Presto Microwave Popcorn Popper - PowerPop Multi-Popper Reviews

I received a Presto 04830 PowerPop Microwave Multi-Popper years ago as a gift and happy to see they are still making them. You can make popcorn with or without oil and either way the popcorn pops up great. The popcorn maker uses two innovations that helps  microwave radiation onto the popcorn. First is a removable base that locks onto the transparent bowl. Second is a disposable paper tray that fits into the bowl's bottom. A package of eight cups accompanies the unit, and others can be purchased separately. Each is good for about 12 batches when used with oil or 24 without oil. Both bowl and...

I've tried a few microwave popcorn poppers that were even less expensive and they always ended up cracking after a few weeks of daily use.  (I like my popcorn, OK?)  I hesitated to try the Presto Microwave popcorn popper because of the paper insert (the "concentrator") that you place in the bottom.  It seemed like just another thing that would make the process more complicated than it needs to be.  I mean, microwave popcorn in the pre-filled bags is so easy!  Except for the sodium and chemicals involved.  Anyway, I finally bought this when a friend told me that her sister loves hers.  I...

The Presto Microwave Popcorn Popper - PowerPop Multi-Popper is the greatest popcorn popper ever!  I bought mine about a year and a half ago and absolutely love it.  I was a big fan of the microwavable bags for the longest time, but then I heard stories of the so called 'popcorn lung' in the news and that was the end of the microwave popcorn for me.  So I started searching for a way to make popcorn in the microwave without a bag or oily butter and I found this.  It's great -- I can make plain organic popcorn without any harsh ingredients or chemicals in the popper and it comes out just perfect....

I was/am very pleased with Presto's PowerPop Microwave Popcorn Popper.  It is easy to use; easy to clean; can be used with or without oil, with or without salt and with or without butter.  I have been able to reuse the popping cardboard/paper inserts several times each and find they are worth the money in the long run. 

I really like that you can just pop, remove from the microwave and start eating without dirtying any more dishes.  The resulting popcorn is healthier that microwave popcorn popped in bags with the additives and artificial ingrediants.  I can control how much oil, butter and...

This popcorn maker has made life so much easier!  No more burnt bags of popcorn.  The taste this popper offers and its easy use and setup are qualities that drew me to the product originally.  Basically you use the kernals, oil, pouring both together into the popper before placing in the mirowave.  It is nice because you are not forced to turn on the stove to pop the kernals.  Our microwave pops a full popper in under 2 minutes, and this fresh air popped popcorn is an entire family hit.  Plus, the heath benefits from this popcorn make microwave popcorn a thing of the past in our family. Look...

I was skeptical when my husband bought the Presto Microwave Popper and a bag of popcorn kernels.  It has proven to be one of the best, purchases that we have made in the last several years.  No more preservatives and toxins from traditional microwave popcorn. With the popper you use can use very little oil (maybe no oil is possible?) and nearly every kernel pops every time.
