Cooks Professional Belgian Waffle Maker 920W | Powerful Electric Rotary Luxury Waffle Machine with Non-Stick Cooking Plates, Locking Mechanism, Folding Handle & Drip Tray | Easy Clean | Red

Excellent Waffle Iron. I bought this after a recent trip the US when I was enjoying waffles for breakfast and wanted to try them at home. I liked the look of this waffle iron and like the fact you can turn it on it's side and fold the handle for storage. The iron takes about 2 minutes to heat up and with a quick brush of oil you're ready to go. I also purchased some Belgian Waffle mix on amazon that took a few minutes to mix together and then poured the batter into the iron - cooked for 2-3 minutes on one side and then flipped to the other side for a further 2-3 minutes before lifting the handle to see a perfectly cooked waffle! It was non-stick so lifted easily out just using a butter knife and it was very easy to clean. Even if you accidentally add too much batter and it over flows there's a drip tray underneath and with a quick wipe once the iron has cooled down it's cleaned and ready to go again.I went for the red colour as I think it looks quite retro and looks nice on the kitchen worktop. Kids are loving weekend breakfast treats now. So quick and easy to use. Very happy and would certainly recommend!!

Bought this for my daughter who has coeliacs disease and poor girl can't buy a glutenfree waffle when out at cafes etc. This comes with recipe book Inc so a great start when I discovered it had gluten free recipe inside too.We just added a drop of vanilla to recipe but you can add anything you like really. The waffles were quick and simple to make, machine cleans easily and end product was amazing! We used Doves Farm self raising flour but then I use this for all my gluten free bakes. Wonderful fluffy waffles that are crisp on the outside too x

We've had this waffle maker for a few weeks now, and so far we love it. The recipes that come with it are pretty good. We've tried the basic recipe, buttermilk waffles and chocolate chip waffles. The chocolate chip recipe is our favourite so far. The recipe uses beaten egg whites, so the waffles are light and fluffy. The only issue with the recipes is that none of them indicate how many waffles they will make! We found that the basic recipe makes 4, the buttermilk and chocolate chip waffle recipes make 5-6. It's also a bit of a guess how much mixture to use per waffle - if you use too much it leaks out.The waffle maker itself is easy to use. It only takes around 3 minutes to cook a waffle, and it's ready to make another straight away. We haven't had to spray oil on it, the waffles have come out easily so far. It can be a bit of a faff to clean though if the mix gets in any of the cracks or screw indents.

I. Love. It.I takes a minute or two to cook gorgeous, crispy waffles. I did a lot of research before buying a waffle maker, as I specifically wanted one that made deep waffles (I wasn't too concerned about round or square). This one certainly fits the bill, with the waffles around 1" deep, evenly crispy, with deep waffles to soak up butter and syrup - my maple syrup bill has gone through the roof!The recipe makes about 5 waffles, so I make a 1-egg batch (half the recipe) and that lasts me for breakfasts over the weekend. I do reduce the amount of baking powder to around half that of the recipe - trust me on this. I've experimented a little with the flavourings, so sometimes add cinnamon to the batter, and occasionally replace some of the flour with 50g fine cornmeal. I haven't done savoury waffles, and have no interest in doing so.The main bit also rotates, so takes up a lot less space in the cupboard than I'd anticipated - really happy about that!I also took it to my family Christmas, and made a monster batch of batter. It is so quick that I was able to churn out waffles for everyone (five adults and two children), so there was no long wait and everyone had breakfast together - I was really happy with this, as I thought it would be a lot more waiting around to produce enough for everyone.There is no timer - you need to use judgement on when the waffles are ready. When I put the batter in, the green 'ready' light goes off. Generally, when it comes back on again, and has finished producing the majority of steam, then it is ready.Don't overfill - the waffles grow into monsters! Not too much of a hassle if that does happen, as it is easy to clean the outside (but wait until it is cool - don't try and wipe off wet batter!).Just wanted to write an update 5 years after buying this. STILL GOING STRONG!

After weeks of dithering I finally bought this waffle maker, I was helped enormously by Amazon customers who had already purchased this item, they answered my question which helped me make my decision, so thank you to all of you who answered , and more importantly they were spot on with their advice . This waffle maker is just great small enough to leave on the work top the handle folds, and really its no bigger than a two slice toaster. I made my own batter from a recipe off Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yN2z5X43mjk which worked perfectly for us as there are only two of us , this mixture makes three waffles but could easily be doubled for a larger family, it was simplicity it'self I left the waffles to cook for 3.50 minutes and they were perfect, crispy on the outside , fluffy on the inside and a lovely even golden colour. I am so glad I took the plunge and bought it, it doesen't seem flimsy to me as other reviewers have commented. The item comes with a recipe leaflet but didn't fancy their recipe which called for 2.50 tablespoons of baking powder, so I turned to Youtube and Joy of Baking she has great recipes, but there a literally hundreds of recipes for waffles on there, some using baking powder some using yeast which I have yet to try.Although a self confessed gadget freak I can't reccommend this this product highly enough, it's great when a new gadget works and this one certaily does.
