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!

I survived the Presto PopLite Hot Air Popper!

ByBeccaTOP 500 REVIEWERon January 6, 2017

Package Quantity: 1Verified Purchase

I ordered this 01/03. On the eve of 01/04, I read the reviews about it shooting hot unpopped popcorn kernels, the top melting, and billowy smoke. Then I tried cancelling online plus calling Amazon customer service. They said it was on its way, would try and stop it, but if they weren't able to, I could just send it back for a refund. When I got it today, I just decided to try it and see how it goes.

There are some things you should know:

1. There is no On/Off. If you have it plugged in, it is hot and heating. It comes with a red slip that warns, if you have it heating without popcorn in it, it can damage/melt the cover. It's possible this could be why some have reported melting. You don't preheat this. Before you plug it in, everything needs to be ready. The popcorn needs to be in there and the butter warmer on top.

2. It only runs 2.5 min or so for a batch. Refrigerated butter won't melt enough in that time. You have to use soft butter in the butter melter or butter that has been softened in the microwave.

3. If you add popcorn over the fill line, YOU WILL BE SORRY. It will overheat, smoke, and shut off. You must be extremely careful not to overfill it.

4. If you add a really small amount, you'll get more unpopped kernels that will spit out while it's warming. I put a metal strainer under it instead of a large bowl. On the bright side, hot unpopped kernels don't shoot across the room or anything. You just get a some that spit out into your bowl you've placed under it.

With all that, you might be surprised I gave it a 4. I did because I had fun making it and the popcorn was delicious. If you buy this, just be aware there are certain rules in using this and you need to abide by them. I've decided to keep this.

Product may cause injuries

ByKevin Suehron August 2, 2015

Package Quantity: 1

I would not recommend this product. It is prone to hot corn kernels flying out of the machine and across the counter/room. I have read other reviews which stated the same. My experience was that kernels flew out of the machine, hitting my son on the neck and causing 2nd degree burns.

I contacted Presto asking for a full refund on the product. I was offered a replacement which I was not interested in. I was then offered the amount it was currently being sold for which was approximately $7.00 less than what I paid. I could receive the full amount but only after providing proof of purchase. I was insulted at that point. To make me jump thru hoops to get an additional $7.00 after my son was injured by their product is an example of horrible customer service. Ann told me she hasn’t heard anything negative about the product or anything like this happening before. I considered that a CYA statement. Upon my filing a complaint with the Consumer Safety Product Commission I saw other similar complaints about people being burned, pics included.

I would avoid this product from this company. Don’t just go by the positive reviews, read the negative ones (which Ann also wasn’t aware of???).

Excellent if you use it correctly.

Bystargazeron March 19, 2014

I bought this back in March 2013. I LOVE it! It does not have an On Off switch so I plug it into a Powerstrip. Some people complain that it burns up toward the end of popping. The trick is to turn it off, via the powerstrip, before it is done popping. Like when there are about 5 left to pop. The heat inside will continue to pop the leftover seeds and you wont have any thing burning. Dont pull the power cord off the wall to turn it off because it will spark. Mine is still going strong and running perfectly. I got it because I learned that microwave popcorn is a bit unhealthy. All that salt and butter. Also, the plastics and chemicals they use on the popping bags come off onto the popcorn with the heat of the microwave. Air popped is healthier and to me fluffy and tastier! And yes, it will shoot out some seeds every now and then across the room. So what. My dog likes to chase them down! Doesnt bother me at all...

The exercise you get from chasing your snack will help defray the calories of the popcorn.

ByAmazon Customeron April 19, 2017

Package Quantity: 1Verified Purchase

I've had other versions of air popper before and I have to say, this one disappoints me. The biggest problem is that the air flow is too energetic. It tends to blast both popped and un-popped kernels out the shoot at such velocity that they skip the receiving bowl or just blast out the other side after a quick visit. This tendency to avoid collection isn't helped by the design of the exit shute, which is way too wide unless you have a bowl the size of the Queen Mary. Thus, poorly aimed product tends to find the counter or the floor with alarming frequency. Most of the popcorn does get popped, you just have to spend time with a broom and dust pan to wrangle itback t the coral.

An easy way to eat healthier popcorn

Bywordweaveron December 19, 2015

Package Quantity: 1Verified Purchase

To provide a healthier treat for my family, we decided to move away from microwave popcorn and take better control of the ingredients/flavorings used (and say goodbye to the various chemicals/preservatives). I reviewed Amazon's extensive offering and numerous reviews (I appreciate every review - good or bad) and decided to purchase this Presto PopLite Hot Air Popper. Popping up a batch of popcorn is simple and quick (and not as loud as I was expecting). Oh, and I'm pleased with the low number of 'old maids' (un-popped kernels) that end up in our bowls. My only complaint is that the popcorn seems to cool quickly. By the time I get from the kitchen to the 'theater', the popcorn is pretty cool (the microwaved popcorn stays hotter longer). I'm one of those people who likes their french fries piping hot and won't finish them once they're cold. However, the popcorn's so tasty that I break my own rule!

Great popper. Look online for flavoring suggestions

ByUncle Geekon March 25, 2017

Package Quantity: 1Verified Purchase

Pops popcorn as it should. The fan in it is rather strong, so I graduated to a much larger bowl to catch the output easier. I switched from microwave to reduce the salt and some chemicals. If you're accustomed to microwave or stove top popcorn with flavorings, straight air popped will give you a very clear understanding of what "bland" means. I don't eat styrofoam, but I imagine that's what it tastes like. Look online for suggestions for healthy ways to add flavor the popcorn.

It does bounce some hot kernels out but I quickly figured out that if you simply tilt the popper back just a little bit while popping it is fine.
