Oh Baby! Extravaganza- InGenuity Bella Vista Fashion Portable Swing Review and Giveaway!

My babies have always loved their swings.  I remember about 11 years ago when I was a first time mom thinking to myself, "Someone needs to invent a little swing that you can take with you places."  Well, what do you know...not too long down the road portable swings hit the market!  There must have been another mom out there thinking the same thing.  So here I am about to have my 5th baby and just now trying this genius invention!

I was sent the Bella Vista Fashion portable infant swing by InGenuity.  I was surprised at how easy this little swing was to put together. My 11 year old son and I had it put together in a matter of minutes. Instructions were clear and the only tool we needed was a screw driver. 

Although this swing is small and portable, it is not lacking in features!  Soft plush comfortable seating for baby, 5 point harness for safety, 2 reclining positions, and one of the greatest features...the innovative TrueSpeed™ Technology!  This feature provides sustained swinging speeds even as baby grows and gets heavier.  The swing automatically recognizes baby’s weight and adjusts the swing speed to maintain a consistent swinging motion.  Very smart especially since this swing can be used for babies up to 25 pounds!

Another couple awesome features is the music selection and swing timer.  This swing plays 6 soothing melodies.  You can play them softly to soothe baby to sleep or a bit louder when the baby is in a playful mood as there is a volume control setting. The timer also has 3 settings, 15, 30, and 45 minutes.  This is great because when the swing stops you know it's time to take baby out.  Afterall, you don't want your baby in the swing too long!  No swing makes up for the loving arms of baby's mother.  

The toy bar contains 2 adorable plush snails and is fully removable if need be.

I know I am going to love this portable swing for my new baby!  It will be so handy to take on trips, visiting friends, or to the grandparents.  Look how small it folds up!  It folds so nice and easy too, press a couple buttons and you have a compact swing ready to pack in the car!

I am very pleased with this swing and can tell a lot of thought went into it's design.  It is well made and I know it will last our family through many more babies.  Between homeschool and housework this will be a blessing to use as I can keep baby near by at all times.  For under $60, I say this is a great little investment for every mama!
