Sensio Home Popcorn Maker 1200W | Gourmet Popcorn Machine | Best Air Popcorn Popper - Fat Free and Healthy

I have just started making popcorn in the microwave and as my microwave is not that powerful as it is only 800 watts, it takes me about 5 to 10 mins to make any popcorn and I have tried different methods and some are slower than others and they all have a lot of unpopped kernels which even though they can be used again, is annoying. However, the popcorn I did make in the microwave did have a nice crunch to it even if some of it was a tad burned! But I wanted to compare it to popcorn made in a machine. On the downside, the popcorn in the popcorn maker is a tad less crunchy and so more chewy which is not such a bad thing but it may not be to everyone's liking but that can easily be overcome by drying it out a tad more in the microwave for a minute or two and then just give it time to cool off. However, I can't really fault the popcorn maker apart from having to be careful with the lid as it does come off very easily, but as long as you treat it with care, it works fine and instead of taking 5 to 10 mins to make the popcorn in my microwave, it only took about 3 mins to do a whole batch and it only left 4 unpopped kernels at the bottom which is a great improvement. I would suggest that you stand by it as with the final bits shoot out they can miss the bowl but that was only about 4 pieces that did that. So, on the whole, I would say that for the price it is a great bit of kit and intend to use it on a regular basis, but make sure that you leave it for at least 10 mins for it to cool down before you do another batch or it will over-heat and never put in more than a level cupful or 80 grams and the machine should last a long time. I have no idea how long it will last but hopefully it will last for more than a year. I would certainly recommend this product even though I was a tad unsure due to the mixed reviews, but from my personal experience, all that I can say is that it makes very good popcorn very quickly and it tastes great

I was ready to return when I took it out of the box because I thought it didn't look great, but the quality completely changed my mind. I had a cute vintage-looking VonShef for about four years, replacing a similar one that stopped working after three years. I decided to try a different brand because the VonShef model left SO MANY kernels unpopped and got popcorn flying all over the place as soon as they started to come out. This one, however, seems like a game-changer! It's great! It only left like 5 kernels unpopped (while left 1/3 of kernels). Also – not as close as messy! Yes, you get some popcorn out of the bowl towards the end of the process, but it's totally reasonable. With the other one, I had to cover it with a tea towel, which is not what we should be doing with these things. I use it everyday. Hopefully it will last a good while.

I really like this popcorn maker. It's easy to operate and doesn't make a ton of mess. That being said, the popcorn this makes tends to come out a bit soft compared to other popping methods. Some might consider this "stale" but in reality there's just a little extra moisture still in the popcorn. There's an easy way to fix this, but it takes 1 extra step: Once this machine pops the corn, spread it out on a baking tray and pop it in the oven at 200c for about 10-15 minutes, and you're done! You can then pour over melted butter if you want, maybe add some seasonings. I find if I do this the popcorn is still good 12 hours later, so worth it in the end.

Bought this as a Christmas gift, used it a few times and we went to use it again last week nothing happened, did not turn on. Contacted customer support for advice, had a very prompt reply & a replacement machine within 3 days. Cannot fault this company & would highly recommend them.

Bought in March and have only used it a handful of times and it’s already broke. Worked well the first two uses but since then, it got loud and now doesn’t work full stop. Wouldn’t recommend buying, not worth the money.

Just what I needed. The popcorn is good quality and easy to function and the pop rate is great and Not a lot of unpopped and no burnt popcorn as the heat level is great. But what even better is that this provides a cheap and healthy and low calorie nutritious snack in front of the tv.

It's basically a hair dryer that heats up the kernels effectively to pop them in a couple of minutes. But the fact it does this without using any oil means you get a very dry, and pretty tasteless popcorn as a result. Perfect if that's what you're looking for and probably the healthiest way to eat popcorn. We tried a butter spray (fry light or something) to add a bit of flavour once popped and that worked a bit. But after a few tries we went back to microwave bags where there is so much more flavour.

Love this! So handy for making popcorn without oil or butter quickly. They also provide a little booklet for flavoured popcorn ideas. Great purchase

This was used 4 times and then stopped working. Waste of money
