Exactly as described! The reasons that I chose this Belgian waffle maker are: 1) has a “ready” light. 2) has a “done” light. 3) comes with a measuring cup, so you don’t ever overfill!! Also cones with removable drip pan ; ) 4) has a dial setting, so you never I overcook or undercook. And can change for other family members. 5) I started using Pam, but it’s not necessary. Waffles slide right out, clean up is quick and easy! An added surprise, instruction book has several recipes I can’t wait to try!
Our experience has been absolutely amazing. Just like those found in a hotel. The maker bakes the waffles well and is easy to clean. We’ve used it 5 times now without issue making anywhere from 2-6 waffles. Wouldn’t hesitate to purchase again. My only gripe is that the line on the measuring cup doesn’t make a full waffle. I fill up between the line and top of the cup. Sometimes a little overflow is necessary to get a complete waffle.
For the price, this is a great waffle iron. In a perfect world, I wish it would get a little hotter and that it had a buzzer alerting you when the waffle is ready.
Tried a few different batter recipes. Don't follow the timer on the waffle maker. It's too short. Not great so far. Going to take a few more tries for me to figure it out.
