I love the unique vertical design of the Ninja Never Stick Belgian Waffle Maker PRO; it’s compact and takes up very little counter space, a must in our compact kitchen. I used pancake mix when using this waffle maker. The Ninja Never Stick Belgian Waffle Maker PRO is genuinely non-stick and is easy to clean. We use an old family sourdough waffle recipe, and they turn out crispy on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside.
