Pros	Cons
Swing seat in the baby bouncer swing is made of delicate soft material for better comfort.	Infants run the risk of slumping and damaging their spines if not positioned correctly inside the swing.
Option to run on battery, where power is not available, is a handy facility.	Regular monitoring is required to ensure that babies have enough breathing space.
The seat is quite spacious to provide the baby enough room to move the limbs when inside the swing.	The swing starts making noise when infants above 9 kg occupy it.
The swing can be easily carried around and stored, owing to its foldable feature.	Batteries installed in the stipulated slot can jangle as they can touch the plastic for want of any pads.
Economical buy as two products in one – it's a Swing and a Bouncer.
