Key differences:
The main difference between InLighten and Compact models is the weight of the two swings. Compact weighs 7.09 lbs, about 3 pounds lighter than InLighten which weighs 10.6 lbs.
The InLighten retails for about $110 to $200 depending on the color of the InLighten model you pick. On the other hand, Ingenuity Compact is cheaper with all its four varieties going from $100 to $120. It is actually on offer as of this publication in April 2022 and can get it for less than $75.
The weight and portability of Ingenuity Compact make it the better choice for carrying around or if you are looking to save some space. However, InLighten is a full-sized swing with all the features that come with it while being portable as well.
When making your decision, consider where you will be using the swing the most and if you need the extra features that come with InLighten. If you are looking for a cheap, lightweight, and portable swing, go for Ingenuity Compact. However, if you want a full-sized swing with all the features, InLighten is the better choice.
