Presto 04820 PopLite Hot Air Popper 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.

Nothing last forever.Presto has been making this popper for a long time. I bought one about 15 years ago, and use it maybe once a week. Makes wonderful popcorn, evenly popped, no burning, no oils, just great popcorn. You do need to put a big bowl under it and turn the bowl, but with this slight attention, there is no mess.The popper died last night -- motor burned out. But how many consumer devices last 15 years? I got my money's worth.So, I'm buying another one today. Why try something else when this works so well?

After looking for air poppers for a while I finally happened upon this one. We were tired of microwave and wanted something healtier. This machine is great. It uses only 1/2 cup of kernels which can be measured with the built-in cup and produces a HUGE bowl of popped corn and there is very little waste. It's a wonderful product and it's much more cost-effective than microwave popcorn too. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Received my popcorn machine. Used slightly less than half a cup. Made more popcorn than two bags of the microwaved bagged popcorn I was previously using. Took two and a half minutes like the instructions said. Two ... TWO kernels didn't pop. THAT'S IT !!! No flying hot kernels came flying out. After it was done, I let it sit for a few minutes to cool down and put it away. One word came from the two of us ... WOW !!!
