Pros: Wonderful iron that's easier to clean than most.
Cons: Heavy, large footprint, and hard to move/store.
The Bottom Line: Try one of these irons, and you'll never want to go back to a stationary one.
Review: What can be better? Sourdough waffles with real maple syrup? To me, even though pancakes and waffle batter is pretty much the same. I guess if you want to get technical, waffle batter usually calls for a little more oil. But to me, I want the... Read Full Review by mgbland, Jun 4, 2008
