Nice and compact griddle that works well for making waffles. The indentions in the waffles I make are deep for pooling the syrup, etc. I played with my griddle a few times to get just the right browning and found (4) to be a good setting for browning the waffles. I would agree from other reviewers the opening lid feels a little shaky, however, I have not had any issues. The scoop is definitely a handy tool that gives a great pour for making the perfect sized waffle.
I am very pleased with my recent purchase of the Cuisinart Round Flip Belgium Waffle Iron. The measuring cup is helpful, the Ready Light serves the dual purpose of Ready to cook, and Ready to eat. I like the temp control so you can choose the preferred darkness of your Waffle. Thanks for another great Cuisinaut product.
We got this as a wedding gift. Never had one, never needed one, but it's fun for breakfast. It gets me excited like those flip waffle makers at buffets or hotel breakfasts. It's easy to use and easy to clean up, so it gets a thumbs up from me.
