I never used to like waffles and never saw a need for a waffle iron, that is until I had Belgian waffles recently! I know I am late to the party but Belgian waffles are wonderful! So, in my quest to be able to enjoy these delights at home, I went on a search for a good Belgian waffle iron.
I read so many reviews and settles on this one because of the excellent reviews, as well as the small size of the appliance.
I forgot to buy waffle mix while at the store so I just used the recipe in the book that came with the Oster Flip to make my very first batch of waffles. I was surprised to see cornstarch as one of the ingredients but it said that cornstarch makes the waffles crispier. I made the waffles batter as directed and sprayed the waffle iron with Pam since this was my first usage of it. I set the temperature about 3/4 of the way, poured in the batter after the green light came on and flipped it over. After a few minutes, the green light on the bottom (which is now on top since it is flipped) came on and my waffles were done! I flipped it back and opened the lid and was very pleasantly surprised by the beautiful golden brown waffles that awaited me! Somehow, I had poured the correct amount of batter into the maker on the very first try and they were perfect! Unfortunately, the second batch I made, I kinda over did it with the batter and had some seep out. But, thanks to the drip plate that comes with the maker, it was very easy to clean up the drippings. I ended up making 4 batches of waffles and they all were a nice golden brown and smelled delicious!
Since it is just my husband and myself, I put the extra waffles in a freezer bag and put them in the freezer. Having lived in Pennsylvania for many years, I used the other waffles to serve my husband my Pennsylvania Dutch Chicken and Waffles! Previously, I had used those frozen things that are advertised as waffles and it seemed so wrong to use them with such a good recipe! The waffles I made in my brand new Oster Flip Waffle Maker were delicious and perfect for my chicken stew! They were so nice and crispy on the outside (thank you cornstarch!) and soft and tender in the inside! And they are so nice and thick, with deep pockets that the chicken gravy could fill. I noticed that the waffles did not get soggy and were crispy throughout the meal! It was the best dinner of Chicken and Waffles I have ever had!
The next morning, I decided to see how well the frozen waffles held up. I took two and put them in our toaster oven on the toast setting. I set it on very brown setting and turned it on. When the buzzer went off, the waffles were hot and browned a little darker than when I put them in. I put some berries and whipped cream on the waffles and dug in. The waffles were soooo good!! Once again, they were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Freezing the waffles didn't affect the taste or texture in any way. The only suggestion I would make is to maybe cook them to a lighter brown if you are planning on freezing them to allow them to finish browning in the toaster oven.
As others have said, the Oster Flip Waffle Maker is very compact and doesn't take up much room on the counter. I like that it is narrow and not very tall so that I can fit it into one of my cabinets.
I really like this waffle maker and plan to use it often! I found a great website that gives you other ideas of things to make in a waffle iron. Check it out: http://www.listotic.com/23-things-you-can-cook-in-a-waffle-iron/ I can't wait to try the waffle brownies! :)

Pretty waffles after you get the label off
This appliance is very easy to use and has made probably 60 waffles for our family. Waffles are thick, and we use a regular pancake mix with no problem. We do spray non-stick spray on both sides before we cook the first waffle. Cleanup i relatively easy. The worst part by far was simply getting the label off the top of the appliance! It did not peel off, did not wash off. I had to scrub it for 20 minutes using a citrus-based adhesive remover, which was a little infuriating. It would be easy to use a cling, not a sticker! Besides that, I highly recommend, and the price was great.
