I bought this about two years ago & it works great still! I don't have to use grease if I don't want to because nothing sticks to it. I use a lot of the recipes that came with it & have used others that I've found. I can always count on good fresh Waffles that I can make soft or crispier because you can adjust the beat. If I ever have to buy another waffle maker it will definitely be another Oster! I came back to this site to look for another recipe & saw a false comment so wanted to make sure people knew the truth about this product!
