FOHERE 1400 W Red Hot Air Electric Popcorn Popper

This popcorn machine is perfect. No real need to measure. I did measure the first batch, but found it was not sufficient, so I just poured the oil and popcorn myself and had better results. However, as soon as you hear the kernels stop popping, turn it off and remove the popcorn immediately or else it may burn the popcorn. Warning, it does get very hot, so keep it away from children.

These kind of popcorn makers are better than hot air ones. This one is really nice since you can take off the top piece for ease of cleaning. Also the top bowl can be flipped easily since this piece comes off. Highly recommended.

Easy to use and a large capacity. Very easy to clean. Works great and delivers delicious popcorn. They even give you step by step instructions if you don't know how to use a popcorn popper. Plug it in, add oil, add popcorn and cover. The popper stirs the kernels to get a full popper full. Follow their recommendations and do not over fill the popper.

This is the best popper of this style I have ever used. Bought it on sale, too, so win-win for me. Only drawback is the black lid will not stay on... but you don't use it for popping., If you want to extra butter and eat from the bowl lid, could be a problem. But for our family - it is just wonderful. We don't use the lid, anyway!

I have had stir crazy poppers for well over twenty years and like them just fine, although the last iteration was a bit more awkward to use. I bought this FOHERE because it looked a bit more like the older model stir-crazy I liked. I was pleasantly surprised! This popper pops virtually every kernel and is much easier to clean because the heating surface detaches from the body of the popper. It is a decidedly improved version. A ten out of ten for sure. I highly recommend it.

This 6qt Stir Crazy is a great popcorn maker. I used a small amont of Bertolli Extra Light Olive Oil and every kernal popped up so big and fluffy. I had the first Stir Crazy in the smaller size, and was not as happy with that little guy. Seemed to run on the hot mode

This popper is similar to a West Bend popper we had that is not made any more. It would have been considerably more expensive, but Wal-Mart had it on sale. It pops a nice size batch of corn. We like the fact that the popping plate comes off for really easy cleaning. The bowl can go in the dishwasher. The popper came with measuring cups for the oil and popcorn. We will need to experiment with ratio of oil to corn; both batches we popped were just slightly scorched, which probably means we need to add a little more oil.

I would have given a 5 star but this popper states it is 1400 watts but the instruction book says it is 800 watts… I purchased because of the higher wattage. We have used the popper 3x and it pops very fast! Guessing it is the higher wattage because if you don't turn off and remove from the hot plate your corn will begin to burn.

I'm giving this 3 stars because that's an average rating for an average machine, which is precisely what this is. It's a $40 popcorn machine and, as a $40 machine, it works fine. It is not, however, a $140 machine, at least not US dollars. There's nothing special about it, certainly nothing that could ever justify the fantastical $140 price tag that somehow got assigned to it. It's really lightweight. The bowl is thin and a scratched up mess just waiting to happen. There's no form of adjustability and not even an indicator light on the switch. Nothing on it screams of particularly high quality. The only "special" feature is the way the bowl lifts off without lifting the entire machine. This might be a notable thing if the whole machine didn't weigh less than a tuna sandwich in the first place. As for complaints about the cover popping off the bottom of the bowl, that only happens if you have deformed or damaged that cap by leaving it on and letting it get heated up. Admit it. You did that, didn't you? This is pretty much the same as the old West Bend machine I bought 30 years ago, also for about $40. I certainly don't expect the longevity I got from that one, but considering that $40 isn't what it used to be either, I wouldn't expect it. I'd also caution people to order carefully. The ad for this machine is conflated with another model. I expected 1400 watts. I got 800. I expected a multi-function cooking surface with a removeable stirring rod on a unit that stacked compactly for storage. . That was the other model too. Ironically, that "better", more feature rich model had a lower MSRP as well. Bottom line is that any talk of this machine selling for over $100 on any planet is online influencer driven nonsense. But it because you like the color. Expect a $40 machine that works exactly like any other $40 machine and you won't be disappointed. Expect a great deal or anything special in terms of features, build quality or performance and you will be.

Please do not waste your money or time on this product. The first time using this, it worked okay, but the second time, the kernels never popped and it was spitting up everywhere. The product over heated and melted the cover.
