Picked up one of these a couple years ago, now a family member is looking and spotted this - think it's a good price, with free popcorn boxes and you get a bag of Kernels - Not forgetting 2 years warranty :smiley:

A dry saucepan with the lid on will do this job. Don't waste your money.

how much are the packs of popcorn to use in this?

You can use various kernels, usually dirt cheap in various supermarkets etc :smiley:
I have a pop corn maker not this model. Had it for years. Didn't think it would be great but any how I threw in a few kernals and it was noisey. Sufficed to say the kernels popped quite well and as they're light they fall out the top very easily while any unpopped kernals remain at the base until they pop.
They work.

No, they thought they'd make something that does nothing at all.

I've got this one and its very good, fast and convenient to make the popcorn and you put the butter or whatever you want to coat them in the top cup after first using it to measure and drop in the right amount of seeds. It's a good system but like Krooner has said you can use a dry saucepan or better still use oil/butter in the saucepan and flavour how you want. Nothing water based of course has to be oil/fat based. Maybe a mixture of oil and treacle. I don't think the microwave is as good it tends to burn the popcorn more but this might vary with the microwave. Mine will pop some quickly and by the time the last seeds have popped the first popped one's are slightly singed.

Probably better of getting this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/d/Popcorn-Poppers/VonShef-Retro-Vintage-Maker-Boxes-Kernels-Warranty/B01LLH1QEE/ref=zg_bs_3538361031_3?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=GXGY7XNNHKCSQVEWKAPB doesn't seem to throw out as many kernels and is cheaper!
I prefer just putting the kernels into the microwave and nuking them for 1-2min. Once the popping slows down most the kernels have popped.
They work.
