This is a must read whether you own machines or are getting ready to make your first purchase!!! 
The bulk vending machines on this page is the one of my favorite and the highest quality ever available and made!!!!
Any low maintenance Quality machine that does GUMBALLS is SUPER for a SUCCESSFUL Route!

Following is written by a successful vendor and an expert in dozens of bulk vending machines!

Do you see any 4 compartment spinning pieces of junk on this site, there's a reason for this, you see I have had these on my personal vending route and they are an absolute obsolete piece of junk.  They are a PAIN in the dairyair to service, need I say more, yes I shall and I will.

1. They can be dangerous!

• The bearing that they spin on goes bad fast and the thing starts to WOBBLE like crazy and in many instances the nut holding the stand on comes loose and then it wobbles like freaking crazy becoming a complete embarrassment to you and the location and usually ending up with you being thrown on your tushy out the door.
• If you have a double decker meaning 8 compartment this situation is going to be even worse and in my professional opinion is dangerous from being top heavy even when brand new the very first day you place it.  I refused to buy an 8 compartment back in the 90's because to me it was obviously way way to top heavy.  Thank God I never bought any because the 4 compartment is pain to service, I'm sure an 8 compartment is an absolute freakin nightmare!!!!

   2.    They are a slow, pain, torture to service!

•  Removing each compartment is fairly easy, but getting things to align when reassembling is better left to Houdini, you have to twist, and force, scan, realign, push, pull, lean on, pray, curse, grind your teeth, and if you have any hair left pull it out and that's just to get the first one or two in, the third one take longer and the fourth one is absolutely crazy, but wait... once you have had a break and lunch and finally get it on and sweat is dripping off you from frustration and embarrassment you still have to ALIGN and  FORCE the lid on. 

   3.    They have PLASTIC Coin Mechanisms and I guarantee you they break VERY OFTEN!

Other than that the 4 or 8 spinner is a super de duper terrific machine and I would strongly recommend you run out and buy 100's of them! lol

See the machine at the top of this page, it's one of the absolute best and I promise I will give you the best price on one or as many of a package as you want!  I made my fortune on 1" gumballs and I have short, simple, and valuable advise for you, all free and priceless.
I still have 100 locations even after my success of Embassy Vending and love my route now that I have the right machines, please let me help keep you from making the same stupid mistakes that I did.  My route is great for the whole family and my kids have a blast helping me, it has brought us closer and been a rewarding success for nearly 15 years now!
