I originally ordered this quite some time ago. I don’t know what happened to it, but it never got delivered and I finally canceled the order and re-ordered it. That did the trick. It finally came in a timely manner. Makes lovely popcorn. Clean up is a little bit more than what I thought it would be. I washed it in hot soapy water, but I could not get all of the grease out. Probably my fault. I put it through the dishwasher on the top rack and everything came out fine. Wiping out the base was no problem. I had a little bit of problem putting the arm back on, but finally got it figured out and everything was fine. It pops all the kernels and I like that you can put the lid on it when it’s finished, turn it over, and have your popcorn bowl right there. I would highly recommend this popper.

My family, while growing up and now parents and siblings all have one so currently 4 households, has used a West Bend Stir Crazy for years (like since the 1980s), and we all think this is the best. I think the new to me storing method with the bottom inside the lid is a wonderful improvement. I cracked the lid of my old one as I dropped it while getting it down from the shelf (totally my fault). We've always popped with the (now red) lid off and do not use the butter melting feature; we are also the type of family that will make several batches, put into bowls with our own added butter product. The former popper used 2T oil and 3/4 cup kernels, but this one says 3T oil (which I did for the first batch). I used canola oil and store brand popcorn. There was no plastic smell or whatever others noted in their reviews. I gave 4/5 for cleanup because I agree that sometimes it can get "gunky" in the ridges (well, the old one did), so the jury is still out on that. I do like the taste of popcorn made with coconut oil as someone said, but I do recall that it is a messier cleanup for the lid...but solved with soap and water. Mom puts her lid in the dishwasher, but I clean it in the sink.

We had an original Whirly-Pop many years ago. It worked great. Almost bought a new one...but I wanted the convenience of loading the unit and flipping a switch.... & not having to dote over it or stand over a hot stove while it's popping. Just wait for the popping slow to one every one to two seconds and switch it "off". Done. On this initial test run, we went for broke with the factory suggested MAX of 3/4 cup (Snappy) popcorn, 3 tablespoons (Dutchman's Buttery) popping oil, and 1 tsp of Flavacol. I will say that this Factory-recommended MAX is pushing it, as the lid rose just a tad at the end of the popping stage, and spun around with the corn. hehe. We haven't ate the whole batch yet (about 50% remains) BUT there has been only ONE unpopped kernel- much to the credit of the popper AND the popcorn itself. This. Is. IT. Using the aforementioned ingredients, and not even real butter, the West Bend Popper did a yeoman's job and has immediately earned its place in this household. Easy to use, easy to clean- do NOT submerge the base but wipe it out (you can also easily remove the stir wire for complete cleaning)- easy peasy) and the top bowl and cover are TOP RACK ONLY dishwasher safe. Yes, there is a bit of flex to the top cover, so let's see how long it lasts...but the initial test today is a HOME RUN. We did get it during Prime Day and saved about 10 bucks...but even regular price, it's worth it...and these have tested and reviewed well against the other electric competition. BUY ONE!!

When I sold my previous house and moved into my RV for awhile, I had to sell most of my appliances including my Stir Crazy Corn Popper. After missing my popper for years, I was delighted to purchase a replacement. This newer model looks a bit more modern and works equally as well as my previous Stir Crazy. A half cup of good popping corn and three full tablespoons of oil will produce an entire popper bowl-full of popcorn in just a few minutes with virtually no "orphan" not popped kernels. When my youngest daughter was a small child, she watched, with considerable excitement, through the clear plastic dome bowl as the corn popped. Now she has daughters about the same age that I'm betting will equally enjoy watching the popping process. This corn popper is a lot more fun to use and produces healthier, tastier, less-expensive popped corn than does my microwave oven.

After 3 months of using this thing every Sunday evening, I'm still trying to find something that I don't love about it. NO kernels left un-popped, none of them burnt, it is a wonderful popper. When done, one simply flips it over, and the lid is the bowl! Total cooking time from start to finish is - maybe 3 minutes, if that. We've had several different poppers and this one aces them all. Easy to use, easy to clean, 5 stars all the way.

I bought this popper in July of 2025 and has already quit popping all the popcorn kernels. Did not last 6 months. I have used west bend poppers for years and the old black one lasted several years before being replaced. They are no longer available and the new ones do not meet their standards. Very disappointed.

This is a great popper. Heats up quickly, but outside stats cool. Pops every kernel. Had this brand before and very pleased. Has on/off switch which many don’t. Very happy. We use white corn and canola oil. Tastes great.

This product makes really good popcorn. While the air poppers are good, the popcorn is tastier when popped with oil and butter. It is, however, not really easy to clean. Cooked oil gets stuck in the groves where the lid fits. Because you cannot submerge the electric unit, the groves cannot be cleaned properly. I think that is a small price to pay for good popcorn.

Dumb take this product off for purchase in aus

Love it! Super size. Nice and big. We used to have to do two batches with our old one. Now we just do one batch. We eat alot of popcorn. For healthier treats we use avocado oil and sea salt, and coconut oil with cinnamon. Traditional way is fabulous as well. Highly recommend.

So far it is working. The lid is a pain to clean.
