Best popcorn
It may be weird to switch from movie popcorn to fresh air popped popcorn, but it's hard to go back. These are great for the healthy person in your life, or if you want a healthy treat. You choose what to put on it, which means if you have allergies, you can actually use your own butter and pick how much salt you put on! The only problem is, you can't bring it to the theater with you...

Awesome popper
Love this popper- quick and easy to use, and healthier than microwave popcorn. The whole family loves it!

Great product!
I bought this popcorn popper, to avoid all of the terrible chemicals in microwave popcorn. I like it. It is easy to use, pops great, healthy popcorn and cleans up easily. Towards the end of popping, some kernels do escape and fly out of the bowl, but my dog does not mind that, so it is not a big deal for us.

Very happy
I am very happy that I purchased this machine. The price was right, and I wanted to be able to make my own popcorn, without all the junk they put in the microwave packets. Also, being on weight watchers, I was looking for a way to get a healthy, crunchy snack...success! One thing I will mention, and this may be true of all popcorn makers, I'm left with kernels that haven't popped inside the machine. Other than that, love it!

Fast and efficient!
If you're looking for a way to make popcorn that's friendly to your waistline, the earth, and your pocketbook, this is a great option!
You can make a huge bowl in 5 minutes and top it however you like -- my favorite used to be parmesan and pepper, but now coconut oil (which melts perfectly in the warmer on the top of the machine), salt, cinnamon and a little sprinkle of powdered sugar is satisfying my sweet tooth. The only limits are your imagination!
Keep in mind that the machine does work best with a heavier kernel because light ones may fly out before they have a chance to pop. The easy solution is to make two smaller batches rather than one large one.

Super Easy!
Sleek and modern appliance. Very easy to operate with little clean up. Environmental friendly. This is the best feature of all since you purchase popcorn in one bag or container so a little goes a long way plus less packaging is involved. If you use butter don't forget to place butter in the warming cup. It heats up fast. By the time the popcorn has popped the butter is ready!
Oh one more thing-it is very easy to store. Slim and fits into any space.

Great product!!!
Received this as gift, and use it regularly. My family really enjoys they healthy and flavorful popcorn, not to mention the endless possibilities in flavors.
The actual popcorn maker is SO easy to use and pops perfect popcorn every time in about the same time it would take to make microwave popcorn. No burnt kernels, and only about 5-10 unpopped kernels max each time. Clean up is as easy as wiping it off.

Love it!
Makes great tasting healthy popcorn quickly. The ingredients are so inexpensive this unit will soon pay for itself. From the time I turn the machine on until the bowl is full is well under 5 minutes and a second batch is even quicker.

Love it!
I only wish they carried the red one. I love the on/off switch. My last popper didn't have one. I also love the semi compact size and the large amount of corn it can pop. I do recommend this Cuisinart popper to anyone who wants an excellent quality machine at a very reasonable price.

Bought it on a whim...Best idea ever!
I love popcorn. But noticed that those little 100 calorie bags are such a waste of my money and when you live alone you need to save every penny!
The design of the air popper is ingenious, small compact, just perfect for a small kitchen. I've had air poppers in the past and they're round, heavy and bulky this one is quite the opposite.
Pops popcorn in about 10 minutes and you can get super creative with what you put on it. My go to recipe is fresh parmesan cheese grated with sea salt and cracked peppercorn but the possibilities are really endless. It's so fresh and healthy since you don't use any oil in the machine.
The butter warming unit works well but here's the key, either use butter that is really soft or has been sitting out for a little while, or spend the time chopping it up before you put it in the warmer. Then by the time you're done popping it'll be melted.
I've used it 9 times in the past 8 days and stand by that this is a wonderful purchase/investment if you're a popcorn fan like myself. :)
