Top plate falls off immediately.

Top plate does not stay on when you lift the cover up once it heats up. It just falls off. I haven’t even used it yet. I’m extremely disappointed in this product. My mom had the black and decker waffle maker that was from the early 90’s and it lasted 30 years. It was great. Thick cast iron plates, made perfect crispy waffles. This one came with melted plastic handles and falls apart as soon as you open it. You need oven mitts to hold it together. I’m very disappointed. I just want crispy waffles again. I’d return this one again (the last one was rusty out of the box) but I don’t have the box anymore because I stupidly assumed it would work. I’m trying to attach a video but it’s not letting me.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Bend the spring clamps to keep the plates in place

I had one of these for 30 years, but the waffles started sticking to the plates and I couldn't get replacements - so I bought this one (identical to my 30 year old). As others have noted, the plates are loose or fall off when the appliance heats up, which is not only inconvenient, but also a burn hazard. I was able to fix the problem by bending the spring clamps that hold the plate in so that the plates stay tight when heated. Otherwise, it works just like my original waffle iron. B&D needs to fix the spring clamp issue. Otherwise, I am happy with the product.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I got this waffle/Sandwich maker for Christmas 40+ years ago and it is still working perfect. I just reseasoned the waffle plates, which are still in excellent condition,.and have never had one stick. Thanks B & D
