 The Sweetpeace can mimic sounds heard in the womb. |
The Sweetpeace Newborn Soothing Center was designed based on significant research into the needs of newborns, as well as feedback from real-life mothers. This unique tool is designed to simulate the comfort of the womb with customizable touch, sound, sights, and movement. Four unique seat positions and four different cradling motions mimic how you cradle and hold your baby, and six speeds allow you to customize the Center's movement based on your baby's mood and needs. A two-speed vibration provides baby with a subtle, calming "massage,Eand a built-in swaddle blanket, head support, and snug five-point harness keep baby feeling extra secure.
Soothing, familiar sounds help to relax your baby as well: choose from low-frequency sounds that mimic sounds heard in the womb; natural sounds such as heartbeat, rain and wind; or lullabies played through the high-quality speakers; or provide your own play list with the included MP3 connection and holder.
Baby's eyes are kept from over stimulation with an adjustable canopy, which controls light and limits baby's line of vision--making it easier for a tired baby to feel calm. A close-by mirror gives baby something interesting to focus on quietly.
Versatile and Convenient
The Sweetpeace Newborn Soothing Center's removable carrier seat can be placed on the floor to double as a stationary rocker. You can also use the Center with any Graco Infant Car Seat--so you can easily transfer your sleeping baby from the car to the Soothing Center in your home without disturbing his nap. The Center requires no assembly; it can be powered by five D-cell batteries (not included) or with the included AC adaptor.

In 1942, Russell Gray and Robert Cone formed Graco Metal Products, in Philadelphia, PA. For 11 years, the firm fabricated machine and car parts for local manufacturers. In 1953, Gray left the firm, leaving Cone as sole owner. Cone decided to manufacture his own line of products, but had trouble coming up with ideas. Enter David Saint, an engineer, tinkerer, and stained glass artisan who worked for Graco. Saint, himself a father of nine, was intrigued when an associate told him how his wife would soothe their tired and cranky baby while swinging in a backyard glider swing. Acting on this inspiration, he went to the drawing board and 18 months of hard work later, the world's first wind-up infant swing, the Graco Swyngomatic, was born. Graco sold millions of Swyngomatics in the coming years, becoming one of the world's leading manufacturers of juvenile products in the process. Today, Graco is a Newell Rubbermaid company, with 1500 associates worldwide. While a half-century has brought many changes to Graco, their dedication and commitment to designing and manufacturing top-quality products remains, and continues on.

Glad we made the investment
We bought this swing the day before our baby was born and I'm so glad we did. I had read some of the reviews on it and most were positive - I was a little concerned about the "motor" noise some people mentioned. We put our baby in it the first time and she loved it - she would sleep wonderfully in it. Actually, when she was a brand new baby, its about the only place she would sleep. There was some "noise" from the motor, I guess you could say, but it was such a low hum that it didn't bother me or her. I think it might have even soothed her because it was sort of like a white noise. The speakers on this swing are incredible. I was surprised at the quality of sound that came out of this swing. One poster labeled it Bose worthy and I would have to agree. Sound is very high def and crystal clear. Even my iPod sounds great hooked up to the swing. We keep the swing in our living room so when I'm cleaning I hook the iPod up to it. We've never loaded any baby songs on our iPod for her, I guess that feature was more of a plus for us. But the music that comes standard on it is very soothing, and the nature sounds are beautiful. I love the rain the best. My daughter is now 6 months old and weighs a whopping 20 pounds! She still takes 2 naps a day in this swing and it swings her just fine. I'm glad it has such a strong motor. Not sure when she'll be too heavy for it. It's very sturdy, made well. I'll be sad the day she outgrows it but will definitely be keeping it for a second baby. I also love that it plugs into the wall - no batteries or things to wind up!
It IS pretty loud, even with a brand new motor!
I got mine on craigslist for half price. The motor was working intermittently and slipping so I called Graco and ordered a new motor (the entire tower) for 50 dollars. It is an older model, or so the customer service rep. told me, but even with a brand new motor mine still makes a pretty loud noise, so much that you have to turn up the TV to be able to hear it over the noise. It will still slow while swinging and almost stop, then starts again, so it seems to be a design flaw and not due to a run down motor. I also think the vibrating chair is even louder than the swinging motion.
My two week old can still fall asleep despite the noise, and it is one of the few places he will stay asleep for hours. The music entertains my 3 year old, and he likes to sing along. The sound quality is nice, and it does seem a bit loud to me while the baby is sleeping, but not loud enough to disturb him. He also likes to watch the toy hanging from the canopy.
I loved it, My son did not.
I bought this because of all of the features. My favorite was the MP3 hookup. There are so many ways that this can be used, but my son was more of a hands on baby. He was very colicky and this swing only made him cry more. Its a beautiful swing & so many positions, vibrations, and tons of other things...it just wasnt right for us.
One of the best items I received.
I love this swing. It is very easy to switch the swing seat out for the car seat. My son takes most of his naps in it and when we come home from car trips, I don't have to wake him up by moving him out of the car seat. The only thing I would change is to make it easier to take the material off to clean. You have to unscrew two areas to get the cover off. However,it washes nicely.
Love it!
The BEST Baby Swing! I am a mother of three, and this has by far been my favorite! My only negative is the fact that I have big babies and my son is only 6 mos old and still loves his swing, but he weighs in at 21 lbs and it won't move anymore even though the weight says up to 25 lbs. Something to think about I guess! However, I have not checked the weight limits on the other swings. I may contact Graco, perhaps my swing is defective in that area.
