Product description

Product Description

Best hot air popper! Convenient, natural and light! Pops regular or gourmet popping corn with hot air, not oil, for a healthy, low calorie treat ! Fast! Pops up to 18 cups of gourmet corn in less than 2 1/2 minutes. Leaves virtually no un-popped kernels. 120 volts, 60 Hz only.

Amazon.com

Plug in Presto’s PopLite and the party begins. In less than 2-1/2 minutes you’ll have up to 18 cups--two large bowlfuls--of fluffy popcorn with virtually no unpopped kernels. And because the machine uses hot air instead of oil, the resulting snack is healthier and lower in calories. That’s not to say you can’t add butter; in fact, the 1/2-cup measuring cup on top of the popper doubles as a butter melter. Simply put in the desired amount of margarine or butter (room temperature is best), and it melts from the heat produced during the popping process. The clear plastic cover and cup, which must stay on during popping so the popped corn doesn’t fly all over the room, easily remove for hand cleaning with warm, soapy water. No other clean-up is required. While a few unpopped kernels spring out the chute as the machine begins to heats up, the chute does a good job of directing the popped corn into a bowl. The popper measures 14 by 9 by 6-1/2 inches, and is identical to Presto’s Orville Redenbacher Hot Air Corn Popper except for color and logo. Presto covers 1 year limited warranty. --Ann Bieri NOTE: State of California Proposition 65 requires that we include the following warning: WARNING!

This popcorn machine gets a little wild spewing out unpopped kernels at the start and at the end of a popping cycle. Not a deal breaker. That said, It does seem to pop the corn quickly but I have yet to find a popcorn that tastes good after popping using this machine. The hulls are tough and the popcorn has no crunch. I know the popcorn is ok because I popped some using the old fashioned stovetop method using oil and it was delicious.
I used Franklins Popcorn, Wisconsin Birch and Jiffy Pop jumbo pop. The Jiffy pop was the worst, Wisconsin Birch was the best.

Based on my experience, I would say that for whatever reason, the average popcorn does not taste good or have the proper texture after popping in this machine. Perhaps one needs to use a special popcorn. Surprised at my experience when so many people raved about this machine. I am going to try Orvilles popcorn and if that is good, I will change this review. Sorry Presto

The popcorn machine worked well in the beginning. However, after a year it melted like the wicked Witch in the wizard of Oz. I couldn't believe it. Then I wrote a review warning parents to be safe and amazon denied the post. My son was using the machine and could have been burned. I've owned the ppopcorn machine for one year. Be careful!

Well this might be a best seller but I sure made a mistake in buying one. I'll have to admit the popcorn was good while the machine worked. It died today after only a month of use. What really concerned me was the smoke that was being emitted. It set all the alarms off in the house having me rush to pull the plug. However, it did give a warning it was going bad. It would start and then stop and then really take off. I really can't say I was that disappointed after all I only paid a little over $20 dollars. You really can't expect something that would last a long time for that amount of money. I was expecting maybe 3 or 4 months of use however. Wouldn't recommend.

Works well until the motor dies (I’ve owned two)

Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2018

Verified Purchase

My family watches a movie every Saturday night and lots of popcorn is a must. The first Presto air popper we bought survived about 5 months, then one Saturday I got a little over zealous with the popcorn and hit to close to the line, when I turned it on, it burned out. Since I blamed myself I bought another one thinking it would be fine if I just stayed well below the line, which I did. After using it about 10-12 times, I plugged it in and instantly the motor burned out - it barely made a noise just dead. I really like this popper when it works, but I just can’t keep buying it only to have it die.

Solid popcorn maker, but needs better shut-off design

Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2017

Verified Purchase

This is a good popcorn maker. You simply put the popcorn kernels in the machine, plug it in, and place a large bowl under the output area. You get freshly popped popcorn that you can season however you want. It does throw some hot kernels at first before the popcorn starts popping, so you do have to be careful with your bowl placement and clear them out if you don't want to run into them when eating. Overall, however, we have found that it pops almost all of the kernels each time, and clean up has been a breeze.

