I like this swivel swing but prefer the older swing that just goes back and forth. This one is lower to the ground, doesn’t move as fast, and is supposed to be a natural motion. While it does seem to have a natural movement my daughter (3 month old) would sleep in her old swing and this one will only sit in it for a few minutes. I do prefer the color scheme, lights, and several sounds.... my daughter doesn’t seem to care about any of those things. It does have a app to connect to but this feature seems useless to me as when you put your child in you turn it on and it doesn’t go off till you pick up your child so I don’t know that it’s helpful to have it connect to you phone. It is easy to take off and wash which is really nice!
