Question 1

When it's turned on it shifts in a circle. Does it suppose to do that? I saw one at a party fixed/sitting in one place.

Accepted Answer

No, it's not.  There is a website that has info. to fix this and another problem with the machine.  I used the advice for mine and it works perfectly now.  It's Wayne Schmidt's Bubble Page.  Basically:1: Add weight 1 1/4 pound weight - CAP Barbell Standard 1-Inch Cast Iron Weight Plate, Single (Cost $2 - $4)  I used a glue gun to glue the weight on.  First, I let it sit out in the sun to make sure the glue didn't  set too fast on the cold surface.2. Glue on a piece of rubber to the bottom of the weight (rubber shelf liner works well.)3. Use a 12 ounce sprite bottle to dispense the bubble solution.All of this information was from the website (except the sprite bottle.  He uses a different type of bottle).  He even has a video to explain everything.  *The original design of this machine was more stable and it didn't jump around.  Unfortunately, the new design needs some tweaking to make it work.  I love my bubble machine now.

Question 2

How loud is this when it's on?

Accepted Answer

I don't remember it being very loud at all.  The kids loved it.

Question 3

How long does one bottle of bubbles last? My son's birthday is 2 hours and I need to know how many bottles to purchase. Thanks!

Accepted Answer

The small bottle that comes with this (4 oz or so) lasts about 15 minutes. You can empty the entire small bottle into the unit's reservoir, but at around 15 minutes, the unit will start to sputter as the wands no longer get fully immersed in the bubble solution. Buy the 2 liter bubble solution, it was just $5.

Question 4

is it automatic

Accepted Answer

It requires six AA batteries and has an on and off switch on the back.  A series of wands rotate through the reservoir of bubble solution and then past a fan.  Auto bubbles until you turn the switch off.
