BryanH Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I just lost a location today because of a machine misvending i have been there once before and worked on it then tested it before leaving. But called me to take it, after a repeat 1-2 weeks later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMD Snacks Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 What type of machine? But regardless, no is my answer, GB are hands down my most reliable vends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuikVend Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I agree, it will depend on if you're machine is one of the reliable brands and is setup correctly. If both of those are the case, you shouldn't have much of a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMD Snacks Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I can't speak for that machine, since I don't have any, but I can see a gumball not vending if the teeth of the coin mech and gumball wheel aren't engaging properly. Otherwise, GB for me don't stick or fail to fall into the holes of the gumball wheel. And if they do that, and it turns, i'm not sure where a misvend could be. Though it also depends on the size of your gumball wheel and the size of your gum, I'm just assuming they're all normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuikVend Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 If the candy wheel and chute are aligned properly, it could cause a mis-vend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musser Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Do you have the right wheel? Gumball wheels and candy wheels are different, as are the brush offs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titandist Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Don't know much about those machines but if you are planning on staying in the bulk vending business for any length of time only buy NW, Oak or Beaver, stay away from all other machines. I have never had a misvend with a Oak or NW using the proper wheel. The only machines that add value to your route are NW, Oak or Beaver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GumballDragon Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Ive had the machine before, it was the first gumball machine I purchased. There was mis-vend for me in the beginning, and couldn't understand why, but I finally realized I had a candy wheel instead of the gumball wheel. It was a rookie mistake, but fortunately I caught it within the first 2-3 days it went live. The problem is, when you order on the website, it immediately defaults to 'candy wheel', even if you select gumball machine. Thats a huge problem, because if you don't know any better (like me), its easy to get a gumball machine ordered with a candy wheel installed. I immediately replaced those wheels with gumball wheels, and its been vending 100% since. No problem. Its a great machine, and the business owners love it.
