BLACK+DECKER WM505 WMB505 Belgian Waffle Maker, Stainless Steel, Silver

I was a little hesitant at first since you can't remove plates for washing, but decided to give it a try. My grandson kept asking for a waffle maker and decided to go with a simple one since I've never used one before. I must say pancake batter does go along way with a waffle maker. I love it, he loves it. When I make my batter (put of box nothing fancy) I do add a little vanilla for extra flavor. I also add a teeny spray of spam at the center to both sides of waffle maker, not necessary, but I do. I've never had a spill over since I start at the center and gradually spread carefully. I always time it to exactly 3minutes because that's what it says. I've had perfect waffles everytime. I do add some confection sugar and maple syrup and all comes out perfect and super tasty. Next time I'll maybe cut a few blueberries in the batter. I know this is only a beginners waffle maker, but if you're careful you can do allot with it. As far as cleaning it, the waffle comes up in one piece, no batter left behind of course unless you add too much and it spills over, but that's never happened to me. So afterwards I wipe the plates with a napkin and warm water and that's it. I love it.

Work great so far waffle taste delicious love what it do I added cooking spray before using as instructed and didn’t burned very happy with the unit

Coming from a fancy waffle maker, I can tell you I like this waffle maker. It makes good waffles, they come right out and don't stick. It isn't fancy, has no beeps that tell you when it's ready for the batter, or when the waffle is ready, but its a good, inexpensive, no frills waffle maker that does what it's supposed to ...which is make waffles! It does have a light that tells you when it's hot enough though.the directions were slightly confusing in terms of what the green light means. I would think that it means the waffle maker is ready for batter...But it actually means it's heating up. When the green light goes OFF, it's ready for batter. Im probably the ONLY one confused by this.

When a waffle is finally done, it takes about ten minutes per waffle, the center seems well-cooked but the edges seem under cooked. It took about 30 minutes to cook waffles for two people. Three cycles of the "ready" light, the light goes out when the waffles are expected to be done, are needed to get fully cooked waffles. The 650 watt heating element is just not up to the job. I'll return it and order another model which is more likely to cook faster and more evenly.

Makes good waffles but limited in size and gets clogged easily.

I hate this Waffle maker, the non stick coating is useless, all waffles get stuck in all groves and squares. Its messy and the cleaning process is a hassle. Its frustrating and I can't say a single good thing about this "Waffle maker". A total waste!

I didn’t expect much from this product since I’ve never had a waffle iron before. I always had this misconception that only the ones that you close and flip over are the ones that work. But this is just as good. Easy to store, does not take up a lot of room. Waffles came out nice & fluffy! The only thing is that there’s not really any button that tells you when they are ready. The light that the iron has is more for letting you know when it’s hot enough to start putting the batter in. You just have to keep an eye on them. 10/10 great buy.

I like this Waffle Maker. Does what it's supposed to. I didn't need anything really expensive for my household of 4 and a guest. Waffles didn't stick or burn or anything. I'd probably give this a 4.5 if I could and make the half star difference because the handle can collect some condensation from the steam. If the handle were open like a U vs solid, the steam would pass through it vs collect under it. Anyway, the Seller delivered on time and in great condition. I would absolutely buy again and recommend.
