I have used these style of popcorn machines for nearly 10 years at home. When I recently moved, I was unable to take the last machine (and stand) with me, so it was about time I could replace my last 16 ounce popper. I was a bit reluctant to try an 8 ounce popper this time, but shipping costs and the machine costs, as well as never trying to the Vevor brand made me want to give the lower cost model a try. I wouldnt give this model 5 stars, but it is actually pretty good for the money. Pros: Low costs, decently packed (made it 8k miles of shipping without even a scratch), easy to assemble (though the manual could be improved on the actual popper, it has more instructions on the cart that wasnt on my model than the popper itself), pops pretty quickly, relatively easy to clean (they are all kind of the same), good amount of popcorn per batch. Cons: Smallish interior cabinet, hard to reach around the kettle without getting burned, initially if you dont adjust the kettle lid - it jams quite frequently, warmer could be more broad in coverage than the back left area, not a 12/16 ounce. Cleaning: For all those reviewers that say the unit is hard to clean, you might not be aware how to clean a popcorn machine of this style. All you need to do to clean the unit is just add about a quarter cup of water to the kettle and turn the warmer on. NO CHEMICALS AT ALL! Do not add anything to the water, no need for special \"kettle cleaners\" etc. Just some plain water in the kettle and let it heat up and create a lot of steam. This will make it very easy to wipe down the inside of the glass and surfaces with just steam and some paper towels, careful not to touch the kettle. When you get through the first amount of water, add a second bit of water to the kettle and possible a couple more paper towels into the kettle and this time turn on the stirrer for a bit. Keep an eye on the unit as you dont want to go too long with this part or run dry of water. You will notice the stea
