This does not make a lot of popcorn. Think of it as single serving. It doesn't even fill one of the small paper popcorn bags, but that's fine. It pops quickly to make mulitple batches.
You'll probably need two sets of times for this, the time for when it's just popcorn and the time for when there is butter in the top section. The butter drops as the popcorn pops, which makes it distribure evenly, which is wonderful, but which pulls away some of the heat. In my microwave, it's 2:30 just popcorn and 2:45 for popcorn with butter, to give you an idea. It's not a huge difference, but if I don't give those extra fifteen seconds, a lot of the kernals don't pop.
That said, it's really consistent, and once you have your two times, you can just reuse them, no issue. Even if you do two batches back to back, the time is the same.
It is critical that the turntable in the microwave actually be turning while you're using this, or the best case is the popcorn just won't pop. The instructions say it can damage that microwave. I lucked out, but ended up with a kettle of hot, unpopped kernals, save for two or three.
My only complaint about this is it makes buttered popcorn so quickly, so easily, and so well I'm probably eating more of it than I should.

A Great Way to Enjoy Popcorn
The Micro-Pop microwave popcorn popper puts you back in control by offering a healthy way to make popcorn. Bagged popcorn is filled with harmful chemicals that can negatively affect you and your family. The Micro-Pop features a temperature safe borosilicate glass bowl that is safe to use. Just place your kernels in the bowl and microwave for a couple minutes for fresh, delicious popcorn.
Save Time, Money and the Landfill
Gone are the days of buying bagged popcorn with artificial flavors and colors. Save time by making less trips to the grocery store and save money by buying popcorn kernels in the jar vs. the pre-packaged popcorn. Using the Micro-Pop also helps our landfills by eliminating the wax-coated disposable bags from pre-bagged popcorn that can take a long time to decompose.
Easy to Clean
The Micro-Pop popcorn maker, lid and borosilicate glass bowl are dishwasher safe for fast and easy clean-up.
How to Make a Delicious Bowl of Popcorn Using the Micro-Pop Popcorn Popper

The lid serves as a convenient measuring tool for your kernels. For the 1.5 quart Micro-Pop, use one lid full of kernels for a bowl of popcorn. For the 3 quart Micro-Pops, use 2 lids full of kernels. You can also add less kernels to the bowl if you wish to enjoy a smaller amount of popcorn. |
Drop the measured kernels into the bottom of the popper and place the lid on top to go in the microwave. |
This step is entirely optional, but the perforated lid can be used to melt butter or margarine over your popcorn while it pops. The lid allows to butter to melt through the holes and distribute evenly over the kernels. |
Please note that microwaves vary greatly. Make sure you are listening to the pops while your microwave is making the popcorn and stop the microwave once the pops get to be 2 seconds apart. Some microwaves may require more time, while others require less time. |
A fast and easy way to make microwave popcorn.
Tips to getting your popcorn just right:
- Not all microwaves work exactly the same, so play with the timing until you get it just right. Experiment a little- your microwave may cook the popcorn faster or slower than the 2:30-3:00 average! If your precious popcorn is getting burnt when adding butter prior to popping, try adding the butter after all those kernels have transformed into beautiful puffed popcorn.
- Always use fresh popcorn kernels. Store your popcorn in an airtight container. Refrigeration is not recommended.
- Stopping and starting your microwave during the cooking cycle is not recommended. Once you stop the microwave, the steam buildup in the center of the kernel, which causes the popcorn to pop, will cool off and never reach the desired temperature to re-pop. If you restart the microwave you also risk burning the already popped popcorn. Using the sound test is the best way to determine if your popcorn is done. If there are more than two full seconds between pops, it’s time to stop.

It works well enough to use it.
Experience will teach you what to do and not to do. For instance, when you add oil into the device before popping corn, the corn pops slower, and it does not pop as fluffy as if you pop it when the kernels are just dry. Also, melting butting in the lid while popping results in a less fluffy finished popped corn (in my experience). After popping, leave it for a few minutes to cool off! It gets very hot! No matter what settings I use, I can never get all the kernels to pop, but it is still okay. All-in-all, I like it.

We will no longer be using the popcorn bags to make popcorn. This popcorn microwaveable bowl is durable and easy to use. It is also easy to clean up. You can customize your popcorn. The kids love to make their own popcorn too!
