Presto PopLite Hot Air Corn Popper

The Presto PopLite Hot Air Popcorn Popper is to popcorn what a hair dryer is to hair. Only hair doesn’t pop (maybe frays a bit) or taste all that good, even with seasoning. But the technology is the same. A blower blasts hot air, which heats popcorn and results in a healthy popcorn snack. Presto makes one of the best air popcorn poppers. And it’s a diehard that can last several years. Operation is simple. Pour popcorn in the ½ cup measuring cup, dump into popcorn maker, plug it in and watch the popcorn kernels spin and jump. You can add butter to the top of the hot air popcorn maker to melt over the popcorn as it pops. In 2 ½ minutes, you’ll have popped 18 cups of fluffy, crispy popcorn. Clean up is a breeze.

What we like about the Presto Popcorn Popper

• It’s actually faster to use this popcorn maker than it is with microwave popcorn bags.

Things to consider before purchasing the Presto hot air popcorn popper

If you’re use to the rich (and calorie-filled) flavors of microwave popcorn, you could be in for a shock to the simple popcorn flavors this popper produces. However, with simple popcorn seasonings, you can jazz up the flavor and readjust your taste buds to healthier popcorn.

Also, be prepared for flying unpopped kernels. While this is a minor nuisance, it has taken some consumers by surprise. Simply tilting the popcorn maker back a bit with a lid seems to fix this problem.

And, remember the hair dryer analogy mentioned above? This is just as loud. But only for 2 ½ minutes.
