DASH Fresh Pop Popcorn Maker - Oil-Free, Air Popcorn Popper - With Measuring Cup & Recipe Guide - Perfect for Movie Nights - 16 Cups, Aqua

I only gave this five stars because it's not a premium machine and my expectations are reasonable for the price point. That said, it works as advertised. It's fast, easy to clean and easy to store. It does exactly what you'd expect without any issues. It's not a highly specialized machine, but it was only $20. Can't beat that.

We replaced our old hot air popper with this one and are very impressed that it pops the popcorn bigger, with very few unpopped kernels. It's lightweight and compact, so it stores easily. We got the aqua one - very pretty. Two small downsides: 1) You have to pour the popcorn in before you put the top on. (You use the cup to measure out the right amount.) And it's hard to get all the popcorn in without spilling some, even with the top off. 2) The top is a little tricky to line up and snap on. All in all, though, this is a great popcorn popper for a very reasonable price! Highly recommended.

I purchased this popcorn maker on a whim and I have now used it multiple times. It is really easy to use and does exactly what it’s supposed to do. You just add the kernels, turn it on and it pops quickly (2-3 minutes) with very few unpopped ones. I like that it doesn’t use oil in the machine as it doesn’t require a bunch of clean up. It’s also small enough to leave out or store without taking up much space. The only downside is the butter tray doesn’t actually melt the butter very well — it mostly just softens it, so I still melt butter separately. That part is a bit disappointing as the butter melting ability was one of the draws I had to this machine. Other than that, it’s been reliable and great for quick popcorn at home. Side note, I highly recommend using butter flavored coconut oil as a butter alternative as well. It tastes great and helps give that movie theater butter taste. Just don’t forget to add a little salt too. Yum!

I gave this 5 stars because it does what it advertises, it is quick, one heaping measuring cup fills a 5-quart mixing bowl with popcorn, it is easy to fill, clean up takes about 5 seconds, its compact, and the price is right. Some comments. Be careful because it is quite hot after use, as warned in the instructions. I mention this, because one does not expect a thin plastic item to be that hot. When all the corn is popped, I turn off the button and go about adding butter and some salt to the popcorn then sit and enjoy it. Later I come back for my 5 second clean up. It is inefficient to melt the butter in the measuring cup, I use a paper bowl in the micro, easy and no clean up. I have been on a low carb diet for a year, and this is my go-to snack. Use it about every two days. It does shoot some popped and unpopped corn around the countertop, but I don’t find it to be bothersome. There is only one item that slightly bothers me, and that is the two plastic clips that attach the plastic top to the base. They seem to be somewhat fragile. And therefore, I am careful when I attach the top to the base.

Love this little popper! Makes good popcorn pretty quickly. Just be aware if you use small kernels they may go flying towards the end of popping! Easy to use - just put the kernels in, turn it on and away it goes! It also doesn’t hurt that is comes in pretty colors! I have the egg dash to match!

The technology for air popcorn poppers has greatly improved and this machine makes popping corn a breeze with easy clean-up. The popped corn is not dry and is very flavorful. The machine operates as described and does not take up much room on the counter or in storage. Just add the popcorn and you quickly have a delightful snack. I enjoy the smell of popcorn almost as much as eating it. Great value and the color of the machine can add a pop of color to your counter top.

My grandma did love this thing, however, it almost started a fire. It tripped a breaker, so we moved it to another outlet. Tripped the breaker for that too. Once the electrician figured everything out, he had us test the popcorn maker again. Turns out, it had started burning the kernals and smoking. Sent in a cust service message on their website. Hoping to hear back. If they do I can update my review to five stars. But for now it's 3 as a popcorn maker should last more than a year before it's toast. Just glad I was here when it happened.

This is very cool, it make the popcorns ready in 2 mins. Good thing no Oil needed just hot air. Smells great when the popcorns are ready.

Good product Must buy

Burning motor smell when turned on, tried several times so not a “new product smell”.

اشتريت هذه الماكينة وشحنتها إلى السعودية. للأسف من أول استخدام الجهاز اشتعل بالنار! أطفأته وانتظرت فترة ليبرد ثم حاولت تشغيله مرة أخرى وكانت النتيجة نفسها — اشتعال مباشر. المنتج غير آمن وخطير جدًا للاستخدام. لا أنصح بشرائه نهائيًا. للأسف اكتشفت المشكلة بعد انتهاء فترة الاسترجاع.

Excelente compra Se necesita un bowl grande porque salen volando las palomitas y se pueden llegar a caer pero he notado que mientras más maíz uses (siempre cuidando de no pasar la cantidad máxima) esto pasa menos Actualización casi 3 años después, si te gustan las palomitas es la mejor inversión que puedes hacer, la uso mucho, no me ha dado problemas, hay que tener los cuidados de limpieza y todo pero no es nada difícil de mantener en buen estado
