Pops popcorn in an easy to clean pot

This item ensures that you get the best popcorn possible. It is very easy to use. It pre-measures the popcorn in its lid, and if you want to add butter, you just put it in the lid, and your popcorn gets coated while cooking in the microwave.Now I don’t have to eat unhealthy bagged microwave popcorn. Reminds me of being young when my mom used to pop Jiffy popcorn on the stove.Add some cheddar cheese, available on Amazon.

This little popper has several great qualities. It’s cute to look at, it’s made of glass/silicone (which is a healthier choice than plastic), easy to clean, and it’s holding up well with daily use.*Despite the instructions included with the product, it takes 4 minutes, 45 seconds for the maximum popping to complete without scorching in my large microwave. Of course this timing might vary with a microwave in a different size and wattage.* I tried using a teaspoon of oil but it made no difference in timing or volume of popcorn.*Since the popping takes so much longer than implied, I can’t imagine what value placing butter in the process would accomplish since it has a very rapid melting point and would possibly contribute to scorching the popcorn.*The brand of popcorn you use will make a HUGE difference! We started with Whole Foods (365) brand of organic kernels and you can see that a large volume of kernels remained unpopped. The average amount of fully popped corn was not even half of the carafe and equal to about 2.5 cups at the most. I did try to re-pop those leftover kernels but had limited success with this.*When I switched to Bob’s Red Mill, I had much better success and about twice as much popcorn (4-4.5 cups). There are still unpopped kernels, of course, but much more within the normal range one would expect.The popcorn tastes good and it’s nice and crispy so I’m happy with the purchase overall. I do wish that the popper could handle a larger amount of kernels to equal a full carafe of finished popcorn but it’s just not designed that way. And there’s no point to using more than the advised capful, the additional kernels will not pop.

Use it almost daily, the glass part gets really hot though so he careful for that !

Works great but this product, may not last forever, I’m on my second one, it’s worth it, a lot cheaper then buying popcorn in stores these days.

The lid is not made of silicone as stated in the description; rather it is hard plastic. So if the lid is used then the popcorn can pick up microplastics. Alternatively a silicone cover can be repurposed to retain the kernels as they pop.

Great product. I love popping my popcorn on the stove but this gives you the stop top flavor without the microwave carcinogens
