The Cons: The unit really makes just one average-sized waffle at a time. The diameter of the waffle is quite small, about 6"/15cm, and they are quite thin, perhaps 1/2-2/3 the thickness of a standard waffle and 1/3 the thickness of Belgian waffle (about 1/3"/7mm). Cooking them is really a continuous process, with no breaks for the chef to sit down and eat. You have to attend the unit essentially constantly, either pouring in batter or taking out a completed waffle because they are so small and cook so quickly. (Depending on your point of view, a con is that it's made in China. That being said, you'd be hard-pressed to find a small kitchen electronic gadget that isn't at the moment.)
General impressions: It's certainly well-constructed and works as advertised. You need to read between the lines a bit to really understand what you are getting. The amount of batter it accepts, about one generous scoop of a 2oz-capacity ladle, is the amount I would use for one pancake on a griddle. This really does mean that you have to cook continuously or make them in batches ahead before people sit down to eat. For one or two people, it would be OK. For more people or hungry children, it gets a little hard to keep up. I preferred the results from the longer time setting, which produces a less cake-like waffle closer in structure to what most people have seen from other waffle irons. If you left it in for a longer time, you would get a crispier waffle that would be really excellent for a dessert application.
Would I recommend it? Well, it depends on how you want to use it. If you want to turn out waffles for your family of six on a Saturday morning, then no. This unit won't keep up. If it's for one to three people or you're looking to make waffles for a dessert, then sure, you'll get attractive and tasty results in a unit that easy to use and clean.
You can buy a waffle a lot worse than this one. I certainly have!
I did my homework. I checked out equipment reviews on Cooks Illustrated and read all of the reviews for every non-Belgian waffle iron here on Amazon. This Chef's Choice M840 won the day. Here are the reasons why I hate it and am sentencing it to Goodwill after only a week and two waffle-making attempts.
1. It's extremely easy to overfill. After a few attempts at calibrating the pour, I started to get it right. BUT see #2.
2. It's virtually impossible to clean. No part of this waffle iron is detachable nor can any of it be put under water. As a result, when the buttery batter oozes all over the machine, there is no way to get it out of the cracks and crevices of the machine. In addition, little crumbs linger in the clover-shaped iron plates and, short of getting out my vacuum cleaner to remove them, they were still there the second time I used the machine. Ick!
3. As another reviewer pointed out, the paint is very cheap. On the first paper-towel rubdown (I cannot in good conscience call it a cleaning), the paint for the directional copy rubbed off.
4. (This is a good point.) The waffles cook fast. (BUT, see #6.)
5. (This is another good point.) The maker has a "ding" to notify you when the waffle is done.
6. (This is the death sentence.) It makes really skinny waffles. (I'm not talking about the clover shape. I'm talking about the depth of the waffle.) Belgian waffles for us are about two times too thick for us. On the other hand, these waffles were about half as thick as the ones we've come to think of as "normal". It's OK when you eat them straight from the waffle-iron; however, after freezing and reheating in a toaster oven, they have the consistency of crackers.
I'm so sad.

I am very impressed!
Fast. Easy to use. Has an overflow moat. Clear directions in the included manual. Alert sounds to indicate completion, green light to indicate element is ready, red light to indicate it is cooking.
I simply love this product and I feel it is very reasonably priced~ especially with some near $200 or more....
Wonderful service by Amazon.
