Questions & Answers

How long will it take for any of the screws inside the top to rust?

My unit has been in use for two years, and I've made a lot of popcorn, which causes steam to build up inside. There is no sign of corrosion on the screws or plates.

Does the warranty on the kettle differ from that of the coffee maker, if so, how long is the warranty?

The manufacturer offers a 3-year warranty on this product. Click here to learn more. Visit the website. It's manufactured fun. Please refer to Paragon's website for information about models and warranties.

How does steam and heat affect your walls and ceiling? Is your ceiling greasy and discolored?

I find that it emits a surprising amount of steam and smoke. Even though I am not burning the popcorn, I act as though I am. It seemed that steam was emanating from the equipment somewhere and would stop as soon as it was released, but the steam kept coming. Smoke and steam continued to appear, so I wondered if there may be plastic protective covering tape on the machine that I forgot to remove and it is melting and burning when I am running There doesn't seem to be anything on the subject

The popper has been in our possession for a few days, and every batch except the first has produced We're not doing it right, so what can we do? Should we leave some of the doors open?

This popper has been with us since April, and we have never had any problems. It is advisable to close both doors, including the fold out guard under the door. If you pop your popcorn in a kettle, make sure to heat it for about 10 minutes and to turn it off when it has finished.

Exceptional machine
5/5

I have been a popcorn aficionado for the past 12 years and had a great machine. My hopes for the $200 machine didn't pan out and I bought a new one off Amazon that seemed It wasn't the case like that. The money was returned to Amazon thanks to the company. Based on my research, I found that Paragon is a great company that's been around for a long time, is known for their quality, and is located in Yes, this machine is sturdy and worth the price! (My heart belongs to the Midwest!) Do not waste your money on a cheap machine. Invest in a quality machine. I will not let you down. Choosing to do this is a great decision! A new update is available as of Now over a year has passed and this machine is still in good shape. A ten-pack is in my shopping cart. Six ounces of Vogel All-You-Can-Eat From GFS, there is a combo pack (24 in a case) that comes with coconut oil solid and seasoning. With no difficulty, the popper takes care of it. I'm truly amazed at its ability to pop kernels with little to no waste. As well as being easy to clean, it's also relatively inexpensive. I am always complimented by visitors and guests that I have the best popcorn in the world! It is my hope that I will be able to continue using this flawlessly for years to come.

I am satisfied with the service
5/5

A lot of fun and events are in store for the family. It's been about a month since we began experiencing this. This is commercial quality all the way I was concerned about how easy it would be to wipe down between uses or to clean thoroughly to get a spotless finish (this turns out to be much We found that this design worked with our bar and the measurements were accurate. If there are just a few of us, I like to use 4oz bags, but 8oz bags work better for larger groups (and I can do multiple pops if necessary). Having popcorn in the house is a favorite activity for the kids. Popcorn is a better treat than most others as far as treats are concerned. Everything on the deck stays warm and fresh with the heating system. The non-profit sector It is easy to clean a stick kettle. For dark rooms, the tinted glass on this model is excellent for dimming the interior light, which makes it suitable for movie nights. Alternatively, one can unscrew the heater support to enable the popper to stay dark when the warming deck is on, but we don't think this is The main options for commercial use are Paragon and Gold Medal if you want to take it beyond Great Northern, which is sold heavily on Amazon, Costco, or Sam's Club. Those who have tried the popcorn have been totally wowed and ate it up. The most recent time we went to the movie theater we realized "ours" was indeed better, even though it was likely just the fresh pop taste versus sitting for a while. Nevertheless, it was interesting to note that we all came away with the same impression!.

5/5

The thing I'm looking at is great! Over the course of about eight years, I used the Roosevelt Popcorn Machine from Great Northern. In spite of the decent machine and ability to service me well, it left so many unpopped kernals every time. From the very first fire up I could tell mostly all the kernals were popping just by listening to the sound of the Popcorn lovers would have a field day hearing that noise. When I opened up the old maid tray, there were only four or five kernels left. I love how it tastes, I recommend this machine because it is a quality item that doesn't cost a lot, but is a bit pricey. You might want to skip the less expensive poppers if you pop a lot of popcorn and save up for this instead.

As a result, it has high-quality construction and popcorn
5/5

It is not cheap, but it's a very nice unit that will make your home theater feel like a real movie Popcorn is quick to cook and easy to use. It is constructed with the highest quality materials and it is sure to last a lifetime. I would say it's long enough for me to enjoy it at least D. )

I have used it several dozen times you'll be surprised at the ease of cleanup. It has all glass sides with the exception of the front two doors which are made of plexiglass (I assume to protect against accidental breaking if you open the doors). The remainder of the unit is made entirely of In addition to the warming light, the unit has a warming floor, so you get the most out of your popcorn machine.

If you want the best popcorn machine, this is it. Neither the red nor the blue units will make the difference, so either one will do. As for the black furniture in the living room, I find it less obtrusive than red. If your home theater is dedicated, the red may be more appropriate.

We are very pleased with the quality and it During a party, we borrowed the exact same model from my brother
5/5

Due to the amount of entertaining we do, we decided we needed one ourselves. It has been a great year. Coconut oil and white popcorn get used with half a stick of butter (2 oz) per kettle of popcorn and Morton popcorn salt. I will also pop some while visitors are arriving to enhance our social time, or after a meal to enjoy during Karaoke or games. There is a lot of interest in this. It's easy to clean as guests lick it, just kidding, but it is easy to clean. I don't really have to worry about popping the popcorn too much too soon because the popper has a heated floor and heat lamp, so it still tastes fresh immediately after popping. The entire thing can be removed as easily as possible. There is a laser cut floor (perfectly) and it is easy to remove. We just wipe it down with a paper towel when we are done, although the kettle can be unplugged and removed with the pull of a pin as well. Despite the fact that it has a drawer for old maids, it's so striking that there aren't too many of them. A plastic scoop that would be more at home in a sandbox comes with it. Occasionally, we scoop up the corn with the edge of these paper boats. We bought an aluminum scoop, like they use for french fries, but sometimes just use the edge of the boat Serving up scoop after scoop after scoop. These sofas are made in an Iowa family owned company, which is nice to know. This is Jim,.
