    Nostalgia Electrics made a great popcorn maker. It is very easy to use but my only hangup is in contrast that it wastes a little too much of the popping corn. However, for the price that I paid I am satisfied.

    We purchased this pop corn maker as we are really lovers of pop corn and allows you to make your pop corn without oil. It is fast and the amount of pop corn is really convenient, not big not small just ok! Also really good price!!!

    I love this thing :) It looks cool, it pops the corn fast, and the price is cheaper than other brands. What more can you ask for? I did have the issue with "chewy" popcorn as another reviewer mentioned, but that is because I bought 'store brand' popcorn. Spend the extra money and buy a good brand of popcorn kernels and you'll be all set. Enjoy!

    I purchased this hot air popper as a healthy alternative to microwave popcorn. Unfortunately, it fails at its most basic function. I promptly returned it and purchased a different popper. Avoid this popper at all costs.

    Shots kernels and popped corn all over. You'll need to find a perfectly curved bowl at just the right height to avoid a mess. Only plus was daily deal price.

    Only 20% of popcorn actually pop. You HAVE to tilt it to get them out because they do not jump out. Noisy and costly. Have to heat it for 2 minutes running Before putting the popcorn.

    I had a similar one years ago and gave it away because we always made microwave popcorn, but now we look at chemicals used in the bag and buy a lot of organic food and want to go back to making popcorn without all the chemicals, just popcorn and butter.
