4.5 qt. Blue Popcorn Popper

Honestly, love this popcorn machine! I was scared it would be cheaply made or something would be wrong with it due to the price being so low but it's honestly such a great purchase! No regrets at all! There is a little slot for the butter to be placed on top to distribute it along the popcorn, but honestly when we put it on there, it didn't evenly distribute the butter, we weren't sure if we just didn't use enough butter or what but so we just squirted it on the popcorn after it was done popping! Also, it's clear so you can watch the popcorn pop which my kids absolutely loved! Also, the clear bowl once you are finished, popping the popcorn, you can turn upside down and use as a bowl to eat it out of as well. All in all an amazing purchase, and a great popcorn machine!

I like that it's easy to assemble and you get to watch the popcorn pop and it smells divine and easy clean up!! Yay!!! Oh and the lid doubles as a bowl!!! How cool is that!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm loving how everything you need is all in this set (besides the kernels and such). The lid is also a bowl and the removable piece on the bowl can be used for measuring/dumping in the kernels! Making the popcorn is quick and easy with the popcorn maker! You can prepare the popcorn several ways, but we simply added some theater popcorn oil to the bottom, throw in the kernels and begin popping! I will say, we will probably add a little more stuff to it next time, using just the theater butter wasnt enough, but you experiment and learn what you do/dont like! The process is rather quick, didnt take long to pop and it popped perfectly, no burnt pieces! When done popping, just simply flip the whole unit over and you got yourself a bowl of popcorn! My daughter had a blast preparing her popcorn!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a bit skeptical at first, but all doubts aside this cute popcorn maker does what it is supposed to do. The stirring rod can easily be removed for cleaning. I love that it popped all the kernels and did not burn or leave them unpopped.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Takes longer than popcorn in the microwave but definitely worth the wait. I was very excited about the butter melting feature on the top. The benefits of using this popper allow you to really customize your popcorn how you like it. Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We loved our new Rise by Dash Stirring Popcorn Popper because it honestly makes delicious and fresh popcorn for pennies on the money, such a good value. It is so easy to use, as I just added a small amount of kernels, a little oil, and press the Power Button, and whala! The Rise by Dash Popcorn Popper is a true winner in making it easy to make a lot of popcorn at one time. I was also happy that I was able to add some delicious butter, and also tried it with making caramel popcorn balls! Great product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has been a fun kitchen tool to use with my kids! They enjoy watching the popcorn pop and eating it! So far it has turned out great every time and no burnt popcorn. The machine is easy to use and clean. Two points I will make are don't put too much oil in and soften the butter first. If you put too much oil in it will come out the sides when you flip the popcorn over. Also, I softened the butter before placing it on the top because I didn't think it would melt. We are loving this thing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son had so much fun helping and watching this popcorn get made! It takes about 4minutes for it to heat and steam up enough to start popping but once it gets going, it goes!! We had very little kernels left unpopped by the end of it. They turned out evenly cooked and I was impressed! I will say it's best to use little butter initially as more hinders the process of popping.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I usually use an air popper to make popcorn but it can leave it a little soggy once you add toppings. I was surprised with how easy this popcorn machine was to use. I just added a little bit of oil, kernels, and placed butter on top. The result was so yummy! The popcorn was fluffy and full of flavor. One dissapointment, however, is that the popcorn started to burn before it was done popping. It could have been user error and I just need to figure out the right amount of oil to add. Also, it is a little messy to clean up but totally worth it!

We've only had for four months and the plastic lid/bowl has already cracked by the handle. It's starting to become unsafe to use.
