 "A Great Idea" 2008-02-10
By Autumn Leaves (Point Roberts, WA, USA)
I find roasting nuts in the oven messy and bulky.

I thought this roaster would roast nuts the way that

I want too, with just spice, while being contained in the little pan.



It did do well using the bottled mix to roast sweet nuts, but

what I found was that the instructions for nuts without

sugar called for pre-roast in the oven.



I found it to be well constructed and easy to use, but I have a very small kitchen so

I passed it on.

 "BEWARE!!! Burned out motor after one use" 2009-04-05
By Laura A. Tomczak (Greendale, WI USA)
I made one smoothie and the motor burned out. I had it on pulse and then the low setting and I could smell something burning. I let it rest for awhile and tried again when it just stopped. The motor burned out. It is total junk and don't recommend it. My last smoothie maker was a Back to Basics and lasted 3 years with a lot of use. It was the cheaper model and liked it much better.

 "Used it Alot, Wore it Out" 2009-02-03
By K. E. McKnight (Richmond, VA)
I have an elaborate smoothie recipe using wheat germ; flaxseed meal; peanut butter; yogurt; tofu; 2 C frozen fruits, to name a few ingredients. Instructions with this for smoothie recipes in their book helped guide me on how to make a thicker smoothie. This machine did a great job with the challenging recipe I have. I made the smoothie more than once a week usually, sometimes three times or more. This machine did great. I wore it out in almost a year. The motor started smelling when I used it. I tried the pour spout on the front once - didn't like it. The pour spout of the jar could be better (different shape, maybe more pointed) in that my smoothie wanted to pour wide out of it so it was easy to miss the drinking vessel. The biggest con was cleaning and reassembling. The pour spout cap had to be removed to clean the threads. The blade assembly and ring had to be removed and cleaned all over. I had to put water in it before use to check for leaks once it was reassembled, and I often had to loosen and tighten a few times before it wouldn't leak water after being cleaned and reassembled. Dealing with the leaking was a hassle.

I was a bit skeptical considering others claimed the cups are useless within a month or so but that's not something I've come across in my case. While it is the perfect product for a single serving smoothie, you do have to make sure to master the right ratio of ice to liquids in order to have a delicious smoothie. I tend to add more liquid and less ice. I use it on a daily basis and love it!

Have been using the slushie express for about a month. I use it to make milk shakes and smoothies. I have had more smoothies in last one month than in the whole year. The only problem is it doesn't have a on/off switch. May be thats the reason many reviewers have complained of the side knobs breaking off after few uses. Otherwise, its a nice compact machine.

 "Better than anything I've owned" 2009-01-14
By archaeoamy (Arizona)
Stove-popped popcorn is WAY better than air- or microwave- popped popcorn. This one is SOOO much easier to use than a regular cooking pot with lid. We've used it nearly every day since we got it. Buttered popcorn, cheese sticks & apple/orange slices is the dinner the kids are begging for. So I'm not complaining.



Cons: Yes, the LID is a little awkward, but there is a gadget holding the lid on that I find if it is turned wrong will make the lid pop up. Just have to make sure it is turned right to keep it closed. Also, if you take the entire lid off to clean, it is tricky to get it back on -- I get a little impatient with it, but I figured out that if both lids are OPEN when you put it on it goes on much easier. The company could do better at redesigning the lid.



Pros: I've never owned another stove-top popper, just used my good 'ol cooking pot and this is way EASIER, much more EFFICIENT (popped ALL of the kernels whereas my old pot left about 30-50 unpopped). The POT part of the popper is VERY STURDY, heavy-duty and able to withstand high temperatures. The lid even has VENTS in it, which is very important in making good popcorn, it lets out the moisture produced when popping! PRICE: Only cost $20 -- I think that is the perfect price for this contraption -- if I had paid $30 or more I would be somewhat disappointed, but I'm happy with it and LOVE MY POPCORN.





