Presto Orville Redenbacher's Stirring Popper

The popper has a 6-quart capacity, which yields up to 21 cups of popped corn per batch. This is generally enough to serve a small group or a family movie night.

Yes, the built-in butter melter is designed to melt butter as the popcorn pops, allowing it to drip evenly over the kernels. For best results, use room-temperature butter cut into small pieces.

The nonstick coating makes cleanup straightforward, as kernels and residue typically wipe away easily. However, you should avoid using metal utensils, which can scratch the surface and degrade the nonstick properties over time.

Yes, the transparent lid is specifically designed to double as a serving bowl. Once the popping cycle is complete, you simply flip the unit over and lift the base off, leaving the popcorn ready to serve in the bowl.

The unit is designed for compact storage. The base nests directly inside the cover, reducing the overall footprint to about 10.25 inches in height, which fits easily into most standard kitchen cabinets.

The motorized, scalloped stirring arm is essential for moving kernels around the heating surface. This constant motion ensures even heating and significantly reduces the number of unpopped kernels compared to air poppers or standard stovetop methods.
