I just purchased today and used for the first time this evening the Oster Flip Belgian Waffle Maker model 3874. Removing the product from the original packaging was a breeze, and simple instructions in the owners manual and easy to read diagrams made this a very quick and painless process from start to finish. from Amazon.com So I can't tell you how easy it is to clean up an overflow, and hope I never can. Also looked at the $80 flip brands and found they were no better at twice the price, and less convenient to store due to their size. Turn the Oster sideways and it slips into the cabinet with no problem. So it is good so far. from Amazon.com If you like waffles you need this device. I chose this device over the Presto 03510 Flip-side because this one had adjustable heat and didn't require a separate battery to operate the timer. Plus it is made by Oster (I'm sure you have their blenders in your kitchen like I do) and the flip function seemed more durable. You can't go wrong with this waffle maker. from Amazon.com I was never able to make waffles consistently until I stayed at a motel that had a flip-style wafflemaker at the breakfast buffet. I have been on the lookout for a consumer-grade model and this one suits just fine. The Oster Flip is sturdy, the non-stick griddles are non-stick and thick, it cooks thoroughly, the operation is straigthforward, and the waffles are thick, light and crisp on the outside. I made a batch of waffle mix using the standard recipe on Hungry Jack Complete Pancake mix, which adds oil and an egg to the "complete" mix, poured it into the Oster, flipped and watched for the Ready light to come back on and Voila! from Amazon.com The other device we tried made shallow waffles and didn't seem to cook all the way through. We had to let them sit for double the recommended time just to get something edible. The Oster flip allows us to make Belgian waffles just like the ones we've enjoyed at restaurants. These aren't like the tiny Kellogg waffles you buy at Walmart, these are deep large waffles that you can make a meal of. from Amazon.com it took approximately 15 minutes to remove, read directions on first time use, and cleaning the product before first use to get it ready for the first, experimental batch of waffle mix. from Amazon.com removing the product from the original packaging was a breeze, and simple instructions in the owners manual and easy to read diagrams made this a very quick and painless process from start to finish. from Amazon.com i too stayed at a hotel that had a similar waffle maker in the breakfast buffet and have since been trying to find a waffle maker that made the same crispy, yet fluffy waffles. from Amazon.com it will help you determine what texture you want in your waffles, whether you'd like them to turn out crispy versus soft, and temperature choice on the unit will help you achieve that. from Amazon.com i find that usually i have to bake the waffle a little longer to come up with a drier, crisper waffle, but that's ok with me. from Amazon.com
