I love the measuring cup! The stern method help popcorn to pop up, and nothing is left as a seed and I love it. I also love that you can all use a love dishes because the same cover for the popcorn machine is a ball that you can use it . Fast shipping. The only advice that I can give is don’t let kids using it especially with the ball it’s light. If they drop it they may break it other things. I love this machine. I’m gonna new use it often. I will buy one for my mom and another for my sister.
