I went through 3 Belgian waffle makers and finally bought this Cuisniart flip. It’s great, easy to use, cooks waffle quick and perfect. I like that i can change how light or dark I want the waffles with the knob. The green light lets you know the waffle is ready but there’s no sound (I wish it would beep).It comes with a measuring cup, so make sure you use it to fill the batter if you don’t want any spillage. It feels a little wobbly when you lift up the handle to fill the batter but this is a minor issue, not much to worry about. It takes a little bit of counter space to store it, but at least it will look nice if you’re storing it on your countertop. I would definitely recommend this if you want perfect waffles.
