I used this to make some waffles for breakfast over the weekend. I used some box pancake mixed and followed the directions it made 4 waffles. The waffles are good size and the drip pan in under it is great although I never had any over flow. The size of the waffle make itself is good more compact than others. The handle is a little harder to turn than some I’ve used but it was designed different so no biggie. The only drawback to this waffle maker is even on the highest setting it doesn’t seem to brown them enough. The waffle would come apart when removing them. This is easily solved by leaving them in after light states it’s ready but be cautious to keep an eye on them as to not burn them. Overall I’m happy with the waffle maker and wouldn’t mind to get another one should the need arise.
