5.0 out of 5 stars Best Waffle Maker I’ve Used – Quick, Easy, and Reliable!

I’ve owned a few over the years, and my previous one ended up at the tip because the waffles constantly stuck and it was a nightmare to clean. This one is a huge improvement — nothing has stuck so far! I sometimes need to use a spatula to gently lift the waffle out, but I’ve never had to scrape one off and throw it away.It’s relatively easy to clean, and the plastic drip tray underneath is a great touch. I’m still figuring out the perfect amount of batter to avoid overflow, but that’s part of the fun. One of the best features is how quickly it cooks — I don’t have to wait around for ages! The red and green lights are really helpful and accurate, letting me know exactly when my waffle is ready.Highly recommended!

Good for the price; only thing it’s quite wobbly but doesn’t affect the use

This really is a superb item and better than expected. I thought it would end up at the far depths of a cupboard after one use - but no. Easy to use; success every time; brilliant idea of a rotating plate, not only for cooking, but also for storing. All in all, a fab bit of kit 👍🏼

The media could not be loaded. Definitely worth the money, quick and easy to use, heats fast, easy to clean afterwords , takes a little space when folded for storage, like the flip design, only used twice but looks like it’s made good,

4.0 out of 5 stars I Do Like To Waffle... Quick & Easy To Use With Good Non-Stick Capability

M.C. · 6 June 2025

This waffle maker from Bella makes for a fun breakfast or pudding treat. It feels well made at this price point and I like that the handle folds, presumably in an attempt to help with storage when put away.The instructions are OK. They are pretty wordy but I managed to follow them and in actual fact the cooking process is very easy.To summarise...- Switch the machine on at the plug- Set the desired browning level with the rotary dial- Wait until the cooking temperature is reached- Open and pour in batter mixture- Close the lid- Rotate the waffle head 180 degrees and wait until the "Ready" light goes on- Rotate back and open up to get your cooked waffle.It actually was surprisingly quick to cook as well and I found the non-stick capabilities are great, with the cooked waffle lifting out without any issues. The included drip tray also did its job and caught the drips that oozed out as I slightly overfilled on the first waffle.One thing to note, and it is mentioned in the instructions, is that on first use there is a strong smoky smell, but this is apparently normal and should go with continued use.What I also found was that there wasn't much difference between medium brown and dark brown on the batch of waffles I made the first time around. This may be down to my batter mixture, but I quite like my waffles crispy and even at the max setting, they were still soft. Maybe a bit more batter experimentation is required but for now that's the only reason I've reduced this to a four star review.Once you've finished cooking you can't wash any part of the machine other than the removable drip tray, so I found a quick wipe, (once it's cooled obviously), with a damp cloth cleaned it up well enough.Overall this was a big success in my house and my kids loved the waffles which we served with strawberries and maple syrup or alternatively, chocolate spread with strawberries.

Easy to use waffle maker, very pleased with the results. Kids love the homemade waffles. Easy to clean when we keep the plates oiled.

5.0 out of 5 stars Safe to use due to handle

C. · 6 June 2025

I bought this as my previous waffle maker was not safe as it had no handles. Great product. Lights up when on, can turn upside down, can make just one quarter of waffle if preferred, has a safe handle, has a tray to catch any overspill of ingredients. Easy to clean. I love it.

It now works!

Bought several weeks ago, only now using and return window gone. Waste of money.I have now given 4 stars. After leaving it for a few days, I tried it again and wow - it worked! It heated up and cooked a perfect waffle! I don't know what the problem was at the beginning, but it now seems to have corrected itself. All's well that ends well!
