This popcorn maker is amazing! We got it when it was on sale and it was definitely worth it! Only takes a couple minutes to make a batch of popcorn!

Disappointing Purchase

Bought this popcorn machine for my small business to offer complimentary popcorn to my staff and patients. The quality is decent, but the design is poor and difficult to use and to clean.
A. The kettle is not easily accessed while trying to put the popcorn packets into the kettle to pop. The lid does not stay up on its own and is hot which made it very difficult. Maybe it would have worked better if the actual lid/access was placed towards the opening of the machine vs the side.
B. Emptying and cleaning this machine was annoying and time consuming. It seems the design would be better if the tray were removable.
C. The scoops are very small and cheaply made. Not worth the hassle of even trying to use. I suggest you buy a set separately from those that come with the machine.
D. The popcorn did not stay warm while in wait for someone to scoop it up and eat it. A feature that you would expect in purchasing such a machine.
D. It would have been nice if a sample or two of product were included with this purchase. I imagine there are small businesses out there that would love the opportunity to have their product included in the sale. Just a thought.

Deal of the Day was a bargain. Small, works great. I bought 4 oz prepackaged from Amazon. Fills about 10 cups. Takes 3 minutes. The light isn’t much of a heating lamp. Not sure if that’s the purpose. The scoop small but ok. Easy to clean. The kettle is removable.

This works great like a movie theater machine. Makes a lot and most kernels pop! Only negative, the bucket gets a bit oily and will require a bit of cleaning. Using a stainless cleaner like Bar Keeper's Friend works great. Doesn't require much scrubbing when you sprinkle the cleanser inside and let it sit for 10 mins. The cover cannot come off completely from the center unless you unscrew it; too bad Cuisinart did not incorporate a release mechanism into the design. My kids love watching the popped corn tumble into the bottom.

This is a nice size for a small group of 3 or 4 people. Once warmed up, it will produce popcorn within a few minutes and clean up is pretty easy. I recommend you buy the 10 oz prepackaged popcorn, oil and seasoning. Just dump the packet and start enjoying your popcorn.

Movie experience at home

With movie theaters shut down, and their futures uncertain. Many of us have taken to fully embracing our movie nights at home. This Cuisinart Popcorn Maker allows you to enjoy one of the main attractions of movie theaters, the popcorn. Yeah, yeah, I know, there is microwave popcorn available. But, try to satisfy a hungry mob by making batch after batch of microwave popcorn. With this beauty, you can have as much on hand as you want, and the warming light will prevent it from getting cold.
There are several brands of ‘popcorn complete’ packages out there that include the popcorn, the oil, even the butter flavored salt. Pour the contents of the package into the preheated kettle and start passing out the bowls. It even comes with a plastic scoop (that you’ll definitely want to replace because it’s too small). I bought a scoop with small holes in it to reduce the amount of kernels in my bowl.
Clean up is relatively easy, especially after you’ve done it a few times. The parts become easier to disassemble and wash, then reassemble the more you do it.
Aside from being a cool looking, novel appliance, it delivers big on giving you copious amounts of movie-style popcorn. The theater experience may not ever be the same again, but at least you won’t have to miss out on your favorite movie snack.

We bought this popcorn maker after previously purchasing a 2.5 oz popcorn maker that was small like a kids toy. We were nervous whether this popcorn maker was going to be a larger size. We were happy upon receipt because it is large and makes great popcorn! We love it! We cannot recommend it enough. It looks great in our media room. It pops a sufficient amount of popcorn. We purchased it during a Best Buy Deal of the Day. It was a great buy!!!

What a fun machine! Popcorn comes out tasting just like they serve at the movie theater! Light on the inside keeps the popcorn at the perfect temp. Machine is easy to use and, more importantly, easy to clean. 5 stars from me!!!!!

This is a great machine if you are a major fan of fresh popped popcorn. Worked great, easy cleanup , and fun to have your popcorn made like in a movie theatre. The sale price was unbelievable that I purchased three (3) machines to give to my children for their use. The grandchildren get a big kick out of having this machine and watching it pop the kernels.

When I purchased this popcorn popper, my granddaughters laughed at me, and said it was a toy that would not get any use. it has become a favorite of my wife and one granddaughter. It makes great tasting popcorn, like movie theater popcorn. It is easy to clean, and it gets use once to twice a week.

Works very well. I got it for the discount price and added a couple of coupons to bing the price to $69.99. Definitely worth that price. It is small, but pops enough popcorn for household use. You could probably get a commercial unit for the full retail non sale price. Otherwise it’s great.

Cute little popcorn machine. It works fantastically and can do several batches at a time. Keeps the popcorn warm. I use butter popcorn oil and flavorsalt combo for the recipe. Easy to clean as well. I highly recommend if you're looking for something a little more nostalgic.

I bought this for work. It makes enough quickly enough for employees to enjoy throughout the day. It looks nice and made great tasting popcorn. It worked great the first time and popped quickly. It's a fun treat to enjoy, easily sharable. It's easy to keep clean between uses.

This popcorn maker works great, however the biggest opportunity for this machine is the cleaning of it. In order to store properly you have to clean it thoroughly to avoid having "visitors" in the box later on.
