Summer Infant Cuddle Me Musical Swing

I purchased this swing with my husband and mother-in-law. We were taken by how cute it was in the store, and cute it is! The elephants are cute. The womb sounds are cute. The swing is blessedly quiet. It has everything going for it, and then you try to put a baby in it. The 'pod' portion of this swing is completely ill-designed! If the swing is tipped downward, the baby looks like he will fall out, except for the harness! If it is tipped upward, so that the baby can look directly up at the elephants, the poor child's head is uncomfortably pushed cockeyed. It is a shame, because everything else about this swing works. My handy husband even thought he would try to fix the seat portion by rigging up something else. Alas, I'm thinking we need to buy an entirely new swing. I just don't want to tell my mother in law because she thinks it so cute.

This swing is not designed well. I used it a handful of times with my son and am currently using it with my daughter, but I wish we had bought a different one. The seat isn't deep enough so it always look like they're uncomfortable. It is definitely not long enough. My daughter is 2 months old and already her head is up to the brown border which makes her look even more uncomfortable. I find the harness cumbersome- by the time I've got her strapped in, she's fussing (and she's not a generally fussy baby). We even removed the tray because it was difficult to close and didn't fit well between her legs (when she was first born).

Definitely do your research on swings before picking one!

Its really cute and even easy to put together but mine came with stains on the seat belt and the tray's button was broken off. Very disappointed
