We’ve had this popcorn machine for about two years now, and it’s still working perfectly. It’s been a great addition for family movie nights. What I liked: • Reliable performance: Still works just as well as when we first got it • Great popcorn: Makes that classic movie theater-style popcorn • Easy to use: Simple operation, no complicated setup • Fun for the family: Adds a fun “theater” feel to movie nights at home Things to consider: • Takes a little cleaning after use (as expected with popcorn machines) • Make sure not to overfill for best results Overall: This is a great investment if you enjoy movie nights at home. Durable, easy to use, and makes delicious popcorn every time.

We recently purchased this popcorn popper for a movie night birthday party, and it was an absolute hit! The popcorn it made was delicious, perfectly popped, and had that authentic movie theater taste that everyone loves. It really added to the fun and festive atmosphere of the party. Although the popper was a little smaller than I had anticipated, it still performed wonderfully. It was able to keep up with the demand, providing fresh batches of popcorn quickly and efficiently. The compact size actually turned out to be a plus, as it didn’t take up too much space on the snack table. The design is charming and user-friendly. It was easy to operate and clean, making the whole experience hassle-free. Watching the popcorn pop was entertaining for both kids and adults, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to the evening. Overall, this popcorn popper exceeded our expectations and became a star attraction at the party. I highly recommend it for any movie night or gathering – it’s sure to be a crowd-pleaser! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This popcorn maker is awesome. The kids absolutely love it, and the smell of fresh popcorn fills the house just like a movie theater. It was super easy to set up. I had it ready to go in about 5 minutes. It is a great size too. Big enough to make plenty of popcorn for the family, without taking up a ton of counter space. We used it at a backyard party last night, and it was a huge hit with everyone in the neighborhood. Definitely a 10 out of 10 purchase.

This machine is made with fragile plastic materials, but the Westbend stirring pot part works great and this machine makes great popcorn just like the movies. I use the Flavocol Salt and the butter flavor coconut oil. I have made several batches so far and it is interesting that the standard yellow popcorn pops up fluffier and more flavorful than the so-called premium popcorn do. It says that in the instruction booklet. It is an attractive little machine that fits on my countertop. The only issue I have with it is the rather flimsy feeling plastic material the cabinet is made of. So far I have not had any cracking or breaking issues, but you do have to be gentle with it as things are glued together and the stir-pot itself is affixed to the inside plastic side panels with what appears to be epoxy tape. I clean it after each use by dropping the stir-pot and wiping it, the floor and the side panels out with a damp rag. It takes actually less time to do that than washing an oily pan from the stove top. The nice thing is that from start to finish it takes about 4 minutes to complete a batch and the corn is just like movie popcorn. One thing you have to be careful with is to not put more than 2 tbsp of oil in the popper because more than that will splatter out and make a few melt-pits on the front panel. The kernel catcher that collects the unpopped kernels through the grate on the floor of the machine is just a thin plastic insert that is subject to melt pits from the hot kernels. The advantage here is that you get no unpopped kernels to ruin your expensive dental work in your bowl!

Awesome little machine just tried it out don’t forget too add some oil with kernels I almost did very easy to clean after use

replaced our old west bend popcorn machine that we had for 12+ years, love this brand.. fits perfectly on the countertop! fiance no longer has to make popcorn because i'm thrilled to do it

I consider this a starter kit because I didn't know what I was looking for when I bought it. Now I wish I had spent the extra $50 and purchased one with a warmer. As with any review I do, here are the pros and cons for me: Pros • Affordable • Pops fast • Easy to use • Looks festive Cons • Popcorn comes out semi-warm, but because there is no warmer to keep it warm… by the time you sit down it is cold (this is the biggest issue for me) • Not a lot of room in the opening. So, if you have big hands, it’s hard to get the popcorn, butter, etc into the kettle as well as scooping out the popcorn • No internal light • Only one switch which controls the kettle and the stirrer (other brands have separate switches for them as well as a switch for a warmer) • No auto-shut off. You have to sit by it and wait to turn it off or else it will burn

Works perfect for our small family of 4! We use it multiple times a week with no problems.

Me encantó, las palomitas están listas muy rápido y no quedan granos sin abrirse, quedan deliciosas. Además la limpieza es práctica porque todas las piezas son fáciles de desmontar. 🍿

Schandalig. Ik had de West Bend Popcorn Machine order vrijwel direct weer geannuleerd, maar dit werd genegeerd en een dag later is deze alsnog naar mij verzonden. - Aan de vele stickers op de doos kun je zien dat deze al meerdere keren geretourneerd was. - Een gebroken stuk plastic van de binnenkant onderin, lag los buiten de verpakking in de doos. - De aansluiting van het roerstaafje bovenin zit helemaal scheef. - Het onder klepje onder de deur past niet goed. - Bijzonder slecht afgewerkt, of behoorlijk toegetakeld. Dit is moedwillig naar de klant gestuurd om te dumpen. De retourservice is in Nederland onbekend en dus wordt ook nog verwacht dat je dit op eigen kosten naar de UK retourneert. Schandalig.

Cumple con la función y y fácil de usar y limpiar Lo recomiendo

Great popcorn maker - works as expected. Similar to other comments about it feeling cheap with the amount of plastic, although, given how much things are nowadays, I’m not surprised. I still love this popcorn maker and don’t regret buying it.
