BELLAClassic Rotating Belgian Waffle Maker with Nonstick Plates, Removable Drip Tray, Adjustable Browning Control and Cool Touch Handles, Black

I cannot say anything bad about this waffle iron. It worked perfectly. My first waffle from it is picture below. I came out perfect, except that you need about eight minutes, four on each side to get a really good, brown perfect waffle. I followed the directions on the Krusteaz pancake mix by adding two cups of dry mix to 1-1/2 cups cold water, one egg, 1/4 cup melted margarine (or butter, next time), and 3 table spoons sugar. It made exactly four perfect waffles. They were a little on the soft side when they came out, but I made them a bit crispier by putting them in my air fryer for four minutes at 400.Yes, this iron gets very hot, and yes, you will see steam pouring out the sides during cooking.I prefer to eat waffles like a kid: finger food. Give me a side of melted butter, and a side of maple syrup, and then dip in each to eat. Heaven. I think it is silly to eat waffles like it was a steak! LOL, but that's just me.The manual said a little smoke on first startup, and it did for about two minutes. Then I set it aside for a week, and it was wonderful. Takes about two minutes to preheat. I put it aside unplugged until I need it.Highly recommended. Excellent price and elegant on my countertop, too.Why spend more? Even if it lasts only a year, and I'm thinking it will last a lot longer than that.(a word of caution: don't be tempted to spray Pam or non-stick on it as advised in the manual, as it will mess up the non-stick surface. The butter or margarine in the waffle batter does half the work. And pull your waffle out with your bare hands, and don't use a fork).These waffles cool off in about two minutes, so serve right away, or hold in the oven at 175. You can wrap tight and freeze them like Eggo's for up to four months.Have fun!

Easier than hotel waffle makers. Comes with delicious recipes or you can use your own. Their basic recipe makes three waffles, perfect size/ amount for two. Consistent cook color at each setting. Breakfast in minutes, very simple to use and very easy clean up. Once shown how, kids could use.

Great product...compact size and east to use. Just a spritz of sooking spay and the waffles come out super easy. Cooks fast and has easy to use controls.

We love it works fast and makes awesome waffles, easy to clean and feels like its pretty sturdy. One peeve is when you open the lid to add batter or remove the waffle if feels like the lid is going to slam on your hand (its flimsy and doesn’t lock open)

I waited to write this review until I had used this waffle maker a few times. Today was the 10th time and so far, this waffle maker has worked perfectly! It's easy to load, close, flip and open again! It does a beautiful job making waffles have a slight crunch on the outside while being soft on the inside- it's making waffles as good as at any restaurant or hotel breakfast we have ever experienced. It has a "lighter-darker" dial so you can adjust to get exactly the waffle you want. My pictures show waffles made with the dial set on 2 spaces from the end in the Darker side. These are full size, BIG waffles- the pictures attached show the waffles on a standard dinner plate for reference. Be sure to not use spray non stick oil like PAM on this as it does cause issues in the plates and this is also mentioned in the instructions. I use a basting brush and a touch of olive oil to brush the plates before adding the mix.Overall I feel like it's a good price for a good product. No complaints from me 🙂

Great little waffle maker. Heats up pretty quick and cooks well. The size of the unit is probably my favorite thing as it stores away easy. Takes nothing to operate and cleans up pretty simple as well.

Perfect Belgian waffles! We love the results and the ease of making them at home. I am celiac so enjoying treats like this have to be home made. The fluffy texture of a Belgian waffle is so much better than a standard waffle! I am delighted I finally splurged and got this. We have waffles at least once a week now. Highly recommed this unit.
