Hi,
Not quite washroom but I think this is the most suitable category.
I currently only deal with Beaver sweet machines however I am always looking to expand, I came across these machines a few days ago and the guy I spoke to has given me a great offer as he is trying to get rid of them due to retirement.
I looked a bit more into them earlier, they are from Spain, technology wise they are fantastic and finding sites would be easy. Is this something that the public would use though? I would be placing them in local pubs.
What are your thoughts on these? Should I go for them?

I would think you will get a great return for the first month when people are testing them and the drinkers are playing around. Once they get bored of the gimmick you would be visiting empty machines.
I might be wrong, but I wouldnt try them.

Hi Andy,
That's a great point actually. I didn't think of that.
Cheers

Also as a landlord (if I was) not sure I would want them in my pub discouraging the beer swillers.
Also they have to be calibrated on a regular basis, who does that and what are the costs?
Oh and what happens if someone blows under but then gets arrested, I appreciate you have a disclaimer but all credibility then goes out of the window along with any sales

Calibration doesn't cost too much, it is done by an electrician.
Your points actually have put me off the idea now, there is a disclaimer stating that the machine is just advice however I don't want to be responsible for making someone think they are safe to drive when they are not.
Thanks for your input, I think I shall stick to the sweets!