If you can get past the finicky lid, it is a GREAT deal and so much fun to use!





A few Popping hints:



1. WASH the pot with soap/water before using!! (oops, I didn't and had to throw out the first batch)



2. use 3 Tbsp veg. oil and let it heat up BEFORE putting in the popcorn (test the oil by putting in a kernel, if it pops in about 3 minutes it is hot enough).



3. use NO MORE than 1/2 cup of kernels -- in fact, slightly less is just perfect. Any more and the popped corn will not fit in the pot.



4. 1 batch (1/2 cup) of popcorn produces barely enough popcorn for our family of 6. It would be perfect for a family of 4. 1 1/2 batches is just right.

 "Review of Back to Basics Stove Top Popper" 2009-01-12
By Mary Wilson (Summit, Utah USA)
I paid more to get what I thought was a quality popper. It pops the corn great! However after taking the top off to wash the pan, it is EXTREMELY difficult to get the lid back on. For this reason I would not recommend it to anyone.



It did not come with an instruction booklet. The box said there was one inside, but there was not.

 "The lid works fine! And the popcorn is good!" 2008-12-07
By Steven Petersen (Portland, OR United States)
I almost did not purchase this popcorn maker after reading all of the complaints about the lid not fitting properly. But I went ahead with the purchase and am glad that I did.



When first taken out of the box, it is true that the side of the lid that opens on a hinge was not fitting well. It had to be pushed into place and fit tightly against the side of the pot. But I soon found that there is a lot of wiggle room in the lid's hinges. Lifting up on the spring clamp that holds the lid on allows the lid to be slid slightly one way or the other to give the proper fit. And as others have said, nearly every kernel pops, and the popcorn is great.

 "Fabulous popper! " 2008-12-01
By Grieg Vanlandingham (Kingsport, TN)
I have loved popcorn all my life, have used every method including fire place poppers. This is the ultimate popcorn popper! I have gone through countless aluminum ones. This is no more difficult to assemble than they, no more hassle to wash, lid stays in place perfectly and there is never more than a kernel or two left unpopped. It is heavy, won't warp, can be used on ceramic stove top, no aluminum health scares. Simply the best! Price was great especially considering not having to replace it again.

Thank you, Back to Basics!!!

 "Stir crazy rules!" 2009-07-19
By Joseh W. Hamman (chicago, il)
This is my second stir crazy (got my first in college and had many a late night party in my room when the smell of popcorn went wafting down the hall). The new one is a little more rounded, high tech, and clear dome instead of yellow. I use two tablespoons of canola oil (Orville R's oil is good too and slightly buttery), 2/3 cup of store-brand white rice popcorn (cheaper than Orville's and more tender imho). Let the popper heat up for 30 seconds before adding the oil and corn. Leave the coffee lid thing off to let the steam escape to get a drier, more tender pop. Melt the real butter (3 Tbs) separately in a coffee cup in your microwave. When the corn is done popping (2 seconds between pops), add the coffee lid, flip the unit over, watch out for the steam!!, and drizel butter, then salt to taste. I like Morton's popocorn salt (very fine). People who have only had microwave go ga-ga over when they try this.

Make sure not to use too much or too little oil (I use cooking spray).



I have had a few batches go in the trash due to too much or too little oil, other than that it's an OK popper. I am thinking about replacing soon.

 "Old is better than New!" 2009-06-16
By Frank K. David (CA, USA)
We replaced an older version of this with the newest version - the older one still did a good job, but it was starting to make strange noises.

The new version differs in both quality and subtle design features. The quality of the non-stick coating is much lower than it used to be; and the metal stiring bar has degraded in that it tends to bend more readily which allows kernels to slide beneath it. The design features that make the new version appear more rounded have removed the distinct edges that allowed a firm grip in removing and handling the top when dumping out the popped kernels...not good when handling hot items!

If we had known about these changes to the old model when we looked to replace our old popper, we would have looked at other manufactures.
