Product Description:
Heats popcorn using hot air for dry, healthyand delicious popcorn / As Seen On TV
Amazon.com Review:
Plug in Presto's PopLite and the party begins. In less than 2-1/2 minutes you'll have up to 18 cups--two large bowlfuls--of fluffy popcorn with virtually no unpopped kernels. And because the machine uses hot air instead of oil, the resulting snack is healthier and lower in calories. That's not to say you can't add butter; in fact, the 1/2-cup measuring cup on top of the popper doubles as a butter melter. Simply put in the desired amount of margarine or butter (room temperature is best), and it melts from the heat produced during the popping process. The clear plastic cover and cup, which must stay on during popping so the popped corn doesn't fly all over the room, easily remove for hand cleaning with warm, soapy water. No other clean-up is required. While a few unpopped kernels spring out the chute as the machine begins to heats up, the chute does a good job of directing the popped corn into a bowl. The popper measures 14 by 9 by 6-1/2 inches, and is identical to Presto's Orville Redenbacher Hot Air Corn Popper except for color and logo. Presto covers the PopLite with a two-year warranty. --Ann Bieri

- Very Nice Popper
This popper does indeed work extremely fast.Don't over fill with kernals, that is, don't go beyond the line they recommend.That alone will give you a big bowl of popcorn.
My only criticism is what others have mentioned; there is no on/off switch.
Other than that, nice product and nicely priced.

- air popcorn popper
I read the other reviews before purchasing this item. I think it is a good value. The only problem I had was that the top flew off the first time I used it (without butter in the top), and seemed a bit loose, so I have since weighted it down. I have not had any problems with popcorn going anywhere but into the bowl. Really fast results. I have had no leftover kernels. Air popped corn is certainly not as tasty as oil popped corn or microwave popcorn, and salt does not cling, but it is obviously healthier ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent popper and excellent price
I read the reviews on Amazon before I purchased this popper.Initially I got the impression the popcorn would be dry, so I first bought the "Stir-Crazy" unit.It works well, but requires oil and is a "pain" to clean.I wanted to try healthy popcorn, so I purchased the air popper.Just follow the directions and it will make good popcorn each time.On the first batch of popcorn, use less than a half a cup of popocorn.It will be warm for the second batch and can handle a little more than a half a cup ...

- Terrible product.
Pros
- Automatically feeds the dog, who's able to scavenge popcorn this thing throws everywhere but the bowl.
- Some popcorn is edible and actually finds its way into the awaiting bowl.
Cons
1- Popcorn goes Everywhere floor, counter, sink, face of bystanders.
2- Many Raw kernels ejected prior to popping.
3- Yellow lid is flimsy, and does not attach securely to base.
4- Popped corn frequently 'logjams', throwing the flimsy lid off and causing popcorn fountains ... Read More
