easy to use
The Maxi-Matic EPM-250, i had found this popcorn popper very easy to use. It comes with measure tools to get the right amount of oil and popcorn. I am on a diet, that allows me to have a snack of 6 cups of popcorn after popping. This makes the right amount (small bag of movie size popcorn). After the unit cool down, just add 6 oz. of water and turn back on for a couple minutes to boil water. Let it cool down again and you can empty the water and wipe it clean. The tray, i wash with soap and water after each use. It was worth the money.
Didn't do it for us
We had great hopes for this product, but will likely return it.
What we liked.
It is attractive looking and, for the nature of the product, the overall size of the entire box is small enough. I wouldn't want it any smaller as steam has to escape when popping corn.
What we didn't like.
The popping pot is too small. It produces enough popped corn for one person. That may be perfectly suitable for a single person or for two people who eat little popcorn, except for one problem. Because the pot is small, the lid is small. Popped corn is large. We find that the popped corn cannot escape through the lid as it should because it jams at the small opening. When it is finally forced through and we try to dump the remaining popped corn from the pot, it too jams, making it difficult to get the popped corn out.
It takes a long time to make popcorn. The first batch requires three minutes for the oil to heat, then about another three...
Great Popcorn Maker
Picked up this popcorn maker a few weeks ago, just before my daughter's birthday party--thought it would be a great way to entertain 10 crazy kids...... It worked perfectly! It was a nice addition to the event and it helped me keep all those kids contained (as much as kids at party can be hahahaha). Looked at comparable popcorn makers, but this was one had the lowest price; however, it proved to be a great buy. It is convenient, easy to use, and the warming light allows me to keep the popcorn fresh. It has a great design and it is of great quality--overall a great buy. It allowed me to keep my daughter and her friends entertained. It will definitely be a staple for future parties.
