does the top pop up automatically or do you have to manually open it?

once the striker is depressed, it will automatically open and stay open. It must be manually closed.

The top is suppossed to open automatically when the ignitor button is pressed. However, I have to open mine manually due to improper clearance between the latch that holds the top closed and the cover/top.

It opens on the end by the little click. It took me awhile to figure it out too.

It automatically pops open when you hit print on computer. You can leave it open or close it if you wanted to. I usually close it after it's done printing. Every time I press print it opens up automatically.

It does pop up. It kind of pops up and forward though, so for me, it is not in the way. I can still rest my pointer finger up there behind it.

It's considered a pop up but It needs two people to put it up to pull the sides out as you put up. Fairly easy.

Push the handle end of the lid up with your thumb. It pops up rather easily.

Yes you need to keep turning it manually the entire time it pops. It's fun though and only takes a few minutes once it starts popping. Their movie kit is worth it. Best popcorn I've ever had.

No, the top of the box does not open, just the front panel, but the panel does unlatch from the top and lays down flat which makes it easier to reach the litter box inside to clean and fill.

I believe you actually have to turn the pump part. It will pop up once you do that.

No it doesn't, you have to pull the door closed again. However, if you try and walk through the screen because you didn't realize it was closed it will automatically open, LOL.

It is very easy to open and close the lid. You do have to make sure that when you close it, you push it all the way down or it won't latch completely and will pop open. But, it doesn't just pop open by itself.

You can't use the auto-up feature. Just slightly hold the window up buttons until they close, also, for the first week, I had to physically use my hand to push the window up once it gets to the top, to fully close it too. Things will start working better once it warms up and it sits in the heat for a while or just give it a couple weeks and all will get better.

There is a button on the bottom of the back. Just press it in with fingernail and it pops open.

Yes, but it automatically 'pops' open unless it is held shut with a heavier object.

it's really easy. Just lift the very front lip edge of the top, the silver piece, and it unlocks and opens. It sort of snaps a bit.

Yes the lid opens up. The center top of the lid is a flat plastic piece that fits in to the rest of it. Rotate it slightly and it will pop off. The first time it may be tight. Mine came open after I dropped it on the floor =(:-O) but it was fine afterwards. Take careful note of where everything is - there is a spring that you need to be in place. Once the top is open, you can run water or a brush over it, because yes, it does get that old coffee vibe on it.

Yes. I have issues getting the top to stay on and then opening it. I am not happy with it.
