It is great! I bought this for a Father's Day gift for my hubby who loves popcorn. We have used many different types of popcorn poppers and this is the best. Almost no unpopped kernels! My only concern is that the bowl is a little flimsy so I hand wash it with care.My husband loves eating the popcorn I make for him. I think I'll make some today! Writing this review is making me crave some buttery popcorn. ; D
