Brunch waffles without the hotel room...,

I had been using a Vitantonio Belgian waffle maker for about 20 years (originally for about 100 bucks). It was a great waffle iron. Then it stopped working -- none to be had of its quality anywhere (V. is no longer in business, and even the successor line didn't have one of this quality).
The Kitchenaid Waffle Baker seemed a dream come true. Unfortunately, the going price of $300 seemed pretty pricey. No better deals anywhere. Did some investigation -- took a few months to convince my spouse, and I got a birthday present.
Now to the substance: It's awesome. Well made. Constant temperature waffler with an accurate timing system. The waffles came out perfetcly the first time. I used to need Pam to be sure I could get a waffle out -- not so here. A little nudge, and they come out without sticking, splitting, or tearing. The system retains your timing information so once you converge on the proper time, you're set. Waffles were uniformly cooked across and through...Read more

I'm impressed (and relieved I didn't waste my money!),

I've had my eye on this machine for about 2 years (whenever it came out) and never felt I could justify spending SO much for a "uni-tasker", but with the sale price I thought I'd try it. My only other waffle iron was the Disney winnie the Pooh one, which didn't end up getting used much- the waffles just weren't that great. I just opened this one, tried it, and it made PERFECT waffles just like at restraunts/hotels- it blows my other maker out of the water. And it is attractive enough to leave out on the counter, which means I think I'll use it more b/c it is in eyesight. Can't speak for durability, but it is hefty and feels like it will outlast me. I'm glad I tried this and my kids are thrilled to have something other than Eggo waffles. I would buy it again. Highly recommended.

Spending $300 for a waffle baker was no easy decision. When It arrived I was thrilled with the overall look and quality of the unit, but the real test would be the first batch of waffles. WOW! I don't see how they could have been better. Two waffles every 3 1/2 minutes. Perfectly cooked. Clean up takes just seconds. KitchenAid did it again with a real winner.
Update Jan 2006 (one year later): Hundreds of waffles later this machine has not missed a beat. Perfect every time. Look no further, this is the one to buy.
