I've been cautioned by an experienced key cutter that the blanks used in these machines are weak and can break off in locks. Caveat emptor.
i can see that, its definitely 'lighter' than the ones i have from years ago, and i have to jimmy the key to have it sit right and open the door. that being said, still going to get a free key as free is for me.
I stopped by Walmart because they are one of the few stores that carry a cookie brand I like. I got through the door, and saw the 30+ people waiting in line. I did a 180, and left. Walmart is just a pit, and a free key is not enough to get me to go back.
Loews on the other hand, I might consider if gas was not $5/gal.

As an engineer who has done key cutting on my own machine for rental properties, I would say your key cutter is confusing anecdotal evidence with reality.

I've had great luck with the keys in these machines. I can't remember how old my keys are, but they must be at least 7 years old and they still feel solid. Maybe they'v e changed their blanks since I've had mine cut a long time ago.
