Best Value: Presto 03510 FlipSide Belgian Waffle Maker ($40, rated 90/100)

The Presto takes up little counter space, and it features a countdown timer, digital display and a rotating design to perfectly bake a 7-inch waffle.

"It makes nice and hard (crisp) waffles with a very soft interior… the waffles always come out fantastic." --brianrecaro

"It makes the best waffles at a fraction of the cost of most other 'flip' style waffle makers." --glennmichele98

"It heats up fast, cooks fast, and cleans easy. What more could anyone ask for in a waffle maker, other than having it mix the batter and clean itself?" --KatiSteiner

Best High-End Waffle Maker: KitchenAid Pro Line Series Waffle Baker ($200, rated 89/100)

The KitchenAid comes with a 2-year unconditional guarantee. While it's more difficult to store, users enjoy the sturdy design and reliability. It also produces two 7.5-inch waffles, 1.25 inches thick.

"The best feature in my opinion is that it will make two waffles in under 5 minutes." --boobean18

"I've had basic waffle makers in the past and I really don't regret investing in this … I only wish I'd bought it sooner!" --Stefany85

"The KitchenAid Pro Line is the BEST waffle maker I've ever owned." --MikeTheresa
