Review: EXTREMELY happy - I am extremely happy with this popper. It's attractive, lightweight, and simple. The top and the measuring cup fit nicely. I appreciate the lack of a switch--one less thing to break. I mean, I'm going to have to plug it in every time I use it anyway. I made my first batch and it was perfect--perfect! There were very, very few unpopped kernels. And the popcorn was surprisingly plump (noticeably better that my oil-based popper with the same batch of kernels). Tasted fine. I used my biggest Pyrex bowl and it filled it. The machine was not nearly as loud as I thought it would be based on other reviews. I let it cool and simply rinsed everything off. One thing to note: after it pops and you unplug it, wait! Wait at lease 30 seconds or so for the few hot kernels in the machine to finish popping. It's surprising when they pop with the cover off.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I roast coffee beans in it**
A: The ideal popper for roasting coffee, it seems, is higher wattage and circular vents. It seems to be difficult to find both features in any current model. This model has higher wattage but blows straight upward through a central vent. Despite that, many people report that it works fairly well as a roaster. Myself, I have a 1200 watt model with circular vents. I have had fantastic results with it. Don't listen to people who say you can't get good results unless you have 1350 watts or more - it's not true. I never roast darker than full city. If you like a really dark roast with oils coming to the surface then a lower wattage model might struggle with that and this model might be better for you. For most everyone else I would really recommend a circular popper for better results.

**Q: Is it BPA free**
A: I'm not sure about the plastic chute, but the inside of the container is metal. This is where the heating occurs and popcorn is placed. I'm assuming that the only area that is plastic and may contain BPA is the plastic top, but the popcorn only touches it for a brief second as it descends the chute into your bowl. I'm sure there is very little exposure to BPA if the plastic even contains it. Since I only use it for roasting coffee beans and the beans roast inside the metal interior I don't concern myself very much about the BPA in the plastic if any.For further information you can Email Presto at www.GoPresto.com or call them at 1-800-877-0441 weekdays 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM (Central Time).

**Q: Is this made in China or USA**
A: Currently, there are six for sale on Ebay which were made in the USA, including the same model I use (still) to make great popcorn, which I bought in 1996; made in Eau Claire, WI by Presto Industries. Ah...the good ol' days, when we kept manufacturing here, before NAFTA and "China, Most Favored Nation Status" took hold. Ugh.

**Q: I am limited for counter space.  How tall is this machine and approximately what is the diameter of the base?**
A: With the cover on, it is 14" high. The diameter is 6.5".  It you take the cover off and store it in a cabinet, the height is 9.5".

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Darn good popper but don't put the measuring cup in a microwave
*by F***T on December 19, 2025*

I was using a cast iron frying pan with a little oil in it but this is way better. Also better than microwave popcorn. Makes super fluffy popcorn, no burnt kernels, more kernels fully pop, and of those few that don't pop, some stay in the machine so they're a little easier to separate. Seems to be just as fast as popping them on a stove top or in a microwave. I find that it can help to tilt the popper back a little so that unpopped kernels are less likely to get blown out, especially so with some smaller kernels such as white popcorn. Once the chamber fills with popped kernels, they tend to hold the unpopped ones in the chamber. The measuring dish is sort of effective in melting butter but some remains unmelted. I put the yellow dish in the microwave to finish the job but the hot butter melted the plastic. Bad idea.
