Does the "Smart Swing Technology" really work? Want a swing that actually swings when baby gets 15lbs+

My LO is right at 13 lbs. it still swings but my option is it lacks in power, takes a height setting to swing, plus have noticed it's getting noiser as time has gone by.

I can tell you that I haven't had any issues with my swing at all and my baby is 12 pounds now, and then add blankets, etc. Ours had worked just fine every time so far without fail.

No you need batteries. You might want rechargeable batteries. Also remember pediatricians do not recommend baby be in a swing longer than an hour. I use the reclining position on the swing and remove baby if he falls asleep.

20 pounds. The manual states, "Use the product only if the child meets ALL of the following conditions: - Cannot sit up by himself (approx. 6 months) - Is not an active child who may be able to climb out of the seat - Weighs more than 6 lbs and less than 20 lbs."My baby is about 19 pounds and 7-1/2 months. In the past few weeks, as she's mastered sitting unsupported, she's lost interest in the swing. We got a lot of good use out of it before now though!

My daughter is only 16lbs and 4 months old the swing stops swing on her I put her in it and all you hear is the cracking of the swing it's pretty but not a good buy, if you want something that last a baby past 15lbs.

All three of my kids (120lbs, 90lbs, 50lbs) have been on the swing. The swing supports them very well, it's finding rope/wire/chain that doesn't break after a couple of weeks of crazy swinging. Of course a branch or structure that is strong enough is important too. It's a great swing, they love it!

Hello Krissy! Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us about the My Little Snugapuppy Cradle 'n Swing by Fisher-Price. I understand you would like to know if the swing comes with a timer feature. I would be happy to give you some more information! This Cradle 'n Swing has Fisher-Price' Smart Swing Technology which times the swing out after 4 hours. There is no feature that allows you to set the swing to run for a certain period of time, however the mobile, music or sounds will turn off on its own after approximately 20 minutes. The swinging will have to be turned off manually. I hope this information helps to answer your questions, Krissy! If you have any other questions, comments, concerns or suggestions, please don't hesitate to contact our customer care department again by responding to this email. We're open 24/7, so if you ever need us, we're always here to help! Best! Roberta Customer Care Agent

I would give it a try. My son is a little over 8 months. People tend to think he is younger because he is on the smaller side. He is a very active sleeper so it doesnt work well at night anymore, he usually ends up beside it etc.. But, we still use it for diaper changes, hc, swing etc so he's not flat on his head.the part where his head would rest is about 7 inches across in the middle if that helps. If it doesn't work u could save for another baby or loan/give away but I would try it. We will use it as long as possible, I'm sure he appriciates the extra cushion:)

I wouldn't use it as a substitute for a swing. My advice is that a battery operated swing is a worthwhile investment. Fisher Price papasan cradle swing is a great one!

I haven't tried that but it seems to key in on the baby's movement more, however any movement will make it think all is ok. Try to only use it in a static environment where the baby is the only thing that can move.

RangerLo, I am not sure. I will have to ask my kids or go out and look at the swing. I'll keep ya posted!

Half of the time, I couldn't get it to work period. The engineer at SwingSmart said that it may be due to me not coming to a complete stop before I started my swing, something to do with the system detecting the start of the swing. It is supposed to work whether you hit the ball or not, but that was not my experience.

Every baby is different. Newborns will be fine in it, but mine did not like being in a swing in general. It has been worth the investment for me personally because after about 3 months, our baby started to like it and we used it a lot. Compared to other swings, it is very affordable and I loved that I could pack it up and take it places.

Our child has been playing with this house since she was 1 yr old. I think there is a version with a swing. I would ask the manufacture this question. You should be able to look at the specs online and find the measurements... Then convert them to cm. There are apps online that will do that for you.

Diana, the swing is designed to accommodate babies from 5.5 to 30 lbs., so I would imagine that a baby, who begins sitting at, say, 6 months, would be able to still enjoy the swing, although I don't know for how many more months. Again, it will depend on his weight first, and then, upon how contented he is when in it. I would certainly make sure that the five-point harness is engaged! My daughter and son-in-law are really ejoying this gliding swing. Sometimes little David sleeps better in it than in the bassinet, but he is just six weeks old. Hope that helps a bit.

We brought our baby papasan swing down from the attic just before our second child was due, and our then 2 year old, (of course) wanted to get in the swing. After double checking the weight limit (ours says 24 lbs). We let her swing in it again as she was only 22 lbs. Shortly after, the motor broke..... could be a coincidence, but I doubt it. It worked fine before she got in it.

I don't think it'd work. I just called in our swing. I don't know it would work. All I can say is call again and try again, if it doesn't work, ask them to help you! That's what they're their for! They are customer service!!!
