We love Belgian waffles and finally, after considering all the possibilities, got around to getting a Belgian waffle maker, the Cuisinart WAF-100 4-Slice Belgian Waffle Maker. My regular waffle maker is round, and I was gravitating toward round for the Belgian. But the Cuisinart is a large square, giving you a lot more waffle each time (four 4.5-inch squares). Since it is so large, storage could be a problem; but they've made it so that it can be stored on its back edge with the lid locked in place and the cord neatly wound and out of the way.
In addition to the red and green indicator lights, it has an audible "ready" signal. So handy for those of us who get too distracted to notice the indicator lights! It looks good, is easy to use, makes great waffles, is easy to store and all that. The only thing they could improve is the 5-setting browning control. The sliding control is a bit wobbly, so you don't feel confident that it's really on the number you've selected.
The Cuisinart WAF-100 4-Slice Belgian Waffle Maker takes 2 cups of batter for each 4-slice waffle. I discovered that the recipe I had developed for regular waffles works just as well for Belgian waffles. It makes either six 7-inch round regular waffles or two of these, with no leftover batter. Any leftover waffle squares can be wrapped and refrigerated for the next day or frozen for a more distant day. They reheat beautifully for a quick breakfast on a busy day. No need to ever eat a store-bought frozen waffle again.
