Gazillion Bubbles Hurricane Bubble Machine

What a fun toy! This was purchased as a gift for my one year old that loves bubbles- who doesn’t love bubbles?! I researched way too much for a bubble maker. I wanted something that would create bubbles and would last longer than a couple of months. Here is my takeaway on this bubble maker compared to others.Pros: -Creates SO MANY BUBBLES.-I don’t have to be lightheaded-Told I’m not making them fast enough-Easy to refill-Easy to take apart to clean-Price pointCons: -Takes batteries-Noisy. This might not be an issue when used outside, but it’s winter so I’ve only used it inside so far.-Small bubble solution reservoir. It runs out pretty quickly, but it is easy to refill even while running-The unit vibrates itself while on, so it does move on a smooth surface. Watch when on an elevated surface that it doesn’t fall off.Note: I have had the unit over a month and still works. Only have had it inside. As instructions state, I do clean it after every use and I believe that does help the longevity of the product. I also have only used the Gazillion bubbles solution which seem to create a great quality and quantity bubbles. I cannot say if “cheaper” solutions or homemade solutions will work just as well.Overall the pros outweigh the cons for me. The cons were definitely small ones for me, but could be dealbreakers for others. I recommended this product.

I love this bubbles machine. I think it shot out a lot of bubble my 4 and 1 year old love it. The bubble machine is not loud at all.It just came in today. I order it March 14. I was hoping it would had been here for Easter but the kid still love it.

I have just ordered my second one of these from Amazon because the children love the bubbles it makes. We had our original one for two years and it had a lot of use as I run a day nursery from our home. It stopped working a month ago when it was knocked backwards on the picnic table and the bubble mixture got into the fan motor. As with so many of these machines it is very poorly designed, standing on three legs instead of four, with one front leg on each side and one much lower leg in the middle at the back. Not sure why they could not have put four legs on it to make it stable as it is a very bad design indeed! It knocks over incredibly easily because of this, so I am very surprised that it lasted us as long as it did, as it has had so much bubble mixture tipped into the fan over those two years!Another bad design is the battery compartment which is hard to get into and hard to screw back together again. There is a press-&-clip-on cover over the battery compartment so the inner compartment could have just been a slip-in & click-in type door, instead of the tiny annoying cheap screws that it has. Having said all this though, and despite the poor design and the fact that you will get through batteries at a reasonably quick rate, especially when it is being used several times a day as it is here, you and your children will get a lot of pleasure from owning it. So I have to recommend this bubble blower just because it is cheap, portable, and gives a lot of pleasure if you treat it right and wash the bubble compartment with its removable bubble wheel after each use. I have taken this machine to the park and delighted the children there too, but you have to guard it or the children will want to come and touch and move the machine which will end the fun abruptly!I am now going to buy a more expensive plug-in bubble machine on Amazon as well. One that produces even more bubbles, because we love bubbles and the children just can't ever get enough of them! :~) So a more durable machine that does not use batteries makes sense for our deck. I have one in my cart ready to order soon!

It shot out a ton of bubbles. BUT we had to put it in a tray with river rock to hold it still because it spun and slid off every surface we put it on (it even spun on the cement patio). It is also super top heavy so any time it got even bumped in the slightest, it fell over and spilled the bubble solution. It leaks constantly, but we caught most of the solution in the tray for reuse, so that wasn't a biggie. However it only worked for a few days. The issue isn't the batteries. We're shopping for another bubble machine now, but definitely not purchasing this one again.

