. (3) The motor is much quieter than what I expected after reading some of the reviews here. Maybe in a very quiet room, the motor noise may be noticeable. But the "noise" is never annoying or intrusive, and it doesn't disturb baby. (4) The faster of the two movement speeds is probably about...Read more

Good but pricey gift for newborns,

The good: The gliding mechanism in our unit has lasted six months. I never thought it would make it that far! The sound quality of the music is very good. This is a very good little bed for newborns, I must say.
The bad: The gliding motion is too slow even on the fast setting (icon of a hare versus a tortoise, or low). To actually rock a baby to sleep the gliding needs to be faster. There is no calming vibration option, a huge omission.
The ugly: I would say the correct price for this glider is $45 or less.

We purchased this glider rather than a traditional bouncer because of its soothing motion and versatility. We have used it every day for the last 3 months and the first set of batteries has just worn out...wow. My son loves it, a must have for any parent. Easy to assemble, easy to use - this is vastly superior to reg, 'bouncy' seats.
