 Decent little waffle maker Apr 10, 2008
By sec682
Unlike the previous reviewer, I don't really have a problem cleaning this - you really just need to wipe it down with a wet cloth. I happened to get this at Target for $8, so considering the price I paid, I don't really have anything bad to say about it. My only warning is that if you are cooking for more than 1-2 people, you'll probably want to get a model that makes more than 2 waffles at a time. Also, even though this is nonstick, I know people sometimes still grease things like this - DON'T unless your aim is for soft waffles. I find you get crispier waffles if you don't grease/spray it and they don't stick (though they are a tiny bit harder to get out, but just pull a bit with a fork and it's no problem). Overall, while this certainly isn't top of the line, it suits my needs just fine. Also, I only use this once every few months so I don't know how well it would hold up to daily/weekly use.

 The best waffle iron ever! Dec 15, 2009
By N. B. Elks
My Toastmaster Waffle Baker is the best thing ever for making perfect waffles. By the time I'm through mixing my batter, it's already heated up and ready to go. It's very easy to clean and the slim design is perfect for storing right on my countertop. When it's standing up, it's so cute that it almost looks like a purse. We just love it... did I mention it makes delicious waffles too? My daughter liked ours so much that she wanted one for Christmas. Highly recommended and what a great price for this wonderful little appliance.
 Chinese made garbage May 04, 2012
By Aron Fox
There is nothing good about this so-called Belgian waffle maker. The cooking plates are very shallow, unlike an actual Belgian waffle maker. So, of course when cooked the batter expanded and bubbled out onto the counter and into places with wires where cleaning is impossible. And the batter sticks to the cooking plates. There is no way to pull the waffle off without tearing them apart, even after I sprayed oil on the cooking surfaces. And it has no temperature controls. And it has no off/on switch.
I had a waffle maker from the 1970's that worked for 30 years till it quit. There is no reason why Toastmaster can't make them like that nowadays. Knowing how cheaply made Toastmaster products are, they fully expect me to re-purchase within one year. My advice is for us to inquire as to the country of origin before purchasing. If it is Chinese made, you know what to expect. And, it is Chinese made, over 7000 miles of pollution get spewed into the atmosphere just to bring it to your home. And, purchasing Chinese made products supports exploitation of labor, so famous in China.

I just threw it in the garbage. Jan 18, 2012
By A.B.
"ramen aficionado"
I'm not kidding. I'm standing here trying to make waffles. I plug in it, spray it with cooking spray. Let it sit for 3 minutes. It burns the cooking spray.
Well, that's not such a big deal. I try making waffles with it anyway. I carefully measure 1/2 cup batter and carefully plop it into the shallow tray. I do this carefully because the last time I didn't, batter overflowed absolutely everywhere. There is no overflow catch thing to speak of with this thing. In fact it's near impossible to clean too. It all just goops all over the counter and into parts of the iron that were never meant to be touched. Even with my precision, it overflowed somewhat.
Then I waited about 10 minutes. The red light came on several times, but still soggy. Ok, I had 7 more waffles to make. I couldn't be standing here all day. I finally yanked the waffle out of the iron and plopped it in the toaster over. It was done in 2 minutes.
I threw the waffle maker in the trash can outside and made pancakes with the rest of the batter. Never. Again.
In short, this thing will make you HATE waffles.

Impossible to Clean Dec 25, 2009
By J. S. Byington
This waffle iron is flippin impossible to clean. No overflow area around the outside means that it literally spills all over the outside of the machine (including the power cord) when using. For a good guide to buying a decent waffle iron, check out Alton Brown's Good Eats episode titled "the Waffle Truth".
