Bright Starts 14 Days of Laughter Review & Giveaway

CLOSED!!!

We are super excited to be one of the 14 blogs chosen to do Bright Starts 14 Days of Laughter Campaign! As part of it we were given our choice of product to review from the new Ingenuity line! Be sure to check out Baby Momma Blog
she posted her review of the Ingenuity Play yard yesterday!


I decided to pick the InGenuity™ Portable Swing to review since we have a full sized swing at home & we spend a lot of time at my Moms house I knew that it would be a perfect fit for us.

As we all know Dot is my FIFTH baby so I have used just about every baby product there is. I have found there to be a huge problem with portable swings, they do not recline enough for a newborn! As we know newborns do not have very good control of their heads, so with the other portable swings I have used there was no way a new baby could be in it without sliding to the side or having their little head flop to either side. Dot is only 3 days old in the pictures were sharing. I am so happy with the InGenuity™ Portable Swing as you can see we do NOT have a problem with her poor head flopping to either side.

I also love that the buckles are covered! I always try to be careful to not pinch my babies but I'm ashamed to admit that I have a couple times got them caught in the buckles.

The InGenuity™ Portable Swing features the innovative TrueSpeed™ Technology, which provides sustained swinging speeds even as baby grows and gets heavier. The swing automatically recognizes baby’s weight and adjusts the swing speed to maintain a consistent swinging motion. With innovative solutions like TrueSpeed™ and on-trend fashion combined with the quick fold-and-go mechanism, this portable swing is the ideal travel companion.

Features and Benefits:
TrueSpeed™ Technology that maintains 6 swing speeds even as baby grows
Whisper Quiet™ operation for peaceful swinging
Comfort Recline™ seat with 2 positions to suit baby’s needs
Swing Timer has 3 settings: 15, 30, and 45 minutes
Removable head rest
Cushioned foot pad and side supports for ultimate comfort
Removable Toy Bar – pivots back for easy access to baby
6 Melodies to soothe baby with volume control and auto shut-off
Machine Washable seat pad and head rest
5 point Harness keeps baby secure

Room for improvement? The only thing that I could see that would be better is if it folded up a bit smaller. The picture makes it look a bit smaller than what it really is & if it had an easy to carry handle that would be awesome since we take it to my moms & back home with us. Other than that I can't find anything else I would improve on so I totally recommend the InGenuity™ Portable Swing to anyone with a baby.
