Sanity Saver!
We have the Starlight Cradle Swing and our 2 week old has loved it since we brought it home. She really enjoys the lights and the mobile. I really like that it runs on batteries or electricity, and that I can control the volume for the music. Sometimes the swing doesn't quite start up properly when we want it to swing (only reason I didn't give it five stars) but we haven't had any other problems with it.

Mommy's little helper
This is the only piece of baby gear that will allow me to get things done because my child will actually nap for good stretches of time (1-3hrs). I love it! In her crib, I get an hour at most. As a busy homemaker, you can't get much done in that time before the little one is crying for attention or a play buddy.

As other reviewers commented, the music does shut off after a short period of time, but I don't find it annoying to turn it back on. Plus, she has usually fallen asleep by that time so music is no longer needed. One alternative is to pop in a Baby Einstein DVD while your baby is swinging. No need for music there!

My only complaint is that the seat sits a little off to one direction. I'm not sure it that is just the way my husband installed it or if others have had this problem. It really isn't that big a deal though. It is only slightly off center, not enough for it to cause balance issues or for me to worry about safety.

Other than that, this is a wonderful product. Amazon had it at the best price. I looked elsewhere and no one could beat it.

LOVE this swing!
I ordered the Starlight Papasan Cradle swing about a month ago for my daughter. I chose this one because of the PLUG IN feature--you do not have to use batteries!! My daughter loves the swing and I have been using it since she was about a month old. The fact that you can choose to have music, lights, mobile all going at once, or any combination of the three makes it really nice. And what's even nicer than that is there is a volume control! There was a review that I read about the swing where someone said that the music and mobile, etc... shut off after about 7 minutes. Well, in my experience with this particular swing I found a "solution" to that. If you keep the music going (or the nature sounds or whatever sound option you choose) then the music and mobile don't shut off at all. You can turn the volume down if you don't want to hear it too loud, but in order for it not to shut off every 7 minutes you do need to keep the sound on. The swing is beautiful and I believe this one to be gender neutral. The colors are a soft buttercream yellow and a light periwinkle. I love this swing and I would definitely recommend it!

Great swing and great price!
This swing is amazing. We have tried swings that rock front to back and our son hated them. This swing is so soothing and was easy to assemble. It comes with all the bells and whistles at such a great price. We have three kids and this swing is one of the best purchases we have ever made for any of our kids.

Great purchase!
Definitely worth the money, my daughter loves this. Also, FYI, Amazon had a lower price on these swings vs. Target, Babies R Us or Wal-Mart. I have recommended this swing to several others and also to order from Amazon, it was a piece of cake and can't beat free shipping!
