We just got it and used it today. It was easy to use and the family is enjoying the popcorn. The plastic lid top did not click in for us, but it seemed to stay in place while it was making popcorn.
I followed all the directions and it worked exactly as promised. I have only used half a cup each time so far but I am confident it will work just as well with a full cup. There were only about 10 unpopped kernels.
