Product Description Waffle Iron with Fork
|
| Customer Reviews: I like it. May 16, 2010 R. Nielsen I was kind of waffling (yeah, I know) about whether to get this or the more popular Belgian waffle model, and I think I made the right choice. This thing isn't pretty (and neither are the waffles), but it's easy-- you just heat and grease it up, throw on 3/4 C or so of batter, leave it shut until it stops steaming (maybe 5 or 6 minutes) and voila! You've got a nice crispy waffle that you can slather with jam, fold twice, and eat the go if you're in a hurry. Plus this thing is a snap to clean. So far I've never had any waffles spill or stick; I just give it a half-hearted once-over with a rag and it's good to go.
Maybe this doesn't make the best waffles I could dream of, but they work.
Durable, cost effective, great little Waffle Maker! October 1, 2006 theoriginalsubguy (Florida) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This is a great waffle maker.
As far as durability, I think it is best to say that mine has hundreds of hours on it and is still as good as the first day I used it.
I use a cooking spray (butter flavored Crisco works best for me) and have never ever had a waffle stick. I did try to rely on the non-stick coating once, and that is NOT a smart thing to do. That is true of any waffle iron I have used. Use a cooking spray!
This device is 650 watts (about 5.5 amps on a 120V U.S. electric outlet). This is good, because most (check your own first) kitchen circuits can handle 15 or 20 amps. I use both the older on and this one at the same time. If you have the 20-amp circuit, you could use three!
I stated that I use two, because using two of these inexpensive waffle makers is much faster than using a large griddle multi-waffle iron. My friend has one of those, four at a time, waffle makers, but each of the four waffles is a bit small. Some of those big waffle-makers cost 60-100 dollars. Get your self two of these models instead. Trust me. It is faster and cheaper. The other bonus is that the chance of both irons being broke the same day is slim, and even if one breaks (unlikely though) it will mean that you lose only 20 bucks, and that you can still make the kids or yourself waffles with the remaining one! I don't like putting my eggs all in basket so to speak.
I have a fully stainless kitchen, but a waffle maker is usually something I put back in the cabinet, so the white and red finish doesn't phase me.
Well good luck with yours, and I hope that you save some money and get these instead of the big fancy ones that make good waffles too, but cost more and have stainless steel exteriors.
[HINT: Be careful and you can flip this entire device upside down if you desire that feature in a waffle iron. I do it in a glass pie pan so it can't slip off the counter. It is not designed for that, but nevertheless, some people insist on flipping the iron, and it can do it with no batter leakage or threat to the durability of the unit, just be careful.]
UPDATE: They now make the model 26500 (I have both this one and the newer 26500) which makes thicker BELGIAN style waffles. Most people like the thicker ones more, but the irons are exactly the same except for the depth of the cooking area and the newer model has a 3 prong electrical plug. This older model is a bit easier to clean, although neither is a hassle at all.
