Kaysville, UT (PRWEB) January 17, 2007 - 1.800.VENDING, a leading vending machine manufacturer who revolutionized the vending machine industry with their newly designed vending machines, educates the public on the three grades of quality found in vending machines. Grade A quality vending machines are unique in the U.S., and most vending machine companies typically rely on Grade B or Grade C machines.All-metal vending machines (Grade B) provide strength and stability, but also suffer from several design flaws. Outside paint is prone to scratching, chipping and rust, while inside paint corrodes and can lead to product contamination. Warm temperatures can also melt candy inside the machines.
All-plastic vending machines (Grade C) lack the durability of Grade B machines and suffer frequent breakdowns. This is especially true for the plastic coin mechanisms, which see a lot of wear and tear in any vending machine. Besides technical problems, they cannot handle 1" gumballs or toys, a large market in the vending industry. Grade C machines may also be rejected for high-end locations.
"All-metal vending machines (Grade B) and all-plastic vending machines (Grade C) are both a bad idea," said Mike Burnett, co-founder of 1.800.VENDING. "What you need is a combination of the strongest metal in parts that you need it and the highest quality plastics in areas that you want it (shatterproof polycarbonate).

"What you need is a combination of the strongest metal in parts that you need it (strength & stability) and the highest quality plastics in areas that you want it (shatterproof polycarbonate).
Grade A vending machines solve the problems of Grade C and C machines by incorporating both high-quality plastic and metal components. "You don't want your product surrounded by metal and you certainly don't want your coin mechanisms, lids and money compartment doors made of a 'Delrin' plastic," said Burnett.
1.800.VENDING is the only company offering Grade A vending machine in the United States. The owners spent hours researched existing vending machines on the market to create their Grade A machines.
"As we tore apart the other machines on the market, I was appalled at what other companies are selling," said Jeff Marsh, the other co-founder of 1.800.VENDING, "It was immediately apparent that their entire focus was on profit margin for their company with no thought to how well their machine would work or how long it would last."
"Malfunctioning machines is the number one reason people fail in vending," said Marsh. According to Marsh, many vending machines fail within a year. This can cause huge losses for owners who lose their vending locations when their machines break. "Vending works as long as the machine works. It's that simple," said Marsh.
