But, I did come across one that I thought was interesting. FISHER PRICE NATURE'S TOUCH BABY PAPASAN CRADLE SWING http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/ref=b...asin=B0001IU5HY You can set it to swing side-to-side or back and forth. Do any of you have this? If so, what do you think of it? --------------------

The papasan one makes me want my papasan chair back, it looks soooo comfy!

It goes front to back or side to side. I love it. It was nice to be able to change the direction and my babies were sort of small so it was nice to rock them side to side instead of front to back. The only thing is it might take up a little more room then a reg swing. Not sure. I still have mine it is now 7yrs old. I also like I had for ds was the portable swing it folds up which was nice you could take it with you and it took up less room. It worked as a bouncy seat when we were out. My ds loved to sleep in it and we would take it everywhere, I loved both!! -------------------- ] Stacy wife to Jim and mom to Brittany 6/24/99 and Bryce 9/9/02 I've been hit Snowball fight 2006

Wil never liked it much, but I've had other friends rave about it. Wil was more into the vibrating chair (bouncer)! -------------------- Rae SAHM to Wil (4) and Wesley (2) ~ Wife to Richard 10/20/01

Thats the same one I have and Em loved it. I like that you can swing both ways.
