Presto 04869 Poplite Hot Air Popcorn Popper - Built-In Measuring Cup + Melts Butter, Easy to Clean, Built-In Cord Wrap, 18 Cups, Aqua/White

My mom had a hot air popper when I was growing up and we loved it. As I got older I got lazy and just bought microwave popcorn but that always hurt my stomach. I got a microwave popper and that would leave so many kernels and burn the popcorn. Making it on the stove was a pain so I finally decided to get an air popper. I looked at several and reviews seemed to be the best for this one and they had it in the aqua color which matched my coastal themed house. I’m so glad I picked this one. There were barely any leftover kernels that didn’t pop, it popped the popcorn fast and what an easy cleanup. The only thing I to do after it cooled down was blow off some little kernel shells the stuck to the lid from static. The popcorn was so good. I always buy Orville Redenbacher because I just like it the best. I also use the Orville Redenbacher popcorn oil instead of mealted butter which makes popcorn soggy and I use the Kernal Season’s Seasoning. I like all the flavors so I get the variety packs. I love this popper so much and I’m glad I finally broke down and got it. This will be used a lot!

It is very light weight and compact but it is very powerful and nearly every kernel was popped color looks great in my kitchen no popcorn was burned I wouldn’t recommend melting butter straight from the fridge in it I will just use the liquid butter from now on pops fast and fluffy popcorn

Works great!! but be ready when the last couple kernels are coming out! they have mind of their own lol

It's an air popcorn popper, it works. Although compared to another brand we had that's cheaper I find it odd that there's no on/off switch?? You'd think for a higher priced unit of this type you would get a power switch?? Also the opening where the popcorn comes out has a pretty wide mouth. Much wider than our other unit. You need a larger or taller bowl to catch it or the popcorn goes flying all over the place.

I usually cook my popcorn by stove top but was looking to eliminate oil from the process.This popper is fast, efficient, and simple to use. Compared to the stovetop and microwave bag option, this popper wasted far fewer kernels. I should have counted, but guessing, I would say there may have been 3 unpopped kernels.The only thing lacking was an on off switch/button.

This is the perfect air popper.

I wanted to like this air popper for healthier popcorn choices, BUT it takes quite a few minutes ( nearly 10) for it to heat up and start to popping the kernels! ALSO, due to the hot air flow, it tosses UNPOPPED Kernels out almost immediately and then once it heats up, starts to pop the last of the kernels, leaving you with a huge amount of kernels in your bowl! I really hate that the return window has closed because this is an absolute disaster and piece of junk!!

I am a big popcorn fan. So many online reviews said this is the one to get. It made decent popcorn, but broke after using it 6 times! What a bummer.
