Easy operation compact design

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids love Belgian waffles so they were very excited when this arrived. It is easy to use. The style is nice, I like the size of it and love how it’s so compact. My only complaint is that i wish it was easier to clean. It would be nice if you can just take the plates off to wash them. Would recommend to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was the perfect waffle maker! The first thing I loved is how compact it is. It's not clunky and I really love that. It has the heat adjustment so if I want slightly browner waffles I can get exactly how I like it. One thing annoying thing with waffle irons can be the clean up. You get caked on waffle and it's just messy. This was not my experience. It's non stick surface meant an easy clean up and storage. Great product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great little waffle maker. It made crispy waffles that tasted great with just the basic pancake waffle/mix. I do wish the plates could come off so it was easier to clean because that is kind of pain. This also does not have a timer so you have to be careful and keep an eye on it so they don’t burn. Overall a good unit though and does the job well!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Hamilton Beach Belgian Style Waffle Maker is a great product. It is very simple to use. The power and preheat light indicate when the waffle maker is ready for the batter. It heats up quickly. My family says the waffles come out delicious. There is a waffle shade slider to adjust to your liking. The waffles are crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. You can make 2 thick waffles at a time. In addition, the waffle maker is compact as the 2 compartments lock together and it can be stored vertically in my cupboard. Highly recommended in my household.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this Hamilton Beach Belgian Style waffle Baker. It makes great tasting waffles quickly and it's compact in size so it doesn't take up too much room on the kitchen counter. Don't let the small size fool you. This waffler baker makes 2 normal size waffles that come out crispy on the outside, yet soft and fluffy inside. The nonstick interior heats up quickly. Simply plug in and within a few minutes the green light comes on indicating it's time to add your favorite waffle batter. The shade selector on the front makes it easy to customize how light or dark your waffles are. You may have to experiment a few times adding the battery to get it just right. Too much batter will result in the batter leaking out of the machine, and not enough batter will result in the waffles on coming out completely full size. Easy to clean and easy to store. Perfect for kitchens with limited counter space. Great for dorm rooms or even the work breakroom.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This waffle maker is the best! My husband and I love waffles and we’ve always wanted to make them at home but just never did. This maker is amazing quality and so easy to use. We used it the other night to have a family waffle dinner and everyone loved them! It made them very fast and perfect quality and we would definitely recommend this maker!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] . My husband complains if his waffles aren’t crispy. Our regular waffle maker never makes crispy waffles. I love ordering Belgium Waffles at a restaurant. With this Belgium waffle maker we get crispy waffles. I use the Belgium Waffle recipe with yeast from the Better Homes and Gardens New Baking Book. Real Belgium waffles are made with yeast. It makes a lot of batter that keeps well in the fridge. This recipe takes a little longer to bake than if you just use a regular waffle recipe, but very worth the effort. I use an old pastry brush swished in Crisco to grease the waffle iron plates and only for the first batch. Make sure to wait until you don’t see any more steam before opening the iron. Top of the waffle never browns as much as the bottom part. When I plate them I turn them so that the nice brown side is up. I’ve had to cook hubby waffles every day since we got the iron! It stores so easily if you put it on end. I use my fork to gently lift the latch and upper part of the iron. I let the lid drop once and the batter slopped out; I just used my kitchen sponge to wipe it off the iron while it was cooking and it came off very easily. There are so many toppings for Belgium Waffles and not just for breakfast. They are great as a base for Ice Cream or fruit desserts also. I think I'll try making Eggs Benedict using the waffle instead of an English muffin. My iron is the steel and chrome one. The length of the cord is just right for my counter top space. I like that this size is great for taking along in our RV when we travel or go camping.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the stand up storage feature. It has adjustable heat so I can dial it in to my liking. The finish is stainless and blacks plastic which fits in with my refrigerator and my stove. I would reccommend starting at half power to get used to the heat settings. Overall it's a great Belgian Waffle maker. I like it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This heats up very fast but even on low it burns the waffles. Ive tried it 3 times and got the same results. Maybe there is a problem with this one product I received. Its very nice and stylish. I just wished it would have worked properly. I love all of my other Hamilton Beach precious so I just think this was a one time thing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Hamilton Beach Belgian style waffle maker is compact and easy to use. It makes some pretty decent waffles too! The only problem I have is when trying to open it, I wish it had a larger handle. I tend to spill some of the mix with how small this one is. Otherwise, the waffles come out great and fluffy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoyed using this complimentary Hamilton Beach Waffle Baker in making Belgian waffles for breakfast. The preheat and power lights were helpful in determining when the grids were hot enough and ready to use. There was a shade selector so waffles could be cooked lightly colored or dark and crispy. I also liked the non-stick grids which made it effortless to remove the cooked waffles as well as easy cleaning. The Waffle Maker was compact for storage. This product was very user friendly and making waffles was a breeze.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the waffle maker and since it is a Belgian waffle maker, I decided to add blueberries to the mixture. While it doesn't look that great, it did the job and tasted very good. This a smaller waffle maker and doesn't take up that much room on my counter. It also stands sideways if you prefer to put it I a cabinet. Overall, I recommend this waffle maker.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a neat little waffle maker! The unit is compact, yet it makes two roughly 4x5 inch belgian style waffles. The cooking grids have a durable nonstick coating that you oil initially before preheating to coat them well. The unit heats up quickly, and has a green status light that illuminates when it is ready. The slide lever let's you choose the heat level that determines the doneness of the waffles. I used a basic box mix and my waffles took just about 3 minutes to cook. The nonstick surface worked great and the waffles released perfectly. They were excellent! Cleanup was easy using a wet cloth to wipe the grids and wiping dry. The cord wraps around the base a bit and stands up for storage. It is very compact for storage. I really like this waffle maker!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This waffle maker will look great in any kitchen. Sleek and efficient. Cooked waffles really fast and to your desired crispiness as per the lever you choose when you start. Took just minutes. My only negative is that plates are not removeable to wash which would make it perfect. Clean up was not bad, just felt it could be cleaner than I could get it.

Have other Hamilton beach products and have been satisfied with performance, durability and quality. Just started using this item and have not had any problems.