One small durability note, the butter softener on top seems to have some trouble with the heat generated by the unit. The butter does not completely soften (unless you soften it first in the microwave, which I think kind of defeats the point), but somehow the corner of our butter softener dish has melted. Not sure how or when it happened as we don't use that tray very often, but now we have to maneuver it a bit to get it to fit in its slot. Not a deal breaker by any means, but something to be aware of.

The biggest problem I have with the unit is that there is no off switch; you just have to unplug the unit. Other reviews seem to suggest that it has an auto-off feature, but ours has never turned off on its own, which means you are pulling a live plug out of the wall. Not the safest thing in the world, so make sure you are not letting kids do this on their own unless they know how to handle the plug properly to avoid potential sparks.

We have made a ton of popcorn since we purchased this unit in February (we went through a bit of a popcorn craze after purchasing it), and it has shown no signs of burning out as other reviewers have found. Overall, we are pleased.

Problems

Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2019

Verified Purchase

I usually wait a couple of months to review a product but this one needs to be reviewed now. I bought this because my boyfriend loves popcorn and normally buys the pre-made bags. I thought that this might be a better option. Couple of problems:

1. Popcorn kernels pop out all the time. I've tried angling it back but they still come out, at very hot temperatures. It's almost a game to catch and pop them back in without feeling the heat.
2. It takes longer to wait for them to pop than it does to make a pre-made bag in a microwave.
3. Since it takes such a long time for the kernels to pop, it actually melted the butter dispenser on the top.

We're still keeping it because of the few kernels that don't pop from the microwave but we probably won't use it as our main popcorn provider.

Melted the hood

Poor material choice for the hood. First time I used it the butter didn't melt enough. Second time I put the butter in before the corn and after 2 minutes it was mostly melted. I then attempted to remove the scoop... Attempted. It had melted to the hood. Doubtful I'll be using it again.

Wow! Did my daughter and I have a blast making popcorn together. It was pretty much ready to go right out of the box. It worked way better than I thought it would. I am extremely happy with this purchase. Also because it is an air popper, not only is it healthier to eat but its simple to clean.

Reviewed in Canada on April 7, 2019

My wife is a popcorn connoisseur. I gave her this popper for Christmas. She used it about 6 times and she had issues with it not seeming to work properly but persisted to use it. It jammed and caught fire. Sparks and smoke everywhere.
I called Amazon and was told I would need to go to the Mf for warranty. I called Presto and they told me that they couldn't give me any warranty because we live in Canada. I call Amazon and they were AMAZING. They offered me a new unit or my money back. I chose the new unit and they send it with 2 day delivery. When we received the new one we realized that the original was missing a screen over the heater and motor. It was faulty not a bad popper. Our new one works fantastic and we would have no trouble recommending the Presto popper or our Amazon purchase.

The last popper you will buy.

Reviewed in Canada on January 18, 2020

Verified Purchase

I have owned many poppers on my many years wandering this earth and assumed they were all the same.

I mean... hot air+kernels=popcorn. How hard can it be?

Apparently... VERY! I have had four popcorn poppers and all of them were possessed by Satan... or at the least some evil spirit. I mean... EVIL machines that throw popcorn everywhere except the bowl and then toss kernels into the bowl only for them to explode in the bowl throwing popcorn all over the floor.. It turned me off to popcorn they were so awful to use so I decided to finally buy the best rather then the cheapest.

Oh! I never knew that popcorn poppers actually WORK! Plug in... pop...pop...pop... enjoy. Who knew!

Machine came with a warning about machine exposing to chemicals including styrene, blablabla
Yes, I am sure it's most lightly perfectly safe and such chemicals are so low it won't do anything at all.
Yes, I am sure other popcorn machines may also have the same issue, yet don't put a label.
But, with that said, wife does not want it and will be returning it.

Contains BPA

Reviewed in Canada on December 4, 2019

Verified Purchase

I'm disappointed with this machine. Not because it leaves quite a few unpopped kernels compared to my old machine, but because I didn't realize it contains BPA which I didn't realize until receiving the product, so ultimately I will have to replace it. Have already gone through cancer treatment and popcorn was supposed to be part of a healthy diet. This machine gets so hot that even after a few uses it still smells like hot plastic when in use. Was busy and missed the window to return it, otherwise I would have.

