I'm hoping the $25k is more than just the arm and is more for the entire retail ready unit as displayed on their website... which is not bad value

Even at 30k for the coffee machines and 25k for the arm plus 5k for the enclose. 60k investment for $300/hr. Like $200 margin running even 12 hours a day. That's over 800k a year in the right location.

Add the cost of coffee, water (usually filtered/depurated), electric power, sugar, washing, ...
... and good luck to find a location that has customers needing 120 coffees/hout for 12 h each day of the year.
