Love the simplistic design and ease of cleaning
By Michael Sinz on Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2020
After some waffle making, I have come to love the simplistic design. The fact that this is a flip waffle maker (the only good way to make deep-pocket waffles) that has a simple mechanism that has less complexity and thus less parts to fail is nice. I also really appreciated the ease of cleanup - the waffle plates come out easily and yet are held securely when in use. For the fist use, I followed the directions of plugging it in and letting it heat up for 10 to 15 minutes to allow some of the "factory new" smell and smoke to clear before making the first waffle. Do not forget to do this as not doing that could likely impact the flavor of the first waffle. An annoying bit is the seam between the waffle maker and the plastic that holds the waffle maker to the pivot mechanism. I wish it were molded in a bit better such that it would not have any particles at the seam. Also, the drip plate under it is just barely as large as the waffle maker. If you end up having a bit too much batter in a waffle, the drip-out could get beyond the drop plate. (We had one waffle that had a small amount of drip but that tiny amount was caught by the drip plate - so it is only a concern and no actual experience) This is not industrial strength - but for family use it seems to be well made. I would expect it to last quite some time. (Many years)

Good design with fair manufacturing execution!
By T. Farner on Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2021
*UPDATE After 1 month (approx. 30 uses). 2 of the light covers broke and fell out. I used JB Weld to replace them. JB Weld can take high temperatures. Doesn't look great but it works. As stated below... great design but poor execution and inferior parts. I cannot understand the 5-Star ratings. Unless they were written and never updated. I waited about a month to be able to give a very accurate review. This had ALL the options and functions that I wanted in a waffle maker. So here it is... Pros: 1) The Teflon-coated plates are removable which makes them easy to clean. 2) After figuring out the exact amount of batter to use (just barely cover the entire bottom plate), it became very easy to clean. 3) The Flip function is very handy in getting the batter distributed evenly. Cons: 1) Like most foreign-made off-brands, the No-Stick coating is very, very thin and can scratch off just by gently setting one plate on top of another in the sink. I see this becoming a BIG problem quickly. 2) Taking the black base off and putting it back on CAN pinch the cord if you are not careful. 3) Oil seems to be getting in behind the silver outside cover. It isn't properly sealed. It hasn't caused any problem yet... but I see it being the probable cause of the next Con. 4) I have NOT had this problem yet, BUT, it has been a major complaint on this particular item... the lights falling out of the silver outer casing. If the problems mentioned with the design and materials were fixed... I'd pay twice the price for this waffle maker and give it 5-Stars! As-is... I won't replace this maker with the same model. I'll look for something very similar, only made with better materials and a manufacturing process. *Update #2! After 5 months, my prediction came true. The lights quit working and the heating has become unreliable! The availability for oil to get to the parts has finally sent it to the Waffle Maker graveyard. $10 a month is what it cost me to make waffles with this cheaply made appliance. There are much better and more reliable offers out there. The most disturbing thing is after the waffle maker stopped working, I opened it up and found that my initial fears were worse... a fire hazard. I highly recommend you choose something else!
