We bought this for our 1 month old son, because each time we'd place him in his bassinet, he'd wake up. We tried everything to get him to stay asleep, and then someone recommended this, so we thought we'd give it a try, since we were desperate to sleep. PROS The gliding motion is smooth, not jarring or jerky at all, like some reviewers have claimed. We replace the batteries (it takes 3-4...can't quite remember how many, D batteries) once a month. This thing is on from about 9 pm-9 am. The bassinet turns in 360', so you can turn the bassinet in any direction. The color scheme is pretty neutral, so it fits most nursery/bedroom decor. It's rather quiet but recently, we started hearing a low squeaking noise. It's not loud enough to bother our baby or us, since we have on a lot of white noise,but even if we just had a fan going, it's not too bad. The liner is soft and cozy. We thought it might be too warm--our son was born in the summer, but it was just fine. Now that it's winter, we don't worry about the fleece-y lining. Small footprint (small, doesn't take up too much space) Heavy base, secure And lastly, OUR BABY SLEEPS SOUNDLY IN IT!!! CONS We don't like that it sits low to the ground. We wished it were taller, like a traditional bassinet, but we placed this bassinet next to our bed, and all I have to do is lean down from my side of the bed, if I want to check on him (which I do often). The activity bar is useless. It's kind of cute but we never used it. The songs are ok, but we never play them Wished it were expandable to hold baby as he grows. We are panicking because we don't know what we'll do once our son outgrows the bassinet (hold ups to 25 pounds). FINAL RECOMMENDATION Definitely buy if your newborn won't stay asleep, or if s/he has trouble staying asleep.

This little glider has been amazing. When we had to come home from the hospital with a newborn and a bili blanket, this seat was great. It is low enough to the ground so the cords that had to be attached to our baby at all times were not being constantly pulled out (in the case of him being in say, a swing, or something else). And now that he's off the bili blanket, it's the only place our baby will nap or sleep in at night. He doesn't like the swing, or anything stationary. He loves the sensation of being glided, and the handles that are on it make it easy to move from room to room. Would definitely buy another one or recommend it to anyone! i wish it wasn't so expensive, otherwise I would buy one for everyone I know who is having babies!

I bought this and couldn't wait to receive it and set it up. I knew my baby would just love it. Except she didn't. She liked the lion and elephant toys on the toy bar, but only for about five minutes. I don't know if the glider just moved too slow, was too loud or what, but she screamed every time I put her in it. The music didn't help and seemed to actually make her more upset. I was so disappointed! The glider itself is a good product, seems to be made well. The only thing I can say is the motor is loud and isn't very fluid. I wish my daugther had loved it more! What an expensive mistake to make for us.

Unfortunately, the motor stopped working within a few minutes of use. Based on several reviews, this appears to be a common problem with this product. However, Amazon shipped a new one within two days. Without a printer, I requested for them to send me a shipping label. Unfortunately, it never came in the mail in the allotted time to expect it. When I wrote them back about this, they apologized for the inconvenience, told me that the shipping label wouldn't get to me before the due date that I had been meant to return the item and said to simply keep both gliders for the price of one. I can't say enough how professional and accommodating Amazon is with its customers! Any problem I've ever had, they've fixed it promptly and at MY convenience, rather than the other way around. As far as the glider itself goes, here's my review: The glider was well received by my newborn. The bed of the glider is deep and there's plenty of room for further growth. The cloth material is very soft and comfortable and the headrest doesn't do that awkward thing that puts the baby's neck at an weird angle. And, even if the product seems to be cheaply made, the soft material and dust ruffle thing balances that out. It looks as elegant as the picture shows. Waiting for the replacement glider, my newborn seemed fine enough with just laying in it without the gliding function. In fact, once I received the new glider, the movement of it only seemed to bother him. As other reviews suggest, there are some jerky movements to the gliding motion and the Slow and Fast speeds have little to no difference to me. If anything, Fast speed seems to make it more jerky. The music is nothing spectacular. It's the same in every baby product you end up with. The volume level on it seems typical, as well. Not overly loud or soft. I rarely use it, though. All in all, the glider isn't a bad buy. For $80, I have a bassinet type thing that my newborn likes and the batteries don't go very quickly considering most of its electrical functioning aren't all that important to him. All baby products are a risk factor of a baby's unique opinion anyway. With both the product being a success as far as getting my newborn out of my arms for a few minutes to an hour and the pleasant experience I had with Amazon when things didn't turn out the way I wanted them to, I could say that this product is still worth recommending.

I bought this after reading several reviews noting how good this product is for babies with reflux. I used it for a while, but honestly my baby did not seem too comfortable in it. For one, she did not like the motion, so I just used it as a stationary sleeping place for her. Everytime she moved, I'd hear the plastic parts of the glider making noise. Even worse, she would try to wiggle herself out of it, so the rocking noise would go on for most of the night! The seat is really just a fabric sling, without much padding to it, so it wasn't very cozy. It has become an expensive cat bed, unfortunately. I'd recommend the Leachco Podster instead if you have a reflux baby. It provides a softer sleeping spot and enough elevation to help with the reflux.

This is the best invention ever! My baby is almost three months now and I don't know what we would do without it. She sleeps in it every night and the motion helps her fall back asleep when she wakes up in the night. Also, I bought a separate vibration pad and put it below the seat that helps her relax even more into a deep sleep. She has colic too so the upright position helps with that too. It is so easy to transport around the house and it is great that I don't have to worry about plugging it in. She was sleeping through the night at six to seven weeks with this product.

Great product up until the point that the glider feature stopped functioning just 45 days post purchase. I'd skip this one if I were you.
