Lots of kernels don’t pop
3 Stars
Lots of kernels don’t pop
This reminds me of the popcorn maker I had as a kid and I love the idea of clean popcorn however there are too many kernels that shoot out. If you are just looking for this for sentimental reasons then it is great but if you plan to actually use regularly I recommend getting a different one. I’m going to try one that stirs the kernels hopefully it works better.
