Summary: Great popper
Comment: This is a great popper. It's fast and efficient and of course healthy since it's an air popper. No oil needed. Also it's worth the price for sure. I tried a $15 air popper from Target and it was almost worthless. It shot scalding un-popped kernels all over the kitchen and popped less than half of the kernels total. However this great popper pops 99% of the kernels, giving you a delicious huge bowl of fresh popcorn every time. Con: No on/off switch. By the way, this is the same exact model as the Orville Redenbacher version just less expensive.

Summary: Blows Unpopped Kernels Out
Comment: I ordered this based on the claims that it leaves virtually no unpopped kernels. Well, it blows quite a few out. I returned it. I did try the instructions in the most helpful review and I still got unpopped kernels. If I use the large, expensive, gourmet kernels, and hold and tilt the popper back while it's on, it does pop more of the kernels. But, that's a pain, and the unpopped kernels start flying at the end of the popping, when there aren't as many popped kernels to keep them from flying out.
Also, why does this popper shoot air up from the bottom - which makes the kernels more likely to fly out - instead of having the air come in from the side, as other air poppers do?
I'm going to try buy an old black & decker model on Ebay where the kernels pop in a container with slots that keep the kernels from flying out. PS. I bid a lot on one auction that ends dec - 21.

Summary: The BEST ever air popper!
Comment: This thing is awesome! Our other air popper was starting to poo out, almost 1/2 the kernels would not pop and stuff was always flying around...this is perfect...the easier it is to pop popcorn and the less it irritates the wife, the more popcorn she will make for you..BUY IT!

Summary: Very Nice Popper
Comment: This popper does indeed work extremely fast. Don't over fill with kernals, that is, don't go beyond the line they recommend. That alone will give you a big bowl of popcorn.
My only criticism is what others have mentioned; there is no on/off switch.
Other than that, nice product and nicely priced.

Summary: air popcorn popper
Comment: I read the other reviews before purchasing this item. I think it is a good value. The only problem I had was that the top flew off the first time I used it (without butter in the top), and seemed a bit loose, so I have since weighted it down. I have not had any problems with popcorn going anywhere but into the bowl. Really fast results. I have had no leftover kernels. Air popped corn is certainly not as tasty as oil popped corn or microwave popcorn, and salt does not cling, but it is obviously healthier and has nothing to do with this machine!
