I got this machine for my sister in law who had been saying she wanted to buy a pizzelle machine for the longest time. She did not expect it and she loves it. As soon as she got it she went to her cupboard got the ingredients and began making pizzelle.This baby lived up to its name. With its non stick plats it is easy to clean and looks beautiful on the counter. Electricity wise it consumes  750 watts. BUT most of all makes the BEST pizzelle. Will review again later on to update on how it is doing. Right now it deserves a 5 star all the way. Very happy with the purchase and most of all very happy that as a gift it turned out great.
