YOBRO Retro Candy Vending Machine
✓ Product data checked October 23, 2026
This small red machine copies the look of an old coin-free vending dispenser. You fill it with candy or snacks under about 1.2 inches across, turn the knob clockwise and the gears drop a few pieces into a pull-out drawer. It stands around 10 inches tall and weighs about 1.2 pounds, so it fits on a desk, a kitchen counter or a shelf as a piece of retro decor. The back cover and drawer open for washing. As a gift it turns a coworker's snack stash into a small ritual, for around $22. The listing warns it is not for children under 12.
