Cuisinart - Belgian Waffle Maker with Pancake Plates - Brushed Stainless Steel

I love that I can take the plates out to clean them. Waffles don't stick and come out great. Also the larger waffle sizes are great for a family.

Well built but it creates spotty browning of waffles. And the pancake griddles make pancakes that are really small - so it's useless unless you are into silver dollar pancakes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good weight to it. Plates are easy to change out. Like the variable temperate settings. Stands very nicely when put away.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this waffle maker to replace our previous 10 year old Cuisinart double waffle maker that we just plain wore out! We have several Cuisinart items in our home that we just love because they make life so much easier especially when our Grand children come over for a visit! We've yet to have an issue with our Cuisinart appliances because they're so easy to use and they prepare everything perfectly! We recommend them to all of our friends and Family!

The Breakfast Central has some positive and some negative features. I purchased it to replace my Krups Waffle Maker that I had for years. The positive features are that the unit has the two sets of plates, one for waffles and one for pancakes. The plates are easy to install and clean. The most negative feature is the rim of the plates protrude from the top and bottom of the unit even when the lid is closed. You have to be careful not to get burnt even if the lid is closed. Unfortunately, I got burnt the first time I used it. On my old waffle maker, that also had removable plates, the plates were set in and therefore, were not exposed when the waffle iron was in use. The Breakfast Central makes cute pancakes and waffles, please note they tend to be smaller than other square waffle makers.The pancakes tend to be less done on one side even when fully cooked. They don't look perfect but taste fine. It is convenient to be able to make four pancakes at one time. I would recommend this unit if you don't mind the negative features. On the positive side, it is easy to store in the upright position and the unit is lighter to lift than the older heavier waffle makers. The Breakfast Central all in all has been working fine since I adjusted to it. I have had it for about two months now.
