While I did like the Fisher Price Space Saver swing I do feel like it was a bit of a waste of money. My mom bought this swing for my daughter because she was very colicky during the first few months of her life and we always had a hard time getting her to settle down and go to sleep. I had hoped that a swing would calm her down especially since this particular swing also vibrated as well as played music too. Well, we were very wrong in our hopes because this swing barely got used. This particular swing did not quiet my daughter down at all like we had hoped which meant that I still wasn't able to get things done around the house because I still had to worry about a fussy baby. I had hoped I would be able to use this swing to sit her in and keep her calm as I got house work done but I couldn't. After getting pass the colicky stage she had also figured out how to slide out of this swing so I didn't see a need for it anymore. The only thing that I think my daughter did enjoy was the music but that was when she was actually quiet enough to even listen to it.

This swing is very useful! Versatility This swing works as a swing, and a vibrating seat at the same time. The left side has buttons for the swinging and for the music. On the left, there is a button for the calming vibrations. Durability It's very sturdy, and very easy to put together. The swinging part runs the batteries dead pretty quickly, but the batteries in the vibrating side last much longer! Ease of Use It's very easy to use. It was very easy to put together. Safety One thing I love about this seat is that it has harness straps, so if she tries to sit up, she can't flip herself over. Features There is a little latch at the bottom of the swing, and the other part of the latch is on the base of the swing. To use it at a vibrator, you just connect the latches so that the swing can't move. I love not having to move her back and forth between the swing and vibrating seat because this seat does both. The only bad thing I can say about it is that the vibration on this seat isn't as strong as most seats I've seen, but my daughter doesn't seem to mind that at all!

I always loved Fisher Price products and the baby swings were a favorite product of ours when our children were little. Now Fisher Price has a new Swing and it is fantastic.It is included in their  Precious Planet series and it is absolutely awesome. This swing is soothing motion with music that is calming. The vibration or moment of the swing soothe the baby and they love looking at the colorful toys on the overhead mobile.The baby can listen to a variety of six different sons and each one is great. The colors of the swing and mobile provide lots for the baby to enjoy and will stimulate interest instead of boredom. The deep cozy seat is adjustable for baby's comfort and I love the size as it doesn't take up so much space and appear less clutter than the old style swing. For safety it has a harness which helps keep baby secure. I think this could easily be used from birth until the little one can sit alone.  The swing does require four C size batteries.

I love this swing. It is so compact! I can easily move it from room to room. We needed to save space so we purchased this swing and I love that it really doesn't take up the kind of space a larger swing would but still provides my son with comfort and the soothing nature of a swing. The padding of the swing really isnt that comfortable so we did need to put a blanket under his head for some extra cushion, but that is the only negative i can think of. The battery life is pretty substantial as well, though rechargable batteries wouldn't be a bad idea. I also like that the swing can lock in place and be used as a stationary seat. It's like having two seats in one :-) also, the vibrations really are soothing for my son. it is sturdy, easy to transport, and compact for spacesaving.

We have this fisher price space saver swing. Overall i can say this is a good swing for a good price. It can be used as a seat when we lock the swing in the bottom.The colors are so bright and vibrant, my baby loves the toy and she talks with it when she is awake. I started using this swing when she was 2 and half months old. She was securly strapped with five point harness and the swing seat gives a coxy feeling , she will doze into sleep within minutes. Its very light weight and portable , i had a tall and big one for the first baby and i feel difficult in moving that from room to room , this i can just lift with one hand even if i hold the baby in another hand. the music is very soothe to the ears and it saves the battery by switching off quite some time. This is battery operated , i have to tall that , it gives good battery life, i havent changed it for the past 3 months and i am using daily atleaast for 2 hrs. overall i recomend this swing the only drawback i find in this swing the straps are little complicated and tight, but its very secure,

I like this fisher-price precious planet space saver swing and seat product because it has vibrating colors and it has very spontaneous features on it. My brother uses it and sometimes he even falls offf of it. It is very easy to travel with when going shopping, beach, or somewhere such as at a vacation. This product isnt boring but we need to put batteries in it, that is fine with me. it is a great price when you need to save and stock up with money. Sometimes i even sit on it and do not let my brother sit on and, so he cries. It is very funny when he cries because his face looks so weird. When children are being irritating nad just tired, its great for children ebcauese they have a little swing to go on and it also has theis colorful design that attracts my little brother and sister. They love going on this swing which also gives me time to do my own business but at the same time they are also having fun and not fighting for a w hile.

I used this Fisher-Price Precious Planet Space Saver Swing for my youngest daughter. With two older kids, it's important to save space and keep the baby occupied. Abby is now four months old and is a huge fan of the toys above her head. She will sit in the swing for long periods oftime, especially if she's sleepy or her sisters are paying attention to her. My biggest issue with it is that Abby has started trying to sit up - with the way the straps are designed and the way she lays in the swing, she almost tips forward sometimes - I'm afraid she'll fall on her face, so I've mostly been using it when she's sleepy and I'd like her to pass out for a while. Otherwise I ahve to sit right next to her and make sure she doesn't tip forward. My eldest daughter also likes to push her in it, which I have to keep an eye at for... if she tips too far back, she'll fall forward just like if she were sitting up. I don't really reccommend it, but it's not awful.

The Fisher-Price Space Saver Swing and Seat is an eccellent item for me and my wife.  We just had our baby 2 weeks ago and this swing has been used as much as the crib.  We live in an apartment and been able to keep our baby  close to where we are has been possible to the swing, we can put it right outside the kitchen, next to my computer desk, or next to the couch while watching TV.  The swinging motion and the music keep the baby sleeping while we cook, watch TV, work on the computer, or simply need a break.  Putting it together took me about 10-12 minutes and it was very simple, it could have taken me less time but i was watching TV and it was almost midnight when I put it together.  The swing is very safe and sturdy.  My only complaint is that it needs 5 batteries, but if you can I would recommend buying rechargable batteries.  If you are like me I have having to buy batteries, that is why I love rechargable ones because I can always have batteries available.  Overall i recommend this product especially if you do not have  a lot of room around your house or apartment.

This swing has really bright colors and is great in that it does save space and it is small, especially when you travel alot like I do.  However, our child hated this swing and I think it may be because it is so low to the ground b/c we got her a higher one and she likes it.  Also, the toys at the top aren't very interesting for a baby.  it lacks power and although it would swing my newborn, I don't see how it would swing my child as she got older b/c it was on the highest notch with a three week old baby.
