Fine-grain cast iron
Cast iron top and bottom plates spread heat evenly; rims on the plates help keep batter from running over.
No clips or turning
The heavy top plate rises with the waffle and lets steam escape, so there is nothing to lock or flip.
Up to 570°F
Thermostatically controlled elements heat up fast and recover quickly; Equipex suggests baking at 425 to 475°F.
Independent controls
Each heating zone has its own on/off switch, thermostat and indicator lights.
Wraparound drip tray
A removable stainless steel drip tray wraps around the stainless steel base for easy cleanup.
