My mom bought this for my boys at wal-mart. total waste of money. you have to dip the blower in the tray of bubble solution and it leaks all over the place..and then to fill it with the smoke is a nightmare. basically it leaks all over the place. you have to constantly squeeze the trigger to get bubbles to blow WHILE holding down the smoke button. Not possible for a child to do! Its difficult enough for an adult since you have to pump it the right amount of times just to get one bubble and then have to dip it again!

Interesting idea, but must not have been tested by an average or above average child. None of our family has been able to work the toy. Tried different type of bubble soap, but still did not work. I was worried about being able to find replacement smoke, but now, just need a replacement birthday gift.

Simply put, it does not work. If you are lucky enough to get a bubble out of it, it is too heavy to float. The bubble goes straight down to the ground and usually pops as it is falling off the bubbler. This company should be sued for false advertising -- big time. The Magic Smokey Bubbler deserves ZERO stars.

(Psssst! The Gazillion Bubblator is much better and easier to make bubbles -- large, floating bubbles!)

Never did work. No worthwhile bubbles. 6 batteries (AA), for what? The "smoke" was caustic. Don't waste your money. Don't waste your time. Don't let you kid get excited about it - guaranteed to disappoint!

This was purchased for my niece last week. Wouldn't make no bubbles I tried every thing. I had to order another bubble maker for my niece since the poor girl was sad and was crying.

When I purchased, I assumed, we have to fill some liquid inside, and it will generate bubbles on button press... But we have to dip the gun-tip in bubbles soap, and the air produced by gun generates bubbles.

It needs six batteries. I was thinking, batteries are used to generate smoke bubble, as such to generate bubble(without smoke), I don't see much batteries use. Better, if some mechanical thing could have produced enough air to generate bubbles. Air produced without batteries are very less.

Even with batteries, rarely good bubbles are formed, and most of the time, few ones or none.

Smoke produced by the gun, also give burning smell, not really good for kids.

Like others, we saw this on TV and thought it was a neat idea. While not badly made, the thing just doesn't work. We've tried and tried (3 adults and 2 children) and have yet to get a single bubble. Plenty of smoke though....

When you can get the bubbles working it's fascinating. It's not battery powered so you have to push the trigger several times to get the "motor" going. Then you have to quickly dunk it in the bubbles and push the trigger more. Generally I don't have a problem getting multiple bubbles at once, but your finger gets tired from the trigger! The bubbles are easier to see when they're filled with the vapor.. you can watch them float easier, and when they pop the vapor drifts upwards. They do fall quickly though, so I stood on my deck and sent the bubbles down to my daughter. The vapor liquid goes quick... I came on here hoping to find refills, but I may end up getting another blower instead. This is a really cool idea.... they just have to work on the design.. so I'd say try another brand.

I got this smokey bubbler for my daughter to add to her easter basket...It is a rip off...it blows a lot of smoke like it should..but it blows no bubbles. It doesnt work. The commercials show it blowing tons of bubbles and it wont blow one single bubble...My daughter was very dissapointed and so was I.

Like most other 3 year olds, my son loves playing with bubbles, we received this as a gift, so I took this with us when we went camping. My son was really excited to see me pack it, but he was so disappointed when it didn't work. I thought it was my batteries, so I got new batteries for it, and it still doesn't work.

Hope the person who bought this for my son didn't pay $25. This is worth nothing. I would give it ZERO star if I can.
