A product stuffer has a bucket train, a carton conveyor which, at a stuffing station, parallels the bucket train and is arranged for conveying a carton adjacent to, and in registration with, an outlet end of a bucket in the bucket train, and a product pusher train which, at the stuffing station, parallels said bucket train and is arranged for providing a product pusher adjacent to, and in registration with, an inlet end of a bucket in the bucket train. Each bucket in the bucket train is open-ended and has a floor with a plurality of parallel grooves which slope toward one sidewall of the bucket and a ceiling with a plurality of parallel grooves which slope away from the one sidewall. Consequently, products in a sheaf of upstanding products inserted into the bucket are urged to lean over as the sheaf is pushed through the bucket so that a shingled sheaf of products leaves the bucket. The shingled sheaf may be stuffed into a carton having a lesser height than that of a sheaf of upstanding products.
