Swings with batteries ?

[army_mom]

How fast do the swings with batteries go thru batteries? Do they eat thru them quickly or does a pack of batteries last a reasonable amount of time?
Is getting one that plugs in an important feature to you?

TIA!

My Graco Lovin' Hug would go a several days, a few hours per day. I recommend getting rechargeable batteries. . . you'll be able to use the batteries long after DC has outgrown the swing.

I vote for the plug in one! DD loves her swing.

My FP swing went through them quickly too, so we did rechargables. It depends on how much you use the swing of course. We used ours a lot.

I used rechargeable batteries last time. I think I had to change them out every few days, so I had two full sets. I'm thinking about getting a plug-in swing next time, since our batteries are dead now and we'd need to spend at least $40 to replace them.
