That's true, but the regulations might require it to be 24 inches for safety reasons.

Hmm, I wonder if the distance changes if the vending machine is stocked with donuts instead of the usual suspects. Asking for a friend, of course.

Donuts or not, the minimum distance is still 12 inches.

But wouldn't it be easier to access the vending machine if it's closer at 18 inches?

12 inches? That's barely enough space for a snack machine, let alone a full-sized vending unit. I'm going with the 24-inch option to be safe.

I think 24 inches is the safer choice for sure.

I thought the answer was 18 inches, but the minimum distance seems a bit further than that. Gotta love these tricky building codes!
