A rocker switch lets you choose between a faster baked waffle with a crisp exterior, moist interior, and heady aroma, or one cooked more slowly with a uniform texture throughout. The color control dial offers individual preference ranging from light golden brown to dark brown. Each 6-1/2-inch round waffle is quartered, allowing it to be divided easily between hungry kids or served as wedge-shape ‘cookies.’ The WafflePro also features nonstick plates and an overflow channel that wipe clean, a floating hinge to maintain even baking over varying thicknesses, and a beeper that sounds five times when cooking is done. Green and red baking lights make the whole procedure a snap. The cord wraps neatly underneath and the maker stands upright for compact storage. The waffle maker measures 8-1/2 by 9-1/2 by 3 inches and comes with a one-year warranty. --Ann Bieri

Content: If you truly like Belgian waffles, this isn't the waffle iron for you. It makes a good waffle and of the 3 Belgian waffle makers I've boughten this comes the closest, but is still way off the mark. I tried three different batters and none give you a crisp crusts that lasts more than a few seconds, then goes soft. They were good waffles though. There was another issue. when you first use the waffle maker it gives off a toxic odor as it burns off whatever they used in the manufacturing process. This is normal and was explained. Unfortunately it continues in subsequent use. My wife found it objectional enough that she wouldn't eat the waffles. I think it just comes down to the fact that as long as I cheap out and try to find a great Belgian waffle maker for less the a few 100 $$$, I'm going to be disappointed. Again, a good waffle maker yes, a good Belgian waffle maker NO !!

Content: We purchased this waffle maker after our 30 year plus waffel maker began to show it's wear. So far we are very happy with the unit. It makes great waffles, even with different recipes. There was no sticking - just followed the directions of using a spray for the first usage. We really like the alarm rather than having to watch continuously for a light. Also, the variable settings are useful - we like setting three for light, and tasty waffles. The waffles are evenly cooked on both sides. The storage in a vertical position helps with shelf space. We hope it will last as long as our old waffle maker.

Content: Chef's Choice 830B WafflePro Classic Belgian Waffle Maker I just rec'd this item for christmas and absolutely love it. My dogs loved it too...Yes, they got a bite..I used the waffle mixture instructions on the Aunt Jemima pancake mix. I have used other waffle makers (cheaper) and they just don't come close to this one. It took me using it one time to figure out the settings I need for what I like, and the second one was perfect. It is very quick ...heats up after each waffle quickly. Clean up is with a paper towel....I did use just a touch more than 1/2 half cup of mixture to make the "PERFECT" waffle.. I will probably be making waffles every weekend now that I have one that actually does what it claims..I would Recommend this highly to anyone who loves a great waffle... Sandy V.

Content: I selected this as a housewarming gift for a young couple. I am told they use it every weekend for the "best ever" waffles. They dress the waffles up with berries and whipped cream, syrup and butter, or just plain with confectioners' sugar. They particularly like the compact nature of the product as they have a tiny kitchen.
