Pros & Cons
Pros
Not a big hassle. No burnt kernels, easy to use and clean, quick popping action. I only wish it had a switch. Hopefully it lasts for many years.
The hamilton-beach 73400 hot air popcorn popper is great! Works great. Produces a very good amount of popcorn using the cap as a measure. Fluffy, delicious and easy use/clean. This popcorn maker is fantastic!
Heats fast, pops the corn fast. Pops a tonne of pop corn, perfect for gluttonously devouring. The popcorn kernels come out light a fluffier than the microwave.
Cons
After 6 months of occasional uses it stopped popping. After aproximately 30 uses the non stick coating is wearing away. It made good popcorn while it lasted but for the price and only lasting a couple of months, i have to say avoid.
It's made in china. Cannot even just about screw back on. Piece of junk. It’s going in the trash.
I changed my rating from 5 to 1.

Difficult to get flavour right which i dont think is the machines fault but perhaps the process itself or the kernels i’ve chosen
