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.

Great popcorn popper!
Color: Yellow Number of Items: 1
This popcorn popper has been worth the money. It's very simple to operate and pops most of the kernals, with very few unpopped. I also like that it is fast, popping a batch in 3 minutes or less. There is a convienent measuring scoop/butter melter on the top of the unit. In addition, it is easy to clean. If you are looking for an air-popper, I recommend this one. I've had it for several months and it's very consistent. ... show more

Pops all the kernels AND the popped kernels are large (in comparison with my previous popper)!
Color: Aqua/White Number of Items: 1
I previously owned a Dash hot air popcorn popper. It only lasted 2-3 years at best. It seems to me that small kitchen appliances typically last much longer than 3 years, so that was strike 1. There were a lot of unpopped kernels remaining with the Dash and the popped kernel size was small. Strike 2 and 3. I decided to pay a little more for my next appliance and this was my choice. So far, really good. No unpopped kernels. The popped kernels are large. This popper is also faster than the Dash popper. The 1 negative - which didn't detract from my rating - is that it doesn't have an on/off button. You turn it on by plugging it in the outlet. It is a slight inconvenience, but I am so satisfied with everything else, it is irrelevant to me. ... show more

This wrrks great. I have to remove 1 star for por design. They NEED to have a on/off switch. You plug it in to turn it on and unplug it to turn it off. Come onnnnnn... How hard is it to have a on/off switch?

This is the way to make popcorn.
Color: Yellow Number of Items: 1
I opened the box and immediately popped a batch of popcorn. It's very easy to use, self-explanatory actually. It's amazing how fast it works once it gets heated up. The popcorn goes flying out of the machine and into your bowl, and if you have trouble with it flying out of the bowl just put a light towel or dish towel or something over the machine. Be careful though. Everything gets very hot. The popcorn and the bowl and the machine and the towel get very hot. Avoid touching anything because you'll get burned. In almost no time, the popcorn is done. it's unbelievable how fast it works. And the popcorn is good too. I melted some butter in a separate pot and put salt on nutritional yeast on the popcorn. It's wonderful. This is my first batch and I don't know how long it'll make popcorn that well, but for a start, it's excellent. ... show more

Popper actually pops the kernels
Color: Yellow Number of Items: 1
This popcorn popper is great! I filled the measuring scooper with kernels poured them in, and as soon as I was ready I plugged it in. It popped pretty quick and the even flow of popcorn coming out went right into my bowl. Leaving only one kernels behind. A friend of mine wanted to look the popper over after trying my popcorn. She was thinking about getting one for herself. The popcorn pieces were full and big. I like how easy it is to use. I would definitely recommend this popcorn popper to a friend. It was more money than the last popper I bought, but I will save on how many kernels it actually pops ... show more

Great value for the money
Color: Yellow Number of Items: 1
I've had this popper for nearly 10 years at this point, purchased in 2017. It still works great after all this time. It has popped 8lbs of popcorn nearly every month for the last 5 years and still runs like new. I originally bought it as a backup for my vintage popper, which still works. This one is smaller, faster, and more consistent so it became the go to popper. I like the thermal switch that shuts it off if it gets too hot. It automatically resets once it cools down which is quite handy. For the money this is probably the best small appliance I've ever purchased. ... show more

Great product!
Color: Red Number of Items: 1
This is a fantastic product. It gives lots of popcorn with very few left over kernels. When I first tried it ran for 5 seconds and stopped. I thought oh no I received a damaged one. But then I removed the plastic top and poured out the kernels, then turned it over and gently but firmly banged it on my countertop and a kernel came out. I reset and it has worked fine since then. So don't give up on this popcorn popper. ... show more

This was a big hit for my 10 year old, he loves the result
Color: Yellow Number of Items: 1
My son loves popcorn, and I didn't want to be using the microwave ones. I'm 47, and have fond memories of a neighbor whose family used to watch a lot of movies in the late 70's and early 80's, and would invite me over. They always had popcorn, and for the last several years, were using a hot air popper to make it. So I thought I'd wax nostalgic and pick one up to see if they worked well. This one I had mixed results at first. The old ones I remember from my ancient youth had air outlets that spun the kernels around like a cyclone, rather than doing what this one does, and blow hot air straight up. So I found that this has a tendency, when the first few kernels start popping, to send up a bunch of unpopped kernels during the beginning of the popping. As more kernels pop and the chamber fills, the unpopped ones finally stop coming out. It's amazing how quickly it runs through them all though once it's going. The statement by the manufacturer of the speed of popping is NOT exaggerated. And it's amazing how much popcorn that measuring cup they have will make when it's filled to the fill line. I've since learned to NOT use anywhere near that much, especially when making it for my 10 year old son, who doesn't go through THAT much popcorn in a single sitting. The top does get quite hot to the touch. My trick is to have a small bowl or cup that I hold under the opening to catch those unpopped kernels when they start coming out at the beginning, and once the bulk of the popcorn starts popping, then I let it go to the bowl. I wish the opening was pointed more downward, since towards the end, I usually get things flying out horizontally across the kitchen for the last bit of popping, much like the first few do at the beginning of popping. Nothing more startling than having the hot kernel land on your bare feet... But again, some judicial use of something to "block" things in the late stages as I do in the early stages alleviates that problem. All in all, while it's not perfect, it DOES work well. If you work around those issues that crop up, it does its job well, and quickly. Now I just have to find a good butter or oil sprayer, and a good salt to use. ... show more
