Heart Waffle Maker- Make 5 Mini Heart Shaped Waffles, Special Loved Ones Breakfast- Easy Clean Non-stick Baker, Electric Waffler Griddle Iron with Adjustable Temperature Control- Mother's Day Gift

Waffle iron works very well, even though it didn't seem to take a couple of sessions to break it in before it worked perfectly. After that it has worked perfectly, and we like the size and shape of the waffles too. The non stick surface seems to work perfectly, though we use butter rather than cooking oil spray to prep in order to get a browner and crisper waffle. The only quibble I have is that while there is a handle on the top part of the unit with which to pull up the waffle when it is ready, there is no corresponding handle on the bottom half. This means that if you have a slightly stubborn waffle, it is hard to open the the iron to get it out as there is nothing to grab onto on the bottom portion, and since the unit is hot, it can make it tough work to open the thing. Mind you, this only happens when we are making thinner, Swedish-style, waffles. . . and only on occassion. That said you might not encounter the problem.

Norwegian waffle maker is perfect.

Too practical to make some delicious pancakes

The CucinaPro waffle iron I received looks different than the one I ordered online. It has a different handle. This is my third 5-of-hearts waffle iron. I've been using the same recipe for Norwegian waffles for 30 years. I LOVED my first waffle iron from Vitantonio. The second one was from Chef's Choice. I bought this CucinaPro as a gift for my daughter. This CucinaPro cooks a thicker waffle than my prior irons, so it takes more batter, and the waffles don't turn out quite so thin and spongy as I would like. I had to turn up the heat to the highest level, and it still heated unevenly. I ended up needing to flip each waffle over in order to brown on both sides. The SOUND on the beeper is terrifyingly loud! My dog was shaking in fear each time the beeper sounded. All in all, the waffler does it's job, but takes more batter, more effort, and scares the dog!

Makes great Norwegian waffles!

The original CucinaPro waffle maker (with the handle) was built well and worked great. The heart shape was so cute and a nice change from the circle design. However, it died on me after 8 months of use. The company sent a replacement that was much lighter and felt cheaply made. They took away the beeping function (which was annoying when I first had it but I grew accustomed to it and actually came to count on the beeping). The old machine had the waffle at perfectly crispness for us at level 4 out of 6. The new one couldn’t cook the batter at the maximum setting: the batter was pale and raw. I had tried keeping the waffle in the machine 4 minutes pass the maximum “done” setting and while the waffle will look brown/done on the outside, the batter is not done inside and it was limp, not crispy. A complete disappointment even when the replacement was technically “free.” Not worth it for the money to have only lasted 8 months. I’ll stick with the Cuisinart waffle maker from now on.

Item arrived broke on the bottom

I love having a waffle maker again. These are a great solution for a family because they easily break into heart shaped segments. Perfect for sharing if a whole waffle is too much for your kids. The only thing is that it can be difficult to get the entire waffle out in one piece. It typically breaks into segments before you get it onto the plate. I also adore that there is barely any cleaning required! I have never had to scrub this, just a gentle and quick wipe down.

Excelente,,no necesita antiaderente.

説明書が英語でわからないけど、レシピはなんとなく単語を読んで作りました。よくできました。ホットケーキだけではなく余ったご飯や食パンもはさんで焼きます。便利です。あまり厚いものは使えないので、ご飯を乗せるとせんべいになります、食パンせんべい。また別の楽しみ方してます。焦げ付きもなく最高です。

There have been several reviews which gave a low rating to this product. Some complained about the apparent loose hinges with the upper griddle plate. That is intentional since waffles expand and need some place to go, otherwise they'd squeeze out along the edge and burn. BTW there is no audible beep on this product; just let the green "ON" indicator cycle once or twice and the plates are up to temperature. There is a thermostat that regulates the temperature (I found that setting the dial in the 2:00 position worked right for me). I've tried several recipes and found some good and some bad but none took longer than 3 minutes to come out evenly done. I bought this item based on my experience with the Cucina krumkake product and I haven't been disappointed with either one.

Terrible waffle iron. Doesn't get hot enough to get a crispy surface, leaving the waffles soggy. DO NOT BUY.

It works well! Very cute
