Abstract of the Disclosure An all-purpose merchandiser for vending articles of merchandise, such as platters of food, desserts and the like, having a wide variety of shapes and sizes in which a generally circular merchandise carrier having a plurality of storage levels each of which is divided into a plurality of compartments is mounted for movement around a vertical axis to carry the compartments past a cabinet door window lying in a plane making an angle with the plane of the door and being substantially parallel to a plane tangential to the carrier and past a plurality of transparent access doors disposed for sliding movement in superposed relationship on the cabinet door in a second plane making an angle with the plane of the door and being substantially parallel to another plane tangential to the carrier. The window has a width substantially equal to the length of a chord which subtends an arc occupied by a plurality of first vertically aligned compartments while each door is of a length which is approximately equal to the chord subtended by the arc occupied by a second compartment adjacent to one of said first compartments. I position a vertically extending elongated source of illumination at a location adjacent to the linc of intersection of said planes and adjacent to the outboard edges of said planes. Preferably, I divide the compartments of selected ones of said level in two and step the carrier in a number of steps per revolution which is equal to twice the number of full size compartments while preventing a door corresponding to a full size compartment level from being opened when the carrier stops at a midpoint corresponding to a half compartment position. -?-
