Thoughts on a few brand new machines


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I landed a large account this week and looking to purchase new as the used market locally is very weak.

I just met with a distributor that has a line of nationals that looked great.what are your thoughts on the following machines:

Merchant 4 and merchant 6

Newest bev max glass front

Voche media coffee

Vendo 621 live front stickers

I would stay away from the Voche coffee machine for now.  I've seen one and it's new to the market.  There's no way to know what it's reliability will be until it's been out for a couple of years.  The machine may be imported as it has some Italian parts in it so that adds to the uncertain reliability.  I don't remember what I didn't like about it but I wasn't too impressed with the design, though it might end up being a good machine.  It's just too early to tell.

In the last 2 years I've purchased merchant 6, merchant media, and bevmax machines new from crane.  All have been placed in high volume accounts and I've been very satisfied with all of it.  I'm curious what prices you're getting quoted if you can share.  I'm in the NorthEast and always deal with the same one rep and i'm curious if I'm paying what others pay.

I have a few each Merchant 6's, Bev Maxes and Voche. All of them are in high volume locations and I don't have many issues. A few thoughts on the Voche are, the materials and construction of the interior components feels cheap and flimsy. Also it feels like I have to empty the waist pail more often than with other coffee machines, but I could be wrong.
