Presto® PopLite® hot air popper 

Graham, when you need a replacement, we hope you consider a Presto popper!

@@PrestoAppliances Hahaha! Wouldn’t your company like that financially! 🤑

Thank you! We appreciate your kind review. What is your favorite appliance?

Glad to hear you like it!

All Presto hot air poppers operate by weight. If there is not enough weight in the chamber, the hot air will blow out unpopped kernels. Note: Some varieties of small and lighter weight kernel popcorn are not recommended for use with hot air poppers. Heavier kernels, like yellow popcorn, work best. You will have kernels that come out if you use white popcorn, and small kernels such as baby rice, simply do not pop well in this popper.

@@PrestoAppliances I did not know this, thanks so much! I have a bag and a half of white popcorn so I’ll try yellow popcorn next. 👍

Air popped corn will have a complete different taste than corn that is popped with oil like theater popcorn. It may taste 'chewy' or 'stale' - these are normal characteristics. You are able to add seasonings of your choice after popping is complete. Consider spraying a bit of ‘spray oil’ on your popcorn and then add salt or other seasonings. Flavored spray oils can be used as well. If there are any questions, please feel free to contact Presto Customer Service Department Monday-Friday 8:00 am - 4:00 pm Central Time by phone 1-800-877-0441.

@Atheist United I started putting my popcorn in the microwave. Use a microwave safe bowl with a lid and no oil it works fine no need to buy popcorn maker.

@@beverlylister9123 Jesus

salt or butter might help?

@@urlocalsimp559 if u put any seasoning in the machine it will break

@@sprazer oh right then maybe after it's done popping and yeah its chewy at first but it gets less chewy

Use a bigger bowl. It lets the steam escape

Depending on the vendor, prices range from about $30-40.

We understand your frustration with the cost of the new popper. Unfortunately, the cost of everything (not just Presto prices) has gone up the past few years with supply chain issues and the pandemic. We hope you are enjoying your new popper, however. If you have any concerns, we welcome your call or email. We are available weekdays, 8:00 - 4:00 Central Time. Call 1-800-877-0441 or email contact1@gopresto.com

There is no such thing as an “illegal alien”, and if you knew that they were undocumented when you hired them, and you probably did, because the price was just too good to pass up, then you are just as culpable for your misfortune as the people you’re maligning, because you started off *breaking the law.* Next time, go with a well-known, established company, even if the price is higher, because as we all know you get exactly that you pay for, and you are a living testimony to that fact.
