I bought it a few weeks ago and have only used it once. I like the size of it as it is easy to store. I have arthritis really bad and it is easy for me to use. Would have been nice if it had included a Cuisinart utensil to get the waffle out. That is being picky. I really like their products and have their can opener and toaster. Yes, it’s a good product
I make buttermilk- buckwheat waffles with 100% buckwheat. This iron works well for them. I gauge degree of doneness based on steam rising from the waffle iron rather than the indicator light. These take a little longer to cook than other waffles. I am a little concerned about the hinge… It seems flimsy. Only time will tell. I’ve made four batches of waffles and the iron has performed well.
I got this waffle maker as a replacement to one that always leaked. This Cuisinart round waffle maker is the absolute best. No leaking unless you overfill, perfect size for one, your choice of doneness. If you're looking for a new or replacement waffle maker you can't go wrong with the Cuisinart - Round Classic Waffle maker :)
This is my third one of these waffle irons. I have learned NOT to oil the grids. I ruined 2 previous ones by doing so. This one will last a lot longer I'm hoping--the other ones lasted 2 years each. The control works well; all in all a great waffle iron for those of us who prefer regular-sized waffles.
