Key Features of The Bright Starts Comfort & Harmony Portable Swing

I always like to start my reviews of the portable swing I am reviewing so I always try to find a video for you guys. I find it helpful to see a video as it gives you a good idea of what the swing looks like in action and in this particular video, some of the important features are pointed out.

• Extremely Portable: The Bright Starts Comfort & Harmony Portable Swing is a truly portable swing. This is attributed to its light weight and ability to fold up very small. It weighs less than 10 pounds which make it substantially lighter than most a lot of other swings on the market. It folds up very easily and once folded, takes up very little room. Not only does this make this swing highly portable but it is great for storing when not in use.
• Comfortable: This swing is very comfortable. Its fabric is very plush and soft. The seat is deliberately oversized. The foot pillow and head support are also very soft. This swing incorporates Bright Starts’ Truspeed Technology(TM) which detects the weight of your baby and adjust the motion of the swing accordingly to provide consistent speed. This swing has 3 recline positions for added comfort.
• Timers: This nifty little feature allows you to set timers so that your swing continues to move for a set amount of time before stopping. This handy timer can be set to 15 minutes, 30 minutes or 45 minutes before the swing stops moving.
• Multiple Swing Speeds: The Bright Starts Comfort & Harmony Portable Swing has 6 different settings for the speed of the swing motion. Options are always a welcome feature in any swing.

More Features of the Bright Starts Comfort & Harmony Portable Swing

As regular readers will know by now, I like to split the list of features up at this point. I do this so that you do not get worn out from reading a long list of features. I find that this little paragraph of text does wonders to help my readers from phasing out so I hope it helped you! Here are the remaining features of this already impressive list.

• Ease of Use: Bright Starts have gone out of their way to make this an easy swing to use. You can lift the canopy toy bar out of the way with just one hand for quick access to your child. The toy bar is also easily removed. The 5 point harness is also easy to button and unbutton. This swing is very easy to assemble.
• Easy To Clean: The cushions and pillows of this swing are easily removed and machine washable. This makes the fabric very easy to clean. The rest of the swing is also very easy to clean.

A Bright Starts Comfort & Harmony Portable Swing Review

To start my review of the Bright Starts Comfort & Harmony Portable Swing I’ll immediately note that this is a very popular baby swing. It is both highly purchased and highly rated with an of customer reviews giving it either 4 or 5 stars. The reason for this swing’s popularity is quickly understood when you look at some of the great features that this swing comes with.

The first thing that I noticed about this swing was the weight. At less than 10 pounds, this swing is considerably lighter than most other swings on the market. This is, of course, makes it very portable. Combined with the ability to fold up very small, quite easily and you’ll understand just how portable this thing is.

This makes this swing perfect for bringing with you when you go anyway such as a trip to a relative’s house. Because of the ability of this swing to fold up so small and its light weight making it easy to carry, it is quite easy to put away for storage then take out again and unfold when needed. This will be an important feature for the space-conscious parents out there. Baby swings take up a lot of room and although this takes up a little less room than some of the bigger models, it will prove very handy for some that it can be folded up for storage.

One negative issue that I found some customers complaining of after researching this swing was that the swinging motion of this swing will automatically shut off after one hour. This is most likely a safety feature in case parents accidentally leaving their child swinging for the whole night. This brings up the argument of whether or not babies should be left in their swings for the night. The American Academy of Paediatrics recommends that parents shouldn’t do this. However, many parents feel that their swing is a safe place for their child to spend the night and it is, of course, every parent’s right to decide what is best for their children. Another negative comment that I seen made by a customer was that the swing motion did not move quickly enough compared to some of the larger and heavier swings. It should be noted that many customers comment on faster swings and wish they are slower. The faster a swing moves the more stimulating it is for the baby.

In conclusion, this is a baby swing that has a lot of great features. It gives you a lot of options to decide how you wish this portable swing will operate. Its light weight and ability to fold up easily make it highly portable. It is comfortable, well made, and sells for a competitive price.
