I wanted to try out popping popcorn differently than buying the microwave bags of popcorn. I bought one of the air poppers that have the chute at the front, but that was a bust, as the kernels would bounce off the bowl onto the floor. Going back to the store that had the air popper I orignally bought, I found the Presto Microwave Popper. I've seen commericals for these many years ago, and didn't know they were still being made. Long story short, this popper works great, with most of the kernels popping (very good popped to unpopped ratio). The popper comes with these heating discs that go on the bottom of the popper before adding corn and oil. One disc will last between 12-24 batches of popcorn, depending on whether you use oil or not. The replacement discs I've found at Wal-Mart as well as the store that I bought the popper from. Very easy to clean, the base separates from the bowl, with the bowl and lid being dishwasher safe. Great product, 4 stars!!!

I am thorougly delighted with this microwave popcorn popper. It is easy to use, a cinch to clean, and it makes delicious popcorn quickly. It is amazing how good it tastes with nothing added!

I am comparing the PowerPop to an old hot air popper. It made very good plain popcorn. I prefer popcorn made without oil and only lightly salted. I thought the PowerPop would be ideal because of so many good reviews on how great the popcorn tasted.
The problem is with the concentrator which you replace after several uses. The kernels are placed in the bottom of the bowel on top of the paper plate like concentrators. The concentrator will scorch at full or partial power. That browned scorch, which is normal even after one use, causes an odor in unoiled kernels that I can detect when I lift the lid when the popping is finished. I can taste that mild but noticeable burnt flavor in the popcorn. That burnt smell and taste may not be apparent unless you have been accustomed to plain, hot air popped corn.
When I followed the instructions and used oil as recommended by the PowerPop instructions, the scorched smell and taste are not as obvious. I also used the same bag of kernels for both the old hot air popper and the PowerPop to compare the taste. I do not recommend the PowerPop for making plain, unoiled popcorn.

I really like my other Presto products, a pressure cooker and the Pizzazz pizza cooker. But this thing is more of a gimmick than anything else. It does work pretty well, but is kind of a hassle to clean and store. Plus I need to remember to keep the little paper cooking disks in stock. I liked it OK at first, but now rarely use it. Microwave popcorn bags don't really cost that much more than the bulk popcorn plus the disks, and are much more convenient.

I've now made about half a dozen batches of popcorn in the PowerPop I got last week. I haven't found any way to use it that doesn't result in burnt corn. Even using low power levels and shorter times or removing it and shaking the popped corn every 30 seconds still results in some burning. The inserts get much too hot, much too quickly, and I noticed that there is some charred plastic in the bottom of the bowl.
Used "normally" (e.g. 2 minutes on high), as I did for the first batch, my PowerPop produces a blackened, smoky mess.
