Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

For even waffle cooking I recommend using a flip over waffle maker like this one. I tried the simple non-flip and the bottom is usually much more brown and the top is soft. I tried this one and works great and cooks 1 big 1.5" thick waffle in under 2 minutes. Very easy to use. 1) plug in and let it warm up. wait for green light. 2) pour batter on the bottom groove (once you pour it in it's already started cooking. 3) close and flip it over (don't worry it will not spill out) Once you flip it . the uncooked batter will fall down and start to cook . 4) wait for green light and flip back. open up and take out. Very beautiful I recommend that you try the recipe that is in the book for buttermilk or Belgium waffles...they are really delicious and not that hard to put together. I tried buying those instant mix on Amazon and the home made recipe in the book wins 2nd to none. Plus you're save a lot of $$$ using the recipe and make more... I recommend you buy pam or any other cooking spray and spray gently on the top and bottom plate for easy non-stick cooking. The only downside to owning one of these is that you can't remove the plates for washing. so you have to wait till it's cooled down in order to clean the grooves manually with water or mild soap. It may take you 10-15 minutes to clean it. But that's all part of the fun and worth it. minus 1 star for non removable plate. But for under $50 ...you make like 20 waffles it pretty much pays off. here is a photo of the waffle [...]
