I just got this waffle maker and love it. It makes large Belgian waffles that you can top off with fresh fruit such as blueberries. The nooks and crannies of the waffle keep the fruit in place.
I also froze one waffle for the next morning and toasted it in a toaster. I had to cut the waffle into four sections, and because it was so fat it barely fit in the wide-slot toaster I have. The waffle was also dry after toasting. Therefore, my recommendation is to make all your waffles fresh.
Although the waffle maker comes with a plastic measuring cup, I find that it's easier just to pour the batter directly onto the center of the waffle plate to about 3/4 full and then spread the batter out to the edge with a spatula, close the waffle unit, and flip it.
The waffle iron takes about 4 minutes to warm up for the first waffle of the batch and takes about 20 minutes to cool down before you can wipe it down.
I recommend using the recipes provided in the instruction book because the recipes you'll find on a box of waffle ingredients are for small waffles. For instance, I only got 1-1/2 waffles out of a recipe designed for 6 waffles. Unless the recipe is specifically for Belgian waffles, you'll find yourself short batter.
I read the other reviews and noticed about 40% of users complain the waffle maker fails to heat up or fails after a few uses. My boyfriend hasn't had that experience yet. He has this same waffle maker for over one year and has used it around six times without fail.
Since I just got this unit I cannot attest to it's longevity; however, if I should encounter a problem in the future, I will update my review. Therefore, be sure to check this post again if you are concerned. If all remains well, you will not see any updates.
As long as this waffle iron continues to work, this is a five start product that makes large delicious nicely tanned Belgian waffles fast!
4/13/09 Update - I've had this waffle maker for several months now and it's still going strong. I've used it over 14 times and the waffle recipe that comes with the produce is as delicious as always!
