BEST WAFFLE MAKER EVER! Calphalon

Don'T you don't have to do any guesswork, there's no like red light or green light. Like traditional waffle makers, so right here on the front, you ju...

I was very excited to received this BF deal. As soon as I opened it I wiped it with a sponge and dried it with a paper towel. Next I made a small batch of pancake batter to test the heating elements. The batter spread nicely and I drizzled some turbinado sugar on top to test the non-stick ceramic co...

Before ordering this waffle maker, I was excited to have found one that was ceramic non-stick coated. So after shopping around, I found that Kohl’s offered the best price and ordered it.

Upon opening the box, the product looked a bit flimsy and of poor quality. It also had a strong chemical odor....

UPDATE: Having trouble with it turning on.

UPDATE: We've had this maker for about a year and now it works in fits and starts. We are having trouble with it turning on. The light up screen doesn't always turn on when you turn the knob so it doesn't heat.. We love the way it cooks when it works and that it's ceramic, but our last waffle maker ...

Update 1/27/22: nonstick coating is chipping away after about 4-5 uses. Had to return it. So I bought this twice. The first waffle maker had the same issues that many other reviewers have noted: the timer and cooking sensor are not always working or in sync. At times the waffle maker didn’t realize ...

Great waffles,electronics useless

Wonderful crisp waffles. Followed instructions. 1st set of waffles all the electronic prompts worked perfectly ( buzzer way too loud ) made 6 more sets of waffles. No timer countdown, the machine had no clue I had opened it and was making more waffles. So I judged if they were ready by steam and sme...

I love the simplicity and ease of this waffle maker. What's more is the count down to when the waffles are ready. What I don't love is that even the lowest setting gives you really dark waffles! I hate to think what putting it on a high setting would do. Make waffles today for the 4th time using thi...

Makes perfect waffles, but...

I bought this recently and it makes perfect waffles except that the cooking timer quit working before I had all the waffles made - first time to use. The non-stick surface worked as it should and no cooking spray needed. The directions said add 1/2 cup batter to each plate but this was too much and ...

Non-stick coating flakes off

I love this waffle iron and it was as described in ALMOST every way. The waffles were perfect when the timer went off, it was fairly easy to clean because of the non stick coating. All was well UNTIL, after only a few weeks of using it ( (once a week on Thursdays), the non stick coating started flak...

This waffle maker was top-rated by Consumer Reports, and I would agree if not for a flaw in its operation. When batter is added, its window switches from "READY TO COOK" to "COOKING", counts down until done. However, my unit sometimes fails to indicate COOKING and leaves me to guess when its done. T...
