I love this waffle maker! Is the best by far. The well around the outside makes for an easy clean up. I’m the waffles cooked to my liking and coloring!

I have used this quite a few times. It's the perfect size for waffles. Simple and easy to use. Cooks them beautifully and of course they're delicious.

Worked flawlessly with the first batch after carefully wiping it down with a clean damp sponge. Absolutely nothing seems to stick to the coating there using on this. From the first waffle to the last, each lifted easily out by hand onto the cooling rack. Granted my scratch batter recipe has a generous 1/3 cup of melted ghee so, yeah.One thing I learned after the first waffle or two, if you put a slight amount of down pressure on the lid after closing on the raw batter, you'll get a nice even waffle using the suggested 1/2 cup of batter. Though I did a heaping 1/2 cup with mine as I love the krispies you get around the edge with the spill over. :p Yes, that spill over moat does in fact get very hot, and will brown any batter that gets in there.The build quality is like a restaurant/commercial grade, and it has good weight to it. I can see myself getting many years of use out of this unit, and continue to support my waffle addiction. One of the best small appliance purchase I've made in some time. Highly recommended!

Ideal for two! The waffle iron is nice and hot by the time we have finished our first waffle, and cooks quickly. The sides stay cooler, reducing burns, and the drip tray works great. It makes well browned nice round traditional waffles. There is a latch in the front that secures the iron closed for storage. This is a well thought out iron, quite nice.

The quality is superb except for one tiny component that holds the waffle maker closed. It broke after a waffle was expanding in the maker. The waffle maker is straight to the point and I like that. Anyone should find it easy to use. The digital beep is pretty on point for when the waffle has browned. The value for the cost is not bad. It’s an expensive maker but it seems durable and high quality. The weight is as expected, a little heavy but that’s because it’s hefty/durable. The nonstick coating works great. It cooks fairly quickly as well.Update 11 April 2024: Upon reviewing the instruction booklet, I realized the little piece that broke was only for storage and not for cooking.

We experimented with the browning levels and found our favourite, and this waffle iron is the best we’ve ever used by a mile. Heats up and cooks quickly and evenly, and the spill over rim is really useful. Have had no issues with sticking, and though the plates are not removable, it is easy to clean. It’s a bit pricey, but if you’re into waffles, it’s worth it.

This is a very nice waffle maker, but this is only based on short term usage (Used it four times so maybe 20 full size waffles)Makes a good evenly browned waffle - crispness on the outside (depending on the setting) and soft on the inside. The moat is a useful feature; however, you should still aim for minimizing overflow. Once you use it, this will be easy to estimate. If it significantly overflows into the moat, it will not make a mess, but you will notice that the top will brown more.The waffles detach easily - there is a lot of surface contact so don't expect to just rip them off, they will likely tear. Just pry gently with a suitable tool, and you will not have any issues.The initial odor from the non-stick surface seems less than with others I have tried, though it is still there.I have found I use the maximum browning setting, but I am also using a gluten free mix. Not sure if the gf makes a difference; may just be that I prefer a crispier waffle.Breville is kind of like the Ferrari of kitchen appliances; they are stylish and perform well.The styling is a bit different. At first it looks a bit unbalanced because of the large moat, but this is such a nice feature and the appearance grows on you after a short while. The stainless steel is noticeably heavier than other brands. The handle is sturdy, the sides are plastic, but the part you touch is stainless steel. It feels heavy which is a good thing. The underside has a cut out for making the cord shorter or for storing the cord when not in use. It is odd to see a kitchen appliance like this with a grounded plug (3 wire) - maybe this is a European requirement? The plug is also very different in appearance as it is shaped with a pull to make removal safer.It's a bit pricey, but I believe you are paying for quality. It has gone up in price from when I bought it. At $149 it is $20 more than I paid

Love my new Waffle maker. Super easy to use and mess free! Light fluffy waffles every time. I recommend setting 6 which is perfect for me.

So far, I am really happy with this waffle maker. We replaced an old rectangle type waffle maker that had no custom settings, no audible alarm, and was being held together by tape. This one is a huge step up from that. I chose the Breville because I have used their products before and have been happy with the quality of them, I wanted a round non-Belgian style waffle maker that allowed me to fine tune the darkness of the waffle, and I wanted something that had an audible alert.Waffles cook evenly, which is very important. Cleanup is a breeze too, which is also very important since this isn't something you can just wash in a sink or dishwasher. The little moat around the edge works exactly as advertised, catching any overflow and cooking it to make for easy cleanup. The latch on the lid to lock it when storing is extremely helpful since you often have to grab it by the handle to get it in and out of the cabinet. The audible alert is easy to hear. When storing the waffle maker, the waffle maker has a place underneath to wrap the cord to keep it out of the way.The build quality of this waffle maker meets my expectations in every way except for one minor defect on our unit. On the rear outer side of the waffle maker, an area that is not used for cooking nor comes in contact with any food, I found a chip in the non-stick coating. It doesn't appear to be flaking, which could allow the exposure to become larger with time. Since it isn't in the cooking area and doesn't appear to be in a condition that could get worse, I decided to not exchange the unit yet and observe it during its warranty. If it wasn't for this minor flaw, I would be giving this review 5 stars.

We haven't owned a waffle maker before so did some research before buying... discovered that there is a difference between Belgian waffles and regular waffles . This machine does regular waffles which means no yeast and/or beating eggs to make puffy (Belgian) waffles. The regular waffles were just delicious.We LOVE the little drip tray (moat) that runs around the outside of the cook surface... no messy batter dribbling down the outside of the machine. Used the batter recipe in the owner's manual and it made 8 LARGE waffles... far more than 3 people could eat at one sitting. Will be cutting the recipe in half next time.Figure this will be a highlight of future breakfast/brunches when we invite the gang for a midday meal during the winter time instead of dinner.Wish we had bought one of these years ago... nice break from serving pancakes... and very easy to operate... a little bell tells you when the griddle is ready, and also tells you when the waffles are done..
