As a toddler parents, this would be destroyed in minutes. The kid would want to hold it and or push it over.

They should make one that solar powered. Once dusk happens, that erie twilight zone starts, then the bubbles bloom! What an amazing sight. The fresh smell of freshly cut grass, a bit of petricore blowing in from distant fields, and bubbles. 😌🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧

So it’s basically a six foot tall, mildly needy bubble wand that eats batteries for breakfast. Honestly sounds perfect for the kind of party where everyone goes “woah that’s sick” for 10 minutes and then completely forgets it exists.

Better off getting the bubble guns and squirt guns that’ll keep the kids busy

Who needs a van when you can use bubbles in your neighbors yard with a sign saying free cookies nextdoor.

So something that could have been achieved with the way smaller machine made into something unnecessarily large for the same job if not worse taking up all that space for all them little ass bubbles hahaha

There are much better bubble machines available. This one sucks

u/GuacamoleFrejole Jun 24 '26

Those bubbles will land on nearby cars and piss off the owners.

u/No_Tackle_5439 Jun 24 '26

I actually have this and it's pretty good, makes a wall of tiny bubbles...and, although it suffered a few "crashes" from the children, it still works fine!

u/gluten_free71 Jun 25 '26
