I really like the adjustable temperature control on this waffle maker so you are able to make them as light or as dark as you want to. Also It is easy to store as you can set it up on its end so it does not take a lot of room. The non stick is really good and makes clean up easy to do. I do not however know if I would call it a Belgian waffle maker it is not as deep as I would consider that to be . It is kind of in between the two types regular waffle maker and Belgian but the waffles are good. The only other thing I dislike is the amount of time it takes to cool down and how hot the outside gets so you would have to be careful around children. But all in all it is a good waffle maker it works as described . I did receive this free as a sample to test.
