Product Description
Imagine being able to turn your car seat into an instant swing! This unique idea of taking a compact swing frame and attaching your Graco SnugRide Infant Car Seat or Infant SafeSeat Car Seat was inspired by veteran moms. We kept hearing stories of babies who sleep contently when riding in the car, but wake crying once they're home and Mom takes them out of their car seat.
The SnugGlider Infant Car Seat Swing Frame continues the car ride so Baby can get a longer nap - without Mom having to drive around the neighborhood all day! The SnugGlider Infant Car Seat Frame Swing has variable swing speeds, two speed vibration, music and nature sounds so you can choose the right soothing "recipe" for your baby's needs. The lightweight, compact frame folds, so you can bring it on vacation, picnics, to Grandma's or anywhere you need instant soothing.

Attach your Graco SnugRide Infant Car Seat or Infant SafeSeat Car Seat to create an instant, anywhere swing

Comment: I have 3 month old twin girls and they simply love this swing!!!! I love it because it's so convenient and doesn't take up so much space in our home. I like to put the swing on the highest setting when they're being fussy and it instantly puts them to sleep. This is a good investment I purchased two for less than the price of a standard swing. I always get a lot of compliments on them when we have visitors over , everyone says how different and convenient it is and how they wish something like this was around years ago. This is most definitely a good buy!!!

Summary: Lowers oxygen levels 2010-06-29
Comment: Do you all realize that multiple studies have demonstrated that the longer a baby remains in a car seat the lower his oxygen levels drop? If the infant's oxygen levels reach dangerous lows then the resulting hypoxia places the infant at risk of developmental delays, lowered IQ, etc. or even positional asphyxia (suffocation due to an overly curled position).

This is why the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that car seats be used only for in-vehicle transportation purposes.
I'm amazed Graco has this product on the market.

Summary: Depends on the baby 2010-06-03
Comment: We got this before my son was born. He hated his car seat so this didn't get much use. We tried to sell it at a yard sale with no luck, so down to the basement it went.
Then our daughter was born. She loves her car seat, and loves this product as well.
I would have given it 5 stars, but the clicking noise is loud (again daughter loves it as it's a white noise to her). Also, the speed setting is very hard to get "just right".

Summary: Works well 2010-04-25
Comment: Since we already had a snug-rider, this seemed to be the perfect fit--both for the seat and for our budget. We've only had it for about a month now, but everything seems to work smoothly. The seat clips in perfectly, it's lightweight and easy to move, though a bit awkward if you're packing it up to move somewhere. Our baby loves the rocking motion, the vibrations, and especially the soothing water sounds. He likes the music too, but the water is a bit more subtle and less distracting if you're listening to other music or watching TV.
I am not giving this the full 5 stars because of the awkwardness of packing this item up in the car (the frame where the seat sits is a bit bulky and doesn't lock for easy transport) and because of the battery life. We go through new batteries once per week for the rocking engine, sometimes twice. Also seems odd that the batteries do not power both the music and the rocker, which makes it a bit more of a pain to replace.
Overall, I do believe this is a good, solid product at a reasonable price.
