Customer Reviews for Nostalgia Vintage 2.5 oz. Red Popcorn Machine with Cart

The instructions for assembly were poor but after it is done you end up with a beautiful nostalgic popcorn maker that everyone wants to use. The machine makes great tasting popcorn because you can use the popcorn oil that is flavored or just use vegetable oil. The machine comes with three plastic utensils that are used for 1 oz oil 1/3 cup of kernels and the popcorn scoop. When you turn on the machine there is a light so you can see the popcorn area and the kettle. There is a door under the machine for storage plus if you wanted to place just the top on a counter it just removes with two spring clips. The only down side is that it is hard to clean with all the nooks and glass area so it is easier to throw a bag in the microwave so I would say this is for company when you need to make a lot of popcorn that the kids and adults will enjoy.

My 6 1/2 year old son saw this in a store before Christmas & begged my Husband & I for it. It was one of the only things he asked for from Santa. So we found it the cheapest at HomeDepot.com! He was so excited when he saw it next to the tree. I bought all the accessories to go with it too. We have it in our family room & we use it frequently! It is awesome!

Heard my granddad wanted one of these, so I purchased it for him as a Christmas present. He put it together right away and started using it and loves it. The popcorn tastes great and fresh!

Product arrived fast in excellent condition

Need smaller hands to operate machine. It would be better if you could load from the top. The build was easy and straight forward. The kids liked the popcorn

Very nice, didn't know how small it was. Otherwise it's cute! Works well !

From the reviews I really thought I would enjoy this machine.. NOT....very disappointed.

Easy to assemble works and looks great

If you have some room, this is a great purchase for entertaining guests, movie nights, etc. The vintage look of it is definitely a conversation starter and brings back some nostalgia. The storage area is a big plus. Nothing is better than fresh popcorn not from a microwave. We have used this for movie nights for our daughters with their friends and it is a much loved item. It is a bit messier than microwave popcorn but the taste is far better.

We actually love our new popcorn machine, but a week ago the screw came out of the door and the door was left hanging.I was very embarrassed because I was entertaining guest and they saw this unfortunate incident. But over all the popcorn maker is great! Wish it came with some popcorn.

This popcorn maker is the thing to get, especially if you love popcorn and have a little room. Although it's ornate, the assembly is pretty quick and easy. More importantly, it makes good quality popcorn. The design is fun and attractions, so you get a built in conversation piece. The design somehow seems to help the wafting of the wonderful smell, as well. Great if you're movie buffs like we are, but I imagine this would be really cool, too, if you're into sports (for a super bowl or world series party).

The cart has a good weight and it is balanced. You want have to worry with it falling over. We didn't have a problem putting the cart together and all of the parts were included. After reading the instructions, I viewed a Youtube video showing the use of this model. There is a recipe section for four styles of popcorn. The cart is 48in tall and 2.5 ounce kettle makes up to 10 cups of popcorn for each batch. You will notice that the popcorn taste better from this popper than the bagged popcorn purchase from the store. I have two grandchildren, and they just love the idea that they can make quality popcorn at home while viewing movies or playing video games. A storage compartment is part of the cart. There is an On/off switch. This popper should give you many years of use. We are very pleased.

I was looking for a Vintage Collection 48 in. Popcorn Cart in Red with White Detailing and decided on this one. I am so happy I did. This is such a great product. It works very well. It has storage for all your popcorn needs (popcorn kernels, oil, etc).This popcorn cart also looks great. The popcorn smells and taste so good too. This is definitely an asset to my household. I love this popcorn machine.

this Pop Corn machine is nice for a children's play room I would buy one for any commercial use because it is quite slow for any cooking the wattage is low which causes time consuming for any application other than home use. I have young grand children that comes over and have a great time using this pop corn machine while watching movies and playing video games. It is a nice addition and safe from accidental burning the youths.

The overall over quality for the money was good. The kettle size is very small compared to what I'm used to. I would suggest if you have more than 2 people eating popcorn, go to the 4 oz size instead.

Awesome popcorn machine I bought one 2 years ago and just bought one for my parents for Christmas

does what its supposed to very well. mixer was scraping bottom of bowl. very easy fix loosen set screw and adj.

I researched many websites to find the best deal, and I saved at least $50 by purchasing it at Home Depot. It's the exact same model for so much less. I really like that it's free-standing to give that old-time movie theatre feel. It has great storage and makes good popcorn quickly!

It looks cute, and the corn will pop, but you will spend a lot more time trying to clean this product than you will enjoying the popcorn. The used oil and unpopped kernels are in every crevice, and if you don't get them out you'll soon have a rancid mess.

I bought this as a gift for a friend who loves popcorn..we were very disappointed...half of the popcorn kernels popped out with the popcorn and the popcorn was cold...I bought this hoping the popcorn would stay warm but within a minute of popping the corn was very cold...
