Sample Dome 16" Floor-Stand

A: A 16-inch display area instead of 12, so more product on show and fewer refills. The mechanism is identical. Same materials, same assembly, same adjustable height to roughly 38 inches, same single ice pack. Only the display scales up. The real gain is visibility. A larger dome reads from further down an aisle, which is exactly what a sampling display is competing for.

A: When floor space is tight, or when you sample one small item at low volume. A larger base needs more clearance, and an oversized display holding a thin layer of product looks worse than a smaller one that is full. Match the format to what you actually put out. For narrow aisles or crowded entrances, the 12-inch is the easier fit.

A: It ships with one reusable ice pack, the same as the 12-inch floor stand. The pack stays frozen up to six hours, and that is the pack, not the food. A larger display holds more product and usually gets opened more often, so in practice a 16-inch unit works harder on the same cooling. Plan against six hours as a ceiling, keep a spare frozen, and set discard times to your local food safety requirements. The 16-inch Deluxe is the model that includes two packs.

A: Yes, the pole adjusts below its maximum of roughly 38 inches. Set it before the shift. Adjusting a loaded 16-inch display means clearing it first, and there is more to clear than on the smaller unit.

A: No. Those are Deluxe features. This model includes the dome, tray, ice bowl, ice pack, adjustable pole, base, rubber plug and sign holder. Napkins and trash are handled by whatever stands next to it. A napkin holder can be added separately if you prefer not to move up to the Deluxe.

A: The pole threads into a weighted round metal base, a rigid joint rather than a friction fit. That connection carries the extra weight of a larger loaded dome. Position it off the natural walking line anyway, because a taller display with more mass on top is less forgiving of a knock.

A: No. The dome snaps onto the ice bowl, the pole friction fits into the bowl and threads into the base. One person can build or break it down, which matters for a unit this size because it will get moved.

A: A clear acrylic dome over a food-safe ABS ice bowl, on a metal pole and base. Wipe and sanitize the dome, tray and bowl between product changes. Smooth surfaces, no fabric, no trapped seams. Nothing in the manufacturer's material says any part is dishwasher safe. Wash by hand.

A: Yes. The 16-inch dome, clear tray and black ice bowl are available, as are poles, bases, sign holders, rubber stoppers and spare ice packs. Domes take the most wear because customers open them, so that is the part reordered most often. The 16-inch parts are not currently listed individually on this site.

A: Grocers, bakeries, delis, hotels, caterers and buffet operators running higher-traffic sampling. It is the format for a busy Saturday in a supermarket rather than an occasional tasting. More product per fill, better visibility, and fewer trips back to the display.
