5.0 out of 5 stars great popcorn popper, December 31, 2007

By	J. Cartwright (Sevierville, Tn USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I received the Back to Basics stainless steel stovetop popcorn popper as a Christmas gift from my husband. I have used it twice already and both times all but two kernels of popcorn popped. The popcorn is not tough and it is very flavorful without using a lot of butter. The recipe I used is as follows: 3 tbs. peanut oil
2 tbs. butter
1/2 c. popcorn
popcorn salt to taste
Heat oil in popper over med. high heat then add butter and popcorn. Lightly coat popcorn kernels with salt. Stir until popping is almost done and pour into bowl and enjoy.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not what you'd expect, July 27, 2008

By	Terry L. Zrust "redone" (Thornton, CO United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I thought this would be a great replacement for our aluminum whirly popper that one of my kids liberated when they moved away. Alas, I've been sadly disappointed. The lid absolutely does not stay closed, despite all sorts of adjustment attempts. So one has to learn how to turn the "stirrer" with one hand and hold the handle (plus hold the lid closed) with another hand. Plus, it is slower to heat up and weighs a lot more than my old whirly. Lastly, I've had various of the riveted parts fall off and one of the wood knobs split in two. All of this with fairly light use.

So....I'm going back and ordering the good 'ole aluminum whirley again.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best one available to make good ol' fashion popcorn, January 14, 2008

By	Jackie (California) - See all my reviews

This popper is the one I should have bought in the beginning. I chose the less expensive one first but the plastic gear between turn handle and internal rotary paddle got stripped. Heat and plastic are not a compatible combination. The Back to Basics version has a metal gear, making this popper well worth the few extra dollars.
