Such an easy tool to use for the perfect family brunch on Sunday. Simple to use for the perfect waffle every single time. Clean up and storage is just as simple!
I made Belgian waffles in a hotel, years ago. Those waffle makers were heavy, slow, and expensive. Now, almost every motel chain that offers free breakfast has a waffle maker setup, where you can make one at a time. Which means I'm always waiting for every kid traveling cross country with Mom and Dad, to make their waffle. Finally, i have my own, which works as well as the motel version, but faster (since i can make 2 at once), tastier (since i pick the recipe).
a tip? find a recipe that has oil in it, and forget the spray (it's messy and so hard to clean).
I am generally happy with this waffle maker. It is quick and efficient, it's awesome making 2 at a time and each time it only takes about 3 min. I like that I can leave the waffle in longer to make it darker, how easy the cleanup is, and the cup that came with it.
The reason it didn't get 5 stars is the beeping. Oh my God why are there so many beeps? 6 when it's warmed, 3 when waffle is ready. Per side. Meaning if you want say one side darker than the other you get 6 (loud!) beeps off one side and 6 off the other. Then 3 once one waffle is ready, and 3 for the other. They are SO loud. If your household is sleeping there is no way they aren't going to be woken up by this machine beeping. And there is no way to modify it.
I have 4 children and this waffle maker allows me to serve a hot breakfast for all to enjoy. It is quick but most important it cooks the waffles beautifully. The 3 beeps indicating that it is done is very helpful especially when I am multitasking. Since Christmas it has been a 3 times a week pull out for use.
This is the 2nd double flip Belgian waffle maker we purchased from Cuisinart. Extremely satisfied with product, and the outcome of the waffles... crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside!
We purchased this waffle maker for a special Christmas morning breakfast. We have since used it several times. It really makes perfect waffles, we have used several different mixes and they all came out amazing. Follow the directions make sure your batter is not too runny and easy as pie you get perfect waffles. Easy to clean as well, even when your husband pours in too much batter and it spills all over. Let it cool then wipe it clean. Would highly recommend.
