I just got it in the mail, I have not used it yet. It is smaller than I thought it would be, I was not thinking it would be Waffle House waffle size but slightly bigger than it is. It is okay, it reminds me of the Kellog waffles you buy frozen. I read the manual, my only concern is how long it takes for the item to cook. It is saying it could take anywhere from 5-10 minutes, and making one waffle at a time, that seems like a long time in the kitchen to make enough for your family when the first waffle would be cold by the time the second one is done. I really hope it is quicker than that. I did like the packaging of the instruction manual, I thought it was a CD at first. I also like how they included recipes for different waffles in the back. I had no idea you could make a pizza waffle or chocolate taco waffle. Very interesting. Can't wait to test out the product.
