 Old-Fashioned Gumball BankDec 27, 2009
By Loveguitar
Santa left this gumball bank under the tree for my 6 year old daughter who is crazy about gumballs and gumball machines and she was very happy to find it. When I first took it out of the box I surprised that it was smaller than I expected, but it's still big enough. I bought a 20 ounce container of sugarless gumballs and it filled the gumball bank about halfway up. I used a nickle to test the coin-turn knob mechanism and found that the gumballs jammed about 2 out of every 5 tries. The gumball machine can be adjusted to allow only one or several gumballs to drop at each turn and I adjusted it so that 2 would drop since these gumballs are pretty small. It seemed to work o.k. after that.
The only problem with it and the reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that the knob is too hard for my daughter to turn all the way by herself. I have to turn it the rest of the way for her. The bank aspect is great, it holds a lot of coins, it's easy to get the money out once the gumballs are all gone, it's easy to re-fill with gumballs, and the directions say you can fill it up with other candies besides just gumballs though we haven't tried anything else. You can adjust this bank to give gumballs without having to insert a coin (any size coin seems to work fine) but we want her to save some money so she has to use a coin to get gumballs. The head is made out of what seems to be fairly durable glass (not plastic) and the base is all metal painted fire-truck red. I will probably add a drop or two of oil to the knob mechanism since it seems to grind a bit when being turned. It's not what a millionaire would buy for their kid, but it's cute and colorful, and it works alright - just hard for a kid to turn the knob.

I ordered the medium gumball machine and gumballs for my 6 year old grandaughter for Christmas. It arrived damaged. I emailed the shipper (Candy Machines) about the damage (glass top was broken). They shipped a new one the day they received my email. The replacement arrived in 4 days. Their prompt response to my problem was great and the sign of a good company to do business with. My grandaughter is thrilled and so am I! My thanks to [...] and their Amazon representative. CF

Fun Gumball BanksAug 14, 2009
By Harry Ganer

They have 3 different sizes of these so I bought one of each size for each of my kids. Obviously the older one get the larger size and my little one got the smaller bank.
My middle son has to eat only sugar free gum so I got him a package from these people and my other son and daughter split one of their tubs of the smaller sized gum.
Good people to deal with, talked to them on the phone and were very helpful. Yes -- I would recommend them.

M&M bank!Jan 23, 2012
By Rian
My son wanted a M&M bank for Christmas. The actual m&M banks seamed to be fragile plastic for a 4 year old. This one is great!! We keep it up on the counter and he needs to put money in before he gets any! We too enjoy a little treat everyday!
