A foam machine can be cheap to build, or remarkably expensive, depending greatly on the materials and hardware you already have to hand. The main components required are a foam cone, a pump, a tank, and an air supply. This guide is just one way to produce a foam machine, with an aim towards using cheap and readily available components. If you’ve got money to throw at the build, or lots of great gear lying around, there are other paths to take, but this should get you started in the right direction. The basic layout of a remote-air foam machine. Contrast this to a direct foam machine, where the membrane and sprinkler head are affixed directly to the outlet of the air source. The water pump has the job of delivering soapy water from the tank to the foam cone, with enough pressure to nicely atomise it through the spray nozzles. Any pump capable of delivering 10 liters per minute with a few meters of head should be suitable, but finding something appropriately specified can be difficult for the uninitiated. Zoek 'Bought this machine first time round and was great. Lasted a good half hour on and off creating great bubbles. We also bought the solution which was fab. The next day, we went to use again and it wouldn’t work. The mechanism was working but it wouldn’t blow bubbles. We changed batteries etc but still nothing. We exchanged it for the same machine the next day. 2nd machine was exactly the same. Worked great for the first day. Next day, wouldn’t blow bubbles. Returned for a gift card.' Neil 'Worked for 2 days now just blowing bubble solution not bubbles. I’ve tried 3 types of solution including super concentrated and changed batteries no joy. Don’t bother with it, my son is really disappointed as he loved it when it worked.' Bubbles are magic because they are fleeting, and they look like they shouldn’t exist. So that’s why the presence of bubbles make your kids feel like a mermaid under the sea, or a fairy in an enchanted kingdom, or a space ranger ready to take on the alien bubble invasion. Even if you don’t need an industrial strength bubble machine, kids’ bubble blowers are a great way to elevate everyday play. Bonus: most machines and wands are pretty sealed, so there’s less opportunities for your curious toddler to spill the entire container of bubble solution and end all the fun.

Dianne 'Lightweight and easy to carry around for toddlers whilst hundreds of bubbles fly through the air. Lots of fun and the bubble flow very consistent Good value for money.'

How Do Foam Machines Work?
Kids’ bubbles and bubble machines are great toys for summer days playing outdoors. Create a whole stream of shimmering bubbles in an instant with a bubbles machine – just add the included bubble mix, and let the toy fill your garden with bubble fun. Or add a playful twist to gardening role play with a bubble mower toy for tots.
Kate '21 month old Grandson absolutely loved this especially as he could work it himself. Well worth the price. Bigger than expected too.' Danj 'I brought it for my nephews birthday party all the kids loved it! Blows out so many bubbles kept them entertained for ages! Brought some cheap bubble solution to top it up and works amazingly' If you’ve ever blown bubbles, you’ll be familiar with the basic theory. Create a soap film across an opening, and then blow air through, and it’s possible to form a bubble. Ruth 'Granny bought for my four yr olds birthday and it was a great hit. He's used it several times since and I have already bought refill bubbles in anticipation of further use. Very easy to use with little hands/fingers as he has struggled with other water pistol type toys.' TRTG 'I bought this for my 5 year old son as his previous bubble gun broke at the end of last summer. So easy to use and it certainly brought a lot of happiness and oodles of giggles whilst chasing his friends in the garden with it. Would recommend it and we are already looking into buying the other type sold by Argos with led lights! Make sure you have plenty of bubble liquid available though as the kids will not want to put it down!'

Quite literally, good clean fun. Avison 'I bought this for my Grandson a few weeks ago. He played with it the 1st day, brilliant. The next week he came over and it didn't work. Things were going round but no bubbles. Got in touch with Argos & Chad Valley, had no response from either of them. Absolutely appalling customer service' Chez 'I love this bubble blower, it’s sturdy and blows lots of bubble at the press of a button. It’s Easy to use and doesn’t leak. No spills - great thrills'
With its realistic design and mechanical sounds, this toy will be an ideal birthday present for kids. The leaf blower can be used everywhere, for example in the garden, park, party or you can take it to the beach. Can be played with friends and family. Safety is a big factor when working with a foam machine. In any rig that combines water and electricity, precautions must be taken to avoid risk of electrocution; consequences can be tragic if this is not paid due consideration. Placing the leaf blowers inside a cabinet reduced noise, but also increased operating temperatures. This was closely monitored to avoid fire.BisouPierre 'Already provided hours of fun for grandson in the first week. Easy for adult to reload bubble mixture, and easy for child to work: a must-have toy for every small child who wants to work with carer or parent in the garden. (Or for use indoors, but I'm probably not allowed to say that). Can't comment on quality yet as it has only survived a week of intensive use ...' PinkBlur 'This is the second one I've wasted money on, they're absolutely rubbish! The first one I wrongfully accused my poor children of somehow breaking, it worked at first but after about halfway through the bubble mix bottle provided it just stops blowing bubbles. It still makes noise and you can feel the fan blowing but no bubbles and bubble mix just starts leaking/seeping from the underneath. I then bought a second and didn't let the children near it, the exact same thing happened so it's clearly a design fault. At just under a score a pop, you'd think they'd last longer than 1 lousy day!' Tinab 'My daughter loves it. But I think the water filler does not fix properly, because when it is not upright, water leaks. Everthing else is good.' Rosh 'My son loves this bubble machine, keeps him entertained for ages, very reasonable price would definitely recommend!'
