Pops about 60% of the kernels
This popper isn't great. Kernels fly out of the mouth when it's on, before the corn starts popping. Then the corn pops, but even with a tall bowl that's near the mouth of the popper, inevitably some of it flies out of the bowl from the air and the speed. There are always a lot of unpopped kernels in the bowl. I actually counted after making a small bowl, and there were 115 popped kernels, and 76 unpopped. So only about 60% of the corn gets popped. The other ends up in the bowl. Oh, and some of the early ones that pop are barely popped too. I give it 2 stars because it does pop some corn.
