  • I want to let you know my honest opinion of the 4moms Mamaroo swing since it is a very pricey product! This is the kind of review I was looking for before we we purchased this swing. Here I answer the burning question, is this swing worth its hefty price tag?
    products i mention:
    *4moms swing amzn.to/338l3Zv
    *newborn insert amzn.to/2DgsEu5
    music:

    about me:
    My name is Alyssa, I am a Toronto Mom with a newborn and an eight year old and I’m managing day by day. I created this channel to share tidbits that I would have liked to know if I did this crazy thing called motherhood all over again. Thanks for watching!

    Thank you for making this video! I was 100% on getting this swing because it seems so modern for a baby swing. But after hearing what happened with the swing stopped working and even with a warranty no one was able to reach out to for customer service made me realize that this swing is not worth the money. Thanks again for your review!!!

    Thank you. I was considering this for my daughters baby, but since you and others I’ve written had problems getting in contact with customers service because some functions stopped working, I’ll be looking for a Fisher-Price product or something similar. Also it’s not ready to go for newborns ugh…

  • @scottdang4704
    @scottdang4704 2 года назад +11

    Worth it, no. Let's face it. It is a luxury item that does what no other swing does (though technically it isn't swing at all. Is the cost justified? Yes. It is very high quality in construction and function. It's truly top of the line. The motor is whisper quiet which is an amazing feat considering how much torque is required to move a relatively heavy infant and change direction quickly.

    Thanks for this! Both my older sons had a fisher price swing and they LOVED it. I guess we’re a swing family too lol. We’re tight on space with this baby, so I was contemplating buying this one cuz it’s compact. My SIL warned me my nephew didn’t like his mamaroo swing and after this review, I think I’ll save my money.

    I think you should also take into consideration what the baby likes. I bought this to my niece, cause we have been doing squats non-stop to make her sleep (up and down motion). She hates swings (left right). That should be what you look at when putting money on this. If your baby doesn't like up down, better stick to left right machines lol that's my 2 cent on this.

    The 4moms site has $100 off thru 4/8/22, if someone sees my comment in time and really wants to get one. Thx for review. I was considering getting one only because $100 off (no grandchild yet lol). But not thinking I will even get on as the whole point is to soothe baby and it doesn’t seem successful the majority of the time. I do love the look. But fisher price it will be in future. Great review. Very helpful

  • @thedaniluvshow
    @thedaniluvshow 3 года назад +9

    Totally agree! NOT WORTH IT. We received this as a gift and as I un boxed it, the packaging says PRODUCT IS NOT RETURNABLE ONCE FABRIC IS OPENED. (Red flag there) So I set it up without the fabric to see how it works. I didn't like that my Samsung tablet would not connect or recongnize the AUX cable, However my Samsung Galaxy 9s did.
    Long story short...
    1. Customer service number doesn't work
    2. Infant insert sold separately
    3. Bluetooth does not connect to your Pandora, SiriusXM or Spotify. Only useful for controlling the on-board settings from your phone.
    4. The mobile isn't really a mobile
    5. AUX cable doesn't connect to every device

    @tomandkatherinewilliams7784 Год назад

    Interesting that the price for this swing is what vintage battery operated swings like the one I used in the 90's. And I know why these vintage swings are in such demand. The arms which connect the swing to the top support is much longer. This gives a long sweeping motion rather than the tipping motion of virtually all the new swings. If you can spend that much on a swing - get the vintage one if you can find one! My babies lived it. I wish I had saved it.

    I was kind of excited about the Bluetooth until I found out it needs an aux to play music. The speaker are horrid and the sounds they give you are no better than distorted sound. So the sound portion is useless to me. But the rocking and movements it has is really nice. Is it worth it? Probably not. I got it for my baby shower so it’s the only reason I have it.
