Pops with hot air, not oil, for a delicious low-fat treat! The PopLite® hot air popper pops up to 18 cups in less than 2 1/2 minutes and leaves virtually no unpopped kernels.

PopLite® uses regular or gourmet popcorn for about a third the cost of microwave bags. The measuring scoop makes measuring the right amount of popcorn every time easy and convenient, and also doubles as a handy butter melter when you want a special treat. The chute directs popped kernels right into your bowl. Cleanup is easy too! PopLite® pops without oil, so the base and cover simply wipe clean once you’re done.

    • Extremely quick, no clean-up, and rarely any flopcorn
Size: 18 Cups Color: Yellow
This popper is amazingly reliable. My 1st unit lasted 15 years (and was going strong when I gave it to a friend) and my 2nd unit just died tonight after 20+ years and it probably would've kept going except I accidentally over-loaded it. :( Note that this popper works just as well at 20 years old as it did when brand new. Now THAT is a good design. This popper is fast, extremely fast. Even my 20-yr old unit finished a batch in less than 3 minutes. Seriously, I suggest getting your flavorings ready before turning the unit on. If you fill the popcorn exactly to the line inside the popper, you get a perfect batch every time. You can use less kernels, but you get a few unpopped ones flying into your bowl. Tilting the machine back just a tad will also eliminate unpopped "flyers" if you use less than a full batch. You can even put in a little extra, barely covering the inside measuring line from side, but you'll have to jiggle the popper (e.g. tap it briskly a couple times) to get the kernels swirling. You see, the hot-air blower inside the unit swirls the popcorn, heating them evenly and quickly. If the kernels don't move, the bottom ones will start to burn and the machine will auto-shutoff. (And it stinks to the high heavens!) The popper works so well, don't bother using expensive popcorn. My favorite is Jolly Time which is cheap in the large bags (approx. 2 lbs). The Kroger store-brand of popcorn even works well, and it's dirt-cheap...a real blessing if you eat as much popcorn as I do. :D If you have a Trader Joe's nearby, their popcorn actually cooks with the fewest flopcorn* of them all, even if comparing to the hideously over-priced Orville Redenbocker popcorn. The machine never needs cleaning, either. When done, just tip it so any flopcorn (if any) pours into the waste basket. That's it. It's now ready for another batch. Now, if you try heating butter in the little cup that rests in the top of the unit's cover, THEN you'll have a bit of cleanup...but only that cup. (It's fine in the dishwasher, by the way.) I never use the cup because the unit finishes a batch of popcorn so fast, the butter never has enough time to melt! (And that's true even if you have your butter at room temperature.) Basically, if you want hot butter to pour onto your cooked popcorn, heat it in the microwave while your popcorn's popping. (You'll be much happier.) Tips. 1. Use cheap popcorn as it cooks just as well as over-priced "gourmet" popcorn like the Orville Redenbocker brand. 2. If you like salt, use powdered salt. Morton makes popcorn salt which works well, but you can also powderize your own with a good blender, food processor, or a good spice mill. 3. To get salt or other sprinkled flavorings to stick to your popcorn, give short bursts of cooking spray onto your popcorn and quickly sprinkle a bit of flavoring onto it before it soaks into the popcorn. If you like a LOT of flavoring, spray a bit more and sprinkle faster and longer. :D 4. Johnny's makes a great popcorn salt and a little goes a long ways. Regular powdered salt is cheaper and is just as good in my opinion (but my wife swears by it, hehe). 5. For best results (i.e. the least amount of flopcorn), fill the unit just enough with popcorn so the fine line internal measuring line inside the heating chamber is covered. Tilt the machine back just a little (e.g. place a pencil, butter knife, or other .5" item) underneath the front of the popper's base until enough popped corn has filled the popping chamber; this keeps uncooked popcorn from flying out. 6. If you put in just a little more popcorn so the internal measuring line is covered by 1 or 2 layers of kernels (AND jiggle the unit to make sure it starts swirling), you'll not only get a slightly larger batch of popcorn, but you won't have any unpopped popcorn flying out, even without tilting the unit. Note: The machine is a tad noisy when running. It's not really loud, just a little annoying. It's not a big deal, but I thought I'd mention it. For comparison, it's about as loud as a hairdryer on its lowest setting. It's maybe as loud as the fan on a microwave. Also note: Hot-air popped popcorn is dry. I mean dry. Really dry. Popcorn, in general, is dry, but popping it without oil/butter/etc. makes it as dry as dry can be, maybe drier. ;) If you put flavorings on it, you'll never never notice it, though. I thought hot-air neophytes might find this curious, though, maybe even a bit surprising. (I actually like it better.) * Flopcorn: The unpopped kernels remaining after popping a batch of popcorn. ... show more

    • Nice air popcorn popper
Size: 18 Cups Color: Yellow
The presto popcorn popper works just fine. It's easy to use, and makes popcorn way less expensively and tastier than the microwave popcorn bags. It's probably better for me, too, since it has no preservatives, and less salt. Plus, I can flavor it any way I want.

