Pros

Bought this for my wife for christmas and couldn't be happier with it. You get a lot of it for your money, and to us, it is just as good as the pricier stuff. If you move slowly and deliberate it'll work fine.

Product was delivered on time. It comes 25 tri l-paks to a box. It was packaged very well. And it takes phenomenal.

This popcorn maker is a huge hit with my daughter. We love how everything is portioned out and it tastes just like the movie theatre popcorn! The assembly instruction manual is in with the popcorn bags, and a *-nose pliers is required in step #1 and t... Read More

Instructions are in the box with the pot. The kettle slides in and out with no hassle. Turn on heat lamp and heater. With this popper, it comes out just right.

Cons

Assembly instructions are worthless. The first step requires putting the tiniest screw and locknut through a hole on two pieces that don't line up or stay together. There was no accessories sent. The contact is via email only.

Very cheap miniature and flimsy product. Horrible it ruined my sons christmas. This portrays poor quality control to me.

Quality

Easy to assemble and easy to use

The great news is the replacement machine now has an all-stainless steel interior.

Price

This is a very reasonably priced popcorn machine considering the quality and overall product.

I am currently using "at-the-movies" brand pure coconut oil at $30/gal and it is doing a great job.

Overall it is a decent unit for the price.

Saw it was on sale and had to snag it.

Shipping

Fast delivery, excellent packaging, and easy to assemble.

I sent pictures to great northern popcorn company, three days later an entirely new machine had been shipped to our home.

I ordered the popcorn made for these and the machine came a day early (which is fine) but have to wait for tomorrow for the popcorn.

Packaging/appearance

It looks great in our house and we used it for two birthday parties aready!

Comes with popcorn bags and containers, the warming light works well, it's built well, and it makes a ton of popcorn!

I also was given a box of the pre-packaged popcorn oil, kernels, and salt.

We were given a popcorn machine for christmas and also received 4 bags of these to start us off.

Competitiveness

These 8 oz poppers all function the same and likely came from the same chinese factory.

Most people go with flavacol, but i prefer sunglo seasoning salt.

There are better carts, but they cost more.
