The Munchkin and the Mamaroo are both awesome baby swing options! They have a lot in common, but there are also a whole bunch of differences to speak of.
Recline
This is one of the differences we found to be most important when we compared the Munchkin to the Mamaroo Multi-Swing. The Munchkin does not have an adjustable recline, but the Mamaroo does, so you can angle it to the perfect position to keep your baby comfortable!
Sounds & Motion
The Mamaroo has the upper hand in this one, too. It has six modes of motion, including a new Find your roo customizable option where you can create your own Mamaroo motion. The five other motions are Kangaroo, Car Ride, Tree Swing, Rockabye, and Wave. The Munchkin has 5 levels of range of motion.
Weight
The Mamaroo is over 5 pounds heavier than the Munchkin, and much harder to move from one place to the next because of its design. The bonus of this is that it can hold up to 25 pounds, while the Munchkin swing can only hold up to 20 pounds.
Smart Features
Both of these baby swings have plenty of smart features! The Munchkin and Mamaroo are both Bluetooth enabled, and come with a smart touch-sensitive control panel. Besides that, the Mamaroo is soon going to also be compatible with Alexa and Google Home!
Mamaroo Vs Munchkin Cost
If price point is a turning point for you, the Munchkin is probably the most on-target option for you! Although it has less motion options and no adjustable recline, it does offer a basic side-to-side sway with 5 levels of range of motion which babies love.
It's incredibly easy to take apart, and therefore more compact and travel-ready. And, best of all, it’s over $50.00 less! And, of course, if you purchase it at PishPosh Baby you'll pay even less - because of our points system!
