Product Description: Heats popcorn using hot air for dry, healthy and delicious popcorn / As Seen On TV
Amazon.com Review: Plug in Presto’s PopLite and the party begins. In less than 2-1/2 minutes you’ll have up to 18 cups--two large bowlfuls--of fluffy popcorn with virtually no unpopped kernels. And because the machine uses hot air instead of oil, the resulting snack is healthier and lower in calories. That’s not to say you can’t add butter; in fact, the 1/2-cup measuring cup on top of the popper doubles as a butter melter. Simply put in the desired amount of margarine or butter (room temperature is best), and it melts from the heat produced during the popping process. The clear plastic cover and cup, which must stay on during popping so the popped corn doesn’t fly all over the room, easily remove for hand cleaning with warm, soapy water. No other clean-up is required. While a few unpopped kernels spring out the chute as the machine begins to heats up, the chute does a good job of directing the popped corn into a bowl. The popper measures 14 by 9 by 6-1/2 inches, and is identical to Presto’s Orville Redenbacher Hot Air Corn Popper except for color and logo. Presto covers the PopLite with a two-year warranty. --Ann Bieri

This is a good, reliable product. After giving up the microwave popcorn because of recent reports, I decided to go back to air popping. No oil, no additives.

Inexpensive and works great! Hot kernels do pop out at you once in a while but it's a hot air popcorn popper. I haven't tried anything but the OR yellow popcorn kernels with this popper yet, but the popcorn ... Read More

I love this corn popper. It produces great popcorn without the greasy calories and yucky, oversalted taste of packaged microwave popcorn. Since the corn is basically taste-free, I have the freedom to dress it ... Read More
