Whirley Pop Stainless Steel 6 Quart Stovetop Popper

This is certainly 5 star. We love it! We tried the packet of popping corn it came with first. Then popped our own plain corn with some coconut oil. Absolutely perfect! Very happy with this and highly recommended, we have the induction model as true to the instructions popcorn done in 3-4 minutes. You just wipe out after and it’s ready for the next use.

After years of disappointing popcorn from our air popper, I decided to give the Whirley Pop popcorn maker a try. I went with the stainless steel model for the thicker base that works better for kettle corn and is also equipped with metal gears for durability. Following the included directions, I seasoned the pot and proceeded to make our first batch with the included all-in-one popcorn packet. After a short period of time the wonderful sound and smell of movie theater popcorn was in the air. The Whirley Pop worked wonderfully and produced great popcorn with only a few kernels left unpopped. The next batch, I decided to try my hand at kettle corn, using a simple recipe of 1/4 cup neutral oil, 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 cup Amish XL popcorn. Setting the stove heat level to medium, I added the oil and three kernels, when those popped, I added the rest of the popcorn and waited until I heard those kernels start to pop before adding the sugar. After dumping into a bowl, I added a little salt and tossed to harden the sugar which produced a delicious kettle corn, just like you get at the fair! The Whirley Pop is a great product, it is simple to use, cleans up easily and spinning the handle is quite interactive and fun! I would highly recommend the Whirley Pop as a gift to family, friends and especially yourself. Get one, you won't be sorry!

Makes the best popcorn and every kernel pops. Great machine.

We purchased this particular Whirly Pop Popcorn Maker to use on our new induction stove top. Being stainless steel it is heavier than our old aluminum Whirly PPM but this is not a problem. It is well built and makes wonderful popcorn in minutes. Cleanup is quick and painless. You won't be disappointed.

This stainless steel popper makes a world of difference. And it works on an induction stove where my aluminum one did not
