  Basil and the team at AVS Vending are seriously good. I've ordered 10 vending machines with them and not only is the product good, but the service is great. Basil has been great to deal with, easy to get in touch and always responds fast. I would highly reccommend them if you are considering any vending machine options.

  If you are thinking about purchasing a vending machine for whatever reason or purpose, we can't recommend AVS enough.  We are a community group that wanted to use a vending machine to sell artwork.  AVS not only gave us the best quote but helped us out every step of the way on a project that was definitely not the norm!  We have recently launched our vending machine to huge success and we simply could not have done it without AVS.

  Clearly these bad reviews below have no idea what they are talking about and are not even customers of the business. These guys are great and have a vast range of spare parts available for machines, Peter is very helpful.
