Here is a review of several websites that have a nice selection of popcorn makers. I tried to find the best websites that had a wide variety of popcorn machines complemented by a nice look to them. Here is what I came up with.

A big player of commercial theater popcorn machines was Standard Concession Supply. They are everywhere. They actually do not specialize in popcorn makers though it is in fact a large percentage of their website. You can find anything concession here including cotton candy machines, snow cone machines, hot dog machines, and other “food cart” items for people to set up stands such as fairs or “carnival type” attractions. What I did realize is that popcorn is their hottest selling item because they devote a little more than half their website to that area and the other half to all the other concessions and holiday themed items.  Overall I would say that they have a semi decent selection of popcorn machines.  They are really nothing special and did not stand out too much but not bad either.  I did not find the website to be too informative and pleasing to the eye but it gets the job done.

Another website of interest would be Popcorn Machine Shop.  I was impressed with this site more than the other one.  It seemed more original and specialized in the “popcorn lovers” niche.  The site is nice and there are tons of cool pictures of various popcorn makers including antique and theater style machines.  What I really like about this website  is that while the former website is more geared towards business applications this site has a variety of items that can be added to people’s home.  They have a wide selection of nostalgia retro hot air popcorn poppers that your average person can buy for their homes for under $100.  They have a nice array of these.  If you want bigger ones they have those as well. Also available are huge choices of popcorn supplies and accessories that you can pick from.  They have portion packs, popcorn bags, butter toppings and warmers, bulk popcorn, and cleaning kits.

In all these two websites are good but different in that they target two different type of potential popcorn enthusiasts or buyers.  The first one targets commercial customers while the latter one targets residential and some commercial customers.

I did find a third website that was very impressive in the “popcorn niche”.  Its very well made and is very cool to look at.  It does not specialize in popcorn poppers but home personal home theaters.  Its an awesome website and popcorn machines are just one of the many items they sell.  They actually do have a large supply and variety of them but its just one item out of what looks like 100s pertaining to setting up your home cinema.  Very cool site, took me a while to find it, but worth checking out nevertheless.  They do have a bunch of items there so its easy to get confused and lost there so you really have to look closely at some items.

If you are in the process of setting up your personal home theater at your house I would highly reccommend buying a popcorn machine online.  No home movie theater room will be totally complete without one.  And the great thing about yours is that unlike when you go to AMC or Regal Movie theaters you will not have to pay $5.50 for a large popcorn….
