What Our Customers Say

"I bought this item in Target a while ago while looking for a simple popcorn maker. My kids helped me make the choice, and it certainly was the right one! Makes PERFECT MOVIE THEATER QUALITY popcorn right before your eyes!!! The ease of use and almost no lost corn kernels makes this the most efficient popcorn maker I have ever seen! The kids love to watch it in action."
Za Doc
"So far, I am liking this popcorn popper very much. You do have to let it preheat, and because I use the smaller hull free popcorn, I do get some pop outs. It's just my husband and myself, so it pops just the right amount for the two of us. When the grandkids are here, we will have to pop two batches, but it pops up quickly so this is not a problem."
Andy
"I received the popcorn maker in great condition and used it right out of the box! Since this is my first machine I really have nothing to compare it to, but I wish it made a little more popcorn. It is relatively quiet and pops quickly. Overall I'm pretty satisfied with the machine."
Nae
"I love this retro-feeling popcorn maker because it pops all kernals, doesn’t have the chemicals of microwave popcorn, and has a nifty warming pot for butter, chocolate or caramel!"
JJ
"Easy to use ... easy to pop popcorn in about 3 minutes ... Pops 99% t0 100% all the time ... easy to wash ... easy to make a variety of popcorns toppings ... LOVE IT"
D. Ervin
"I was skeptical at first because I’ve had a similar popper with a metal arm that spun. As a matter of fact when I bought this one I also bought an air popper and had expected to return this one. This one did such an amazing job I gave away the air popper without even trying it. Almost every time I pop the popcorn, every seed is popped. What is so amazing about the melting pot is it’s so easy to be creative. I frequently add Parmesan cheese to my butter that’s melting and I prefer my popcorn to movie theater popcorn. You could add any kind of seasoning, jalapeños or anything else you want to the melting pot and it works while your popcorn is popping. Every person I’ve shown this to ends up getting one for themselves."

Frequently Asked Questions
