Presto 04821 Orville Redenbacher's Popcorn Maker

Pros: it works

Cons: it makes a huge mess

Review: This thing is possessed! It blows popcorn all over the place, and even if you have your bowl placed directly under the spout, it STILL goes everywhere. Yeah, the popcorn tastes okay. Tastes just like all other popcorn, though. There's certainly...

Pros: Good functional design with consistent results

Cons: Cannot handle variations in yield or corn used. Expect to wear out the plug/kitchen outlet.

Review: I've had this unit a month and its better than the alternative which is unhealthy oil-popped corn on the stove or burnt bags in the microwave.
Plastic units in the microwave are a gimmick and don't work well. Pre-mixed bags from pop-secret,...

Pros: fast, easy to clean, lightweight

Cons: loud

The Bottom Line: Cheap, easy to clean and use, lightweight, makes great popcorn!

Review: My husband and I were eating a lot of microwave popcorn, and decided that it might be more cost effecient to just go ahead and buy a popper.

I grew up with an oil type popper and loved it, but I wanted something that I could use to make...

Pros: Fast, compact, quick, healthy, inexpensive popcorn maker

Cons: Sometimes shoots out un-popped kernels

The Bottom Line: If you've been wanting to eat healthier, and don't mind bland popcorn, get this popper.

Review: I am a college student, and one day I had a hankering for some popcorn. The problem, I also like to eat as healthfully as possible, so i try to avoid heavily buttered and salted popcorn. There are some low fat low salt microwaved popcorn brands out...

Pros: Great-tasting popcorn and affordable

Cons: Tough to clean

Review: I've owned this product for about 6 years. I bought it because air popping is a great alternative to microwave. It is healthier and tastes better. You have control over how much butter to use. I've never had a problem with this product. One piece of...

Pros: Inexpensive, fun, easy to use and clean up.

Cons: Can make a mess, butter could pop out if unattended.

The Bottom Line: An easy way to make a snack for the kids or for the family on movie night. Simple.

Review: Introducing the Presto Hot Air Popcorn Popper, this little unit is something else. When I first got it I had a hard time with the fact that it got hot enough to pop the corn. Well, it showed me a thing or two about popping corn and I quickly...

Pros: Great Price, Well designed and thought out.

Cons: No on/off switch, but then again it's not really needed.

Review: This is an excellent Hot Air popper at a great price. I bought the Presto 04821 on sale at Kohls for $22.00. I've seen it elsewhere for a little more or a little less depending on where you are. There is also the Presto 04820 which is even less...

Pros: Works great easy to clean

Cons: shoots popcorn out the popcorn hole if the cup isn't replacedand out the deflector

Review: I bought this thing a while ago and I've used it a lot. It's a quick easy way to make popcorn without having to add oil, and without the messy clean up. There is one downfall. The thing tends to shoot popcorn across the kitchen. I'll have a bowl in...

Pros: Pops quickly and effectively, no burnt pieces.

Cons: No on-off switch

The Bottom Line: A great popcorn popper for any air-popcorn loving family!

Review: I grew up in a popcorn loving family, so when I got married and we had some children (ok, six, to be exact!) I had a strong desire to continue that tradition. Time to watch the beloved Vikings crush the Packers? Pop up some popcorn. Going to watch a...

Pros: Popcorn lands in bowl, few unpopped kernels, delicous!

Cons: I can't find this popper in Canada! I won it on Ebay.

Review: We love this popcorn popper. It is much quieter than our last one, pops without making a mess, and makes a scrumptious bowl of popcorn. Our last popper was too hot or something because the popcorn always tasted overcooked, and the kernels were not...
