1 out of 5 stars review

Broke within the 1st month we had it.

We purchased this vending machine brand new $5,000 from Sam's - within the first month that we bought it the machine stopped cooling our drinks. The machine showed that it was 90 degrees where the soda's were being stored. I called customer service and they did trouble shoot the machine with me and that did not work. So they sent me a part out to replace the compressor or whatever cools the machine. The machine worked for about 2 weeks and then stopped cooling again. I called customer servicer AGAIN and they sent out a repair man to fix the machine. He said the part that was sent out was a used part and that it was defective. He repaired the part and got it to work. About 3 days later the vending machine stopped working/cooling again. It has been almost 2 months now that we have not been able to sale drinks because the vending machine does not cool. We have called customer service almost daily to get someone to repair it and to check on getting a new part. The repair man showed up today and is working to replacing the defective part - however he pointed out to us the part that was shipped was once again a "Used Part" - so issues may arise again. Uggggh. Buyers remose big time! Do not purchase this machine.

Looks good but doesn't work

I ordered the machine in October and just got it last week. However the real issue is that it will except coins but not bills or the card. I like how the instructions made everything easy to figure out but the bill reader not working. Also the cash box is stuck and will not come off.

Bought it at Sam's club, used white glove delivery and it was delivered today. Locking mechanism is not functioning, unable to open the door for initial setup. Secondly, been waiting on the call for customer support for more than an hour, no luck so far to get to a representative. Thank you Praveen

GREAT VENDING MACHINE

I bought 10 over a year ago... As a vendor, you are "ONLY AS GOOD AS THE MACHINE YOU USE". The company itself has been around for decades. The machine works where if a snack gets suck, it will push another out until it falls, so in some cases the customer might get two instead of one, BUT they will not lose there money and you look like a rock-star vendor. Holds a lot of snacks and drinks and NEVER stops working... Easy to use, easy to program. If your in a Laundromat, or near a bus-stop and they try and use it as a coin change machine and decide not to make a purchase, the machine will dispense dollar GOLD coins so you will never run out of change...

POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE

DO NOT BUY THE CARD READER, MINE DOES NOT WORK, BUT I CANT GET ANYONE TO HELP, WHEN YOU TRY CALLING, THEY PUT YOU ON HOLD FOR HOURS AND NO ONE WILL ANSWER AND THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO CANCEL THEY JUST KEEP CHARGING MY CARD 8.49 PER MONTH,

We sincerely apologize for your purchase experience. It's certainly not reflective of our historical customer support levels that span over 90 years. Our card reader partner had EMV regulation changes that resulted in an extended period of high call and email volume to our customer support team. Please call us directly at 800-323-8793 if you need help and we'll work hand-in-hand with our customer support team to ensure you are always up and running as you should be. Thank you.

Perfect for a small business

We received our machine in Dec 2018. It's great to have the combo machine to save on space in the lunchroom. Rebate is awesome, it definitely help in the purchase of this machine.

Love the new Machine

We have used the machine for 8 months now in the business and we are very happy! It does exactly what it's supposed to do. Love the 2 separate compartments for candy and snacks and the other for cold beverages. Would recommend it!