Could be better

Reviewed in Canada on March 3, 2020

Verified Purchase

I'm satisfied with this product but it could be much better.

- There is no ON/OFF switch
- The machine gets very hot. You cannot make back-to-back batches, you must wait for the machine to cooldown first, otherwise the plastic gets dangerously hot.
- The machine is only good at making a certain size batch. Too little and the kernels fly everywhere, too much and the machine overheats
- This machine does not waste many kernels BUT it is very messy. A lot of the kernels that fly into your bowl are so hot that they explode inside the bowl, sending popcorn everywhere. The popcorn bowl sometimes looks like a minefield.
- The machine is too light and moves around on the counter during operation. You need to keep an eye on it or hold it down.

The popcorn taste decent though so 3 stars.

Very powerful popcorn maker

Reviewed in Canada on November 22, 2018

Verified Purchase

Powerful popcorn maker....1475 watts.... You must use 1/2 cup of popcorn... too little and they fly around a exit the machine before they pop..... so quantity is important for a good pop.

Only negative is that it does not have an on/off switch.... you plug it in, and boom, it starts. Not sure how safe that is.

This popcorn maker is worth every penny. It's fast and powerful. I had bought 2 other popcorn makers (not from Amazon) but returned both because neither did a decent job of popping the popcorn. I didn't think that popping corn was such a difficult task for popcorn makers but apparently not all models are effective. This PopLite model is awesome.

I've tried a number of air poppers including some that are highly rated but this is the first one (since the one I had many years ago which did a good job but eventually died, and which I've been trying to replace) that diees a good job of popping and doesn't spray a significant number of unpopped kernels over the countertop. It will spit out two or three but others were crazy in terms of the mess and wastage.

Good quality, great tasting popcorn

Reviewed in Canada on February 3, 2020

Verified Purchase

I just got to use mine for the first time tonight and I was very impressed.

I hadn't made popcorn for a while and bought some this weekend which I tried to make it in one of those silicone microwave popcorn makers. but my old microwave seriously does not like those So I thought it was time to break out the big guns and get a real machine. This one.

I expected it to be easy to use and it was. It does not at all bother me that there is no on or off switch. It's simole enough to plug it when it use and unplug when done. But what I did not expect was how much superior the popcorn was when popped to microwave popcorn. With the same package of popping corn kernels I had used a few days earlier, the popped kernels with the Pop-Lite were clearly larger, softer and better tasting. This machine made a superior popcorn to anything I've used in ages. I had used the same popping corn a few days earlier and it tasted alright. But with my Pop-Lite it just tasted a bit sweeter somehow. Just better tasting and softer kernels.

I only took off 1 star for something that was not ideal for me. You do have to make A LOT of popcorn at a time, by filling the measuring cup. I am the only one eating the popcorn in my house. While I can store the unused portion, I'd prefer to make just the amount I want each time.

But yes, I love my machine. It makes some great tasting popcorn imo.

I'm a real popcorn fan like many and this machine is the best hot air machine I've had so far. Heats up quickly, does a large quantity in a load and popcorn doesn't jam since it has large opening. If I were to complain about something, but it's nothing really, would be why do only 2 of the feet are rubber? It kinda moves at first.

Great popcorn!

Reviewed in Canada on April 2, 2019

We have replaced our old popcorn maker twice now and returned both units for various reasons. This one is by far the best. A great way to make "healthy" popcorn (forget that horrible microwave stuff!) Most of the kernels pop (you still have to encourage it a little at the end by shaking) but it does exactly what it should. I believe it's the same brand as the one we had before for more than 20 years. Now if it only came in red it would be perfect. :-)

Disappointed

Reviewed in Canada on May 4, 2020

I’m horrified how people don’t have an issue that there’s no on and off switch. The hot air is coming out and as you pull the plug to turn it off the electricity current is still going and I can sparks every-time; I’m afraid it’s going to catch on fire.
The kernels take so long to pop and they fly everywhere making such a mess. There’s a strong plastic smell every time I used it which stayed in the air for a while.

I was hoping with 9k reviews it was going to be decent. But putting a bag of microwaveable popcorn honestly seems like a better idea, no chance of it catching on fire and no buttery
Un-popped Kernels flying everywhere.
