At MTS I found a note posted by coolspear1.
There is on a main page of new mod: Longer Decay Rates, More Servings and Faster Eating and Drinking
Link: http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=568072
Note: Indeed, the Popcorn Machine is broken. (Awww, Maxis. Really?) Here's how.
1.) Place down a Popcorn Machine in kitchen.
2.) Never use it.
3.) After about a sim week, is starts to stink!!! As if it were rotten food.
4.) Sims will complain about smell endlessly, but you just won't guess it's an unused appliance causing the stink.
5.) After about another sim week, the game actually deletes Popcorn Machine, mistaking it for stuck, rotten plate/food that sims do not have access to, so have not been able to clean up.
I've tested this on four consecutive cycles now and every time the same outcome. Stinky Machine that finally gets deleted by game. I actually blamed the poor NPC gardener for stealing the two Popcorn Machines the first time they were deleted. But testing the same cycle over and over again has proven the gardener's innocence. I nearly had her arrested, Maxis! Not good, not good at all.
During the fifth cycle of tests, where one machine regularly made and held popcorn, there were no issues with it at all. However, the second unused machine caused same terrific stink and was finally deleted by game once again.
So, either it's broken, or some SimGuru thinks that's a really funny depiction of unused Popcorn Machines
I find it amusing, I've had a few gift appliances that I never used get pretty foul due to manufacturing oils still on them in the box. They don't stink but, the are all gummy with almost a resin like mess on them after a couple of years of sitting around. The gamer time is a lot faster and, kind of hard to show that gummy residue so, stink will do.

Thankyou for posting about the popcorn maker issue. It is helpful to know about the causes of the bad smell /uncomfortable surroundings moodlet and the disappearance of the machine.
Coolspear has also made a post about the issue in this AHQ EA thread
