Review on The Original Popco Silicone Microwave Popcorn Popper with Handles | Popcorn Maker Bowl | Collapsible and Dishwasher Safe | BPA Free | Available in 15 Vibrant Colors – Light Blue by Amy Moore

UPDATE: I've been using this bowl regularly for 10 months now and it definitely lives up to its original standard! I still wash it in the dishwasher (on the top shelf) and it definitely keeps up with my regular use. The only complaint is that the brown spot on the bottom has increased a bit (due to using too much oil), but that hasn't affected the taste and certainly still seems safe. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Yes, that's why I love popcorn so much. How much. This bowl has saved me so much money since I bought it 6 months ago. The kernels are a lot cheaper than instant bags, and the air popper allows you to make healthier popcorn or add your own flavor to it. This air popper has two different filling lines, one serving and two. When you fill it up to two servings, the lid lifts up so it just falls onto a mound of popcorn teeming out of the bowl. When I bought this, POPCO emailed me a PDF with literally hundreds of popcorn recipes. . However, I've found that my favorites are either avocado oil and sea salt or olive oil, sea salt, rosemary, and lemon. The only problem is that if you're an avid handwasher, it can be difficult to clean. However, it comes out clean in the dishwasher and I regularly place both the lid and bowl on the top shelf. I use it mostly every day (I told you I love popcorn so much) and it showed no signs of wear except for some brown spots on the bottom from using too much olive oil. All in all, what a great purchase. If you are looking for a way out of junk food, this is such a powerful step. Pro Tip: Check out oils and their smoke point before using this. If you use oils with a higher smoke point (like avocado), your popcorn is less likely to burn and you avoid the brown spots that appeared on my bottom when I used olive oil. Also keep in mind that microwave cooking time depends on what you put in (and to be honest, you can just put in bare cores and you'll be fine).
