Hmmm, we got one for our nephew and it worked fine. Is the fan thing spinning around?

We have it and you need to get the really good expensive batteries. The cheaper ones don't power it enough. Sometimes if you give the trunk a tap near the base you can get some to come up    HTH!

We had one but I though it was a pain to use & frustrating, hardly ever got the butterfly's out so I took it back.

The fan works, we have panasonic heavy duty's in it and I've tried tapping th base we got it off TM but the seller said we could return it if we wanted. Disappointing coz it would be awesome fun if it workes properly! The seller did say that 'flattening' the butterflies helped so might try that. Thanks guys

Ours is good, we had older batteries in it and it didnt work too well, DP bought just normal panasonic or duracell ones and its great, DD is only one so likes to watch it. The older boys aka 20+ yr olds love it lol. We make sure that the trunk is straight so that there are no kinks and stuff in it
