John N. Hansen Eagle Slot Machine, Yellow

My elderly mother is bedridden now, and as a result she can no longer go to her favorite place: Pechanga Casino. We used to go there often, spending hours playing the slot machines. Even though her luck on them usually wasn't very good, she loved going there and playing anyway.For Christmas I thought I'd find a slot machine she could play in bed. She has a hospital-type bed table and I needed something that would fit on that. I looked at tons of slot machines on Amazon before deciding on this one.For one thing its dimensions, 15" x 4.5" x 10.5", were bigger than others I'd seen. Most were very small. I understand that they're really banks but, still, I didn't want a LITTLE one. Yet it's not too big--it fits easily on her bed table.Also, this actually pays out! Coins you've inserted spill out into the tray when you hit matching symbols.The sounds are authentic, like when you pull the arm and the wheels are spinning, and when you hit a jackpot the red light on top flashes and there are sound effects, too.The slot machine requires two AA batteries (not included), but they're only necessary for lighting up the red light. The machine itself is purely mechanical and needs no power source to operate.The old-fashioned arm is a nice touch. It reminds my mom of playing slot machines in the days before they were all electronic with buttons instead of an arm.My mom couldn't be happier--she's like a little kid enthralled with their favorite new toy they got for Christmas. She plays it day and night.

I bought this as a gift for my grandmother since she loves slots and can no longer go due to her health. Do not buy this. It is made of very cheap plastic and will most likely break within days. Plus it is super noisy and the coins fall out even when you are not playing with it, or using it as a bank. It is seriously not worth it.

Not a very intelligent device. But good for a few laughs.

I like that this machine no only has the eagle, liberty bell, and Uncle Sam, but also the traditional bars and cherries. A fun machine that is different from others.

The media could not be loaded. The slot machine looks nice....... I bought it as a gift for my husband for Christmas.. It makes a clunking noise when each wheel comes to a stop: not sure if that is suppose to happen. Does not sound right to me.. The sound when you hit the jackpot is not real loud but it is really cute. Arrived in a timely fashion...........definitely noisy.....

I gifted my mother in law this for Christmas and she absolutely loved it. She loves going to Atlantic City to play the slots and what better gift!!

I bought this for my Dad as a birthday gift. It broke the same day it was given to him. I didn't expect it to last forever, but I certainly didn't think it would brake the same day!Would not recommend this product!

This item is cheaply made & is made of plastic, not metal.
