When I first got the Belgian waffle maker, base on the picture it seem like a smaller size, when I open it up it look small, when I fist did the first waffle I was surprise on how big they turn out to be. This waffle maker is perfect in size and fits perfectly away. Waffles don't stick and they come out big, fluffy and soft, since I don't have too much time with the waffle maker I still can't get my waffles to come out crispy on the outside and equally brown on both sides. Other that that I am happy with the waffle maker and my family loves them! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
