I love this waffle maker! I’ve wanted a waffle maker like this for a long time and it works like a charm. It cooks the waffles perfectly without a huge cleanup effort required. It has a light that turns on to indicate when the waffle is done cooking. It doesn’t beep, so you will want to stay close to it while it is cooking, but as long as you pay attention, the waffles come out perfect. I can confirm that it works Just as good on gluten free waffle batter. I love it!
