The pizzelles  come out nicely and easy to use. It is lightweight unlike my old one that is heavier and stronger lasting. 
 I’m used to my old one I’ve had for 46 yrs.so the workmanship is so much better. I found this to be easier for my husband snd grandsons to use as I use mine old one. The pizzelles do bake faster. 
 I do recommend it especially for ease and durability. 
 recommend it .
