Graco Review & Giveaway

I received a sample from Graco for the sole purpose of this review

Graco is obviously a leader when it comes to innovative baby products and gear. They are one of the most popular brands in families homes with children and they are the most recognized here in the United States. 

When I first saw the Little Lounger, I knew I wanted to try it for the new baby due in January. 

It's a great little lounging seat that is a rocker OR a vibrating lounger seat.

We got the Ardmore pattern.

Inside the box may look daunting, but it's very few items. 

The lounging seat, the 2 legs, the brackets to put the legs in, the toy bar and then the vibrating piece.

 First you pop the brackets on each end of the seat. They secure down very well.

 Once the brackets are on, you pop the legs on.

 The vibrating portion just pops on the bracket and requires a D battery to operate. It has nubs that touch metal on the bracket and it makes the whole seat vibrate.

 These are the rocking locks. You pop them down to lock it and make it a stationery seat.

 Or put them back in to make it a rocking seat. Really easy to use.

 On one side of the head portion of the seat is this easy adjuster. Just pull the grey tab and then pull the white part OR push down on the seat to get it to recline.

 Seat all the way up

 and the seat all the way down.
Not a huge difference, but enough for a newborn baby.

 3 point harness is safe for baby and there is also a fabric cover to prevent baby from fiddling with it.

 It also folds up, you push the button there on the front and just lift it up (have to take the toy bar off first though).
This makes it easy to move from room to room or to take to grandparents house.

 My 23m old son is obviously WAY too big for this, but he kept saying 'night night' from the time I opened it, and he is under the 30 pound weight limit (he's only about 22-23), so I let him relax in it for a couple minutes.
He looks comfy though even though his little legs are bent, right?

Here is little Liam in it!

I love the reclining feature. My daughter had severe reflux and being in that recline position would really have helped her. It's nice to keep every newborn on a slight incline just so they don't spit up, so that will be used constantly in our house. 

The gentle vibration is really nice too, it's gentle, but definitely enough for an newborn/young infant to relax and get calm to go to sleep. It's also a 2 speed vibration to suit your baby's needs.

I love that the seat can rock OR be stationery. Some babies don't like rocking and some do, so it's nice to have both features and figure out what works best for your little one. 

The seat is very lightweight so it's easy to move from room to room and have baby right next to you at all times. 

I can see myself using this by the bed at night (much smaller than a bassinet/pack n play), in the living room during the day, in the kitchen while I'm cooking, or even outside while the older kids play. It's nice and easy to slide from room to room or to pick up from room to room and put it right where it needs to be at that moment.

It's also meant for babies from 5.5-30 pounds so know that your newborn and infant can use it safely no matter what their weight. 

Price: The Little Lounger is $79.99 and I think it's totally worth it!

Overall: ***** I love this seat, it's really soft, has a lot of great features.
