Looks cheap (which is bad sign ???) what and where is the heating element.

Fill the tray with buffalo chips and fire it up.

It almost made me laugh.

The seller claims it is capable of a 1.3 lb roast. That is not a plausible claim. I believe you would be disappointed. Save that $100 and put it toward a Gene Cafe or Hottop, or if mechanical look at Peter's SC/TO set up.

I note also that the description calls for 220V and I cannot figure out what sort of North American socket the plug would fit. Philosophically, the concept looks like the guts of a Behmor without the housing or electronics.

Looks like if you remove the tray it would fit nicely over a gas stove burner. I'd forget it tho and but your money towards an actual roaster. You can make this out of an empty can attached to a cordless drill. For $100 just run 4 poppers in sequence :P

I was looking for Behmor or Hottop and I found that one...
I didnt get it also how does work so I was intrigued I wouldn`t put money towards that crap for sure,I like my popcorn setup for now but I`m I would like to be able to do around 1lb t the time and that`s why I was looking for something new ....
