I only had a Belgian waffle once before getting this waffle maker, now i will have them all the time! 
It heated up fast and cooked the waffles to a nice crispiness. I liked the different settings for color/crispiness since not everyone likes their waffles the same in my house. 
I tried different amounts of my favorite waffle mix until i found the perfect amount (2/3 cup). I read the instructions but didnt see any information about the amount of batter to add. 
Clean up was easy and the way it stands up for storage is a nice space saver.
