Excelente producto. Recomendado 100%

I have owned a popcorn machine with a 4 oz kettle for 10 or so years! It is always worked great. However, I noticed some of the unpopped kernels get blasted out. So I thought I would order a bigger kettle popcorn machine. This one fit the bill perfectly! It pops the 4 ounce packets perfectly! The 8 oz packet very nicely with little to no waste. The 10oz popcorn packets pop okay in this unit but you will have a little bit of spillage. One thing I did notice on this unit was that my older unit could empty out the popcorn a little easier since it would tip almost completely over when you're emptying! This unit seems to only be able to dump it to 90°! So sometimes if you left over kernels or popcorn crumbs remain in the kettle after dumping! So this one could use a slight modification to allow it to dump a little better! Other than that I don't think there's anything else that could be improved on this machine! It's very nice especially when compared to my old 4 oz popcorn machine!

After reading through reviews for a number of popcorn carts, we bought this one as it seemed the safest bet. The price is noticeably higher than others, but it's also one of the few with the 10oz capacity in this form with these features. As many have said, when the box arrived it was quite beaten up. I was nervous that i'd have the same issues others have reported. Nope. Machine was pristine. Packaging it arrives in is excellent and designed for the abuse. Unpacking it was no problem and all pieces were accounted for and in good condition. Now, many have reported that the directions are hard to find in the package and inadequate. If you unpack everything, and take the items out of the boxes that are themselves in boxes, then everything is easily located. The assembly instructions are in a small booklet and printed small to boot. About 90% of the assembly is intuitive and we completed it without even needing to reference the instructions. They do not break down the assembly instructions into steps, its more of an exploded diagram type. There aren't many pieces(12 nuts/bolts, 4 screws) so even with the small instructions, it wasn't a problem. Included in the box is the machine and a parts kit that includes the kind of wrenches you'd find in an IKEA build. There is NO Phillips head screwdriver, which is needed. If you have tools, save yourself the hassle and use your own. You will need a Knife(to open the boxes), a socket wrench and a phillips head screwdriver. Assembly took about 30 minutes. As for the machine itself, it is of better quality than i was expecting, though i think the price is still a bit steep for what you get. The machine is not flimsy at all, actually feels quite solid. The floor of the popcorn tray does rattle and if there is no weight on it and if you have it in a theater room, it will make noise(simply making the popcorn or putting a small book on it solves this). The wheels are much higher quality than i was expecting. The one thing that stood out to me was that the paint job is excellent. The box under the popper connects to the wheel frame with 4 bolts with no washers, and none of the paint came off as i tightened down the bolts. The only part of the machine that really bothered me is that they put a part number sticker on the face of the flip out scooping tray. When this is peeled off it leaves the residue behind. While it does come off, it's really unnecessary and creates more work. Now for the MAJOR flaw with this unit. The edges of the push handle and of the exterior tray are unfinished cut sheet aluminum. They are EXTREMELY sharp. I'm planning on putting a bead of silicone on the edges to keep my family from cutting themselves. This seems like a very easy problem to fix and the manufacturer really does need to address this. An easier solution, but would be more visible is to just put tape over the edges, but the user really shouldn't have to deal with this. I bought it for my kids and this is a significant issue. All in all, if you're aware of the sharp edge issue, it is a good machine, albeit a bit on the pricey side.

I love this machine. It works very well and my company uses it a lot. Multiple times every week day. We have 400 employees and everyone has access to it and instructions on how to use it. Needless to say we go through a lot of popcorn, butter, oil and bags. The only negative I have found is that little bits get stuck along the inside edge of the main compartment. The edge is hard to clean. If the bottom tray slipped out of place you could clean it better. Other than that this thing is a work horse. We have burned the bulb out but that is because it is constantly on even into the evening and early morning. I replaced the bulb with one from the local store. Lol, I just heard the kernels being dropped into the measuring cup. This is our 3rd batch of the day and it is 3pm. Great machine.

Popcorn machine is 5 stars! Works great! Just follow directions and have amazing popcorn. But if you over fill it will burn (that's why you follow the instructions and have had no issues since). As for the cart... 0 stars Instructions are easy to follow, pieces are painted beautifully. But nothing fits properly... I triple checked and still won't go together. The side pieces have notches to slide in before screwing the handles and tray, but the door and back panel are too far apart for the side pieces to fit but about 1/4". I rotated every piece multiple times (usually works on ikea furniture to find the right pieces that are out of tolerance to make them work together) and still nothing. So I moved forward to try to see what else won't fit, and found the bolts that hold the wheel portion to the carriage do not screw in. The botls are too small of holes are too large on the underside of the carriage. I tried to just screw the bolts in to see if it was not aligning up, and the can just slide in and out. The screws do not catch (only 1 set of bolts are long enough to go through wheel and carriage, other bolts are 1" long for holding the sides and handle/tray together that do not fit). So now my machine sits on the coffee table verses the side of the room and I have to decide if I should drill new holes for the sides and retread the both piece or try to return when none are even available to sell at this time... I will update review once I figure out how and provide how it was corrected so others in this situation can use the cart with thier machine as well.
