Finally I can stop blowing bubbles!, March 26, 2005
= Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:2.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Portable Professional Bubble Party Machine (Toy)
My mom bought this bubble blower a few months ago and we have had so much fun with it. I had to buy one for myself. My kids love bubbles, but always want me to blow them. This machine pumps out hundreds of bubbles, and the kids and dog can chase them while I can get some gardening done. This is fun for parties too!

Bubble Machine Comparison, June 12, 2006
= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Portable Professional Bubble Party Machine (Toy)
Comparison of:
-Bubble Party Machine
-Gazillion Bubble Machine
-Typhoon the Ultimate Bubble Fountain
-Bubble Party Machine
-Creative Motion 80202-9 Bubble Machine
I purchased the 4 above Bubble Machines for a local
New Orleans event, The PussyFooters' Car Wash, and didn't
want to be disappointed, since the bubbles were to be used
for attracting drivers' attention. These are my findings.
#1 Overall - Bubble Party Machine
Of the 4 machines this was the ONLY one to deliver as one would expect.
Used the AC adaptor (included), didn't try the 8 C cells.
Immediate bubbles each and every time you turn it on
Double wands, offset from each other, results in continuous bubbles.
Directional flaps to control air flow.
Windy conditions and still bubbled.
The Only problem was that it has a tendency to "spit" soap solution along with the bubbles (due to the extra strong fan).

One review says that "Only one side was blowing bubbles and they were very, very weak". There are directional flaps inside that redirect the fan's air. If these are 90 degrees off, then they will block the fan, i.e. no bubbles, otherwise, if the fan is blowing, the wheel is turning, and soap is in the tray, this thing will bubble!
The rest are hard to rate, they all came in fourth compared to the
output of the Bubble Party Machine.
Gazillion Bubble Machine
Used 6 AA batteries.
Not bad for the price, worked when protected from the wind.
Creative Motion 80202-9 Bubble Machine
Might have worked if not so windy, used the AC adaptor included.
When working, gaps between bubbles.
Mishandling caused wand wheel to snap.
-Gazillion Bubble Machine
Used 8 AA batteries.
Extremely poor design, uses a pump to pump solution from bottom to top resulting
in heavy battery consumption.
Attempts to coat wand in horizontal position, many "duds" resulting in few bubbles.

This review is from: Portable Professional Bubble Party Machine (Toy)
We purchased this toy after my daughter enjoyed playing with this at my sister's house. In spite of reading the reviews stating this toy didn't always work, we purchased it...and, of course, it didn't work properly. Only one side was blowing bubbles and they were very, very weak. I spoke with my sister and she admitted that her bubble machine has good days and bad days. Needless to say, we returned it.
