Review: The best popcorn machine for the money! - So, do you enjoy popcorn? Do you love the smell when you walk into a movie theater? Do you love the taste of movie theater popcorn? Well, you get all of that and more with this machine. This is hands down the best popcorn machine I have ever used and I have never had popcorn that tastes this good in a home environment. My home theater room smells like a movie theater and I cannot tell the difference in taste! No one else can either. This machine works fantastic, makes perfect-tasting popcorn, and cleans up easily. It is super high quality and I expect many many years of use. We have tried different brands of popcorn but the best way we found for the best tasting "movie theater" experience is using popcorn kits. We buy "GreatNorthern" popcorn kits, 10oz bags and it is the best tasting popcorn period. https://www.desertcart.com/gp/product/B075KM235K/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The machine comes with a very handy scoop. It is kinda cheap looking so I bought a pro metal scoop but I must admit, I use the plastic one the most. I prefer this popcorn just has it comes out of the machine, the perfect amount of salt and butter already in it from the kit. But for those that just have to have extra butter (movie theater style) then my wife and daughter love Snappy Butter Burst. https://www.desertcart.com/gp/product/B00AXK9ROC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I will admit it does taste just like the theater but I was never an extra butter guy myself. Now this is a butter-flavored oil just like the theater and it is NOT real butter. Tastes super though! I also use this pump with it, and it works perfect. https://www.desertcart.com/gp/product/B006R9DO1U/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Do yourself a favor and buy this machine! Thank me later!! Review: Quality construction, quality popcorn as a result - It's not cheap but it's a beautiful unit that will make your home theater feel like a real theater. Cooks popcorn quick and easily. The construction is second to none and I think it will last forever. Well long enough for me to enjoy it at least :) I've used it several dozen times already and found clean up super easy. All sides are glass except for the front two doors which are plexiglass (I assume to protect against accidental breakage if you open the doors into something). All of the rest of the unit is stainless steel. The built in warming light AND warming floor keep the popcorn warm as you'd expect. If you are looking for the best in a popcorn machine this is the unit. The red unit has the same construction so either should do the trick. I find the black less obtrusive in the living room than the red would be. For a dedicated home theater you may prefer the red. ## Features - A high-output, side-hinged, hard-coat anodized aluminum kettle for powerful performance that is a snap to operate and to clean, 1420 Watts, 15 amp NEMA 5-15p, produces 147 one-ounce servings per hour - Sturdy cabinet construction that withstands heavy commercial use and maintains attractive appearance with smoked gray tinted glass - Presentation lamp which creates an attractive display setting - Stainless steel food zone and tempered glass panels for sanitary food environment and easy cleaning - One year warranty; Tested to NSF/ANSI Standard 4 by ETL; UL 197, CSA 22.2 NO. 109, CE - Care instructions: hand wash - Sport type: lawn games ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000TGID6S | | Best Sellers Rank | #228,632 in Kitchen & Dining ( See Top 100 in Kitchen & Dining ) #179 in Popcorn Poppers | | Brand | Paragon | | Brand Name | Paragon | | Capacity | 8 ounces | | Color | Black and Chrome | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 174 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00768528108225 | | Included Components | Popcorn scoop, Popper | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 14"L x 20"W x 29"H | | Item Type Name | Contempo Pop 8 Ounce Popcorn Machine | | Manufacturer | Paragon | | Material | Alloy Steel | | Model Number | 1108220 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | 1108220 | | Product Dimensions | 14"L x 20"W x 29"H | | Special Feature | Manual | | Special Features | Manual | | UPC | 768528108225 | | Warranty Description | One year warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Paragon - **Capacity:** 8 ounces - **Color:** Black and Chrome - **Material:** Alloy Steel - **Special Feature:** Manual ## Images ![Contempo Pop 8 Ounce Popcorn Machine for Professional Concessionaires Requiring Commercial Quality High Output Popcorn Equipment, Black and Chrome - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71yJjLV0TXL.jpg) ![Contempo Pop 8 Ounce Popcorn Machine for Professional Concessionaires Requiring Commercial Quality High Output Popcorn Equipment, Black and Chrome - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61qvOOZOnVL.jpg) ![Contempo Pop 8 Ounce Popcorn Machine for Professional Concessionaires Requiring Commercial Quality High Output Popcorn Equipment, Black and Chrome - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61FZqJlKmgL.jpg) ![Contempo Pop 8 Ounce Popcorn Machine for Professional Concessionaires Requiring Commercial Quality High Output Popcorn Equipment, Black and Chrome - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61VtQhZLUFL.jpg) ![Contempo Pop 8 Ounce Popcorn Machine for Professional Concessionaires Requiring Commercial Quality High Output Popcorn Equipment, Black and Chrome - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61tR8Dlb5zL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will the inside top or any of the Screws Rust? Bob** A: I have had mine for two full years, made much popcorn, which creates steam in the unit. No screws or plates show any sign of corrosion. **Q: does the warranty have a different time span for the kettle, and if yes how much?** A: 3 year warranty on this product. See: www.manufacturedfun.com for Paragon models and warranty coverages. **Q: From the steam and heat does this get your walls and ceiling discolored or greasy?** A: it does put out steam and smoke surprisingly....as if I was burning the popcorn even though I am not. I thought the steam was moisture that was coming out of the equipment somewhere that would stop after a few times, but it didn't. When the smoke and steam continued it got me thinking and wondering if there was a pieces of plastic protective covering tape that I have not removed that is melted somewhere on the machine and it is burning when I run it...I cannot seem to find anything though **Q: We have had this popper for a few days and every batch but the first one has made chewy popcorn. What are we doing wrong? We leave one door open etc** A: This is what we have done, and our popcorn is never chewy. Before adding anything to the kettle I allow it to run for 5 minutes (both switches on). I then add a 1/3 cup of Coconut or Peanut oil with 1 cup of popcorn, slide the cover down, and let it pop with both doors open most of the way. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best popcorn machine for the money! *by C***S on June 5, 2021* So, do you enjoy popcorn?

This works perfectly and makes great popcorn. The flip switches are crisp and the overall quality is superb. It fits perfectly on a small cabinet/countertop run that I had. Well worth the investment. ## Frequently Bought Together - Paragon Contempo Pop 8 Ounce Popcorn Machine for Professional Concessionaires Requiring Commercial Quality High Output Popcorn Equipment, Black and Chrome - 8oz Popcorn Machine Popcorn Packets - All-in-One Movie Theater Style Popcorn Kernels, Salt, and Oil Packs by Great Northern Popcorn (24 Case) - Benchmark 42030 Aluminum Speed Scoop,Silver,Large --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sc/products/7309475-contempo-pop-8-ounce-popcorn-machine-for-professional-concessionaires-requiring](https://www.desertcart.sc/products/7309475-contempo-pop-8-ounce-popcorn-machine-for-professional-concessionaires-requiring) --- *Product available on Desertcart Seychelles* *Store origin: SC* *Last updated: 2026-11-03*
