Best Way to Make Popcorn
on July 31, 2025
Posted by: Beth66
Gender:Female
I have had mine for more than 2 years and it works perfectly each time making light and fluffy popcorn in a minimal amount of time. Once early on I overfilled it and it gave off a burning smell and the popcorn was not moving so I i.mediately unplugged it but ever since it works like a charm and is my favorite small appliance. Always be sure to keep the top on while it cools so it doesnt warp and dont overfilled and it will work for years.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for your review. You're right, if you overfill the popper, it will shut off for safety; and yes, burned popcorn has a nasty smell! Glad you got this figured out! Just a note, make sure to cool the popper if you need to pop multiple batches. This too, will overheat the popper and cause it to shut off. Enjoy your popper!

Gave this as a gift to a popcorn loving friend, and she can't believe how easy it is to use and how fast it pops up a fluffy bowl of popcorn! Plus, it's compact and really cute.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Super easy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free in exchange for a honest opinion. I’ve never used a popcorn maker like this but it was by far very easy to use. My little one enjoyed seeing the popcorn come out and he even knows how to use it. The noise level was not very loud. Also he the cleaning process was super easy and didn’t leave an oily feeling. 10/10 recommend.

Simple to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This popcorn popper is super easy to use. There is no power button you just plug it in to start it and unplug to stop it. There is a fill line inside the machine if you want to pop the max amount of popcorn or you can use the included scoop (which doubles as a butter melter) to measure. Perfect for family movie nights

Fun to watch, taste is great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this popcorn maker. It was super fun for the kids to watch, and the popcorn came out great. I used white corn kernels, but I think it would work better with yellow corn. They were flying all over my kitchen in the beginning, which was frustrating. I loved the butter compartment on top that melted the butter as your popcorn popped. Overall, this is a fun kitchen appliance, and my kids are obsessed with the homemade popcorn!

Easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was surprised how easy this was to use! I have never used an air popper before but it was very simple and clean up was easy. Although it didn't have the delicious buttery flavor but you can add seasoning after making the popcorn.

Lovely homemade popcorn!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the size of the machine. The popcorn tasted great and popped quick. Only downfall was that it suddenly started popping without warning and popcorn went everywhere. Otherwise it is great!
