Windy City Novelties Rechargeable Bubble Jet Machine - Includes 10 oz Bubble Solution

Perfect hands free so I can occupy the kids and drink my morning coffee HOT iykykWorth it!!

Pros for this bubble unit is that it is compact and has great color changing lights. I'm not sure that the fan is very strong to blow the bubbles up and away from the the top. What normally happens is that the bubbles start to collect on the top and then it just becomes a bubble flood and not any that go up onto the air. What I found misleading in the description is about the rechargeability. Yes, it is rechargeable/cordless, however, it isn't a regular USB port you plug a charging cord into it. It is an actual rechargeable battery unit that comes with a special USB charging cord that you then place into the bubble machine. If you lose or break the short special USB charging cord you can't charge the unit and it becomes unusable since I couldn't find a replacement cord available.

This machine outputs around a hundred + bubbles a minute and can easily fill a whole room with bubbles in less than 2 minutes. The only problem is that the container that holds the bubble solution is so small that after 2 minutes, you're already 1/4 of the way done with the bottle.... so you can easily finish the bottle in less than 10 minutes. This proves to be inconvenient because if you want a steady stream of bubbles for anymore than 10 minutes... you either have to create your own solution somehow for the tank or.... stop and refill ever 10 minutes which proves to be cumbersome. However, the output of the bubbles is absolutely amazing so for that reason, its a 4 star product.

Bubbles came out great...for about 20 min. Turned on several times later with 2-3 minutes of bubbles. Very disappointed

The bubble machine is very simple to use. There is one button controlling on and off and it operates at one speed. The machine pushes out the bubbles at a good entertaining kids rate. The bubbles shoot straight up and depending on the wind they will circulate through the air. I do wish that the rechargeable battery was built into the machine vs having to remove the battery and hook that up to the included charger. Of course with this option there was no included screwdriver to remove the battery cover. Luckily we have been able to go through a few cycles of bubbles and have not needed to recharge the battery. The bubbles do last about 10 minutes which is great because while not endless I also don't have to sit right next to the machine pouring bubbles the entire time.

The media could not be loaded. I was overly shocked at how many bubbles this small machine can put out. It comes with a small container of bubbles (don't throw it away when empty) that I barely used 1/4 of the bottle for my first time use. The lights were working, but I was taking the video during the day. I can imagine how spectacular it will be at night (low lighting) with the lights on and the bubbles blowing. The only issue I have is that you have to disconnect the battery from the machine to charge it. I would have preferred a USB-A or USB-C connection port on the side of the machine for charging it.I put the appropriate age at 10 because I believe a 10year old would be able to operate the machine without adult supervision. If this is use for a family event with young child, please have an older teen or adult watch to make sure the younger kids don't misuse the machine.

I’ve owned a few bubble machines over the years. The first were bought for my wedding. They were twice the price of this machine but they had remotes pivoted 360 degrees and had several timer settings. We lost those machines in a move and I was looking for something simple to replace them with. I found this which was usb rechargeable like our previous machines and it had a simple on off switch. In use this machine puts out a metric ton of bubbles. It’s amazing to see the tiny bubbles jetting out of the top. So it serves its purpose, but you can do better. The usb charging is done by unscrewing a battery compartment and removing a rechargeable battery that has a pigtail harness. Envision a cordless phone from the 90’s. That battery pigtail has a proprietary plug on it meaning you brick the machine if you misplace the special charging cable. That’s a loss of a star. Next the machines wiring can be seen when refilling the bubble solution. Small current board and solder joints with no RTV or any sort of waterproofing are exposed. I don’t think it’s inherently dangerous but it’s also so cheaply made that I would not expect it to last nor than a year especially if you add kid users to the mix. Mine also leaks out of the bottom. I assume it’s actually drips of bubble solution coming off of the bubble wand mechanism. Not a huge deal but be sure to put something under it ifhave wooden patio furniture or a surface that could stain. In the end my daughter love the machine but I can’t help but be disappointed in how low quality of a device it actually is.

This creates a ton of little bubbles in a short amount of time. I wish there was some variation in size though. Less bubbles, but larger ones would probably be more fun. Aside from that, this is a fun item to set up outside for a toddler's birthday party since toddlers love bubbles.Charging it is kind of a pain since you need a screwdriver to remove the battery to recharge.
