Original Whirley Pop Popcorn Machine – 3-Minute Stovetop Popcorn Maker for Home Movie Snacks & Game Night – Wabash Valley Farms – Aluminum Pot With Nylon Gears – (Silver)

Seriously the best and easiest way to make homemade popcorn. Only takes about 5 minutes start to finish and kernels pop evenly so long as you don't overfill. We love being able to make a cheap and healthy snack without using a microwave.

This has made having popcorn at home wonderful again! This popper is absolutely fabulous! It pops quickly and completely. Super easy to use and clean. The popcorn tastes like movie popcorn!

Love whirly pop! Prevents burning. Fun makes great popcorn! Better tasting than other methods.

One of my goals in life has been to be able to make Disneyland/world popcorn at home. Disregarding the fact that everything tastes better at Disney no matter what it is, Disney makes the. Best. Popcorn. Yeah, I know deep down they make it delicious and salty on purpose as a ploy to get you to buy $5 20 oz bottles of water/soda, but regardless even if you're not really a popcorn fanatic you have to admit the Disney popcorn can't be beat. Anyway, the Whirlypop makes as close as you're going to get at home without buying a whole full on popcorn cart. Almost every kernal gets popped, and 1/2 cup of popcorn is enough to satisfy my 3 young boys and me. If DH joins us we normally make 2 batches. It really is super easy, my 5 year old is the designated "whirler" and he loves it. It really only does take max 3 minutes depending on your stove to get a generous amount (guessing 7-10 cups of popped corn) of popcorn done. It's decently easy to clean with some soapy water and a sponge. My only complaint is there's no hole in the handle so I can't put it on the pot rack. My recipe is thus: Heat 3 Tbsp (one very generous spoonful) of ghee in the pot until it's hot. Add 1/2 cup popcorn kernals and roughly 1/2 Tbsp of Flavovol popcorn seasoning. Whirl until popped and serve. It's amazing. Far superior to microwave popcorn and air popped. Note you must use GHEE (clarified butter) plain butter will burn in about 30 seconds. You can also use butter flavored popcorn oil, but I find the ghee to be far superior. If you're a popcorn enthusiast or just a popcorn dabbler this is the popper for you! (You can also buy Flavovol on Amazon, but remember a LITTLE bit goes a LONG way)

I have been on a quest for the perfect popcorn popper for years. I’ve found a couple of electric poppers that have generally worked well. They feature a spinning mechanism that keeps the kernels and popped corn moving. Most of the popcorn pops, but they are often a hassle to clean. They claim to be designed to flip over and use the plastic cover as a bowl, but the plastic disk that goes over the top never stays on, causing any toppings to end up in your lap if you use the cover as a bowl. Nonetheless, they produce the best-tasting popcorn (and I know the ingredients). However, my latest electric popper randomly stopped working, which seems to be a trend. One day, it’s fine, and the next, you turn it on, and nothing happens. Due to the cleaning issue, I’ve been using microwave popcorn for the past year or so. There’s no mess to clean up other than the bowl I empty the bag into. However, it doesn't taste as good, and as we all know, microwave popcorn is linked to cancer due to its ingredients. I recently bought an air popper, thinking it would be less messy than my electric popper and wouldn’t require oil to pop. However, the air popper leaves about half the kernels unpopped and sends popcorn flying everywhere—across the counter and onto the floor, with some landing in the bowl. I crafted a tube out of aluminum foil to direct the popcorn closer to the bowl, reducing mess, and it does help more seeds to pop. But I still need two bowls: one to pop into and another to transfer the popped popcorn into so I can collect the unpopped kernels and return them to the popper for another attempt, which still yields many unpopped seeds and overheats the machine, causing it to shut off. But I finally found the perfect popcorn popper. It pops on the stove. You add oil and kernels, crank the handle, and within a few minutes, you have popcorn—AND EVERY KERNEL POPPED! It is also easy to clean. Thus, my seemingly lifelong quest for the perfect popcorn popper has ended. The Whirley Pop popcorn popper is the best popper I have ever used.

Very light weight and a little difficult to hold on to when using the crank, but otherwise the popcorn came pretty good. Easy to wipe clean too.

Works perfectly. Perfect popcorn. Would buy again...directly from the manufacturer as Amazon is charging $20 more for the same product. Wish I would have known that before ordering from here.

This was a replacement for my very old, almost ancient popcorn popper. My old one finally quit because the hinges on the lid wore out and the top didn't seal correctly. But, the popper makes great popcorn that tastes good for days after being popped! So, I sought out the exact same popper that I had been given as a gift probably over 35 years ago!!

Wedding gift!

Normaal gezien review ik niet zo vaak producten, maar voor mensen die aan het twijfelen zijn; denk geen tweemaal. Dit is gewoon een game changer.

good popper

Great popcorn

Como «máquina» para hacer palomitas en casa, es, sin duda, la mejor opción. Se pone el maíz, se añade el aceite, se pone al fuego y en un momento están hechas las palomitas. La cazuela es de aluminio, bastante fino, con lo que se calienta rápido y reparte rápido el calor, por lo que las palomitas se hacen de forma uniforme. Además, la manivela ayuda a mover el maíz dentro de la máquina y a que se hagan casi todas a la vez.
