Mine is my Westinghouse 10 case master - WD10. Great extra fridge. visibility is great with the wing top doors. Love that machine. Has style, built like a rock, The motors look original! Cools great.

If I had room for my Victor bar C31 (and it was back from restoration) it might give the 10 case a run for the money but you have to love chest coolers for versitility.

I got my DP VMC 110 on the back porch for outdoor summer parties.
V-81A in the gameroom for indoor parties.
But the machine that is on ALL the time is my WB60-K6-D Select-O-Matic in the garage. Set up with a pushbutton free-vend and stocked with Diet Coke and 7Up cans, long neck beers, bottled water - something for everyone!

Beleive it or not my most useful machine, other than being useful at taking up space, is my garage machine! It's a little Vendo 56-7C Square Top that is set for 10 cents with a cup of dimes on top.  biggrin

Mine is a tossup between my USS-64 in the garage.... Beer, soda, water, more Beer... Its set on 10 cent with a buck on top of the machine...

My gameroom/basement has a V63 bottles machine that usually got beer, water, and Boylans sodas... This is on free vend just to make it easier at parties.

It does depend on the season for me though... in the summer, we spend more time upstairs, and the garage machine is used. In the colder times, we are downstairs, so the basement machine gets used.

My USS 64 is a great everyday machine.  I was lucky enough to find one in almost new condition (with very stylish woodgrain  Cool ) and it vends and cools perfectly.  Also, at .35 a pop at least the kids have to pay me back for some of the money I spend for pop!  drinking

My Most USED machine during the warm months is my Glasco 50 Slider on the back porch, Minus the rack, I fill it full of Beer/Pop/Water and Juice boxes and use it as a reach in cooler all Summer long.
inside, I use one of my Vendo 81's or my 56... Currently My 56 is full of Beer and "self Bottled" pop for the kids... chilling for my New Years Eve Party!!!

The USS-8-48 that's sitting in the basement, since that's where the media room is.  Set for 25c vend, always stocked with beer or soda, cans or bottles.  That machine is always an eye catcher for folks when they visit...One of these days a round-top will be found to replace it, but I'm pretty happy with it now.

I personally use my Wurlitzer Princess whenever I am in the basement doing anything, work or play.  Got to have the music!!

The most used machine by other people would have to be my United ball bowler.  Young or old, it's everybody's favorite, then the Williams baseball. 

Vending machines, it would have to be my Cavalier CS-96 followed by my Popperette and Little Nut Hut.  They are definately used more than my other vending machines.  All are in the basement.  I just set up two Stoners and I'll see how they get used tomorrow for my Christmas Eve party.


HAPPY HOLIDAYS TOO ALL OF YOU!! happydrinkers

I would have to say my Westinghouse WD-10 as well, at least until the evaporator fan went out on it!  As soon as I get it fixed, it will be back in business holding the beer/soda to relieve the kitchen fridge.  We used to keep the DP Selectivend S-48 constantly stocked with Dr. Pepper vended for a dime until it got a split in the freon line and leaked out.  I'm trying to find someone here locally that can fix/recharge it for me.  I could probably put a splice in the line, but I'm not sure about replacing the dryer or recharging it.  I really want to find a nice Ideal 35 or 55 to use in my office for drinks, I think it would be a hit here!
