Yeah, when I was taking a break from trying to get it open I popped in some nickels and dimes and tested all the pulls. All worked. Once I got it opened it still worked. As far as does it vend a product I tried a few things here at the house but I couldnt really find anything on hand that fit the slots. I'll go buy some cookies, crackers and peanuts tomorrow that look like they will work and start testing. What do you put in yours?
But after playing with the thing I don't see why it wont work. The little tray slides out and drops when you pull the knob. I did notice an adjustable spacer for each slot that I assumes was for you to set the correct thickness so that it only grabs one package at a time.
The only issue I've had since getting the top off was my son put a quarter in it and the return coin slot is too small for quarters and I need to dig it out tomorrow
