Overview
This is a battery powered infant swing from Bright Starts built for the newborn to 9 month stage, with a foldable frame for storage or travel and a 20 lb maximum weight limit.
It runs on 4 C batteries that are not included, and leans on TrueSpeed weight sensing to hold a steady swing speed as your baby gains weight rather than needing constant manual adjustment. The frame folds down for storage between uses or for taking it to a relative's house, which sets it apart from bulkier stationary swings.
- 6 speeds with WhisperQuiet motor
- 10 built-in melodies
- 2-position recline
- Foldable frame for storage or travel
Who it's for
Parents of a newborn up to about 20 lbs who want a light, foldable swing rather than a large stationary unit, and who don't mind sourcing batteries themselves.
Pros and cons
- Folds flat for storage or travel
- Toy bar with 2 toys removes on its own
- TrueSpeed sensing adjusts to baby's growing weight
- 5-point harness and non-slip feet
- Needs 4 C batteries, not included
- 20 lb weight limit caps use around 9 months
- No corded power option listed
Performance notes
Six speed settings run through Bright Starts' WhisperQuiet motor, and TrueSpeed weight sensing technology reads baby's weight to hold the swing at a consistent pace as they grow, rather than slowing on its own over time. Ten melodies play through the built in speaker, and the toy bar lifts off when you need to pick baby up without unclipping anything else.
