Cuisinart 16 Cup Popcorn Maker

I have purchased FIVE of these popcorn poppers. They do NOT last. I like to make popcorn about once a week and if you put the plastic bowl in the dishwasher it will crack. You can continue to use it cracked and dump it in a bowl which is what I did but then the base stops working correctly after you have used it a while. I have no other appliance that I have purchased multiple times. I like the popcorn but Cuisinart needs to figure out how to make this last or increase the warranty,

It lasted 6 months before the base cracked from heat expansion. Upper clear part several cracked from heat/normal use in less than 2 yrs. Use it about twice a month

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product provides delicious popcorn! I would however recommend following the oil to kernel ratio on whatever brand of popcorn you use and not what is recommended by Cusinart.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love popcorn and just wasn't thrilled with microwave popcorn so I decided to try the Cuisinart popper. The popcorn tastes sooo much better. Very easy to use and clean. You do need to watch it, as I burnt my first attempt just a bit. I see kernels on the edge of my popper as the bar spins, but by the time it's finished popping, I have yet to find any that didn't pop! Very happy with that, as I hate eating unpopped kernels mixed in with my popcorn. I usually just hand wash my pieces to the popcorn maker. Photos show my first attempt that burned slightly 😬

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love it! Perfect popcorn every time and easy to clean.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this because of the easy cleaning it provides. It is two separate pieces that you can take a part and put in the dishwasher. The other popcorn maker I had did not have this feature and it was hard to remove the popcorn skins and old oil. It could be a little larger to make more popcorn but if I need more I just do two batches. Lol!

This popcorn maker is outstanding! It’s so cool to watch it pop by viewing the glass top. 2tablespoon of olive oil . I used avocado oil was delish… Love the modern red color. Another outstanding little appliance .

The instructions for this are pretty cut and dry. Add oil, add popcorn, cover and turn it on. The best part is that the cover is also the popcorn bowl!

Great! Just a little smaller than I was expecting.

This popcorn popper is awesome. It’s an all in one popper. No need for an extra bowl and no popcorn flying around the kitchen and onto the floor! I love it….

Makes great tasting popcorn with almost no unpopped kernels.

Great popcorn, BUT ... Don't try to make a second batch w/o letting device cool.

Love the way it pops all the kernels, just makes eating popcorn special, can add melted butter and other ingredients after it is finished, plus I use the convenience of eating out of the popper and its very easy to clean everything.

The popcorn popper is wellmade and works well. I have used it about a dozen times and it has performed very well. The removable stirring plate makes it easy to flip the lid/popcorn bowl over for use as a bowl. The large vent area at the top keeps steam from condensating in the bowl so it does not get soggy during the popping process. Each time I had less than 6 kernals that did not pop. The only drawback for me, I had to take the stirring bar off and make a few adjudtments to the angle of it due to it being set too high out of the box. It did not catch the majority of the unpopped kernals while stirring. A couple of bends and now I am very pleased with my popper! After flipping the popcorn, I place the stirring plate in the sink. The base is still extremely hot and cause burning of any left over oil or butter residue in the stirring pan.

This is easy to use and clean up is a breeze. The taste is much better than microwave popcorn.

This is my third Cuisinart popcorn maker and I do like the smooth dome. The stirring arm reverses way too often and the heating element seems to be more cheaply made than the older version. All in all it still makes good popcorn.

I was using a competitor's popcorn popper with a stirrer, and its flimsy build pales in comparison to the Cuisinart Popcorn Popper. The popcorn popper's base is sturdy, and its stiffer plastic construction is also sturdy. I look forward to many years of use.

Good job of popping all the kernals; a bit slow in heating up.

This popcorn maker is a higher level than any that I've owned. It pops all the kernels every time and is easy to clean. It has the Cuisinart quality.

Best popcorn popper! We have tried several different popcorn popper brands over the past 10 years since we stopped doing microwave popcorn and this is the best one hands down. It does a great job popping all of the corn, is easy to clean up and the popped corn is light and delicious. We have “popcorn nights” at least once a week with popcorn, wine and cheese evenings so we are really picky about the popcorn.
