Use the front tab to open and remove the waffle. The tab locks in place for storing. I've used a number of different waffles mixes including whole grain and multigrain waffle mix from Arrowhead Mills and the Carbon's Golden Malted waffle mix. Use a little less mix and let the lid spread it for each waffle and it shouldn't run over. Easily stores standing up in the cupboard. If it does, it isn't that hard to clean up but if it runs down the back of the iron that is a little more tedious to clean up. I know they will make delicious waffles.Pro: Good price.
Dependable. Because the iron is hinged it allows the waffle to rise as it bakes. Handles get hot, use the locking tab to open. Makes 4 quarters at a time. I use a slight amount of spray oil from time to time but it really doesn't need much. It is reliable, I can set my kitchen timer for 4 minutes and my waffles will be done. I don't advise using the handles they get hot.
I use slightly under 1/2 a cup of mix for each of the 4 waffles. I never have to change a setting, they always bake perfectly. Con: Can run over if over filled. I've owned this waffle iron for several years and use it weekly, it has had a lot of use over that time period. (It seems intuitive to me to use the tab but I have seen criticism concerning the handles). I like this waffle iron so much I am debating getting several more for Christmas gifts.
The first lasted almost three years the second one about a year. If you over add the recipe, it will make a mess.
I never immersed them just wiped them down. The first just died, no lights nothing.
The biggest issue is reliability. I believe it has a faulty safety.
This is the second one I've owned. They make fine waffles, however there is no timer or browning settings.
This one the lights come on but it no longer heats.
