Prepared to be Blown Away with Bubbles!

I bought this thing for my mobile DJ rig. It is what it is: a BUBBLE MACHINE'S bubble machine. It has 2 fans and 2 double-wands for creating bubbles (controlled independently) which creates A LOT of bubbles, and then it's got a powerful secondary fan system for blowing the bubbles up in the air. It's very simple to use: you literally dump your bubble fluid directly into the front-loading trough, snap the wands on and flip the power switch and instantly you have HUNDREDS of bubbles being generated per minute. All-metal construction with plastic wheels on the bottom and plastic handles on the top. It's not heavy-duty by any means, but at least it's not plastic. Weight-wise, it's fairly heavy (American DJ's website says 32 pounds, but I think that includes the gallon of bubble juice) and extremely bulky. Included with the unit is a timer remote to control the time/duration of the bubbles. The only issue I have with it is that my remote doesn't work. There are manual buttons on the back that turn on each half of the unit, but the remote control does nothing. I still haven't figured out what the problem is, so for now I just turn it on manually with the switches in the back. When you're done using it, simply use the handy drain valve on the back of the unit to drain all of the unused bubble juice back into the bottle, wipe out the juice trough, and pack it up. Because of its size/bulkiness, you'll be figuring out your own case for this one. I hauled it around in its packaging for a while until I was able to buy a rolling hard case with wheels to transport it.
Kids love bubbles and this thing looks incredible under blacklights. In fact, that's the main reason I bought it: glow-in-the-dark bubbles. You have to be careful though: bubble juice is essentially soapy water and soap is slippery. I've found that I need to keep a constant eye on the dance floor or the floor in general because it will get slippery if you're not keeping an eye on things. I generally run it in small durations to protect myself from this.
A gallon of bubble juice is included with the unit, which "saves" you about $30 (though I'm not sure how much you're "saving" when the unit costs around $300).
It's big, it's heavy and it's expensive, but if you're in the bubble business, this is the machine to own. It makes bubbles faster than you can imagine, puts them up about 15 feet in the air, and blows them about 20 feet back. In my humble opinion, it's a far better unit than the largest bubble machine Chauvet makes. Blows the bubbles farther too.
Impressive machine, highly recommended.
I would recommend this to a friend

I just received my bubble blast in about five days. I turn it on in my home and the kids and I had a wondeful time with it. I recommend the bubble machine to anyone it's very fun to have. I will purchase another one later on in the future. I hope this machine last me a long time, Longer than a year. At this point I don't know what's not so great about it. Buy one I gurantee you wil love it.
