To save room it’s best to go for a portable and foldable baby swing, these are highly compact and can fold down and stored away.

Even though it’s a portable swing, it is still automatic, although to get it started you need to give it a small push and then the motor will kick in and take over.

The swing is very lightweight, it folds down with a click of a button and has a unique top handle that makes carrying and moving around a breeze.

The only down slide to portable swings is that they are all powered by batteries and not plug in, which means you could end up spending a lot on batteries. It would be a good idea to get rechargeable ones.

Just like all stand at home swings this portable swing offers all the same features, it has 5 swing speeds, includes sounds and melodies and can be used by newborn babies.

A good thing is that it is small and lightweight, it is also very quiet when in operation, some are very loud, not this one.

This swing is our number one choice because it’s not only compact, it also has a timer. You can set it to operate for 30, 45 or 60 minute sessions.

The top bar at the top can be removed with a click, saving even more space if needed. Fold up and put away with ease, what more could you need.

Our test baby loved the swing, we have used many baby swings and this one rates highly although the seating area is not as padded or comfortable as many others. This is a draw back when buying portable baby swings.

A baby swing with tray is a good option if you want them to feed in it or play with toys, this one does not include a tray.

If you are looking for the most compact baby swing that is not a travel swing then this one is the smallest and best option.

Why is this such a good swing? It’s good to purchase a baby swing that not only moves side to side, but head to toe too. Why? Because some babies only like to swing on one direction or the other.

The swing operates at 6 different speeds, has 16 songs and sounds built in.

Another very important feature, the seat can recline. Some babies do not like to be sat completely upright or laid flat, so having a reclining seat is a must have feature for a happy baby. A reclining swing is also referred to as a colic baby swing. Also, to stop baby crying it’s good to get a baby swing with lights.

The seat covers can be removed and they are machine washable. The seating area is deep and very cosy, it’s well padded. Out test baby fell asleep in the swing after just ten minutes.

Also, it can be powered by ac adaptor only, so can be run battery free making it cheaper to use.

The operating panel is at the top so you do no have to bend down all the time to change swing speeds or the music settings.

The unit does not fold down, however it does not take up a lot of room so is good to leave up. It’s tall but not wide, so does not take up much floor space at all.

Many parents state that baby swings are an absolute life saver, and yes they are. If you have a baby that suffers from colic or reflux this will change your life.

The swing emulates being cradles by your parents in their arms, they really settle problem babies and help them get over to sleep.

If you have not tried one before then I highly recommend that you take a look at them. This one is priced just over $100, so not very expensive at all.

If you really are very short on space then the best option for you would be to go for a travel baby swing, these ones are super compact in width and height. Just about all of them fold down too, very convenient when short on space.
