Bought this machine in January 2012 and it's still going strong. Popcorn machine was a big hit at parties and my family reunion. Once you use this machine you won't go back to microwave popcorn. It's easy to operate and clean. If you want movie theatre popcorn you have to get coconut oil and butter popcorn salt.

The one small problem i had that i quickly figured out is that you have to use a little less than 4 ounces of popcorn seeds to cook all in kettle. If you use 4 oz or more, only half the popcorn would pop. So, 3 to 3.5 oz seems to be the magic number for my machine.

This style of popper has been around for decades. There is a stainless steel kettle suspended from the roof of the cabinet, with a stirrer, and you put the kernels inside to heat in the oil and then spill out when the lid lifts.

The sides are tempered safety glass panels while the doors are polycarbonate plastic. You use commercial popping oil (coconut oil based) that can take the high heat of the popper. The cleaning is relatively simple; the worst job is occasionally cleaning out the windows as they get a bit greased up. There is a drawer to hold the unpopped kernels.

This is reasonably priced enough for a splashy home theater or for a boys and girls' club. Charitable organizations and businesses might even consider it for carnivals, convention events or fair trailers for selling popcorn or giving bags away as a promotion.

I decided to wait to write my review and before I knew it...it has been over two years. Still going strong! We love it and the only complaint is I wish I had bought a 6oz. popper. The popcorn can be sealed up and eaten the next day and it is still fresh. We use mega-Pop but they are all pretty much the same. Movie night is really exciting now and our guests simply love it!

Honest reviews on Great Northern Popcorn Black Foundation Antique Style Popcorn

After much research, I decided on this model popper from Great Northern. I purchased a box of their 4oz pre-measured popcorn to go along with this and popped my first batch after taking about 10 minutes to set everything up. Four minutes later I had my first batch of popcorn. I think each popped batch is enough for two people so I'm happy with the volume. The design of the machine seems fine to me. Nothing was obtrusive and nothing was excessive. Simple and easy. I'm extremely happy with this popper and so far I think it is worth the cost. Their owners manual could use some simplifying but that's just being nitpicky.
