About this deal

Note that you can actually rotate the seat to any 90-degree increment, which is nice to help orient your baby toward wherever the action is (or away from it! The DuetSoothe is one of several Graco baby swings, including the Soothe 'n Sway, Duet Glide, Simple Sway, EveryWay Soother, Sense2Soothe, Slim Spaces, Glider Lite, DuetConnect, DuoGlider, and Soothing System Glider. Movement speed is controlled by a simple knob up front, and there really are no other bells and whistles. We confidently show up for the first day of pre-school, for birthday parties, park picnics, and every moment in between.

Like many of you, we had a thought-provoking year, watching the world change before us during the pandemic. To help you find the perfect baby swing for your family, throughout the year we continually put new baby swings through our hands-on testing to find the best and safest options of the year. Given how much time your little one will spend in a baby swing, it's important to ensure that it meets stringent standards for safety, comfort, and functionality. In our testing, we thought the gliding motion was smooth and a lot like the familiar feeling of a great nursery glider. Its luxurious finishing and high-quality fabrics give it a stylish design that perfectly matches any interior.The Cassia baby swing has 360⁰ rotation, comes with an attached baby mobile with two toys on it, two recline positions and a cosy newborn inlay. We loved the motion detection mode, which detects your baby's movement and reactivates the swinging - and it actually worked pretty well (except for when our dog bumped up against it! There are also three different speeds to choose from, making for 24 different combinations of motion and speed. Cocooned in the soft, padded inlay, your baby will be comforted by the 12 melodies and nature sounds that Cassia plays. The included remote control operates very similarly and has a decent range (generally speaking if you can see the swing, you'll be able to control it).

Ingenuity says the Cozy Kingdom swing can be used with babies up to 19 pounds, but the swing strained quite a bit with a 14-pound baby, so that seemed like a more reasonable limit. Overall, we've been using this swing for over 8 months now without issue, and we think it's an awesome new addition to our list! Finally, the Cassia baby swing comes with two toys to give your baby something to look at, two recline positions and a soft and cozy newborn inlay to provide you and your baby with the utmost comfort. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and recent scientific data suggest that: 1) infants under 4 months of age should only use the most reclined swing position, 2) parents should check swing safety to prevent tipping and folding, 3) shoulder straps should be used if the incline comes up more than 50 degrees, 4) toys on mobiles should be out of reach, 5) always check weight limits before placing a baby in a swing, 6) the seat should stay relatively flat during swinging to prevent tipping, and 7) if your baby falls asleep in the swing, you should move him or her to a firm sleeping surface (bassinet, crib). The 2 in 1 swing and seat with 360 rotation does everything you want and more whilst being super light weight.The speed settings provide ample adjustment range for different babies, and the music options (rain, white noise, ocean, heartbeat) were great; you can also plug in an MP3 player to play the music of your choice!

The smartphone control of the swing was a luxury, but also very convenient if you're cooking or cleaning, post-c-section, or (god forbid) trying to take a nap! Easy to clean, Cassia’s high quality, premium fabrics are effortless to remove and are machine washable, so the seat looks as good as new, every time. We got our hands on the Cassia for testing late last year and walked away with a very positive impression. We played around quite a bit with the 5 different motions (car ride, kangaroo, tree swing, rock a bye, and ocean wave) and were really impressed with the fluidity of movement, the modern design, and how quiet the system was overall. A few cons: although it’s mains operated (which saves on batteries) the lead is quite short, which limits where we can place it.The DuetSoothe comes in at the relatively basic end, with two simple swing motions (front-to-back or side-to-side), a normal footprint, and no especially fancy features.
