Little Kids PAW Patrol Motorized Bubble Machine (Includes 4 fl oz of bubble solution)

I posted this in a review a while back for one of the paw patrol machines, figured it might be helpful here. These toys are so much fun until you are out of bubble solution. I went looking for refills and couldn't find any - you need paw patrol by the way because you are trying to make big bubbles, regular bubble stuff will not work. I could not find a refill anywhere - lots of places sold the bubblator we had, none sold refills. Grrr.So I did some research and experimenting and came up with this replacement. Buy a big container of regular bubble stuff (I got a 100oz Miracle Bubbles) and a 4oz bottle of Glycerin (available in the soap / skin care section of drugs stores - but not all of them (Walgreens did not have it, I found mine in CVS, little plain brown bottle Dump the entire bottle of glycerin into the Miracle Bubbles. Mix gently (don't shake vigorously). Do this a day or two in advance of using for best results (the glycerin needs to age a little) - however I did use it right away and did pretty well. Voila - 100oz of replacement bubbles for cheap rather than one tiny little bottle. Enjoy!I haven't tested this in this product specifically, but it worked great in the paw patrol we own.

I'm actually surprised at how well this bubble machine worked!! We got it for my 2 year old for Easter and he loved it. It blew non stop bubbles and a TON of them! Unfortunately he tried placing it on the counter and it fell on my tile floor and broke but that is our fault and not the product! He's upset it broke so will have to order another one! Really is a great bubble machine and what toddler doesn't love Paw Patrol?! :)

We had original bubble machine, and it broke after several months use.We love this kind of bubble machine, so we bought another one from Amazon.Surprisingly, this paw patrol one looks a little different from the original one. The bottom of machine is three pieces of plastic, looks cheap,However, it stands on grass more sturdy than the old one!!!The On/Off is on the top of machine!!! More easier to turn on/off and not make my hand slimy!!The most important thing is it makes lots of bubble!!!

Bought this a couple of months ago for my six year old son. He wanted a "bubble machine" for his birthday. This toy works great, and will fill the entire room with smaller bubbles within about two minutes. A single fill will last about 10-15 minutes of constant use. Overall, not a bad investment, but do take care to use good brand-name batteries (Low quality batteries will result in the spinner to be jerky and pause)My only con- the base could use a re-design. The triangular base isn't good for rambunctious kids. It got knocked over more than once by kids dancing in the curtains of bubbles. If you are worried about spilling bubble solution, you probably should set it up where the kids can't reach and/or put a towel down under the base as pro-active measures.

Makes lots of bubbles the first couple times. However, the bubble liquid leaks over the side and infiltrates the battery compartment underneath. Overnight, our batteries corroded and the bubble machine would not operate. Cleaned it up, dried it out, put new batteries in, it turned back on. Again, overnight the soap corroded the batteries and it once again does not work. Waste of money.

It's amazing that such a cute, tiny little bubble blower can cause so much entertainment and joy. It's a little louder than I would like and runs out of bubbles faster than the kids would like but all in all I am very happy with this purchase.

this bubble blower is amazing when you first get it. literally bubbles flooding the room in seconds. my 3 year old could not have been happier and loved dancing around in the bubble madness that was my living room. until the day came, it was officially 3 days old in our home and it got knocked off of the coffee table. literally fell no more than 2 feet (I think my table sits at 18inches tall) and the blower hit the wood laminate flooring, missing the area rug by a few inches. it broke. there was a loud raddling noise inside when it was started, as if some plastic piece fell and was stuck inside. my husband opened it up, saw nothing removable and put it back together (fairly easy to do as all you need is a screw driver.) the rattling stopped, but the blower engine was SO loud now, that we cant even enjoy this blower any more because the noise hurts my child's ear.while I understand that the toy falling was not at fault of the toy/seller/company/etc, I do think that a toy designed and marketed towards "little kids" should be able to withstand an 18inch drop without serious repercussions. I will now be looking into ordering a different machine for my child, since I need something more "toddler proof."

Have had bubble machines in the past... they don't work well, but this one, RIGHT away started blowing bubbles, and consistently. Awesome product, bought 2! one for our son's birthday party and one for a friends birthday gift. Not expensive and absolutely adorable! Highly recommend... you can get different characters, but the pricing is different, this was one of the cheaper ones.
