 Great popcorn, don't understand other people's problems March 27, 2006

This is a great, inexpensive hot air popcorn popper. Measure your popcorn using the built-in scoop, plug it in, wait five minutes, eat popcorn.
We do not have very many unpopped kernels. Nor do we have popcorn flying everywhere. We use Safeway-brand popcorn, which happens to be the cheapest stuff on the shelf .
Some people (including the adults in this family) prefer kettle-popped corn. If this is the case, look at the Stir Crazy brand-we have the 6-quart model available here on Amazon. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that we prefer kettle corn-it is, well, crispier and crunchier. But our daughter likes hot-air popcorn. So if you like hot-air popcorn, this is all you need.

I got this for an engineering project, and I think it works pretty well. It pops about the same amount as a bag popcorn.But no oil was used (kinda tasteless because of this). But you can add butter on top of it. The only down side is that it doesn't have a switch so that when you plug it in, it starts to pop. I got it at Wal Mart of $14.99, so conside it's price and all, it's a pretty good product.

Trust a guy who eats popcorn every day - this is the one. Yes, you may get a stray kernel or two at the beginning and a few more at the end. This popper is much better than the others I've tried (3 other models).
This one also creates fluffier popped corn than average which is nice.
It's available for even cheaper at a certain retail behemoth that starts with Wa.

This is a good poper for the price! it pops almost all the corn (it only leaves some if you don't put in 1/2 cup) that is the only thing i did not like about it you have to make 1/2 cup of corn every time but it makes a very larg bowl of corn!!! so it is a good poper and for around $15 at wal-mart it's a good deal too!

After 22 years with my wedding gift popcorn popper waiting 3 minutes to heat before adding the corn, I am happy not to have to use up 3 minutes of electricity for the popper and my kitchen timer with my new air popper. However, warning: hot plastic, as in the top part, I have just learned, gives off toxins to your food. Unfortunately, this popper, like all others, has a plastic top which gets very hot. So although we eliminated the oil/fat by not popping in a pot, we added dangerous toxins from the plastic to our food. No way to be safe in this society. By the way, this popper spits out a dozen unpopped kernels before the popping actually starts.
