    Description

    I'm only the second owner of this soda machine... First question you’ll have is, does it work? The answer is—yes and no. I’ve had this in storage for thirty years and it was fully functional when I put it away. These days, everything appears to be working except the refrigeration portion. The compressor seems fine, so I’m assuming that it needs a charge (the older R-12 Freon). Everything else seems to be in fine working order. The unit was designed to work under harsh, outdoor conditions and is built like a tank. Everything about it is heavy-duty. It’s definitely a great piece of Americana.
    All original; never painted or needing any service in the past.
    All the electromagnets work; the lights, the change mechanism, are all good.
    Unit holds 5 varieties of standard 12 oz cans (a case for each, if I remember correctly).
    Coin mechanism is adjustable: 10¢ / 15¢ / 20¢.
    Includes the original labels for the Canada Dry flavors at the time.
    Runs on household current; 110 VAC; 7 amps (same as a regular refrigerator or a small window A/C).
    The unit measures 30” x 60” x 24” (approximately).
    Weight is estimated at 300 lbs.
    Local pick-up only. It's fine if you want to arrange for your own shipping; I can help facilitate but cannot do any crating or any prep work.
