I used to have a small. inexpensive model that shot popcorn through a smaller channel that left everything in the bowl. All the reviewers were correct about this one shooting popcorn everywhere due to the force of the popping and the width of the spout. But there isn't really a decent alternative, so just use a large bowl, put it on the kitchen counter and aim it toward the wall, guide it by keeping something at the sides or putting a kitchen towel over it while it is operating, and don't overfill the chamber.

Works well, very much worth the price. I've never before been able to sharpen our kitchen knives nearly this sharp without much more effort.

This item is very well made and heavy duty. Large enough to can or cook almost anything and very easy to use. Very pleased with my purchase.

This is a good item but I hate to keep buying them. Wish they would last a little longer.

A simplistic approach to deep frying small amounts. For that purpose and this price, it's all you might need.

Bought this to replace an electric skillet over twenty years old. So, far it has preformed beautifully. Only draw back is that it has a couple of hot spots. I'll get used to them by-and-by.

I bought mine at WalMart, and have tried it with and without oil. Very few kernels actually pop under any circumstances. I can only leave it in my medium size microwave for about 35 seconds. Any longer and it will begin to burn, and I mean a black, foul smelling sort of burn! The original product that Orville Redenbacher lent his name to must have been a better quality product. It has obviously been cheapened in some way, because there is no way Orville Redenbacher would stand for having his name on this thing.

Unfortunately, this really is not better or faster than using the oven.

I tried three different pizzas and followed the directions exactly. It's just not better or faster than using the oven so I don't want to waste my money or counter space on it. It's going back to the store tomorrow.

I wanted to get a waffle maker that would basically give me the same quality waffles as those I had at a really nice hotel. I am glad I didn't buy one of those expensive brands. This is perfect. It makes the waffles fluffy and nice. The one problem I have is with the timer....(even though I read about this in other reviews) the door to the battery compartment is very flimsy. I also have to agree that this function should have been incorporated into the electrical system instead of being separate.
Overall, a nice product despite this and I am enjoying my waffles!
