Promising review: "I saw this online and saw it was very cute, but cheap so I gave it a try. I’m glad I did; the machine works very well and blows a lot of bubbles at a time. My kids were very entertained, and they enjoyed it so much! The only thing is it worked so well that we ran out of bubble solution. The reservoir is very small, so the solution runs out quick! Make sure to buy a refill when buying the machine. Other than that, your kids will have so much fun!" —Pre K teacher
