4moms mamaRoo 4.0 Rocker/Bouncer Classic Black

Product Information

The swing itself though is sturdy and well-made. Despite its technical abilities, with a footprint of around 58cm, it actually doesn't take up a lot of space.

There is a mobile over the seat that's easy to remove or turn out of the way. This is the only piece of the mamaRoo4 that feels flimsy a bit to me. On a previous mamaRoo I've tested, the plastic that holds the mobile in place wore down after a couple of months and I couldn't use it any more. I've been much more careful with this new model, and it's holding up fine. Sweet Seat, Soft SpeakersKeeping your baby safe and comfortable is one of the most important tasks you’ll ever face as a parent, particularly in the first few months of infancy. We’re here to help. The mamaRoo sleep bassinet features a firm, flat sleep surface that is designed to help your baby fall asleep and stay asleep longer. It can be used for both overnight sleep and naps throughout the day. As a parent, you’ve probably seen hundreds of baby products on the market. Unlike many manufacturers, 4moms Australia focuses on creating products that will actively make a difference for parents and babies alike. Luci found it easy to lift her baby in and out of the MamaRoo, with an easy clip harness that made adding and removing her baby a breeze. It was also very flexible for positioning as the seat can be raised or lowered on the frame to suit your exact preferences. Also, I love the mesh sides so I can see my baby, I love how the sheet is washable, and I loooove the storage bin underneath. I think this product may just revolutionize bedtime.

She says, “The MamaRoo has quite a futuristic/contemporary design which is best suited to a modern or minimalist home. It may look a bit out of place in a traditional cottage or rustic property.” Once you are successfully connected, the Wi-Fi indicator on the base of your MamaRoo will be illuminated blue. If your baby isn’t into swaying move on to bouncing, continue until you find one they love. These movements are designed to mimic different moves that typically calm a baby. During testing, small stains such as milk wiped away easily, whereas marks such as tomato ketchup left a small residue which then came out entirely after a full wash in the washing machine.The MamaRoo® Multi-Motion Baby Swing™ is the only baby swing that moves like you do. Inspired by you, our motions mimic parents’ natural rhythms and movements to become the most familiar space to safely put your baby down when they can’t be in your arms. She adds, “I wouldn’t take this away with me unless perhaps I was going away for more than a week or had a baby who would only settle in this as it’s quite large. I would also want to dismantle it before moving it in case it breaks.” The 4moms app is available for Android and iOS devices. It's the same app you use for other 4moms products, such as the Moxi Stroller. Pairing the app with the seat is simple —the app walks you through the process, but basically all you have to do is select mamaRoo from the main menu and the app will automatically locate and connect to the seat. From there you can control settings such as motion, speed, sound, and volume. This product is not intended, designed or marketed for sleep or unsupervised use. If baby falls asleep, move baby as soon as possible to a firm, flat sleep surface such as a crib or bassinet.

The mamaRoo has five different settings that mimic the soothing motions that seem to come naturally to people when they have a baby in their arms. The motion and sounds are controlled either via the hard buttons on the base of the unit or by the mobile app, which uses Bluetooth to control the seat. Large, easy-to-see buttons make it easier to change settings and power the seat on and off with your foot than previous models. (The buttons sit only a couple of inches off the ground, so using your foot feels fairly natural.) One of the things I always look for with babies is, “How easy is it to clean?” Maybe it’s just me but if something is machine washable I am here for it. Easy to remove and throw in the wash are musts in our household because I just don’t have time to wash things by hand and also who even wants to do that?
