We love it! good for kitchen and dining room

So pleased with our new purchase I bought this for my husband who is addicted to microwave bags. Knowing that microwave bags cause cancer, I wanted to get myself a suitable machine. It's fun and fills our home with the wonderful smell of popcorn and is easy to use and assemble. It takes up a little counter space, but it's fun and I recommend it as a great choice for anyone who loves popcorn. I bought coconut oil and flavacol which adds to the real cinematic experience. Good product

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • Can't remember but there was something

I bought this for our team at work and it gets a LOT of use. After a while, the handle for unlocking and unloading popcorn broke. The machine could still be used, but it was necessary to insulate the handle with something from your hand so as not to burn yourself. We 3D printed a new one and it stayed. Also, the machine works as advertised but be careful with the amount of popcorn it makes as I was expecting more. One batch serves about two people, so consider a larger option if you're using it

Pros
  • Robust design
Cons
  • The list is long.

Poor design and unsatisfactory product results

Upon unpacking, the construction of the Funtime Tabletop Popcorn Popper was of poor quality. The first batch of popcorn was made on a Great Northern 4 ounce coffee maker. portion packaging. If you like raw, hard popcorn with 20% unopened kernels, then this machine is for you. Following the Great Northern package directions carefully, 3 attempts resulted in consistently inedible popcorn. A final attempt was made using fresh original Orville Redenbacher popcorn and popcorn oil and salt in theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • not bad

Seems to have been a good deal though?.

Ok promptly as expected MADE IN CHINA! which in itself should say a lot eg GLASS DOOR HINGE PINS didn't fit, needed fixing Front glass door works fine. The instructions are less than adequate, so you'll be there alone, but on the good side it appears to be made out of fairly good quality stainless steel and the paint job is pretty good. One negative is that they put stickers on the bottom of the bin right where it gets hot and the sticker is of course very difficult to remove. It also seems toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Looking forward to
Cons
  • Long delivery

Great machine, suitable for small appliances

The keys to making great popcorn are balance and temperature. This machine offers heat and temperature control, and Great Northern Popcorn ensures balanced ingredients. My family loves the taste of popcorn and our guests love the fact that I have a popcorn maker that I proudly display in our home bar. When I say it tastes better than movie popcorn, that means that when you pair this awesome machine with a quality popcorn product like Great Northern, you get a perfectly balanced taste of saltโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Regular Price
Cons
  • Infuriates

Good popcorn for the money

OK Bought this thing three days ago. It's smaller than you might expect, but just right if you don't want it dominating your kitchen. Be careful when unpacking as the parts (pin and small screw/rod) may have fallen to the bottom of the box and you will not be able to use the device without this part. For popcorn bags, I use Great Northern Popcorn's 4-ounce bags, which contain butter, salt, and grains. I also bought a box of Flavacol which is a really good fine grain salt with butter and a bite.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • High price

It is great. Kids love it

Great stuff. The kids love it. It makes popcorn EXACTLY like in the theater as the popcorn slowly gushes from the top of the kettle. Poor design of the latch for emptying the kettle and while it works well I think they could have done better. doesn't really matter and works absolutely fine, never had a problem, but is just a cheap mechanism that runs like a spring on a metal plate. My only other complaint has to be that there are no vents at the top. So if you start slamming the jar really hard

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Updates available
