Fantastic, fluffy popcorn every time
I was a little sceptical about just how good a silicone tub could be, but after having melted a couple of plastic tubs, or cleaning the microwave after kernels had exploded through cling film, or throwing away half the kernels as the glass bowl was too thick, I thought it was worth a try.Well - I don't usually write reviews, but this thing is fantastic. Every time used I have had a bowl brimming with fluffy popcorn in under 3 minutes, with very little wastage. If you like popcorn, you'll love this.

Hugely overpriced thing that burns hands
This thing is total rubbish, I bought it based on some reviews but how wrong I was believing it could make good pop corn. First of all it gives pop corn strong silicone artificial smell, it also burns your hands while taking out as it gets really hot, pop corn does not pops as it should, comparing to ready one in a paper bag. Im returning it for so many reasons not to mention £19 price is simply rip off. Do not bother.

Perfect, no guilt snack.
I bought this popcorn maker based solely on all its great reviews and was not disappointed! It does seems a lot of money for what it is but it works perfectly every time. It can be popped in the dish washer for easy cleaning, although to be honest it would only take a second to wash in the sink. I looked online for some simple seasoning recipes and made a couple up in bulk, so making a low calorie snack would be simple and quick. My favorite is equal measures of chilli powder, sea salt & coconut sugar. I melt a drop of coconut oil in the bottom of the bowl (in microwave) for a couple of seconds, then mix a teaspoon or two of this seasoning in the oil with the popcorn kernels and microwave for 2.5mins (however stop cooking when there is over 10 seconds between popping). Perfect every time!

Popcorn pops good in this tub
I'm trying to give healthy snacks for my family and have been trying various ways of cooking popcorn - on the stove, microwaved etc. I never liked the mircowavable bags from supermarkets because they had added salt or sugar.I tried microwaving kernals in various containters with disappointing results, mostly that the kernels didn't pop or if they did it was very lack lustre with small butterfly pops.I've been very impressed with this product for the following reasons:-The container is - easy to clean - easy to store because it folds up. - you can add flavourings without calories being compromised. - it's a serving bowl as well as a cooking bowl. -Most importantly, there's something about the design of this product that makes the popcorn come out consistently good.We're looking for weight loss snack alternatives and this does it for us.

Perfect results
This popcorn maker is a simple idea but works really well. I use about 50g of corn, pour some olive oil on top of it and microwave it until it stops popping. Then add some salt or nutritional yeast powder and the popcorn is delicious. I've tried the sweet recipe that came with the bowl only once and I wasn't impressed with the results (the sugar burned in places and the popcorn wasn't properly coated), but I might try it again and try to coat the corn better before popping.

Well made device and easy to use
Used twice so far, and no issues.Just needs a small amount of popping corn at the bottom (50g to 100g) and no need for oil or anything else (although a spoon of oil would be required for salt or sugar to stick to the corn).I put it in the microwave oven for 2.5 to 3 min (at 1000w power), and pretty much all corn pops.Transparent lids does not rest on the top, but in the middle, and comes up progressively, being pushed by the popcorn.Easy to clean, and no smell of silicon once cleaned.I like the fact that it can be stored away collapsed, only taking a third of the vertical space.

It Works!
Bought this on a deal at £4.76 and was very sceptical whether it would work. It arrived in a well presented box wrapped in tissue paper. After washing the unit my wife followed the instructions and all can say is perfect, crunchy and flavoursome popcorn. Simply put it Works! For the price it was a bargain. Truth be told I think I would have paid upto £12.99. Going forward no more oily pans to wash and I would most definitely recommend this Popcorn Maker.

it pops corn
Some reveiws on this made me laugh, someone described washing it up,as ' herding cats ' ! Anyway, I found the product simple to use and did the job it stated. It popped the corn fine. Bit expensive for what it is . You have to experiment what works for you,in terms of not burning popcorn, I burned 9 popcorn pieces on my first try,but bought the time down 30 secs and then it was fine,any unpopped kernals ,just add them in again and give them another quick blast. As for washing up.....it was like definitely like herding cats,very very easy, (you put down some felix cat food and the cats all comply....as for the bowl, I just gave it a soapy wash and it was fine ,very easy) So yep, what more can I add? Don't over fill it. And nice it's BPA free. Enjoy your popcorn everyone 😁
