The Double Belgian Waffle Maker

This waffle maker was rated The Best by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute because it consistently produced perfectly cooked waffles and was easy to use. The substantial chef’s-grade appliance has dual grid surfaces within its rotating clamshell to bake two 71/2"-diam. Belgian waffles at once. During testing both waffles came out evenly baked—golden and crispy on the outside and moist in the middle—without the burnt or raw spots found in the waffles made with lesser models. The Best model’s nonstick plates made it easy to remove cooked waffles, and its handles remained cool to the touch, unlike the scalding handles on lesser units. The Best Waffle Maker indicates when it is preheating, ready for batter, and when the waffles are ready. If a crispier texture is desired, the unit tracks any additional time so users know how long to cook the next batch. Includes auto shut-off mechanism and cleanup brush. Plugs into AC. 16 1/3" L x 10 1/3" W x 9 1/3" D. (18 lbs.)
