Frank,

This review is from: Waring WMK600 Double Belgian-Waffle Maker (Kitchen)
After reading all the issues with flip waffle makers I was rather hesitant to purchase one. I was originally looking at the Warring 300 (single unit) but having heard issues with the hinge, i decided not to. Upon looking at this double unit, I feel the hinge is definitely better and purchased it.
I typically use Bisquik for my waffles. Nothing all that fancy. I seasoned the iron with vegtable oil. The first time i filled the included cup, spread it out and it slightly spilled out - not much at all. I had the unit set for 4.5 since we prefer crispy waffles. I flipped the unit and poured in slightly less. I flipped it again. Oddly enough, the second pour was on the bottom and was done first. It came out a bit dark but more than usable. It stuck a bit. Poured more in and the first pour was done. It was lighter. Moral here, quantity is just as important as temp setting. Once I figured it out, all were golden brown. Later we preferred the temp at setting 4. Also, I can see why some of the hinges can fail on flip units. AS the batter puffed up, it can put strain on the hinge possibly damaging it. My suggestion is to use less mix at first and creep up to full with your mix so you can determine the right amount to use that will not stress it. I had the top waffle pop the top open so I can see how it could stess the hinge. I gave this a 4 our of 5 because I hate the fact that there is no indicator on the handles which way to turn it. I ended up putting a silver sharpie arrow on each to indicate which direction it will turn freely in. I think some could damage the unit if forced to turn in the wrong direction. Also, I found that you had to be particular how you took the waffle out. If taken out by a dividing line or not causes them to stick more easily. I did find that sticking was lessened the more I used it. I seasoned per the instructions but set it up on #6 temp setting during seasoning. It could be I need a bit more oil in the mix, too. To me this is a real keeper. The waffles are crispy and delicate within. The outer crispy layer is thin real nice. I had a 10+ year old cuisinart before and it made the crispy layer a bit too think. this is much thicker and better. I would recommend it to everyone. this unit is 1400 watts.

This waffle maker makes the best waffles ever! They are large and you can make 2 at once. Machine is easy to use, beeps when it has heated to the correct temperature, add your batter and it beeps again when the waffles are ready. Simple and DELICIOUS!!!

Waffle Patern not the same as the WMK300,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Waring WMK600 Double Belgian-Waffle Maker (Kitchen)
This review is the result of many frustrating hours of waffle making using the WMK600. I have used the WMK300 and WMK300a for several years with great success. I purchased the WMK600 to handle times when I had guests. After close inspection, I noticed the WMK600 waffle maker doesn't have the same waffle pattern as the wmk300 or wmk300a. The WMK600 Waffle pattern is smaller and requiring more batter then the WMK300. Also the 600 only has 200 more watts to cook the two waffles.. As a result the waffles takes longer to cook and it is a challenge to have golden brown waffles which are fully cooked on the inside. The WMK 600 doesn't have sufficient wattage to cook 2 waffles at the same time. You will find that the cooking times increases dramatically compared to the wmk300, this decreases the quality of your waffle. It may work with the traditional American recipes, but if you want to cook traditional Belgium waffles, which are very light and crispy. Bottom line the waffle iron doesn't provide enough heat/wattage. The single waffle maker wmk300 or wmk300a still has the better waffle pattern (larger squares) and providing better heat transfer to the batter. The WMK600 has only 1400 watt and doesn't produce enough to cook 2 waffles at the same time.
