VonShef Round Waffle Maker – Large 2 Slice Stainless Steel Waffle Iron

I love waffles. My wife is the true genius in the kitchen when it comes to her delicious pancakes and other tasty treats. I've been wanting waffles for breakfast for a long time and so my wife eventually suggested that I get a waffle maker and she would put her talents to good use by mixing us up some batter. I decided on this particular make and model of the VonShef after reading copious reviews. It arrived quickly. The very next day, in fact, thanks to Amazon Prime. But we waited for the weekend to use it for the first time. As it turns out, it was the May Bank Holiday Friday, coinciding with VE Day. My wife mixed up a batch of batter from a recipe for waffles on the BBC GoodFood website and we had delicious golden waffles in about half an hour. They were scrumptious! The waffle maker is good value for the money. It is easy to use. It is also easy to clean, as long as you avoid any over-spill, which is more difficult to get out of the crevices. Just be careful not to overfill the plates with the batter. A little goes a long way. My wife did say that the plates could have been slightly deeper to stop any leakage, but she is still very happy with the performance of the waffle maker.

We got this at Christmas and still use it every weekend. Great waffle maker, sturdy and generous size waffles. The plates are not removable but because they are non stick, a go with the sponge and a bit of kitchen cleaner does the job.

We've had this for two years now. It is easy to use and it cooks fluffy brown waffles how we like them. The only downside to this is cleaning it after use. I started off using ear buds to help get the black gunk from the spray oil. But after a few times of cleaning it that way, I just simply use a dish brush I bought from Tesco. I get the brush wet and then squirt some dish soap on it, then clean the waffle maker that way. You shouldn't run it under water, but to rinse, I keep the water on a very low trickle to rinse the soap off as I try hard not to get water anywhere but on the part that cooks the waffles. It is the easiest clean up method I've tried and it's still working. You do have to use spray oil or waffles stick but with a good recipe that calls for vegetable oil instead of butter, I find works better and waffles are less likely to stick. For the price, it does what it should and it's reliably produced light brown fluffy waffles. The cooking time can fluctuate after you do the first batch, which can take 2 or 3 minutes, the next batch might take longer, it's not consistent and you have to gauge how much batter to put it each side. It's just something you will figure out thru trial and error. Too much and it will spill outside the edges and too little, then they look like the German waffles with the thin edges. That's it, that's this waffle maker in a nutshell. We are happy with it.

Super waffle maker. Used it a few times, the waffles always turn out well.

Quick to heat and easy to clean. Waffles cooked evenly and light indicator really helped to notify when ready without opening and closing hundred times.

Brilliant! Waffle machine for 3-4 waffle price. It already paid itself.

I wish i could have given this product negative Star, as its just stoped working after we used it just for a month (3times used) And now seller is not responding and amazon is not great either, there is no way we could ask Amazon to get involve unlike Ebay as you can call thrm directly and they are great in solving this kind of issues, if i would have nought from Argoes or Currys they would have replaced it straightaway (past experience) Do not buy this product

This works nicely, gets hot quickly, and does the job nicely, it doesn't flip so you do tend to get one side that looks like the top with the defined ridges and one side that's more flat if that makes sense. I found it works best with buttermilk instead of milk, and whipping your egg whites separately! Also if you like your waffles crispy but don't want them burnt, you can transfer them straight to a preheated oven rack for 3-5 minutes to crisp up the edges without them burning in the machine. Cleaning was a pain because of its shape and the grids not being removable but I can't imagine a waffle maker exists that is easy to clean so that's not a mark against this specific model and is the price you pay for waffles!
