Meet the Cuisinart CPM-28 Classic-Style Popcorn Maker (Red) — a 500-watt countertop popcorn maker that turns out up to 10 cups of fluffy popcorn with no preheating and no fuss. The motorized spinner continuously moves kernels across the nonstick kettle, so each batch cooks evenly and hardly any kernels get left behind. It’s the perfect partner for family movie nights, game-day gatherings, or whenever you want theater-style popcorn at home.
The set comes complete with the popcorn maker, a measuring cup for kernels, a measuring spoon for oil, and a handy popcorn scoop. The nonstick kettle and tilt access door are both removable, which makes pouring out a warm batch simple and speeds up cleanup.
Start by adding oil and kernels to the nonstick kettle—generally 2 tablespoons of oil and 1/3 to 1/2 cup of kernels. Place the kettle on the machine, plug in, and switch it on. The 500-watt heater reaches popping temperature quickly, and the spinner keeps kernels moving for even heat exposure. In about 2–4 minutes you’ll hear the pops slow down; that’s your cue to unplug and tilt the door to serve.
If kernels aren’t popping, check that the kettle is properly seated and the machine is on HIGH. Old or dry kernels will also produce more duds. If you notice scorching, reduce the oil-to-kernel ratio or avoid preheating the kettle before adding kernels. Always unplug the unit before cleaning or removing the kettle.
Once you master classic butter popcorn, try kettle corn by adding 2–3 tablespoons of sugar to the oil before popping, then toss with sea salt. For spicy popcorn, sprinkle on chili-lime seasoning while the kernels are still warm. The gentle airflow of this popper also works beautifully with truffle salt, cinnamon sugar, or garlic parmesan coatings.

From fresh kernels to perfect batches, here’s how to make your classic-style popcorn maker the star of snack time.
Use fresh popcorn kernels for best hull-to-fluff results, and choose an oil with a high smoke point like coconut, sunflower, or canola. Avoid extra-virgin olive oil or butter as the only oil—they can burn at popping temperatures.
After cooling, remove the nonstick kettle and door. Hand-wash them with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge, then wipe the base with a damp cloth. Store the machine with the kettle in place, and keep the measuring cup and spoon nearby for easy batches.
Create a popcorn bar with dry seasonings, flavored oils, or a drizzle of melted butter. Serve directly from the tilt door into a large bowl or individual paper cones for a party feel.
Add oil and popcorn kernels to the nonstick kettle, place it on the base, plug in, and turn on. The spinner moves kernels while the 500-watt heater pops them; stop when pops are about 2 seconds apart, then unplug and tilt to serve.
First, check that the kettle is seated properly and the machine is on. Old or dry kernels are the most common cause of unpopped kernels. Try fresh popcorn and follow the recommended oil-to-kernel ratio of about 2 tablespoons oil to 1/3 cup kernels.
Always unplug and wait for it to cool. Remove the nonstick kettle and door and hand-wash in warm, soapy water. Wipe the base with a damp cloth only; never immerse the base or use harsh abrasives.
Yes! Add 2–3 tablespoons of sugar to the oil and kernels before popping. Toss with sea salt after popping for a sweet-and-salty treat. Avoid opening the top too soon so the sugar doesn’t burn.
No. The 500-watt heater is designed to pop immediately, so you can start right away without a warm-up cycle.
This popcorn maker is so fun. It pops quickly and the nonstick kettle makes cleanup easy. My kids love watching it pop. The red finish is retro and cool.
I remember when my mother used a similar popper. This one works just as well. It makes fluffy popcorn without burning. The spinner is a nice touch. I've used it every weekend since I got it.
It pops fast and the texture is great. But it's noisy.
Fun for parties.
I can make a bowl of popcorn in minutes. The measuring cup is included. I like that it melts butter in the top. Very satisfying.
Best popcorn maker.
The popcorn is good, but the outside of the kettle gets very hot. I burned my finger once. Be careful.
Looks great.
I've tried many popcorn makers, this one is the best. The nonstick kettle means no burnt kernels. The spinner ensures even popping. It's easy to pour into a bowl. The butter warmer is genius. Highly recommend.
The popcorn tends to fly out a bit. But it's fun otherwise.
Professional results.
Nice machine.
