## Abstract

We show that if there is no family of cardinality less than $\mathbf{c}$ which dominates $^\omega\omega$, then the box product of countably many compact first-countable spaces is paracompact; hence the countable box product of compact metrizable spaces is paracompact if $2^\omega = \omega_2$. We also give classes of forcing extensions in which many box products are paracompact.
