Chefman Anti-Overflow Belgian Waffle Maker w/Shade Selector, Temperature Control, Mess Free Moat, Round Iron w/Nonstick Plates & Cool Touch Handle, Measuring Cup Included, Black

I didn’t know what to expect when I ordered this, but I am glad I did. The first waffle didn’t turn out very well as I overfilled it and didn’t know how long to cook it. The second one was perfect and the third one was even better. There is obviously a learning curve to figure out the correct amount of batter to pour into it. The waffle filled a good sized plate leaving room to add the meat of my choice. My one issue is that I kept forgetting to turn down the temperature control after heating it on high. One of the surprises was the warning “Do not use nonstick sprays”. I followed the directions to brush the plated with vegetable oil, specifically avocado oil. The pancakes released easily and did not leave a mess. The one flaw in the instructions is the failure to tell you how to know when cooking is complete. Cleaning, after it cooled down, was easy with a damp cloth. I recommend turning the handle to the closed position, clockwise, for storage. This will eliminate the possibility of it opening when moving it around by the handle.

The best waffle maker I ever had was made in Italy, maybe in the 80's-before Belgian waffles became so popular. These waffles were nice and thick, & cooked perfectly. I have spent a lot of money over time trying to another perfect waffle maker. Wow! The Chefman Anti-Overflow Belgian Waffle maker is a perfect replacement. The waffles are thick, but not Belgian waffle thick, cooked perfectly crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Use 1/2 for batter, or use the cup included then the overflow will contain the extra bit of waffle. I like the 7 heat settings, the sturdy build of the waffle maker, the working cord holder as well as the good size of the waffle. The way the waffle maker cooks seems just right, not too fast and not too hot. Also the top and the bottom of the waffles were cooked evenly, unlike many of the waffle makers I have tried.

Great alternative for other waffle makers for the prices. Switched from a cuisinart vertical waffle maker and this is a wonderful upgrade. The only issues after first using the product would be the confusing instructions. Ideally my previous waffle maker would beep when the cycle was beginning to end, this unit is a bit confusing. The start light just means that the pan is hot, when the light turns off then back on doesn’t mean the waffle is done, is just means it’s maintaining heat. Ideally you need to time how well cooked you like your waffle. Ideally this unit makes even waffles and comes with a catch tray if there is too much batter. Worth the price on sale but would change how the timing cycle works

I love this!!! I’ve own several waffle machine and this is by far the best! No spill, no need to use oil, doesn’t stick the waffle, has the green light to let u know its ready! Easy to clean, can stand to save space and has a place to roll the cord, heat pretty fast, lightweight, durable!

I ordered this waffle iron after trying another brand that I didn't like at all. I found this one to be very easy to use and the batter scoop is a nice addition. I started with a 1/2 cup of batter in the scoop, as the instructions recommended, and that seemed to work well. The anti-overflow moat seemed to work as intended. I only had a little overflow into the moat using a 1/2 cup of batter per waffle. Perhaps users who had a bad experience with overflow used more than a 1/2 cup of batter? Also, the nonstick plates functioned well and were easy to clean. I sprayed them with avocado oil spray on the first two waffles I made, but tried it without spraying them for a third waffle and had no issues with sticking. I used the "2" setting of doneness, which seemed to cook them nicely. I might experiment with other settings but 2 was suitable. I switched to this waffle iron after a disastrous experience with another brand (that is one of the top search results on Amazon), where the waffle stuck very badly, and it was a nightmare to clean after a significant amount of overflow. I like this iron much better and had a dramatically better experience using it than the first iron I bought. I recommend this one!

This is great, makes wonderful waffles and very easy to make

I have a Waring professional waffle maker that works EXACTLY like the ones in those hotels with self-serve breakfast. The thermostat broke and the part alone was going to be $35. So I bought this instead. So how does it work? Fine. Not great. Just fine. But for the price, it's okay and I'm giving it a solid 3 stars. Pros: Price point, ease of use, spill over plate that is easy to clean, non-stick when sprayed with a light coat of spray Cons: The ready light just tells you it has reached the heat setting. It does NOT tell you when the waffle is done. It takes 2-3 times as long to cook as my Waring waffle maker. You have to guess, and keep raising and lowering the lid. I'm not over-the-moon with this product. But I'm satisfied. So that's why I'm putting 3 starts.

Excellent waffle maker. Waffles crisped up very nicely when I found the right batter mixture. Recommended for waffle lovers!

Gostei muito

Excelente producto, al inicio me costó trabajo saber qué tan tostados quería que salieran, pero es fácil de utilizar, una maravilla

This waffle maker cooks waffles to perfection. And the waffles are so big. The anti-overflow works amazing. I don’t know what other people are talking about that said it didn’t. Maybe they have an older model. But mine works great. All it is, is an extended cooking surface so any batter that goes outside of the waffle grooves just gets cooked rather than making a mess. I liked it having a bit of an extra edge from the anti-overflow surface, it made it easier to get the waffle out. And if you’re worried about presentation you can easily cut or pull the edges off for a cleaner look. It’s fool proof. It tells you when to put the batter in and when the waffle is done. It has multiple level setting based on how browned you want your waffle. I cooked mine on level 3 (medium) for reference. It’s compact and light. It’s easy to clean, I just wiped it down with a cloth, nothing sticks to it. It was so easy to use my 5 year old was making waffles with my supervision.

Funciona genial, los wafles quedan impresionantes, lamentablemente al usarla el primer día, identificamos que suena algo por dentro, como una pieza suelta, alguien sabe como puedo tramitar la garantía????

Flawless waffles. Follow any recipe and this thing will make them perfect every time. I make normal waffles and sometimes add some blueberries so not much cleanup needed. Gets nice and hot for extra crispy with the right recipe :) I would buy another one and recommend absolutely to my family and friends. Thank you chef man and Amazon!!
