I love this popcorn maker as it pops almost all of the kernels. The only thing I do not like is the lid. There are two delicate plastic inserts on each side to secure the lid. It is frustrating to get in and you need to be patient. Thank goodness there is a 2-year warranty on it.
Like reviews mentioned the kernels don’t all pop and they fly out like crazy before popping. It is just nice that the kids can use it, otherwise I would get rid of it.
