One major plus with the Snugapuppy Cradle ‘n Swing is that it comes with an AC adapter, so it can be plugged in or it can run on battery

There are also 16 types of music and nature sounds you can play to help calm your child. You won't have to listen to the same thing over and over again since there is a wide variety of sounds to choose from.

The Snugapuppy rocks side-to-side or back-to-front, depending on your baby’s preferences, and its SmartSwing Technology senses baby’s weight and starts rocking without a single push.

The swing’s music, sounds, and mobile all shut off automatically after 20 minutes, which might be appealing for people who tend to use the battery option.

Baby safety comes first, and the Fisher-Price Sweet Snugapuppy Dreams Cradle ‘n Swing observes this by having a 5-point safety harness to keep the baby secure and safe as they swing or reach the toys. It’s also strong and all the materials used and included toys are safe for your baby.

The legs fold up for portability and storage, and it now includes a plug-in adapter to save yourself a lot of D batteries (it can also run on 4 D batteries if you choose, but we prefer it as a swing AC-powered).

You can also count on 2 comfy recline positions, as well as 6 swing speeds and 16 soothing songs & nature sounds. Ah, and it’s also machine washable.

What experts didn't like

One major downfall of the Snugapuppy Swing is that it makes loud, grinding noises when in operation. Some babies may benefit from this sound as some find the constant noise soothing, just as some babies benefit from loud white noise machines. But if your baby or other people in your house are easily disturbed by sound and prefer peace and quiet, you may find the loudness problematic.

This swing has a large base; if you have a smaller space, it may be too large to comfortably fit

Its major drawback is its size: It’s hefty, with a wide base, and takes up quite a bit of room so make sure you measure before adding this to your registry.

The legs can be partially collapsed for transport or storage, but because the seat is a hard plastic shell, unlike the all-fabric seats of our other picks, this model is still too bulky and inconvenient to move around frequently

The buttons on the fisher price cradle ‘n swing might get faulty and not make proper contact with the circuit button switches. May need to realign buttons

It lacks of vibration, but the noise can be much lower.

- Baby Love Swings

| Full review

It’s not fully collapsible. The legs are partially collapsible, but the seat is made of hard plastic as opposed to all fabric options, thus more bulky

- Little One Mag

The motor did make a subtle clicking noise sometimes, and when not plugged in it burns through batteries pretty quickly
