## Questions people ask

**What does 0.04 litres mean?**

It is the volume of the kernel chamber, about 40ml. The bowl of popcorn it makes is many times larger.

**How do I compare capacities?**

You cannot from these listings. The only conversion published here is the FOHERE's: 100g of kernels makes 3.5 litres of popcorn.

**Does it need oil?**

No, it is a hot-air machine and oil-free.

**Why are there unpopped kernels?**

Buyers report a few, which is normal for hot-air poppers with a small chamber; filling it less than full improves the pop rate.

**Is it noisy?**

Hot-air machines are fans with an element, and this is the lightest of them here at 750g.

**How many ratings does it have?**

862 at the time of collection, averaging 4.2 stars, with 62 per cent five-star and 8 per cent one-star.
