Cuisinart is one of the top selling names when it comes to waffle makers because they give you 5 different models to choose from apart from a waffle and griddle multipurpose model. Not only do they give you more options, they are also very reasonably priced and although their controls are very simple, they are effective. You also get them in different sizes so finding one to suit your needs is very easy.
The stainless steel outer and the non-stick inner cooking plates are standard across the board for all waffle makers. Cuisinart is no different. The only thing with them is that although they have an impeccable finish, the first thing that you notice about them is that they don't have any of the fancy timers and settings that other manufacturers come out with. They are all very simply designed and are meant purely as work appliances. All of them have the rotary dials that have been time tested to be reliable, and the only lights you have are the ready and cooked ones. Their different models are reviewed below.

WAF-R traditional waffle maker
This model is a bigger version of their WMA-CR model although they look very different. It is only slightly bigger but costs a whole lot more so is not all that popular.
Cuisinart's strength lies in the fact that they give you good waffle makers that are very reliable. Many people who had purchased the more high tech ones found that they all conked off within a couple of years of use, while the Cuisinart is very reliable. Although it may seem to be a little more expensive than other simple ones in the market, you can usually get between 10 and 20% off on the price in most stores, which brings them down to one of the lowest costing ones in the market in their category. It may not have all the fancy flip features of some of them, but they work, and more importantly keeps working.