    • Pops almost every kernal, but no on/off switch
Size: 18 Cups Color: Yellow
Grandpa wanted a hot air pop popcorn for a healthy evening snack, so we settled on this one as a basic, affordable, easy to use, & efficient popcorn popper. And it is efficient, although it does pop out a few unpopped kernals at the very beginning, it leaves very few kernals unpopped at the end. Easy to clean after each use. The one draw back we didn't note while selecting this model is that there is no on/off button (not mentioned in product description, but in hindsight obvious in the product photo). You must plug it in to begin popping, and must unplug it to stop the machine. The cord is 30" long and a little stiff, which makes it difficult to plug into the outlet on the wall back of the kitchen counter between the other small appliances there, then to reach around the hot popper to unplug it. You may have a different countertop setup with an outlet in closer reach that will make plugging in to start easier for you. We manage, but we'll replace it with a different model when this one wears out. ... show more

    • This is my 3rd one
Size: 18 Cups Color: Yellow
These hot air poppers that look like this one are all identical - same Chinese factory, just different labels (or colors). Essentially the "Brand" is just a marketing device for the USA customer. This one comes in a "Presto" facade. The last two failed in a few months ( different "brands" same exact manufacturer). The 1st one must have overheated, lasted maybe 8 months or longer. Odd because these units have a thermal limit switch, but I guess they have not been designed correctly, nor tested (typical Chinese Qc - little to none). So the thermal burns thru instead of cutting out on high limit as it should. The second one failed due to the blower wheel becoming loose on the motor shaft. Super soft cheap plastic ( neither formulated nor suitable for the applicable/operation temperature range). The wheel is affixed to the motor shaft by "stab-on" interference fit. I epoxied it but that only lasted a few cycles. This latest one I bought discounted as "used." It arrived next day and is BRAND NEW. Absolutely clean, unused. It shipped/arrived in its original glossy factory box with an Amazon label applied to it - no usual wrapper shipping cardboard box & not much internal shock isolation stuffing (which is fine by me - less waste). It survived the 1 day trip. It works absolutely flawlessly as the previous ones have. Let's see how long this one lasts. Pops kernels completely & in the 98% range. The max load is about 400 kernels. Of these, I routinely have 4-6 un-popped. These few (un-popped kernels remaining in the unit), have to do with the corn, not the popper. If you can find a "used" one, buy it. Save a few bucks. Help reduce the massive return waste that Amazon must deal with. If it is a dud return it and pay a few bucks and get a " new" one. Used is really the box, it looks a little handled that's all. These poppers have NO on/off switch. Chinese penny pinching. NOTE: When the pop rate drops off to nearly 1 per second, wait a few seconds then UNPLUG IT IMMEDIATELY to preserve the super fragile cheap wiring and components. This gets 5 stars based on value. All poppers are massed produced Chinese toy junk, but this one works great (until it fails). Compared to all the other "junk" poppers, this one is at the top of the heap ( best :) All this nonsense about them throwing popcorn all over the place is absurd. I put a big bowl under the discharge chute and it catches 100%. The foul odor complaint is also nonsense. EVERY new device, particularly a heat appliance will have a preliminary start up odor associated with the plastic and residues from manufacturing. After the 1st or 2nd cycle all is fine. What do you want for $22-26? No reason to pay any more. Higher prices are just marketing and hype to sucker people into thinking it is a "better? product. These all have the same motor, same design, same plastics. ... show more

    • Excellent Product, Well Made, Works Great
Size: 18 Cups Color: Yellow
Pops a LOT of popcorn, loses few kernels. Super fast. Got a HUGE bowl popped in under 5 minutes. Works great, easy to clean.

    • Works great! Good price, very happy.
Size: 18 Cups Color: Yellow
This is my first air popper and I'm very pleased with it. I tape a piece of paper towel on the chute to extend it down a little. This prevents the occasional popcorn from missing the bowl. This unit pops almost all the kernels and is very easy to use and clean up. Works as described, great price.
