Cuisinart Waffle Maker 1250W Round Classic Waffle Iron 5-Setting Adjustable Browning Control WMR-CANAS Brushed Stainless

Works for me. I used it the same day it arrived. I made some waffles using the Birch Benders Keto mix for pancakes and waffles. I just sprayed some oil on the top and bottom of the grill and put a couple of tables spoons of mix on the bottom plate, closed the lid, waited for the light to turn green, and the waffle was cooked properly. No stick and no hassles. It's simple and it worked for me. I never cooked a waffle at home before. I need to get the mix better but the waffle iron is good. Read more

Exactly what I wanted and it works perfectly! The non-stick cooking surface is great and the waffles lift right out and it cleans up with just a wipe. Read more

I purchased this item about a year ago. I tried making a waffle, but it stuck so badly. Finally I got it all cleaned and decided to try other reviewers suggestions such as use pam spray before you pour your waffle mix and put oil in the waffle mix and it still didn't work. I never used the waffle iron again. The waffles stuck so bad that it was impossible to get it cleaned. I threw it away. Why did I give it five stars? Call me crazy, but I bought another one. I thought I would give it another try. It worked. It didn't stick at all. I Here is the trick to do when you first get this waffle iron. Like another reviewer said, I used the Pam spray before pouring the waffle batter and I also added vegetable oil to the waffle mix. On my first purchase I used the Pam and added oil to the waffle mix, but the waffles stuck. On my second purchase I did everything the same (used Pam and oil in the mixture), BUT I did something different. I put the waffle dial between 4 and 5. After I poured the waffle mix in, I waited for the green light to come on. Note: you get a green light when the waffle maker is ready for you to pour the mix in and once you do and close the lid it turns red and then will turn green again after awhile). So anyways, I poured my mixture in and waited until the green light came on. Do not peek to see if the waffle is ready. Once the green light comes on...DO NOT OPEN THE WAFFLE MAKER. Let it cook for a little while longer (I waited pretty long thinking that it is going to be burnt). Then open it up. You will have a thoroughly cooked (really crispy cooked waffle that does not look appetizing). The key is the first waffle is never to be eaten. First because it helps get the new smell, newly heated waffle iron out. Second, because you cooked the waffle so very long. But that is the key. By cooking it so long the first time is like seasoning the waffle iron. If you open it too early it will separate the waffle and it will stick. So be sure to make your first waffle the throw away waffle. On your second waffle, still use the Pam and put oil in the mixture. I put the dial between 3 and 4 and opened the waffle iron exactly when the light turned green. It came out wonderfully. My third waffle (on another day) I put oil in the mixture and didn't even bother using the Pam. It didn't stick at all and came out perfect. For those who are wondering what waffle mix I used thinking that would make a difference in if it sticks or not. I used the Krustez pancake mix. Though Krustez says to just add water. Make sure you put in oil. I used a good amount of oil the first three times because I was still nervous about it sticking. Now I use some oil. I hope this helps someone. Like I said, the first one I bought it stuck every time and I had to throw it away. The second one works great and I think it is because the first waffle was my throw away waffle and I made sure it was thoroughly cooked. Finally, I can have waffles again. If this review has helped you, please comment and let me know. Thanks. UPDATE: FROM READING THE COMMENTS TO MY PREVIOUS REVIEW IT SEEMS THERE IS A LITTLE CONFUSION ABOUT THE FIRST WAFFLE. I TOOK THE WAFFLE IRON OUT OF THE BOX AND I ONLY THREW AWAY THE VERY FIRST WAFFLE THE FIRST TIME I USED IT. EVERY OTHER WAFFLE AFTER THAT YOU EAT. WHEN YOU USE IT ON ANOTHER DAY, YOU DON'T HAVE TO THROW AWAY THE FIRST WAFFLE. YOU EAT THEM ALL. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE WAFFLE LOVERS....FOR THE LIFETIME OF THIS WAFFLE MAKER, ONLY ONE WAFFLE WAS SACRIFICED AND ALL THE OTHERS WERE EATEN. :) Read more

Very nice waffle maker. Heats up quickly. Doesn’t take much space. Stands on side for storage. it’s the perfect size. Makes great eggs and snd omelettes. The only downside is the outside surface gets very hot. Do not let kids use it. Read more

I'm surprised at how good this waffle maker is, especially considering the price. It has a lever to select how brown you like your waffles that works great. The maker itself is not of the best overall quality but not bad. It does a nice job of delivering the perfect waffle and very quickly too. No oil required, it's non-stick. I'm surprised at how quick it turns out a cooked waffle. It's easy to clean just wipe it out. Since we use it in our RV it has a very small footprint and can stand vertically for storage. All in all, I think this is a great buy and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting a simple straight forward waffle maker that works well and doesn't take up a lot of space. Read more

I really like this waffle maker. It was affordable and functions very well. It cooks quickly, cleanly, and consistently. The temperature settings let you cook your waffles to a desired doneness. Great buy! Read more

Simple, but works great! There’s almost nothing that can break on it. Read more

This waffle maker makes the perfect size waffles and unlike those thick Belgian waffles, these are the "thinner" classic waffles I remember my mom making for us kids back in the 70's. I absolutely love this waffle maker but it has its flaws. It falls apart fairly quickly. Specifically, the plastic black square on the top of the waffle maker breaks off after about a year or two of use. It still works when that happens but some of the wires are exposed so not exactly safe or ideal. The temperature knob also seems to be worthless after about a year of regular use. It seems to have one temperature - high heat - which is exactly what you want anyway for waffles so not a deal breaker. There is also a lot of play with the temperature knob. You can move it back and forth but you can feel it's not actually changing the temperature because you don't feel it "catching." We use this waffle maker at least once a week so it gets a workout, but because of the flaws I mentioned, we end up buying a new one every couple of years. I just bought it again and after having purchased it back in 2021 and 2023. I'm not thrilled about that but thankfully it's still pretty cheap so dropping $25 or so every couple of years isn't the end of the world. Read more
