Works well until the motor dies (I’ve owned two)
My family watches a movie every Saturday night and lots of popcorn is a must. The first Presto air popper we bought survived about 5 months, then one Saturday I got a little over zealous with the popcorn and hit to close to the line, when I turned it on, it burned out. Since I blamed myself I bought another one thinking it would be fine if I just stayed well below the line, which I did. After using it about 10-12 times, I plugged it in and instantly the motor burned out - it barely made a noise just dead. I really like this popper when it works, but I just can’t keep buying it only to have it die.
