does the popcorn all fall out when you open the door?

It depends on how much popcorn you use. If you use 2.5 ounces it will not fall out. (The plastic insert comes out for easy cleaning).Order the "Great Northern Popcorn, 2.5-Ounce Portion Packs on amazon". It takes 2-3 min to heats up, (wait until the prepackage oil that comes with the portion pack starts to smoke).The perfect portion size for 2.

No. There is measuring cups for oil and popcorn. The amount that is measured is enough to fill the bin inside the popper and so you have no fallout.

No. Even one of the low profile usb drives will keep the door from closing completely.

No, the secret is to follow the directions: Always plug it in, heat it up empty for about 30 seconds, THEN put the popcorn in, turn it back on. Every kernel pops, every time!

The top will stay open by itself if you open it all the way. It does not have hinges that keep it open.

I have done so, though I have to put something in the chute to keep the unpopped kernals in until they start popping, but I think that's my popper. It's really good popcorn.

I understand what you mean. No, the rack does not slide out when you open the door. However, this oven comes with multiple racks and a hand tool to pull out the hot rack when you want to.

Yes...Yes, it stays up, you need to tighten the screws to adjust how easy or hard it is to stay open. If it is loose, the lid will fall down. If it's too tight, you won't be able to open it. Once it's configured, it works great. Over time, you might need to readjust it b/c it might loosen.

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 lid is not see through. However, you turn it off when the popcorn stops popping, and only let it run for the instructed amount of time.

Yes, there are hooks that make the rack slide out when the door is open. That seems to work fine; it can just be a pain when you go to close the door, the hooks do not always catch right, so the rack gets stuck halfway out and you can't push the rack back in by closing the door. You have to push the rack in just a little with a utensil or oven mitt or something so that it is in the right place to catch the hooks. Then you can close the door normally and the rack will slide back in. This is a minor inconvenience, but it is a nuisance when you do it so many times.

Yes. I just tried, and if the little black ends of the lid hinges are pushed, the top stays open! Hey! I didn't even know that! Glad you asked.

Yes it does. Snugly, but you can close the door with them in their respective slot, or stand them up on the top shelf.

Yes, but you don't have to pull them out. They come out automatically when you open the top.

No. You have to pop the popcorn dry and put the butter on the popped popcorn.

We've had ours open on the shelf for 3-4 months and it seems just fine. The only slight change might be that the beta carotene doesn't seem to be coloring the popcorn as yellow, but this may be due to other unrelated factors.

No, but we have not had any problem seeing to put food in or take it out. My son considers it to be a plus as he no longer gets in trouble for leaving the door open.

I didn't have a gap. The for closed fine. I believe it is only to keep the popcorn in.
