Brentwood Appliances TS-243 vs Breville Smart Waffle Maker

! Its a little heavy but its totally quality and i can easily manage it..and im not young lol

But then the non-stick coating began to come off. The person I gave it to is very careful and did not misuse it. It is just shoddy. Poor quality

It also has a countdown timer with digital display signals that will tell you when your waffle is done. This waffle maker is made with a brushed stain...

It's just enough to cook all the way through and keep the waffle from falling apart. If you like that light brown color and a crunchy outside and fluffy inside waffle, this is not the maker for you. What I end up doing is making the imprint of the waffle then throwing it in the toaster to get that nice crisp a waffle should have.

Breville wins that I own: Smart Waffle, Immersion blender, Smart Oven, Smart Oven Plus (except for the air fryer being less than optimal). These are all amazing.

This waffle iron was insanely expensive. Good thing I'm rich. I could have gotten a waffle iron for 30 bucks, and here I paid .

Too small for the price. Make sure you only put batter in the middle so it won't go over the sides. Not easy to clean if batter seeps out the back.

You can't really direct that batter, it escapes wherever it wants. Some products try and direct the batter into a bucket, which notoriously don't work...

Just the right size and it is very light unlike my older heavier waffle maker. It worked just as advertised and within minutes you can have waffles anytime. Use different recipes to test what works well, especially different waffle/pancake mixes. I blend in a banana, walnuts, and/or pecans for outstanding waffles, also fruit; however, don't overfill otherwise the excess runs out all over the sides of the appliance

If this is a problem for you then I would advise getting the 2 slice model because I would believe it opens to a lesser height. It is also heavy and has a substantial footprint. If you spend this much money on a waffle maker you might want to proudly display it out on your countertop, but because of the moat that catches the expanding waffle batter it makes it have a very large footprint making it hard to justify giving it so much real-estate for such a speciality appliance. If you do choose to move it back and forth from cabinet or pantry to countertop just realize it is not the lightest thing in the world

This waffle maker is nice looking and a very reasonable in price. My grandkids love chocolate chip waffles. Very easy to use.

With that said, it cooks a great waffle, easy to use, and relatively small footprint consider that it makes 4 waffles. We have limited storage space and we're considering the 2 waffle, but then realized this is not much larger, and at the time was actually cheaper than the 2 waffle unit.
