What is the best Waffle Maker?

Written By Unknown on Friday 31 May 2013 | 02:36

Have you ever imagine you've just woken up in the morning and you're walking down the stairs to grab a cup of coffee to wake you up. Just as you reach the kitchen, you can't help but get the beautiful aroma of freshly made blueberry waffles. Automatically, you tongue begins to trace the lines of your lips and the walk towards the kitchen door seems endless. Now before you get enticed into making waffles right this second, let me stop you right there. The reason I urged you get your mind jogging is because this actually did happen to me once and I felt like sharing this incident with you. But the point I'm trying to make here is that eating breakfast in the morning is very essential and when this breakfast has waffles as the main attraction, then you're going to find that your entire family is sitting on the breakfast table, waiting to be served. But for that, there's one thing you need to get - a waffle maker.

Learning to make waffles is easy. It doesn't require difficult steps and the actual cooking time is minimal. You can get fresh, hot waffles at the table in minutes, literally. Wouldn't it be wonderful that you and your family (or friends) could sit together, Sunday mornings, and have a nice family breakfast? And for that to happen, you need help from a quality waffle maker. In our article today, we will be looking at some of the waffle maker ratings and reviews. Take a look.

Reviews on Different Waffle Makers

While making waffles, many people think that pancake mix can be substituted. Actually this is a big mistake and that's where people think that the waffle maker is bad. So make sure that you follow the recipe perfectly and read the manual before using. Following are some of the best waffle makers you can find in the market. You can visit a local supermarket and browse through the appliance aisle for these waffle makers.

Black and Decker WBM500 Belgian Waffle Maker

The round Black and Decker waffle maker has a 7'' wide non-stick interiors that cuts the waffles in 4 sections. The machine has a chrome exterior that won't fade away and can be cleaned with a damp cloth. The good thing about this machine is that once it's heated and ready for use, it gives you a ready light signal. The same mechanism is used once the waffles are ready as well. The only issue I have with this machine is that there is only 1 heat setting. So when we wait for the light to go on, till then, the waffles are browner and more crispy. Now this can be an individual assessment of the machine as some people prefer their waffles this way. But if you want the waffles to be less crispier and light brown in color, you need to stay there and check occasionally. The price of this waffle maker is about US $30 to US $35, depending on where you make the purchase. All in all, I think it would be safe for me to say that I give this waffle maker 4.8 out of 5 stars.

If you would prefer a waffle maker with removable plates, then this brand has another waffle maker to your liking. The Black and Decker 3-in-1 Waffle Maker and Indoor Grill is the perfect choice.

Presto 03510 FlipSide Belgian Waffle Maker

This waffle maker has a 7'' wide non-stick interiors which is easy to cook on and clean later. It cuts the waffles in 4 sections, cooks them fast and even. The heating mechanism is good as it warms up quickly and makes waffles in about 3 minutes. As far as storing and cleaning goes, it can be set upright so not a lot of space is taken and if there is any batter spilled, a rubdown with a damp cloth is all you require. That was all pros about this small round waffle maker. The only con I can place are the plastic handles on the machine. But if you are careful with the machine, it doesn't really matter that much. The price of this waffle maker is about US $40 to US $45, depending on where you make the purchase. I give this waffle maker 4.5 out of 5 stars.

Cuisinart WMR-CA Round Classic Waffle Maker

This round waffle maker has 5 heat settings for better control over how little or how much you want the waffles to be brown. There are red and green lights which indicate when to bake and when the waffles are ready to be taken out. The interiors are non-stick so you don't need to worry about your waffles coming out wrong. For storage purposes, you can keep it upright so it doesn't take a lot of space in your kitchen. For cleaning, you can either hand wash them by hand or with a damp sponge. The price of this waffle maker is about US $25 to US $35, depending on where you make the purchase. I give this waffle maker 4.8 out of 5 stars.

Now you may be wondering that when I'm talking about finding a waffle maker, instead of listing just one (which means it is the best), why have I mentioned more. The reason is that every individual has specific requirements when it comes to choosing the waffle maker. Some prefer waffle maker with removable plates and some don't really care for that. Our objective here is to find a waffle maker that can cook food even and fast. With those criteria matched, you can have hot breakfast every morning rather than just weekends.
