Top Reasons to Buy North Bend Kettle Corn Equipment

1. Our kettle corn popper and sifting bin are completely NSF certified. The NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) is a quality assurance agency that approves equipment to be safe because it meets certain standards of design, operation, and materials of construction. Many health codes across the country require this certification on food equipment used to prepare food served to the public (read real health code examples on our Q & A page). This certification guarantees you'll be able to use our equipment in any state, city or county across the US. We're helping you stay ahead of the "inspectors with checklists" and guarantee you'll be able to pass health inspections anywhere. Why take the chance of buying equipment that is not NSF certified? Buy smart.
2. Our machine has a CSA and UL listed pilot system - complete with an advanced flow interrupter safety valve & thermocouple. Why a pilot system?
   • Don't rely on the misfires & breakable parts of spark ignition systems. We know because we used to use spark igniters...they're cheap and work great for a while but simply aren't built for the constant stress of kettle corn popping.
   • Don't risk being turned down by Fire Marshall inspections because your unit does not have a standing pilot with thermocouple. (Our county fair is the second largest in the US - no spark ignition systems allowed.)
   • The constant pilot flame over burner makes start-up and shut-down as easy as it gets.
   For more about pilot systems, see our Q & A page.
3. Completely enclosed "oven" design. Keep the heat where you need it - cook your popcorn, not yourself! Using an open frame design or a 3-sided "wind-guard" design allows essential heat to escape. Open models also leave your burner more exposed, posing a safety hazard. In addition, they'll become very uncomfortable to operate because of the intense heat that's escaping. For more about our "oven" design, see our Q & A page.
4. Large kettle capacity.When you've got a line of hungry, paying customers, you need to be able to meet the damand!
5. Free shipping anywhere in the continental US and Canada! Our policy has always been "no hidden charges." The prices you see listed are always your final price.
6. Customer service - we're a Christian, family owned company and believe in the golden rule of "doing to others as we would have them do to us." We'll do our best to answer your e-mails in hours, not days - and the same with phone calls. Ask as many questions as you like before and after purchasing equipment - our time is your time.
