Moms also appreciate five different speeds and three timers to find the perfect calming rhythm.
Graco | DuetConnect™ LX Swing and Bouncer
Graco’s DuetConnect LX does double duty as a soothing swing and a portable bouncer. You can pop the seat out of the swing frame with your little one still strapped in, then carry it using convenient handles wherever you need to go.
