Easy to use - I found the indicator lights and ready signal great help in making the perfect waffle - and easy to clean this item can help you start your day on a great and tasty note! If you use recipes with oats and whole grain and then add fruit and peanut butter you can also start your day on a healthy note as well! It is easy to see Cuisinart put a lot of time and attention into design, detail and function so they could develop a waffle maker that would work extremely well. Tremendously well done!
