Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Using hot air, this popcorn popper makes a healthful, low-cal snack, converting 1/2 cup of kernels into about 3 quarts of popped corn in about 3 minutes. The removable lid on the popper's cover serves as measuring cup for kernels and, when it's in place on the cover, can also be used for melting butter with the hot air rising from the popping chamber. The 1,200-watt popper can make two batches before it needs to cool down for 10 minutes before popping more batches. The cover and lid require hand washing. The popper measures 5-3/4 inches wide, 12 inches high, and 7-3/4 inches deep and carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack
Product Description
Popcorn delivers a lot of crunchy snacking satisfaction, yet can be quite a healthy snack if you don't overdo on the butter and salt. This popper is compact because it pops the corn right into the bowl.

Wish I could give ZERO stars!,

Piece of crap. And that is being kind. Like everyone else reviewing this popper, it was horrible. Dreadful design. Managed to only pop half the corn placed in it. The rest just flew out unpopped. I used it once and returned it.
Given the consistancy of the complaints with this unit, the manufacturer either never tested it or didn't care that it was bad news. Either way, it was bad enough to make me never buy another toastmaster product.

Horrible popcorn popper... but GREAT coffee roaster,

This review is from: Toastmaster 6202 Hot Air Popcorn Popper (Kitchen)
For the love of whatever deity you hold sacred, do NOT attempt to pop popcorn in this thing. The fan is too strong, the chamber is too short, and as the kernels get ready to pop, they'll get blown into the bowl and pop there. To say it's an exciting experience is putting things much too mildly. Our dogs would have had a field day eating all the popcorn that fell on the floor if they hadn't made a quick exit when the kernels started shooting across the room.
That said, this machine is quite possibly the best way to get started roasting your own coffee at home. It's really simple; just put 1/4 pound of coffee in the popping chamber, put on the lid, turn it on, and a couple of minutes later you have absolutely THE freshest coffee you can get anywhere. For more details on this (and a source for green coffee beans), there's a site called Sweet Maria's. Go look them up. This machine is similar to the vaunted (and discontinued for decades) West Bend Poppery/Poppery II. It has decent wattage, and the fan isn't behind a screen. If you're looking to get into coffee roasting, you won't find a more economical way to do it than with this popper.

This review is from: Toastmaster 6202 Hot Air Popcorn Popper (Kitchen)
I wish I would have looked this up before I bought it. It truly sucks. More than half the popcorn didn't pop, and I felt caught in some kind of insane popcorn crossfire while it was popping - shot popcorn all over the place, popped and unpopped. It practically only makes a handful per refill. Horrid.
