Our most used piece of baby equipment!

The motion glider I have is a hand me down from my sister who swore it was her saving grace for her second daughter who had reflux. Because the chair is bent upright, it is a great place for newborns who have reflux to sleep. We've been using it since day one for our four month old son and he loves it. In the beginning we did use it primarily for him to sleep since he did have a little reflux and slept better being slightly upright. Now he likes to sit in it and play with the toys on the toy bar. We've added a few more toys for him to bat around. It is great to have around the house because it is an easy and safe place to put baby down for a few minutes and usually it will keep him distracted. If my sister hadn't given the motion glider to us, I would have bought one in a heartbeat.

Too slow to sooth baby

This product is not versatile nor effective enough for me to recommend it. We got it as a gift and I tried using it every day for about two weeks and my baby would just look at me thinking "are you crazy mom!? there is NO way I will sit still in this!" She would just squirm around trying to get out. It is much too slow to do anything for a baby and is bulky and ugly and heavy as well! I got a lot more use out of the Baby Bjorn Sitter which is a little more money but my baby likes it, sits in it for at least 10 minutes (that is a lot for her!) and it folds flat and does not require batteries.

Best thing ever for newborn!!!!

I have a colic infant with reflux. This has been my saving grace. He hates the basic swing, papasan swing, and bouncer. He LOVES the gliding motion, and only lets me put him down in this machine. I highly recommend getting the boppy noggin head rest to lay in the inside of the glider. It really keeps them in place, and helps to keep their head from getting flat. You won't be diappointed.
