Description

Best hot air popper! Convenient, natural and light! Pops regular or gourmet popping corn with hot air, not oil, for a healthy, low calorie treat ! Fast! Pops up to 18 cups of gourmet corn in less than 2 1/2 minutes. Leaves virtually no un-popped kernels. 120 volts, 60 Hz only. Plug in Presto’s PopLite and the party begins. In less than 2-1/2 minutes you’ll have up to 18 cups--two large bowlfuls--of fluffy popcorn with virtually no unpopped kernels. And because the machine uses hot air instead of oil, the resulting snack is healthier and lower in calories. That’s not to say you can’t add butter; in fact, the 1/2-cup measuring cup on top of the popper doubles as a butter melter. Simply put in the desired amount of margarine or butter (room temperature is best), and it melts from the heat produced during the popping process. The clear plastic cover and cup, which must stay on during popping so the popped corn doesn’t fly all over the room, easily remove for hand cleaning with warm, soapy water. No other clean-up is required. While a few unpopped kernels spring out the chute as the machine begins to heats up, the chute does a good job of directing the popped corn into a bowl. The popper measures 14 by 9 by 6-1/2 inches, and is identical to Presto’s Orville Redenbacher Hot Air Corn Popper except for color and logo. Presto covers 1 year limited warranty. --Ann Bieri NOTE: State of California Proposition 65 requires that we include the following warning: WARNING!

It offers a faster, healthier, and more economical choice than microwave-bag popcorn. Use regular or gourmet popcorn with terrific results--virtually no unpopped kernels. Up to 18 cups of gourmet popcorn are popped in less than 2-1/2 minutes, up to 40 percent faster than other leading hot air poppers. Butter melter doubles as a handy measuring cup.

  • EXTREMELY happy
Size: 18 Cups Color: Yellow
I am extremely happy with this popper. It's attractive, lightweight, and simple. The top and the measuring cup fit nicely. I appreciate the lack of a switch--one less thing to break. I mean, I'm going to have to plug it in every time I use it anyway. I made my first batch and it was perfect--perfect! There were very, very few unpopped kernels. And the popcorn was surprisingly plump (noticeably better that my oil-based popper with the same batch of kernels). Tasted fine. I used my biggest Pyrex bowl and it filled it. The machine was not nearly as loud as I thought it would be based on other reviews. I let it cool and simply rinsed everything off. One thing to note: after it pops and you unplug it, wait! Wait at lease 30 seconds or so for the few hot kernels in the machine to finish popping. It's surprising when they pop with the cover off. ... show more

  • Healthy & delicious hot air popcorn!
Size: 18 Cups Color: Red
This hot air popcorn maker is a game changer! You can make healthy, great tasting popcorn with no oil or butter. It’s compact, nice looking, easy to use & clean, and quickly pops a large bowl from the measuring scoop that’s included. There’s no need to make microwave popcorn or traditional high caloric, high fat popcorn ever again if you have one of these nifty popcorn makers. ... show more

  • Darn good popper but don't put the measuring cup in a microwave
Size: 18 Cups Color: Yellow
I was using a cast iron frying pan with a little oil in it but this is way better. Also better than microwave popcorn. Makes super fluffy popcorn, no burnt kernels, more kernels fully pop, and of those few that don't pop, some stay in the machine so they're a little easier to separate. Seems to be just as fast as popping them on a stove top or in a microwave. I find that it can help to tilt the popper back a little so that unpopped kernels are less likely to get blown out, especially so with some smaller kernels such as white popcorn. Once the chamber fills with popped kernels, they tend to hold the unpopped ones in the chamber. The measuring dish is sort of effective in melting butter but some remains unmelted. I put the yellow dish in the microwave to finish the job but the hot butter melted the plastic. Bad idea. ... show more

  • Pops nearly all the kernels
Size: 18 Cups Color: Green/Gold
Poplite hot air popcorn popper is a fantastic product. It pops nearly all the kennels. Very fast popping, good price, easy to clean, delivered in a timely manner.

  • Popcorn was never easier
Size: 18 Cups Color: Yellow
Love this popper! So easy and fast it's ridiculous. About 3 minutes to pop up a good sized bowl and no oil needed. Takes up very little counter space and requires almost no maintenance.

  • Luvs it!
Size: 18 Cups Color: Yellow
If I’m not mistaken, I believe Presto was one of the first companies that came out with the hot air popcorn popper back when I was in my early 20s. Now, at 60 years old I just ordered another one. It works fantastic just as the one I had many decades ago. I like the design but more than that I made sure to buy the correct size (either measured by court or cup of popped corn) and nailed it perfectly! This popcorn popper popped all of the corn that you see in the bowl except for two kernels. I ordered this because was sick and tired for paying an arm and a leg for, massively fake, and fattening prepackaged, buttered popcorn. With my brand new Presto poplite I get to choose whether I want butter on my popcorn or use a cooking spray (less fattening 😉) and add popcorn seasoning, etc. I LOVE popcorn and had been eating a bag of microwaveable popcorn every single night until I had remembered that several decades ago they made hot air poppers. Yes, it took me that long to remember, but at least I did. I ordered one from Amazon and got it the next day. I could not be happier! I purchased the 18 cup Presto Poplite model. Also, keep in mind, that yellow kernels pop bigger than white popcorn kernels. ... show more

  • Great Popcorn Without Taking Up Much Space
Size: 18 Cups Color: Red
**★★★★★ Great Popcorn Without Taking Up Much Space** I've been very happy with this popcorn popper. It makes delicious popcorn quickly, and the hot air method means I can enjoy a healthier snack without using oil. One thing I really appreciate is that it doesn't take up much space on my counter or in the cabinet. It's compact, easy to use, and easy to clean after each batch. The built in butter melting cup is a nice bonus if you want a little extra flavor. If you're looking for a simple, reliable popcorn popper that doesn't require a lot of storage space, this is a great choice. ... show more

  • Excellent popcorn machine!
Size: 18 Cups Color: Red
This is a remarkable and perfect popcorn machine. In the beginning, one or two kernels might come out into the bowl while it is warming up. After that, there are no remaining kernels in the machine. Plus, no kernels on the counter or floor....disappointing to my dog! I buy Jolly's Select popcorn at Walmart, which is under five dollars for a large jar. I looked at Amazon, and the price was absurd. The only negative part is that there is no on or off button, and it only starts and stops when the plug is in or out of the socket. Thus, a rating of 4. ... show more
