Cuisinart CPM-900BK Review
Cuisinart CPM-900BK Review by D. Whitaker (Des Moines, Iowa)
I got this popcorn popper as a gift for my wife, who regularly fixes popcorn as a snack. This product looks great in the store -- solidly built, with a steel base, a heating surface that separates from the base and that is dishwasher safe, a cover that becomes a popcorn bowl, and an auto shutoff feature to prevent burning. And its made by Cuisinart! What's more, it makes great popcorn... for as long as it lasts -- which in our case was two days.
The heating surface and the base are poorly designed, so that it is not easy to get them to mate together. The prongs on the heating surface have to be placed in slots in the base that you cannot see when trying to fit the two pieces together. In addition, the red cap you place over the steam vents on the cover/bowl before turning it over doesn't fit well and has to be forced into place -- so you place the heating surface on the base imperfectly, mash down the red lid onto the cover to get it to fit, and voila! You've broken the prongs on the heating surface and snapped off a piece inside one of the slots in the base.
It's a shame, because I have the feeling looking at this thing that with a little more thought and a little different design it could have been a terrific product. As it is, it's an enormous waste of money. Do yourself a favor and buy either a Stir Crazy or a Whirley-Pop -- we've now got both, and either one works better than this design disaster.

I gave this unit 1 star because in the course of a few of months I've had two now that have broken. Here's how it works when it breaks: you call customer support, they give you attitude, grill you as if you've done something wrong, they charge you $10 to ship the replacement unit and then you have to ship the broken unit back - so ~$20 to get a replacement for something under warranty. What breaks? There are 3 main pieces to the unit: the plug-in base, the heating element, and the bowl. The heating element detaches from the base, a very nice feature, but after about a month on the first unit the handles and clip that attach to the base broke. After another couple of months on the replacement the heating element stopped heating.
From a looks and *appearance* of built quality I'd give this unit 5 stars. But I think even with the vents in the top it still retains a little too much moisture. I think this keeps the popcorn from being as light as it could be. This is what I mean by good, but not great popcorn.
I've tried a lot of poppers over the years and I've learned that good popcorn matters a lot. My favorites are from [...] and Paloma De Colores (sometimes amazon sell this). Also, I've made my best popcorn with a whirly pop and just a pot on the stove. Problem with the whirly pop is they're a pain to clean and gets "icky" after a while, problem with the pot is that it's "interactive" (you have to shake it).
It's a nice looking appliance, the 3-piece design is a good idea, you can legitimately put what needs to be cleaned in the dishwasher. But you can easily double the cost of the unit in paying for shipping of replacements and you'll have to deal with very poor customer support. I'm now searching again...
