    I grew up watching this guy. Many, many late nights I’ve found myself watching this guy after smoking a fatty and being completely entertained.
    RIP RON

    RIP Ron. I bought a number of his products over the years. The dehydrator was the best I bought. Made great jerky and fruit

    Oh man, the memories this brings back. I loved his commercials. I just couldn't walk away from one of his commercials. I and my family owned a lot of his products. He was amazing.

    RIP Ron Popeil. He was one infomercial spokesperson I enjoyed watching. Billy Mays was the other. Billy's energy was through the roof.

    He was an incredibly meticulous inventor. I love his products, we still have many of his products from the late '80s and early '90s. They all still work like a charm without the replacement parts being ordered or needed.

    This guy was popular and respected as some of your regular TV or actor celebrities. This gentleman was the heart and soul of America. He believed in his products , he would not sell any product that he didn’t think would have a purpose. He put a lot of time and effort into his products, including I think I remember hearing one of his most popular items was the Showtime rotisserie it’s not sure if a lot of people still use that particular product today . I remember seeing one in a Goodwill store just a month ago, but for the time People were buying it and you got what you paid for. He did not skip on quality on his products, unlike some of the products we get from China today.

    One thing I love is the Ronco name is still very much alive today, even if he isn't connected to it, and wasn't at the time of death... And if you're a real fan, many of his original products (some still in shrink wrap!) are all over Ebay :)
