This is JUNK. For the $15 I paid it is a truly expensive JUNK!! If it was offered at $2, it would still be JUNK!!
As you can see in the picture the front part (the bubble former) detaches, falls off quite easily. The propeller blades are made of super thin foam that curls up at the slightest contact with anything (and as we well know, kids -- and pets -- aren't too careful with their toys!)
I've purchased bubble guns before (from Walmart, etc.) and the bubble formers on those didn't fall off, and the propeller blades were made of thicker foam. I sometimes use the bubble gun (without the bubbles) on my cat who happens to like butting his face onto the ridged surface of the bubble former and loves the whirring noise and "whap-whap" of the propeller. Those bubble guns were sturdy! The bubble formers held up fine against my cat's head-butts and pawing, and the prop blades remained intact despite the bite marks my cat inflicted on them. The only reason I had to ditch them was that it seems that the battery contacts fail/loosen over time. My cat and I got at least more than a year of fun out of those bubble guns. When the last one I had finally died, I decided I'd buy one from Amazon. The fact that it cost almost $15 should have stopped me in my tracks, but I went against my instinct and bought it thinking it must be a well-built toy if it's that expensive. What a mistake.
So there, you've been warned. DO NOT BUY THIS. It's a piece of #*@!. And for almost $15 dollars?? The manufacturer and distributor of this toy are laughing at our being duped by them all the way to the bank. Ggrrrr!! I can't return it because I had thrown away the packaging.
