Amazon.com Product Description

Designed for use from birth until baby becomes active and can climb out of the seat, the Fisher-Price Rainforest Open-Top Cradle Swing lets baby take a relaxing swing while watching plush rainforest friends frolic in the mobile above.

  • Six soothing swing speeds; relaxing music and sound effects

Calms and Soothes Baby
This open-top swing features a comfortable cradle seat with leafy rainforest canopy, calming music and sound effects, and a gentle swinging motion that helps baby relax. Baby can swing side-to-side or front-to-back--either way, she'll be able to see colorful toys appearing to play peek-a-boo among the leaves. While baby reclines, one of 12 different songs and nature sounds create a peaceful environment, and six soothing swing speeds suit baby's mood. At the same time, watching leaves open and close and rainforest animals move in and out of baby's sight fosters visual tracking skills.

Safe, Sturdy Design
Sturdy and safe, the Rainforest Cradle Swing has a two-position reclining seat to ensure baby's comfort, and a three-point restraint to keep him secure while moving. A plug-in option helps save you money on batteries, and the swing folds for easy portability and storage. For added convenience, the mobile swings away so you have quick access to baby.

The Rainforest Cradle Swing measures 36 x 43 x 28 inches (WxHxD) and requires some assembly.



  • Open-top cradle swing with rainforest theme
  • Moves from side to side or front to back
  • Six soothing speeds; Easily folds up for convenient storage
  • Requires four LR20 alkaline D batteries
  • Folds easily for storage

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this swing!, April 28, 2008

We purchased this swing when my son was about one month old. He loves it! He really likes the bright colors of the mobile animals and used to stare at them in amazement. As he has gotten older (he's now over 4 months), he gets bored a little more easily, so he doesn't like to stay in it for as long as he used to. I usually use the swing when I need to get things done around the house and can't take him along - like cook meals. I'm sad that he's quickly approaching the weight limit of 20 pounds (he's a big kid), so we won't be able to use it for a longer period of time.

We bought this particular swing because of the bright colors, its ability to be plugged in, and because it can swing both side to side and front to back. We also liked the music choices. Most of the songs are easy to listen to and won't drive you crazy. There is even one choice of just animal sounds (birds chirping, etc). It's nice for when you really don't want music playing in the background of your phone... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Buy, August 10, 2007
This review is from: Fisher-Price Rainforest Open-Top Cradle Swing (Baby Product)
We purchased this swing for our newborn son based on the fact that my wife uses one at the daycare she works at. Perhaps the biggest selling point for us was the fact that you have the option of using a plug-in adapter or batteries. Since just about every other item used for a baby takes batteries, it was nice to finally see a product with an A/C adapter. Other features that we like are the side-to-side or front-to-back swinging option, the wonderful mobile which features up-and-down movement, and the music/rainfall noises. All of these options work independently of one another, which makes this product even more appealing. We haven't had any problem with the swinging (or lack thereof) that others seem to be having. Sure, the swing doesn't move very fast, but I don't think my son is quite ready for roller coaster speeds just yet. My son seems very content while he naps in the swing as well.

Overall, I think that this swing is an excellent purchase for anyone in the... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Motor Lacking Enough Swing Power, December 21, 2006
By 
WiSH (Virginia Beach, VA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fisher-Price Rainforest Open-Top Cradle Swing (Baby Product)
I purchased this swing for my 4 month old daughter. I was enticed by the fact it was the only one I could locate that could be plugged into an outlet and work off household electricity rather than battery power. I imagined this would make the "swing" consistantly a better "swing" as there would never be a weak power source. The first swing I brought home from the store was assembled (which only took about 15 minutes) and plugged in. I was immediately disappointed by the lack of swing, and eventually my wife and I determined that there was definitely something wrong with the swing, because even with no baby the swing would stop swinging then slowly...and barely swing again. I returned it...and purchased another. I agree with the other reviewer that it just appears to take awhile for it to "warm" up. As I sit and watch her in the swing at this moment, it seems to be working okay, but I'm not totally convinced. The mobile rotates and the leaves move up and down. If the motor... Read more
