 My Husband Loves His New Waffle Maker! Nov 22, 2009
I am not a waffle lover, but my husband is, and so I bought him this one because it looked like it would be better at evening out the batter (because of its ability to flip). Not only was it better than our old Hamilton Beach, it far surpassed our expectations. Solidly built, it cooks waffles to a golden perfection, and right to the edge of the grill. An added benefit is the small amount of storage space it takes and the ease in cleaning. Just wipe it off and you're ready to put it away. I highly recommend this appliance. It's perfect for any single, or your waffle loving college student.

 Made good waffles but stopped working after 6 months ... Nov 07, 2009
Made good waffles, fit in tight spaces but I'm giving it 1 star because it failed after 6 months. I have to pay shipping to return it to the manufacturer under warranty ... Not good.
Best Belgian Waffle Iron I've ever owned for 1/2 the cost! Nov 01, 2009
Make your Belgian waffle batter from a recipe, not from a box, and follow the instructions for this as well as the instructions for using this waffle iron and you will be completely satisfied! Waffles cook perfectly and get this, NO MESS!!
I am completely satisfied. Most likely, I will wear this one out as I make waffles very, very often. No worries. I'll buy another in a heart beat.

Excellent Product Oct 26, 2009
To help balance some of the negative reviews,(do people read instructions before they use appliances, I wonder?) I'll add my 2 cents.
I made my first waffles (with this product) last night using Stonewall Farms Pancake and Waffle Mix. I doubled the recipe on the canister and got 3 perfectly browned, crispy, fluffy, delicious waffles. I used exactly 1 cup on the first 2 and a little shy on the 3rd. All 3 came out perfect.
As to the timer: it's handy. I, of course, have other timers in my kitchen, but it was convenient to (following the instructions) pour in the batter, set the timer, then flip the waffle. Just that small amount of time before flipping may make a difference, if not--oh, well. It's just a count-down timer. It does beep when the set amount of time is reached (four times, I think.) The thing is, when making waffles, you don't really go by the amount of time, you watch for the steaming to stop. What is convenient about the timer is, not only that it is conveniently right in front of you when you're pouring and flipping, but when it beeps it brings your attention back to the waffle maker in time for you to watch the steam. I thought it was kind of a nice little extra. I've never before seen a waffle maker with a timer. If you don't like it, don't use it. It has no affect on the on/off function--good thing because cooking time is going to vary according to several factors including what batter you are using.
This was the easiest waffle making experience I've ever had. I was very impressed. Really easy clean-up, too. You just wipe it out--if there is any thing to wipe out. The instructions tell you that if there is a little bit of cooked batter stuck somewhere, you just put a little cooking oil on it to soften it, then wipe it off. I didn't get to experiment with this. Nothing stuck. The waffles came out perfectly. I did, as instructed, brush the grids with cooking oil after it had first pre-heated. It is recommended, for even browning, to use oil rather than spray. I did not need to re-apply it and won't unless waffles begin to stick.
I'm usually kind of compulsive about hot soap and water, but in the case of the waffle iron, as long as there is no material in the grids, any germs will be killed during the initial heating up process.
With this kind of simplicity and success, we will be having waffles much more frequently than ever before.
If you have any of the problems I have read described here, and if you have read and followed the instructions, you must have a faulty product and should return it for a
replacement.
If mine develops problems or dies early, I will update my review. Until then, I highly recommend this product. I couldn't be more satisfied.
