Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've owned a breakfast restaurant for 10 years. I've learned over that time that I HATE waffle makers. They just don't hold up to commercial use, the top or bottom element dies. WOW, I just looked at my Amazon purchase history and I've purchased 19 Waring waffle makers since 2006, and 16 other brands including, Gold Medal, Star, Carbon, and Kitchenaid. These units have ranged in price from $800 down to $99. After the $800 units die in a few months, I vow to never get burned again and I buy the $99 units that vary in life from 2 weeks to 2 months. Then after 5 or more of the $99 units die I think that maybe I should try the $800 units again. So this time I thought I'd try this unit here, the Waring Commercial WW200 - which is mid way between the $800 and $99 units. I bought this unit in September of 2013. It died in January 2014. (side note - I purchased the extended warranty on this machine for $37.98 - guess what? That warranty doesn't kick in until AFTER the Waring warranty expires - I've never had a Waring unit make it to 6 month mark) Ok- back to the story. So this unit died in January 2014. I had to call Waring who DID send out another unit promptly - thank you. TODAY... that unit died, and I'll call Waring in a minute. So... the bottom line for this review is this. If you use these units for your home, you are "golden". If commercial, expect about 2 months. I wish Waring would let me buy a case of elements - then I could start fixing the 19 bad units (kidding, I don't keep them) and save a ton of money - wait a minute... What am I thinking? I shouldn't waste my time fixing waffle makers, I should be selling food and running my business.
