This popcorn machine is a plastic replica of the old fashioned street corner popcorn stand of the early 1900"s. This convenient tabletop size electric popper uses hot air instead of oil, so it produces a delicious, healthy, low fat snack. A measuring cap assures the proper amount of kernels is poured into the top before the unit is turned on. The popper has a capacity of 3-1/2 ounces of kernels and pops enough corn to please a family, several dorm friends or an office crowd. Enjoy the fresh taste of hot popcorn in minutes.
