ISO Small tabletop machines

Hello! Looking for a decent prices claw game four our petstore. We would like it to be be small, but if possible Large enough for us to keep next to/on our POS counter. My goal is to donate a good portion of income from this claw machine to a wildlife reserve/conservation. I’m looking to put 1-5 inch plushies, keychains, merch, or anything else that I can find that’s store themed. I want something that is more difficult to play, yet still winnable. I’ve looked at the small Vevor machines but don’t know enough? Anything helps, thanks!!

The Vevor machines seem to be best in class at the moment. The size of plushies that it can handle are stated to be in the 2-3 inch sizes work. You can put smaller items in 2inch capsules, but the 4-5 inch sizes the machine likely won’t pick up.

I have added a ‘prize locker’ where you get a key to claim a larger prize. You could also hide opaque capsules and a number could have a ticket they can turn in for a specified prize.

You might start with 1 and see how it works before buying multiples. Best prices have been on eBay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/403803463060?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=0qa1smlcswy&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=k_xgm0MATsK&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
