Definitely not what you would expect for the price...

I knew that it wasn't going to hold a lot of cans (10 max, to be exact) or would be particularly large (a plus for some consumers). The can capacity can be overlooked because I like don't see anyone other than caffeine fiends needing more space for cola storage, plus if you really wanted that type of capacity, why wouldn't you get a regular mini-fridge? It is a miniature sized vending unit, so of course it won't be very large, and I like that. My room doesn't have ample space, and this fits well on my end table. While in operation, the machine is near silent. It has a very quiet, very ambient volume while in operation. The only thing that irks me is the price that I paid for the vending machine. It's like a toy, it's not a real vending process, and I wasn't expecting it to be. Though it is still fun to be able to press a button and have your soda drop down into a depository, it feels kinda cheap the way it is set up into this machine. And the materials used to make the machine are cheaper. I was expecting a weaker type of metal alloy, but instead they have gone with strong plastic. Not my first choice, but it does alright with the rest of the overall look and feel of this product. My other complaint is that this machine does COOL the cans, but doesn't actually get them COLD, the way I wanted them to be. I expected this though since the description states that it will keep cans 29 degrees below the ambient temperature. One star off for the price and the lack of can being able to get a satisfactory coldness.
