Does anyone have a recommendation for a good soap vending machine. I have an unattended mat and need one that can stand up to some abuse and that any idiot can operate. I'm thinking a 3 slot with seperate coin slides.
Thanks for your help.

Vendrite has a soap vendor with four slots and four coin slides. There cabinet is pretty stout. They also offer an optional hasp that I really like.

I have the Vendrite 360 in my unattended mat. I like it because it has 12 columns, 360 items, multiprice capability and easy to operate. It comes with a coinco 9302gx coin acceptor, but I hooked mine up to my card system.
I only need to check the inventory and top it off once a week.

You may want to consider more than just a 3 col. I've got an 8 and I will add annother 4 or 6 col. machine. You need at least two det. dryer sheets, bleach (dry and liq), Oxiclean sells good for me, and bags.
I sell out of Tide, Bounce and Oxi in about 4 days so I am adding annother machine so I can go more than a week without restocking.
My 8 col. Vendrite, it's pretty dummy proof but sometimes the boxes don't come out of the chute with enough force to pop out. They are there, just not sticking out.
I clean the chute and everything the manufacturer says but still about once a week I get a refund request saying they did not get their product. often I find it just inside the chute.
not perfect, but probably the best simple vender out there.
this machine has lots of flexibility, each col. has it's own slide and can be priced differently.
Still... as usual Duane has the coolest toys

Does Gold Metal still make a soap vendor? I have one in my store and like it because you can see the product thru a window. There's never a question whether or not a column is empty.
Does anyone have a used Vendrite soap vending machine that has been used with an Easy Card system? If so, please shoot me an email to josh@squeakyclean.us. Thanks!

Trek,
I use my card system (CCI) on the vendrite 360. The Easycard system can also be adapted to work on the vendrite 360, you will need to contact Easycard. If you have any questions, please let me know.
Thanks,
Duane.
