Overview
A steam-release system lets moisture escape from this Krups Belgian waffle maker so the inside stays fluffy and the outside crisp. Removable nonstick plates come out for washing, and indicator lights plus a beep signal when it is ready.
Making several waffles at once with deep pockets is the reason to look at it, and the plates lift out for cleaning. The limitation is size, along with conflicting care advice that mentions both dishwasher-safe parts and wiping with a cloth.
Who it's for
Households that make waffles for several people at weekend breakfasts will use the family-size layout. Singles, couples and cooks with limited storage should choose a smaller iron.
Pros and cons
- Removable nonstick plates
- Adjustable browning levels
- Audible ready beep
- Deep pockets hold toppings
- Long and heavy on the counter
- Care advice is inconsistent
- Plate diameter not listed
Performance notes
Heat from the plates sets the batter, and steam escaping through the release system dries the surface for a crisp crust while the interior stays soft. Browning level changes the cooking time, and preheating until the green light shows stops the first waffle from coming out pale.