I got this machine for my son's 5th birthday party. The kids LOVED it when I brought it out. They had almost as much fun with this than they did with the jumper I rented! It was perfect for the littler ones to play with. I read that if you don't wash it out that the bubble solution could ruin the battery compartment. I was worried about this but now that I have it I can't see how the solution could possibly get into the batteries unless you stored it full of solution while upside down. They must have redesigned the product because I don't see any problems with how it is made or how it works. It's very easy to maintain. I can't say how long it will last but I think I have already gotten my money out of it and it doesn't seem like it will break any time soon.The only negative is that it EATS bubble solution. I got the giant 64 oz refill and we went through most of it at the party and we didn't even have it running the whole time. The small container of bubble solution that it comes with (that you need to refill) runs empty in about 10-15 minutes. I still think it's worth it. The kids seriously thought it was the coolest thing and it added a really cool kid-like atmosphere to the birthday party.

This product is cheap and probably cheaply made. It was a hit with the kids but not the kind of item that can take a hit. After falling it was game over for this little bubble-blowing machine. Wish I could get it going again but it looks like I'll have to buy a new one.Not much weight distribution to this product which causes it to tip over if a surface isn't perfectly flat and spill bubble solution everywhere.The machine is pretty cool it blows tons of bubbles just be prepared for an awkward setup process. Definitely try to avoid setting this up mid-party as it is a nightmare.More than enough screws make the battery compartment a hassle to get into and there's elastic locking the bubble wands in a stationary position and the only way to use the machine is to find a small enough pair of scissors to reach your hand inside of the machine to cut the elastic.Aside from all of those things... as an esteemed bubble machine setup technician - I may try to purchase this again. There may be a better design out there but for $12 I shouldn't feel too bad. Right?

I was concerned with the negative reviews saying that the batteries were hard to put in, the product tipped over easily, and leaked.To start setting up for the first use was easy. Batterie compartment is now on top of the bubble machine making installing batteries very easy. It takes 6 AA batteries. There are 2 zip ties holding the bubble wand in place they are easy to cut off.The machine is not overly loud and I had no problem with leaking. The bubble solution can be added easily to the side of the machine.It blows so many bubbles!!! My 3 and 1 year old loved it, and all the adults were impressed.The bubble solution it came with worked great and lasted a decent amount of time but if you plan on extended use buy more.The machine stands just fine on its own. It can be knocked over kind of easily if bumped so best to keep out of reach of children.Overall it’s great bubble blower and for the cost I’m impressed I didn’t expect it to be this good it definitely blows a gazillion bubbles.

The first one I bought was great, the 2nd. one the wheel does not turn correctly, bought 2nd. one and never used it till after return window expired. Just assumed it would be good. Very disappointed. ok, want to retract this review, I didn't have it connected correctly, works great now. Sorry....

الصراحة الجهاز ممتاز وامتع الاطفال

It makes zillions of bubbles with a bit of blower sound as the fan is powerful. I find this easy to clean as you can take the tray and bubble wand out to wash without affecting the fan and the motor.Overall it is a lot of fun, wont make a mess of the surrounding area, making it suited even for indoor use!

easy to assemble and start but run only for few hours with filling liquid. After that its useless, no more bubbles. tried with washing powder, shampoo, nothing worked.

Les encantó a mis hijos , excelente producto, el único contra es que se acaba rapidísimo el jabón ! Pero esta muy padre

We've tried this bubble machine out twice and look forward to pulling it out again for an upcoming birthday party. We absolutely love it and so does our 2 year old. One word of advice don't let your child play with the machine ;) they'll end up tipping out the bubble solution. It definitely works better (read: more bubbles) with the Funrise Gazillion bubble solution than regular bubble solution. It still works with cheap random brand stuff though. I am very impressed with the amount of bubbles this little machine can produce. I was also impressed at how long it was before I needed to fill up the machine's bubble tray. I didn't time how long it took to run out of solution but our daughter lost interest and was playing with a push car before it stopped making bubbles. I highly recommend this machine and wouldn't hesitate to buy another of this brand. Just make sure to have 6 AA batteries on hand right away because if your child loves bubbles like ours you'll have to use it right away like we did ;) Also definitely take the time to rinse it out with warm water to keep the machine from gumming up due to left over bubble solution residue.
