We bought our Toastess air popcorn maker on sale as a final sale. Little did we know it was inefficient, only ever popping half of the kernels we put in, and scattering popped and unpopped kernels around our kitchen. After seeing this video, Toastess sent me instructions to disable our $15 popcorn popper and send photographic proof I'd done so then a replacement would be on its way. More than a month and two inquiries later, I learned the replacement was withheld because it turned out they needed a receipt, which I admit I disposed of after I bought the popper. So, no receipt, and a disabled popcorn popper and no replacement unit.

Tired of waiting, we bought a Cuisinart popper last night.

Appliance to Toastess for examination. Plug the Popcorn Maker into the outlet and switch the unit to. Booklet_TCP-615Y_ENG:TCP-6L Booklet_VHR 5/28/09 5:47 PM.

Under-fillingthe Cup can cause fewer kernels to pop and more kernels to come out from the chute during popping. Over-fillingcan cause the kernels to burn and smoke. IMPORTANT: - DO NOT ADD OIL OR BUTTER TO THE POPPING CHAMBER. - NEVER POP KERNELS WITHOUT COVER. The Measuring Cup can be used as a butter melting cup if buttered popcorn is desired. Place up to 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of butter or margarine into the Measuring Cup then place back in position on top of the Cover. The butter will melt when the popcorn is popping.
