How do you get the popcorn out of the machine?

It is an air popper, it blows it out. Just put a bowl underneath the spout.

The popcorn falls out from a vent in the clear plastic part of it. It is pushed out during popping so have some bowls ready!

I'm not sure but I don't think it would come out the same. I think it works best when using oil with the popcorn.

You can use any super thin piece of hard plastic. Or even a toothpick. Start at an edge and gently lift up. Eventually it will pop off in pieces. It's scary, but it works.

We don't use it at all. I actually broke down and bought a new popcorn popper yesterday. The popcorn flies everywhere or gets jammed up and burns. You have to elevate the whole thing because there isn't room to put a bowl under it to catch the popcorn that doesn't fly out or burn. I can't decide if I should donate it so some other poor soul has to deal with it or just throw it in the trash. Its cute but isn't functional.

I have never had that happen. I wonder if it might be the popcorn or the microwave. I would suggest popping the corn on your stove and see if it pops then. I can't imagine the Nordic Ware is the problem. The popcorn should pop just as easily in a brown paper bag.

Hold the bottom with one hand and the top with the other hand then turn the bottom or the top while holding the other part steady. Turn and pull apart at the same time. You have to pull and turn very hard. That removes the base then unscrew the glass container.

The drawer opens from underneath the motor area. Grip underneath and pull it out.

We rent them out and use them in concession stand, we run a couple of cases of popcorn a day, generally we clean it after a weekend, the bottom of unit is removable and the discard tray is also removable so we just clean those items in soapy water in large sink, watch the edges as they are sometimes sharp, I hope this helpsWith a five yr warrenty you can't go wrong

I put a large wooden spoon underneath the front of the popper, leaning it slightly backwards. Anything to prop the front up would work. The wooden spoon just seems to be the right height needed to still allow the popped popcorn to build up and flow out. I remove the spoon once the popped popcorn starts to flow. At the end there's a few unpopped kernels that fly if I don't turn off the machine, hold the bowl up blocking the opening or putting the spoon underneath the backside. I prefer to just turn it off.

Mine has a drawer that pulls out and I just rinse it out with warm water. Then insert it back in machine. I don't see any other way to clean it.

No, absolutely not. The machine pops the popcorn by blowing super-hot air up through the kernels, and pouring anything in other than dry popcorn will ruin the machine. Melt your butter while the popcorn is heating up, and pour it on the popcorn once you get it in the bowl. Hope that helps!

I'm sorry to say that I have no idea where you could get the instructions. I can give you advise on how this item works though. Measure out your own desired amounts of oil and popcorn. I have learned anything more than 2/3 of a cup of kernels over fills the unit when popped and burns the bottom popcorns. I find it best to put in the desired amount of oil (we use a full table spoon of veg. oil) first, then a 1/3 of a cup of kernels on one side of the arm and another 1/3 on the other side of the arm. It takes less than 5 minutes to finish. Take popcorn off of burner right away or it will burn. Hope this helps!

Try prying it open with a screwdriver or a butterknife.try pressing it down then pry up.

You just apply some pressure to the side of the case and push it off. Use a thumb on each end of the right side of the case. It should pop off.

I have no idea! We purchased it as a gift, to use as described-to pop, popcorn!

Just pour in the contents of the 1 oil and 1 popcorn pack, snap on the top, turn on the heat and start cranking. When the popping stops, you're done.
