American Gumball Company - Metal 11-Inch Retro Style Red Gumball Machine, Made For 0.62 Inch Gumballs, Candy or Nuts, Accepts Any US Coin

I bought this for my niece’s 7th birthday. She absolutely loves it, even several months later. It was sturdy, seems well made, & looks amazing. It has held up to her using it multiple times a day since giving it to her 4 months ago. Excellent gift!

I recently had the pleasure of adding this exquisite antique ball machine to my collection, and it has quickly become the centerpiece of my living room. Standing at a compact yet noticeable 12 inches tall, this gem combines glass and metal in a harmonious dance that captures the essence of vintage aesthetics. The bright red color is what catches your eyes first - a vivid, radiant hue reminiscent of the iconic gumball machines that adorned every reputable barbershop back in the golden days. It’s not just a color but an experience, evoking waves of nostalgia and transporting you back to simpler times when getting a colorful gumball was the highlight of any child’s day. Every detail is meticulously crafted; from its sturdy metal body and cap, painted in that classic red, to its crystal clear glass globe filled with colorful balls, each element tells a story. The diecast metal construction ensures durability, while the real glass globe adds an authentic touch. But let’s talk functionality! This delightful machine holds and dispenses a generous 13 ounces of small gumballs or candy. And here’s the fun part: it accepts pennies, nickels, dimes, or quarters for a delightful treat. But wait, there’s more! You can even remove the coin dispensing part, allowing you to simply spin the dial and enjoy a sweet reward without any charge. If you’re looking for something that isn’t just an antique but also a piece of history, imbued with memories and crafted with care - look no further. This antique ball machine isn’t just an item; it’s an experience waiting to unfold. 🍬

Has worked just fine for over a year with no issues. It is glass so it can’t be knocked around, but used correctly I think it will last a long time. It has certainly outlasted the gum ball's we put in it last year.

I am giving it a 4/5 because it did not come in a box but rather someone slapped a shipping label on the outside of the product box and sent it. Thankfully it was not damaged. The product worked as advertised.

My grandson is now 20 and still has this in his room at college. It is now 5 years old and he loves how it is a conversation piece. The value was good and so is the freshness.

Nice gift bff

my favorite novelty item. daughter loves it.

This is advertised as 'die cast metal' but it has a cheap plastic bottom plate and plastic screw to remove the coins, which is not very robust. It's partially damaged after trying to remove the coin cap once.
