Absolutely in line with what I expected. A super waffle both by that hesthétique by features. Waffles crispy outside and soft inside, a delight. The waffle iron is beautiful and fairly easy to store with its upright position and its magnetic board. His appearance gives an impression of solidity and robustness, to do with time. Tried waffles with sweet version and savory, perfect results for my taste and that of my guests. However, a board, not just the settings and cooking time recommended by the manufacturer, but to make his own tests to reach a cooking according to his taste. Personally, I usually rule the thermostat a notch lower than recommended even slightly increase the cooking time and it saves me from having the bottom of the waffle too browned. The only complaint one could make him is no timer. But nowadays everyone has one in his kitchen and its oven, a microwave, a smart phone ..... So it is absolutely not annoying. In conclusion I highly recommend it and without reservations, it is a bit expensive but it's worth !!!
