" ... Last time I tried to clean it I was using qtips and toothpicks and there still were big cooked chunks of sneaky waffles inside the unit. ... "
" ... The waffles come out great and really like having removal grates for cleaning. ... "
" ... Taking the waffle and pancake plates out of the appliance makes clean up so much easier than my other waffle makers (I have 4 other styles). ... "

" ... Unfortunately the 2nd time we used it the handle broke off. ... "
" ... The Cuisinart model has panels that are secured by a magnet when properly placed. ... "
" ... Like another reviewer stated, it comes with ONE rubber 'foot peg', the other three are missing and will scratch your counter. ... But rather than disappoint my granddaughters I propped up the other 3 legs and trudged on. ... "
" ... It has pre-molded indentations to pour the batter in and, if you don't put just the right amount, it spills over. ... "
" ... Cord storage leaves it loose and falling open. ... If one follows the instructions, spills are few and small but do happen, and I would suggest some kind of overhand or similar protection at places where a drip would either be tough to clean or ruin something, like over the setting dial, the buttons to release the plates, etc. ... "
" ... Cheaply constructed for $77. ... "
" ... We bought this unit to replace our old WAF-150, as the non-stick finish was wearing off after many years of use. ... The removable plates are thin and seem cheap. ... "

" ... The waffle iron is easy to use: you just turn it on, let it heat up, add batter, close lid and it will beep for when your waffles are ready! ... "
" ... Heats up fast, registered waffle cooked long before it browned or crisped, but I'd over filled it and some mix leaked out before done, despite trying to keep the level of the batter to just fill to cover the square imprintations. ... "
" ... Love being able to put the heating plates in the dishwasher. ... "
" ... Golden and evenly heated. ... "
" ... I am very glad to have stepped-up from the $35 units that do not stay hot. ... "
