crunchydog Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Does anyone on here vend 16.9 oz. Bottles in their dn 5591's, if so, how do they perform delivery wise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 You need to use bottles that are firm when warm, not soft when warm. Soft bottles will get softer as they cool and cause mis-vends. The regional Nestle waters, not Nestle branded though, all offer a 16.0 oz water that is ribbed for making them firmer when cold. If you can't find them then look for Aquafina or Dasani bottles that are firm. You can use a can spacer for 16.0 and 16.9 oz bottles so they are easy to set up.

orsd Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Up until a year or so back, Nestle had 5591's in pretty much every Costco around here loaded to the gills with the soft 16.9 Arrowhead waters. (Costco booted them when they put in their own Bevmax 4's with their house brand of water) Seemed to work pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you didn't know to look at the selection first like I did it would be a crap shoot whether the selection you chose was going to vend. If they used space to sales like they do on the Bev 4s now then you couldn't pick the non-jammed selection, you just hoped that the next one vended wasn't jammed.

crunchydog Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 Thanks for the input, I'm going to stay with 20 oz. For now. I am having a hard time finding waters that are not the flimsy eco plastic around here, even Dasani has went eco bottle here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's crazy is that coke sells $1 20 oz as well, but the case pricing is like 28 bucks/24 at the local Costco Business Center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
