Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Indulge in healthful snacking with this innovative microwave popcorn popper. Because it works with regular popcorn kernels, the popper eliminates the cost and wasteful packaging of microwave popcorn in a bag, as well as the high oil and salt content. Simply fill it with the desired amount of white or yellow kernels and the butter or oil of choice--or none at all for a lower-fat version, then microwave, and enjoy delicious batches of made-to-order popcorn. The unit effortlessly pops small to large batches of fluffy corn in just minutes, and it features a durable plastic base that doubles as a serving bowl, plus a vented lid that releases unwanted moisture. Even more, the bowl provides a unique bottom-rimmed design, which prevents the hot base from coming in contact with counters and tabletops. The microwave popcorn popper measures 8-1/2 by 8-1/2 by 7 inches.

This review is from: Back to Basics PC17591 Microwave Popcorn Popper (Kitchen)
I've been on a mission for the past 6 months to get off of my microwave popcorn in a bag addiction. Goodness only knows what kind of chemicals are in there. I bought an air popper, but the popcorn tastes like it's made out of styrofoam in those things. Not good. I tried the plain bag trip, but I only managed to scorch the bag and the kernels never all popped.
Now, a confession. I'm a bit of a impulse shopper. If I see something that I decide I want, I buy it. So, you mix in my failed popcorn and me being bored one night on Amazon and... I bought some weird thing to pop popcorn in the mircowave. It came in the mail, Tom raised his eyebrow at me and shrugged. I washed it and let it sit for a few days because I just knew this thing wasn't going to work. I was wrong. This thing ROCKS. I've made popcorn in it several times. I prefer my popcorn plain, so I can then add spray butter and my own seasonings. I don't like a lot of butter. ANYWAY... it leaves very few kernels unpopped and the popcorn is fresh. I have NO idea why this thing works. I don't want to know. It just does. If you are a popcorn person that wants to get rid of the expensive chemical filled nuke bags, buy this. Trust me. The only bad thing I've found is that the bowl is REALLY hot when it comes out. It says you can serve it in there, but I wouldn't risk the burns. I transfer it to a big bowl. Note: It can pop up to 1/3 of a cup of corn at a time. Yum!

I wasn't quite sure if I'd like this microwave corn popper. I was looking at a different brand I thought I preferred, but I choose this one because of the super saver shipping.
I'm glad I got this one. I really like it! I like the design, the ease of use and it's easy to keep clean. I bought 2, one for home and one for work! I love popped corn as a snack, it's healthy and filling. With this mircrowave corn popper, I save money by just using regular popcorn kernels -- any brand. And I have more control over the salt and oil content. I can leave out salt and oil all together if I choose. I recommend this Back to Basics PC17591 Microwave Popcorn Popper!! If you love Popcorn... you won't be disappointed... it's up to you how to fix it -- oil, no oil, salt, no salt, seasonings............ get creative and enjoy!

I was looking for a popcorn popper to trim some money off the grocery budget AND eat healthier popcorn.
I selected this one. I'll keep it short: This thing works great! I used 1/3 cup of organic popcorn with (2) tablespoons of oil. Set the microwave on high for 3 minutes. Perfect, (although I might set it at 2:50 next time.) Added some salt and it was great. This popped just about the exact same amount as a bag of store-bought microwave popcorn. There was NO plastic smell, which some claim to have had. In a world where everything is over-hyped, this thing actually lives up to it! BUY ONE! (Even the packaging was extra good)
