Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of West Bend 82306X Stir Crazy 6-Quart Electric Popcorn Popper
Customer Review: The Little Engine That Could
Summary: 4 Stars
Popcorn is my favorite snack.
That said, I used this popcorn maker ten or more years until I gave it away in boredom from its flawless performance...it never failed to make popcorn.
It was easily cleaned...nothing wrong with it, EXCEPT the popcorn was chewy.
It didn't taste like the delicious light and crisp type we get at the movie theater and I tried every brand of popcorn commonly sold in grocery stores...all with the same chewy result.
My guess is the vent holes were not large enough to get ride of the steam, which made the popcorn chewy. As far as I know, the popper is still popping corn some five or more years after I gave it away to a family very happy to have it.
I can and do recommend this popper with the provision that the popcorn is not theater popcorn quality.
Description of West Bend 82306X Stir Crazy 6-Quart Electric Popcorn Popper
This 1000-watt popcorn maker makes 6 quarts of popcorn the fast and easy way.West Bend has improved on the classic corn popper design by adding a motorized stirring rod which ensures that every single kernel pops, every time. In about five minutes, the Stir Crazy Popper produces up to 6 quarts of perfectly popped corn, using one tablespoon of oil per 1/4 cup corn. You can clean it with just a quick swipe of the sponge. For added flavor, place a bit of butter in the butter well to melt over the corn as it pops. The plastic cover doubles as a serving bowl, so when the cycle is done, just flip it over to enjoy popcorn that's guaranteed to be good to the last pop. --Larisa Lomacky Moore
