[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used it a couple of times now, and waffles turned out great. No sticking at all. Easy to use. For me the waffle maker seems sturdy, though no idea what the older models looked like. I would prefer slightly crispier waffles, but that may be due to the recipe I used. I will experiment with other recipes to see what happens. Originally bought it because it was on sale.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have a family of 7 and the double platen gives us plenty of waffles, in a reasonable amount of time. It is consistent and easy to use. Our kids enjoy making the waffles. I will note that the included measuring cup is 3/4 of a cup, so that if it were to every break it get lost you don't have to guess and make a mess!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Makes great waffles, but the green lights letting you know the top or bottom waffle is done could be brighter. There is a beep letting you know a waffle is done but it could be for the top or bottom waffle.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is our Third flip Cuisinart Waffle maker , not because they break fast ! It is because we love Waffles Crispy on the outside and soft inside so we set the waffle iron on High! Every double flip Cuisinart we have had has come with improvements this newest one is so easy to clean, removable tray on base under the flip iron and no exposed wiring that was hard to keep oil and pancake batter clean! Thank you Cuisinart you are making a Great product
So far not overly impressed. I’m comparing this to the waring pro I had to replace. I bought this based on all of the reviews. Hopefully things get better. One thing that is irritating is the length of time it takes to heat up.

We're sorry to hear the Double Flip Belgian Waffle Maker has not made the impression you were hoping for so far. Please keep in mind that Waring is our commercial line of appliances, while Cuisinart products are designed for home use, so differences in heating performance and operation may be noticeable. To help improve preheat times and cooking consistency, we recommend allowing the unit to fully preheat until the ready indicator signals and ensuring it is plugged directly into a wall outlet rather than an extension cord. Thank you for sharing your feedback; your comments are valuable to us and help support our ongoing product improvements and consumer experience.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] On the good side it does make good crispy Belgium waffles. I think for the price these could be built a bit better. There is a lot of plastic, just like the cheaper ones. The problem is, the next step up is several hundred dollars.

We're pleased to hear that it's producing crispy, great-tasting Belgian waffles, though we understand your concerns about the amount of plastic used in the construction compared to your expectations.
