We were looking for a toddler swing that gave a similar feel to the playground swings. Our 11 month and 2 1/2 year old have never liked the tilted back harness swings, but love swinging at the park. The swing seemed HUGE when we took it out of the box. It doesn't seem big not that it's up. Super sturdy. Our boys love it! Only drawback, there is no strap to keep the baby from climbing out. I wish it wasn't quite so expensive, because we'd sure like two. Seems a little over priced.
