Got tired of unpopped kernels, my microwave is in storage and I'm not real handy with a stove anyway. I went to Amazon looking for an air popper, but when I saw the reviews for this one I changed my mind. It has a clamp-on top with a simple wooden handcrank, and everybody says "No unpopped kernels". We'll see tonight.

Less than twenty bucks, free two-day delivery. I ordered it Tuesday, it came this morning. Can't complain, so far.

No picture or link?

I did use it last night. Worked fine, made so much I have leftovers for today and maybe tomorrow. I won't know about unpopped kernels until I reach the bottom of the huge bowl, but it does taste just fine.

That looks cool....put plenty of sugar on mine

frau kaleun · 04-14-12, 07:18 PM

Sugar on popcorn?

"The horror... the horror...."

Sending back radio I just ordered as it can't tune in anything without static when I try to use it in my office, which is where I need it to work. Replacing it with something a bit more pricey that I hope will be better.

He was joking...I hope.

Update: The second time I used it I put in a little less. Ended up with a perfect bowl - no burns, not one unpopped kernel, and one of the plastic cogs on the spinner broke.

Emailing the maker now.

You should have oiled the cogs....with sugar

No better reason, unless you're in Carotio's line of work

I thought you'd got it just for taking better pictures of your collection, die-cast not Carotio's...
