I received this product to test it out, at first I thought it looked kind of cheap because it felt sort of flimsy,but after using it I loved it, my waffles didn't stick to the grill like it did on others I had tried and instructions said waffles are done when it stops steaming and that was absolutely correct, steam stopped, I opened the maker and had a perfect delicious tasting waffle. Very is to clean, just wiped it off with a little soap and water. Nice size, easy to store.
