bella Classic Rotating Belgian Waffle Maker with Nonstick Plates, Removable Drip Tray, Adjustable Browning Control and Cool Touch Handles, Stainless Steel

This is a pretty awesome waffle iron, does it perfectly

I got this as a gift. Was worried, as I bought a Bella toaster, which was defective. But I LOVE this waffle maker! (And so does every one I share with). It’s easy to prepare, use, clean, and store in my camper. I tried the basic recipe, included. It was good! But at over a mile altitude, I have a “go to” recipe. Just add stuff. I cook by eye, not lights, or timer. The photo is the first ever batch; bacon cheddar waffles. Crispy outside, fluffy inside. No syrup necessary.

Works very well, but I’m deducting a star because cleanup isn’t as easy as it’s made out to be. I’d much prefer removable, washable griddle plates. Cleaning them while they’re attached to the machine isn’t ideal. To prevent anything from hardening, you have to clean it while it’s still hot, which isn’t convenient. But if you wait for it to cool down, there are too many nooks and crannies where batter gets stuck, and it takes some effort to clean thoroughly.

I wasn’t sure if the flip feature actually mattered - but after using it, it absolutely does. I’ve used a few waffle makers over the years, and this one is easily one of the most convenient and consistent I’ve tried. I tested it making multiple waffles back-to-back, and it handled everything really well. The biggest standout is how evenly it cooks. Because it flips, the batter distributes evenly across both plates, so you don’t get raw centers or overcooked edges. Each waffle came out crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, exactly what you want. It’s also fast — once preheated, each waffle cooked in under 3 minutes. I was able to make breakfast for my family of four in about 15 minutes total without any issues. ✅ What works well: -Adjustable browning control (light → dark) -Even cooking from the flip design Fast cook time (under 3 minutes per waffle) -Indicator lights for power, preheat, and doneness -Removable drip tray catches overflow (very helpful) -Can be stored vertically to save space -Works with: Homemade batter Box mixes Just-add-water mixes 🧪 Real-life use: I used about 1 cup of batter per waffle, flipped immediately after locking, and let it cook until the ready light came back on. Each waffle released cleanly with a light spray of oil and didn’t stick. You only need to preheat once, so making multiple waffles in a row is quick and easy. ⚠️ What to know: -The plates are NOT removable, so cleaning has to be done by wiping them down (best while still warm, not hot) -Oil and add-ins (like chocolate chips or berries) can build up if not cleaned after each use ⭐️Tips: -You cannot open the waffle maker while it’s flipped (safety feature) -If you want a darker waffle, just close the lid again and let it cook longer Bottom line: This is a fast, easy-to-use waffle maker that delivers consistent results. The flip design actually makes a difference, and the cooking speed makes it great for fast breakfast option.

Love this little waffle iron!!! It is a budget friendly quality Belgium waffle iron . My husbands uses it almost daily for his breakfast. It makes delicious waffles with crispy edges. It’s easy to clean with just a wipe down

Works great right out of the package. Easy to use and clean up. The whole family is very happy that I make waffles more often since this purchase! I may even buy another to gift to my grown children.

Heats and cooks batter efficiently, how the pan no longer locks into place, it spins around even when lifting the lid to remove waffle or pouring the batter you have to hold it upright. Cheap design flaw.

I’ve been really happy with this Bella rotating waffle maker. It heats up quickly and the rotating design actually makes a difference—you get evenly cooked waffles that are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside every time. Cleanup is easier than I expected too. The nonstick plates do their job, so nothing really sticks or gets baked on. I just wipe it down once it cools and it’s good to go. I also like that it feels sturdy without taking up a ton of counter space. It doesn’t feel cheap, but it’s still easy to store if you don’t leave it out all the time. The rotating feature is what sets it apart though. You can tell it helps distribute the batter evenly, especially if you like thicker Belgian-style waffles. Overall, solid little appliance for the price. Makes weekend breakfasts feel a bit more “coffee shop at home” without much effort.

Worst experience someone returned the used product and the sell haven't seen it and it was with oil and food traces and smell

I bought this one based on the reviews alone. Even though it said the ready timer was not accurate, which it isn't, it doesn't matter. All of the comments were bang on ...... 7 minutes and done! no more, no less. They were absolutely perfect. Best waffles i've ever had. I would take these over my homemade pancakes any day. This waffle iron is PERFECT! Easy to clean, easy to use....just awesome!

Price is good, does the job but don’t expect it to be great. It doesn’t get hot enough so after it’s done ( I purposely left it longer), you will still need to put it in your toaster oven to bake it longer otherwise it will not be crispy. Overall this is pretty good for the price but if you are looking for more professional or better waffles quality, you will need to look elsewhere.

Se percibe buena calidad en los materiales. Le doy 4 estrellas porque no logra dorar bien los waffles aunque esté en el máximo.

This is the best waffle maker I have ever owned! The “ready” timer is not the most accurate in telling you when the waffle is ready so that is something that you have to figure out on your own over time, and you can leave it in longer when needed. The handle can be folded in for easier storage. Easy to clean.
