The Chef'sChoice Belgian WafflePro is extremely fast - it bakes four deep-pocket, Belgian lace waffles in 90-120 seconds. With this waffle maker, you control the baking time and temperature. No need to flip - both sides cook at once, browning both sides evenly. Choose from a fast bake (for a crisp outside and moist interior) or slow bake (for a crunchy, uniform texture). The waffle maker is equipped with a "waffle ready" beeper and includes a countdown timer that starts the moment the batter is poured inside. The nonstick baking surface and overflow channel are easy to clean; the electric cord stores neatly underneath when not in use.
