Best Popcorn Maker in 2020

Available in an amazing 18 different colorways, so you are pretty much guaranteed to find a hue to suit you, the Salbree silicone solution is a kitchen classic that bags our staff pick. It will cook your popcorn in around three to four minutes. The food-safe silicone bowl collapses down for simple storage, and it has an easy measure at the base to use the correct amount of kernels. Also, there are handles for easy lifting, and the bowl and lid can go in the dishwasher.

This pack of two single-serve (approximately one ounce) microwave popcorn makers is a sleek and modern option from contemporary kitchen brand Joseph Joseph. Made of food-safe silicone, the clever design sees a guide on the base for kernel quants, and the fold-down lid popping up with the corn is done and has expanded to the top of the maker — a perfect popcorn accessory for modern, minimalist kitchens.

Made from high-temperature safe borosilicate glass, this classic container has a three-in-one lid that helps you measure the correct amount of kernels, melt butter while the popcorn's a-poppin' and keep the stuff from exploding everywhere while it does. 100% dishwasher-safe, this three-quart family size option makes popcorn in around three minutes.

If you're a fan of timeless kitchenware that will never go out of fashion, consider Nordic Ware's popcorn popper. Made in the USA from high-density plastic, this strong, quality container can withstand some severe heat and laughs in the face of dishwashers. Just add half a cup of kernels, stick the lid on, dial-up four minutes on your microwave oven and wait for the ping.

Do you want up to three quarts of scrumptious popcorn in as little as two and a half minutes? Of course you do! This is what the epically named "PowerPop" will deliver. The force is strong with the PowerCup bowl and PowerBase concentrator that combine forces to focus your microwave's energy for efficient popcorn heating with very few kernels left over.

For our final choice, we're going traditional with the handsome Original Great Northern Stovetop Popcorn Spinner. Harking back to a pre-microwave era, this is a fun way to make hot, tasty popcorn at home. This pan can make up to five quarts of popcorn with the spinner stirring mechanism preventing burning while the wooden handle and knob prevents you burning.
