Video at Amazon.com See power popcorn as I want it, afterwards without much effort and no "cleaning orgies". It is only necessary that the cover gets very hot, that is, if the popcorn is done simply wait or the cover with a cloth (or similar) fall by the tank should be drained completely. (There remain a few Due to the principle "raw" corn left, but not very many). The popcorn machine is not really quiet but of "crashing" I can not talk and in my view not a point deduction also. The process takes about 5 minutes. My reviewer's video (s. Appendix) is to "uncut" that you get an accurate idea how long the process takes.
