Snoo, worth it?

Question

FTM desperate for a little sleep. LO is 8 weeks old and seems eternally unhappy when awake. I’ve heard a lot about Snoo and have been considering taking the leap, but with a price tag like that, I want to know if other parents found it worth it.
I’ve tried traditional, zip up, and Velcro swaddles of all kinds, which she sleeps well with but always breaks out of, white noise, rocking, etc. and nothing can keep this baby asleep. She needs to be rocked to sleep which is so hard half-awake at 2-4am.
So, parents with the Snoo... worth it?

Answer

My brother has it. His baby has good nights and bad nights just like mine. 
If you have a lot of extra money to throw around, it is pretty cool. But if you’re pulling together money trying to afford this thing in some desperate attempt to get your baby to sleep then no it’s definitely not worth it. It is not a miracle sleep machine.

Answer

We have one. Got it for essentially a 55% discount but of course it was still the baby item purchase we debated most at that still huge price. Baby is 5 weeks old and we started using it when he was 8 days. I’ll say this - we hardly slept at all those firs 8 days because the second we put baby down he cried to be held. On day 9, first night in the snoo, the gentle rocking motion and white noise meant that I actually put baby down partly awake and he was asleep in under 30 seconds without me doing a thing. Since then he has slept 3-4 hr stretches consistently (he is only 5 weeks so still wants to eat and is growing a ton). Also, I like the peace of mind knowing he cannot roll over in the swaddle. 
My friend swore by the snoo and had no trouble weaning off it at 6 months. We would buy it again. 
Never ever buy full price they do 40% off, also there is a big market for second hand snoos for even less. And also available to rent.

Answer

There is a method where you can pin the arms down with a swaddle blanket then put them in a traditional swaddle so they can’t break free

Answer

I don’t have it but they do have a rental option now so maybe you could try it
