The Nostalgia Electrics Retro Kettle Popcorn Maker is Great. It needed little assembly and was easy to put together. This is very simple and really easy to use. My 8 & 12 year olds can even use this and make popcorn quick and easy. This makes theater style popcorn in the comfort of your home, perfect for movie night or any and everyday. All you have to do is add popcorn cooking oil and popcorn with the measuring cup and spoon provided. You can hear the popcorn popping. Just make sure that when the popcorn is done popping, you turn it off or you can burn the popcorn. Burning the popcorn doesn't happen unless you leave it unattended or are not paying attention. (It tells you in the direction to turn the unit off after popcorn stops popping infrequent or stops completely.) After the popcorn is done, you just flip the kettle over with the crank handle to empty. You can have it plain for a healthy option, add butter and salt or your favorite seasoning after the popcorn is done. If you want to make more, then just repeat the steps again until you have the desired amount. This unit has a warming light to keep your popcorn hot too. Clean up is simple and easy. After the unit is unplugged then you can wipe it with a slightly damp cloth to clean it inside and out. It is recommended to clean the kettle regularly by using hot,soapy water to control grease build up and prevent smoking during popping sessions. I can tell you that my children made popcorn one night and I didn't clean the kettle out until a few days later and it cleaned up pretty easy. (This is not recommended though.) The Retro Kettle Popcorn Maker is designed in appearance to look Retro but is a technologically advanced kettle popcorn maker that makes fresh, hot popcorn eveytime.
