NOTE: This review is for the now discontinued 26500Y model and is being used to promote the new model 26070 which is a completely different waffle maker. This unethical practice by Amazon makes a mockery of the review system. Shame on Amazon. Caveat emptor.
Well, we wanted waffles and that’s what we got with this waffle maker. It works as advertised. Nothing fancy here. Plug it in, make the batter and by the time you’re done mixing the batter, the ready light is off and you pour your first waffle. Takes about 4 minutes per waffle and they come out moist on the inside and crispy on the outside. And they don’t stick. I don’t use any spray or butter on the non-stick surfaces. So, we are happy with our waffles.
UPDATE 11/8/09: It’s been eight years and this waffle maker is still going strong. We use it about once a week and it has never failed to delight us with great waffles. And it’s easy to clean too.
UPDATE 8/12/12: Still working great although my doctor says I should cut back on the waffles. I don’t think so.

I’ve had this waffle maker for several years and it makes THE BEST waffles! They are crispy on the outside and melt in your mouth moist on the inside. It also is great for people who don’t have a lot of space in their kitchen. It stands upright for storage. Also, what makes this waffle maker rate above others is the fact that it is VERY easy to clean! Other waffle irons can be hard to clean because the batter will ooze out and into little hard to reach spots and then you have to wait for it to cool and try to wipe it out somehow. I’ve owned other waffle makers before that did this. There’s still dried out, old batter from places that were impossible to clean out! The Proctor Silex one does not have this problem. I practically don’t even have to clean it! After I’m done, I’ll wipe it gently with a paper towel, and that’s about it! This combined with the fact that the Proctor Silex waffle maker also makes better waffles than other brands makes this the best one on the market.

This is a great basic waffle iron. It does have an indicator light to tell you when it’s ready for the batter. I’ve seen other irons with timers or lights to indicate when the waffles are done, but I’ve used this one dozens of times and never burned a waffle yet. The non stick surface is easy to clean and the waffles turn out perfect, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I actually use this much more than I thought I would…the kids love them!
