My household LOVES this Multi-plate mini waffle & pancake maker so much! It is so easy to use, I have let my 6 & 10 year old help me make pancakes! They get so excited to help. This little, but mighty hot plate heats up nice and evenly making the perfect waffle/pancake. Even better,  clean up is a breeze. All you have to do is pop out the plates and wipe everything down. I give this little contraption a 10 and I can not wait to see what concoction we come up with next to try in it.
