We received this in just one day. The cart instructions were not very clear, but we finally figured it out.  It pops way more then our 2.5 Kettle. The popper was too tall to fit on our counter with cabinets over it, but the cart does not take up a lot of space.  It also provides a great place to store popcorn and supplies. The Kettle is super easy to clean.  It does steam up since there are no vent in side glass. Overall love this product.
