The machine is not very big and fits us to a small side table in the kitchen and has been available since also times a week for the small series in the evening use.
The popcorn and the diffusive smell in the kitchen are just great.
The entire duration until the popcorn is ready, I would estimate at about 6-7 minutes. (Incl. Heating of 3min), so you can even sometimes just one serving in the commercial break to prepare without great thing to miss.
However, there is in this machine smaller quirks but I personally find not bad at all, and certainly not worth a star deduction. I want you to list all of them but one, so that future buyers are not "disappointed".
1. The pot is not very big, I would estimate the maximum content with a "normal" or "means" bag out of the cinema. (Power to halt 2-3 servings)
2. After a maximum of three portions of the pot should be cleaned (works best with a Akkupadz or steel wool) otherwise you may well scrub a little longer to get back to clean the pot. However, this applies primarily for neat sugared popcorn here because the sugar quite simply burn to the floor.
3. The machine has a motor of the stirring rod rotates, this is not exactly the quietest of its kind but still quite OK
4. The suspension of the pot feels a bit "shaky" ie at the maximum loading Popcorn he wobbles quite advance back and forth, but because the suspension consists of sheet metal, I do not expect that leads to that early fatigue or other impairments.
My conclusion, if one were to now install even a self-cleaning pot at the sugar even in the long run does not burn and perhaps install a slightly quieter engine would be this device my perfect kitchen appliance of the year. But let's be honest but something is always.
For a normal household this machine by Me is thoroughly recommended, with 2 or more children in my opinion, this machine is too small.
For the future buyer, rejoice on the machine do it super mood to look and taste while doing it too!
