Elite Gourmet Belgian Waffle Maker - Nonstick, Black | Perfect for Breakfast & Snacks

This design makes two waffles equal to the Eggo waffles in the frozen isle, (maybe slightly larger). It takes longer for the waffles to cook than other models I have used in the past. When you first use it, I would recommend throwing away the first two batches (even though the instructions say just the first batch), because they will have a horrible odor and taste. When you first run it, the smell from the burn off odor is horrible. Even though it says that it stays cool, the plastic casing becomes very hot and I fear that it time, the plastic may begin to warp. The handle stays cool, however.I do not feel that this waffle maker will last very long as it appears to be cheaply made. I may be wrong, though. I did not have high expectations as the pricing was very low. For now, it works and I am happy with the cost, and it serves its purpose. ...just consider that "you get what you pay for," when purchasing this. And you may need to wait 10 minutes or more for a set of waffles to be made to your liking.I would recommend as a first waffle maker, for young/single people. If you have a large household and a lot of mouths to feed, I would not recommend.
