bella Classic Rotating Belgian Waffle Maker with Nonstick Plates, Removable Drip Tray, Adjustable Browning Control and Cool Touch Handles, Stainless Steel

The item is easy to use and the waffles come out great. They cook up quickly, so rapid firing off a few waffles is no challenge. If you carefully load it, the mess is absolutely minimal, and the nonstick interior works well. From my first waffle to my 20th I've yet to burn one and they consistently come out just right whether i follow the built in timer's indicator light or just my intuition. The waffle size is full and large.

Love this Belgium waffle maker!!! Perfect waffles, EZ to work & cleans easily

This is a very good product for a very reasonable price. It does not come with any spatulas so get a nylon tool to remove your flapjacks.

I have purchased both this (in stainless steel) and the BLACK+DECKER Flip Waffle Maker, WM1404S . Ultimately I recommend the Black & Decker one instead. Functionally, they work identically. They produce the same size waffles with the same pattern, the locking mechanism works basically the same, they both have the same folding handle, they both have a drip tray that can be slotted in vertically for convenience. I measured the temperatures and temperature evenness of the hot plates with an IR thermometer and they're similarly identical -- heating until 450°F, stopping heating until it goes down to 350°F, then turning heating back on until reaching 450°F. In fact, the two products are so similar that I have to assume they're made in the same factory in China. And the one functional difference them *seem* to have actually isn't -- the temperature control on the Bella (which the B&D lacks) has no purpose. I mean, it works. But there is simply no situation when you're making waffles where you don't want the maximum heat, where you don't want them to start out at 450°F. However light or dark you prefer your waffles should be determined exclusively by how long you leave them in. Lighter waffles should be done with less time, not a lower temperature. A lower temperature will only result in an undercooked interior. So the fact that the Bella has a temperature knob isn't a pro in any way, but it is one more thing that can break -- so it's actually a con, albeit a small one. But, so why do I recommend the Black & Decker instead? Quite simply, it looks much better in the kitchen. The Bella is made of glossy-smooth stainless steel, and a glossy-smooth plastic support that looks flimsy. It just looks kind of... cheap. Whereas the Black & Decker is made of *brushed* stainless steel, and a *matte* plastic support that looks and feels far more substantial. If you have a modern kitchen, then your fridge/dishwasher/oven/toaster oven/etc. are probably all finished in *brushed* steel. So the Black & Decker just "fits in" nicely. Whereas the Bella just looks cheap and unattractive. Matte finishes are just more attractive than glossy ones, generally speaking. If you don't care about looks, then just pick whichever one is cheaper -- they will make identical waffles. But if you want this to look good in your kitchen, then I completely recommend the Black & Decker instead.

Love this waffle maker. Love that the handle folds up so it can store a little easier. Quality is what expected. Easy to use, easy to clean and cooks the waffles great!

Seemed a little flimsy, but then I'm comparing it to the hotel models that probably cost 5 times as much. Definately did the job, made nice waffles, heated fast, and didn't stick.

Nonstick, easy to use and clean, love the ready light to know it’s done; good quality for money

Adequate. Waffles are a little thicker than what I anticipated them to be. Not as crispy as I want at the darkest setting. But that’s my personal taste. I throw them in the air fryer to get that extra crispy I like.
