Nostalgia Air Pop Hot Air 4 oz. Red Countertop Popcorn Machine

machine is just ok

Heats up really fast and the popcorn pops fast too.

Great popcorn popper for the price! It’s as good as any other popper out there.

Nice product, you don’t need oil and just in a few minutes in done

The popper responded exactly as advertised. Easy to operate and clean.Popped all the kernels – be sure to follow instructions and heat unit beforeadded the corn.

The Nostalgia hot air popper performs well. And, I value its smooth styling and the fact that it has a dedicated on/off switch, unlike some other, more expensive poppers. The cord length is 31″ and winds up inside the base. I’ve found that it pops better if it’s allowed to warm up for a full 5 minutes first, instead of the recommended 3 minutes. After a 5 minute warm up, it pops more kernels and leaves fewer unpopped kernels, although there still are some unpopped kernels in any case. My only complaint is that the machine had an odd smell in the hot air for about 3 cycles of operation. Leaving the popper outside in fresh air, I believe helped to eliminate the odd smell. Overall? Very satisfied.

works great

Excellent hot air popper, would buy again and think I will for the kids. Can’t beat the price either.

Following the directions in the owner’s manual, I let the popper heat up for 2 minutes without kernels added and then added the popcorn. It did seem to do a better a job making the batch, leaving only a few kernels not fully popped. The on/off switch is a great idea instead of unplugging the popper by pulling the cord out of the outlet – less of a fire hazard. Did an equally good job with both yellow and white popcorn kernels. And of course, since there is no oil involved, the resulting popcorn is healthier for you. Using the enclosed scoop (loose part of the cover/chute) takes the guessing out of how much popcorn kernels to add to the popper. It can also double as a butter warmer but I have not used the scoop for that feature. The cover/chute fits well on the popper and does not get kicked off by the popped kernels. The finished product also does not seem to fly all over the place with the cover/chute in place. And of course, just wiping this unit down is all that is needed. This popper is an easy keeper, works fast, gives you a healthy snack and is very affordable. Everyone should have the one! The only negative is that it is very noisy so in a condo, I really can’t make popcorn anytime of the day or night .

It was just great! It’s easy to use & satisfies our three year olds request for popcorn without great difficulty or mess! It arrived quickly & safely. We have the identical new air pop hot air popcorn maker at our home as well, so we can join in on FaceTime with him to “share” fresh popcorn! Happy with the purchase!
