A whirly popper is under $20. You have to stay with it and have to have good ventilation.

I count 7 Original Popperies on eBay right now. You'll pay more than $3 for them (cheapest I saw was about $35), but that's what they sell for any more.


If you haven't tossed your old non-functioning ones, you may be able to salvage the parts you need to keep one running. I've been doing that for years...

Can you really do this? Because the last two poppers I bought burned out in like three roasts.
