Title: cavalier 72 Bottles / sizes
Post by: chris in Bama on February 03, 2018, 12:24:51 pm
Will a cavalier 72 vend the plastic 16.9 oz plastic bottles from the store?

I don't think that the 72 will be able to vend those bottles.

Plus plastic bottles in a pre-1060's machine is sacrilegious.

They work in my selectivend. Sometimes a little hard to grab due to the short neck.  But its a 60s square top.

lots of choices still in glass bottled soda... orcabeverage.com (the company I work for) makes tons of glass bottled soda
don't know your area but I'm sure it is out there... Glass bottled "Vintage" sodas seems to be everywhere. Cool to open
these older machines and see the metal capped bottles.
Sure they're a little more $ wise .. but isn't your machine worth it? 8)

I don't know if the bottle stack in a 72 is any different than a bottle stack in a Cavalier square top?  But if they are the same, then yes, it will vend.  I have a CS-80E and I know for sure that MOST of those 16.9/.5 liter plastic bottles will vend.
