Which Kit Should You Choose?
Choose the 25.7cm Mini Kit if:
You need a compact, countertop-friendly machine for home use, a small retail display, or a low-footprint arcade setup. The LCD mainboard and built-in prize sensor make it the most feature-rich option for its size.
Choose the 53cm Mid-Size Kit if:
You want a commercial-grade machine with stainless steel durability, dual coin acceptors, and full lighting — without the full footprint of a 71cm floor unit. Ideal for mall kiosks, mid-size arcades, and operators who want a step up from mini.
Choose the 71cm Full-Size Kit if:
You're building a full commercial claw machine for an arcade, entertainment center, or venue. The 71cm gantry is available in both standard steel and stainless steel — choose based on your environment and budget.
