Looking like a chrome handbag from the 1940s, the DeLonghi Retro Belgian Waffle Maker is gorgeous and sleek. But the beauty is more than skin deep, because it is also a hard-working appliance. High-polished chrome with softer, brushed accents, the waffle maker will make a statement in any stylish kitchen. And in addition to the waffles for which it was ultimately designed, it can also be used for grilled sandwiches and other toasted and griddled delights. Two features highlight this versatility. First, an adjustable hinge offers two different height levels, so the lid can close tightly for waffles or remain more widely open for thick panini. Secondly, the WR25 comes with a set of reversible plates; each has a nonstick flat griddle side, as well as the traditional deep-pocket waffle forms.
To select the desired degree of browning, there's an adjustable thermostat dial. A green ready light illuminates when the griddle has reached the desired temperature, followed by 6 beeps announcing that the griddle plate's ready to receive the waffle batter. The green light will go off when the latch is closed and baking begins; when the two 4-by-4-1/2-inch waffles are ready, it will light back up, accompanied by three beeps. When cleaned and ready to put away, the snug safety latch allows for space-saving vertical storage.
To clean the metal casing, use only a warm, damp cloth; dry with a soft towel. Clean plates with a damp cloth and a nonabrasive cleanser; never use any sharp or pointed implements to scrape plates. Always unplug device before cleaning it. DeLonghi waffle makers are not immersible. The WR25 measures 10 by 10 by 5 inches, including handle and feet. DeLonghi guarantees its waffle irons with a limited one-year warranty. A list of DeLonghi service locations is included. --Garland Withers
