A friend gave us an waffle iron because, like most people, she never used
hers. I had to mend the wiring a few times and noticed that the inside of it
was getting caked up with old oil that had solidified inside, close to the
heating element. I considered it to be a fire hazard and replaced it with a
new one. I looked high and low for one with the smaller grid but settles on a
Belgium waffle maker. It works great.
