My New L'Equip Waffle Iron

I have ordered an L'Equip waffle iron from a seller I saw on an online shop Qoo10. It cost me S$115 - quite an expensive item as compared to those normal waffle irons which cost less than S$50.

However, it is considered a good buy as it comes with many features to produce a good nice waffle:

Thick waffle
It can produce a spongy thick waffle of about 2 cm. My previous waffle maker can only bake a thin 1 cm thick waffle.

Even heating 
It produces waffle with an even golden crust.

Locking lid
The waffle iron has an automatic locking feature. You just need to turn 180 degree clockwise to lock the lid. This allows the expanding waffle to fill up all the gaps , thus producing a perfect shape waffle. It also prevent the expanding waffle from pushing up the lid and spill out.
To unlock the lid, just needs to turn 180 degree anti-clockwise.

Pour batter,

close the lid,

turn clockwise 180 degree to bake.

Crispness selection
The waffle allows the user to select the level of crispiness, from a scale of 1 to 4. 

Fast cooking time
It takes about 2 to 3 minutes to cook one waffle to level 3 of crispiness. 

Indicators lights
The Green indicator lights on both sides of the pan allow the user to observe the readiness of the waffle inside. The light goes off while cooking, and illuminated when ready. 

Easy storage
The iron can be kept in a upright position, thus minimize storage space.
 

Retractable legs
The legs can be open up and close for added stability and storage convenience.


I love this waffle iron. Now, I can have waffles any time I want :)
