Easy to use, easy to clean. Melting butter over the top while the popcorn is popping has room for improvement. Butter doesn't melt completely. Easier to melt butter in pan or microwave and pour it on after popcorn is popped.

Ordered this machine during a Best Buy 4 hour sale and received it at a great price. I have used the popcorn popper at least 6 times already. Popcorn pops well though if you use the lid as a bowl, the popcorn can become "damp" from the accumulated steam from the popping process. Additionally, you need to be careful as to not overfill the popper with popcorn. I feel the machine works best with 2/3 cup and 2 tablespoons of oil. The hub used to lock wire stirrer in place is plastic. This concerns me that it will wear out over time. But for the price paid this popcorn popper works well.

I would recommend it for popcorn a little slow to start however. Nearly no old maids and no burnt pieces. It was affordable as well.

I love popcorn when I watch movies. This popper makes great popcorn. A little butter, chocolate raisins, salt and coke hit the spot, they do the trick every time. As I said, LOVE this popper! The price was right; this works for me.

Popper works good so far. It jams on the kernels once in a while, then will reverse direction. The instructions say not to shake the machine, but it pops much more of the corn if it is. Hold the handles together and shake. Slice butter thinly to make sure it melts as the corn is popped.

Bought this machine b/c my kids love popcorn and don't think is super healthy buying the ones you normally use on the microwave. The popper was great sometimes where it pops almost all the popcorn, thus I haven't found the right formula.
My issue is that not always makes all of the popcorn, normally use 1/3 of a cup and it just do about 70% sometimes less. My best results has been when the machine is clean and the next day I make a new one. Already bought need popcorn that is mostly fresh and used 2 kinds of oil canola and vegetable that does not seems to make difference.
In conclusion it works, but you have to patience and sometimes it does it and sometimes it does not work properly.

Took a while to get the feel of how much (and what kind) of oil to use and how much popcorn but all in all like this ALOT better than the bag now. It's more fun too! Kids love it.

Honestly I only bought it because it was a deal of the day so very reasonably priced. The popcorn had a bit of a Teflon taste, quite a bit of it didn't pop, and it was a pain to clean.

Even though directions state one cup for a full bowl, it was too much. Popped great it overflowed the capacity with quite a bit falling all over the place. Recommend 3/4 cup max.

Got tired of microwaved and hot-air popped popcorn. Decided to try the Stir Crazy, and it's just what I needed. Nearly all the kernels pop and the tub is large enough to make plenty to share with that special somebody.

Hands down the best popcorn popper I have ever owned. Head out to Sam's Club or Costco and get some movie theater butter oil and enjoy movie theater popcorn in your home!
