This review is from: Nostalgia RHP-310 Mini Retro Popcorn MakerThis popper looks great but is poorly designed. Upside was it was less than $20. The biggest problem is that over the few minutes of popping time, about 1/3 of the kernels are ejected. I've tried:- Stale and fresh popcorn(not by design, I just had some stale corn...:))- Different brands of popcorn- Preheating the popper for ~5 minutes- smaller and larger than recommended batches.None of these things seem to have made a difference.For kicks I 're-popped' the the ejected kernels from a recommended sized batch and got 2 more cups of popped corn out of it.I bet a deeper or larger diameter well would fix this problem but oh well.This popper is very lightweight, which doesn't inspire longevity....

This review is from: Nostalgia RHP-310 Mini Retro Popcorn MakerWe bought one of these from Bed, Bath and Beyond to replace a stir popper leftover from the '70s. It worked once, and failed the next time we tried to use it (and we used the recommended amount of popcorn, and preheated for exactly 2min according to the instructions). The blower wouldn't turn on even though the power light indicated it was on. We returned it and are going to try a different brand with better reviews....

This review is from: Nostalgia RHP-310 Mini Retro Popcorn MakerI just bought this for my dorm room because i hate microwave popcorn, and when I brought it out for movie night....it wouldn't work! The instructions said I would have popcorn "in minutes." Well I had mine on for 110 minutes...and maybe that just wasn't long enough... It's very nice looking, now if it would only pop......
